Oh geeze another moral lecture.
WE are not the boys and WE cannot get it done, but I hope our guys win.
I love UK, and enjoy talking basketball with UK fans. There's no better place to do it than here. Unfortunately it sometimes results in me being scolded for having a belief that differs from the majority as seen in this thread, but the good of Rupp Rafters far outweighs the bad. The people here aren't horrible, they are great. Some just have short fuses. The beauty is that while I disagree with some in this thread, I can jump in another thread with them, discuss a completely different topic, and we may agree 100%. Passionate fans, different opinions, and varying topics are the very reason sports forums exist, and that's what makes them great.
It's a shame we have a segment of this fan base that buys into the media version of our fan base. I am also baffled at how our boys and coach are nothing but respect, and on the other hand, others are completely disrespectful, but it's UK people we all need to worry about?
Grow a set of balls. Think for yourself.
I get into it with people in one thread and agree in another with no issue. If you take the internet personal in any form, you shouldn't be on this board. But of course, that has nothing to do with buying into a narrative that I believe doesn't exist for the most part.
OP not attaching you in any way...but you have probably been around here long enough to know if you miss spell a word or screw up a name in the heat of the moment.
The clowns come out, it's called safe internet zone....no ID required
IF .... we will NOT but just IF we lose this place will have stuff going on that the media will be taking notes on.
You will see posters names that we have not seen in a long time...they have been laying in wait

Op, you must be new around here. Your never going to get faceless Internet guy to show any sportsmanship. Also, stay out of pissing matches because nobody wins, it's just two dudes trying one up each other to create a 60 page thread lol. Good luck
Let me just recap my original post here so I can get a better understanding of what all this backlash about.
1. I hope we are gracious either in victory or defeat.
2. I think ND is a great team, plays a style that could be effective against us, but likely lacks the size to finish the job.
3. I respect ND players, coach, and fans.
4. I think UK wins by 14.
Now which part of that does everyone have such a problem with? Is it just that I made a post asking for something when I hold no authority over anyone on here? Is it the manner in which it was presented that was wrong? Is it the appearance that I'm bracing for a loss despite predicting a 14 point win that everyone is upset about?... I'm just wondering there is actually any material in the post that is pissing everyone off, or if it's just the fact that I brought up us potentially getting beat that made everyone edgy?
What I'm getting at is that while I won't apologize for the things I believe (the four points I listed), I will apologize if I presented them in a manner that was insulting.
Op, I know you feel like your stranded on a desert island surrounded by horny fat chicks, but defending your original opinion against everyone except a few won't help. Just agree to disagree and let it go.
Let me explain something to you....Seriously, pay attention here:
Regarding the rest of the country, being a Wildcat fan is the same as being from Kentucky. In other words, no matter how we act, or how gracious we are, or how classy we are, the rest of the country will always think of us as loser, inbred, uneducated morons. Get that in your head and remember it. It will probably never change. If we acted perfectly for 100 years, I can assure you that on the first day after 100 years, the rest of the country would still think we are Hillbilly idiots.
It is what it is, and you either accept it and realize the rest of the country is actually full of idiots the same as Kentucky, or you choose to fight an un-winnable battle against the stereotype.
Personally, I say let the chips fall where they fall. I have better things to do than to try and conform and perform for the rest.
That is a great post. I can't disagree with anything you said... We'll call it a thread and enjoy the rest of the night. Enough bickering, we all want the same thing tonight. GO CATS!
