This post is such bullshit. Cal is anything but easy on Andrew. And if he is soft on him at all, trust me, the rest of Blowhard Blue Nation makes up for it.Originally posted by JHB4UK:
It is awkward. he will dogcuss Towns up & down, call Marcus Pee a lazy sack of ish, but seemingly has to treat 5 with fluffy gloves. feels like we could have 4 other guys be lights out & go for 20 each, and the first words out of his mouth postgame will be "boy, Andrew sure was great".Originally posted by anthonys735:
He will get on him a bit but he's really quick to praise him to the point I think it gets a little awkward. But you know how he's crazy protective.
can't complain about the results, if what it takes is him to be protected and cradled in order for us to slam a championship banner up then so be it. but what is this young man gonna do when he leaves the protective cocoon of Cal and plays professional basketball somewhere next season. not sure this act is doing 5 any favors for life after UK.

No. Then we would have lost, given up the Craft Center/ Rupp to Duke, got raped pillaged and started platooning for IU.Originally posted by drxman1:
Comparing a slow and methodical style to fast and aggressive one, no, it really shouldn't make sense-to anyone.
Maybe if you had said like a "French tank battalion of WWII." That would have been a slow and methodical style.

Tanks are slow and methodical dumbass, regardless of whatever you want to say about Patton. You really are terrible.
I was thinking more compared to the war in the air not to other tank groups. But I didn't drink a frappuccino in my hot tub this morning. Empty the coffee out of your cup and fill it with hot tub water.
Nice try to spin your way out of this one dumb ass. By your own admission you don't even watch war movies because they "disturb" you. How do you know tanks are slow and methodical? Have you changed the HVAC units in any tanks around here? Christ, a Sherman tank could probably go faster than most cars on New Circle Rd right now.
Wishing you a big bag of spiders. Fist yourself.
* Indeed, which is why cawood's "I TOLD YOU ALL THAT TOWNS WAS THE KEY TO THE SEASON" take was so garbage. This team is so stacked/loaded, we don't have a "key" to the season. We have, like, 17 keys. We can shoot lights out and win, or go ice cold from deep and still blow you out. Charmin soft d, get killed on the boards, poor guard play, foul trouble, piss poor from the charity stripe, get nothing from our bigs......and still walk away with a double-digit victory. It's amazing. This team has won so many games, at such wide margins, in about every way imagineable.Originally posted by IsRichieGonnaStart:
- The margin of error with this team is so wide. Said it all year.
Good stuff, thanks.Originally posted by IsRichieGonnaStart:
Cal is the master psychologist. He's one of the very few coaches in the country who can not only recruit the elite level players but tear their heads off in practice and in the games and they trust him enough knowing he's got their back overall so they play their ass off for the man.
Here's a suggestion, blowhards. What you see on your couch isn't the entire picture. Cal rides Andrew just as much or more than anyone in practice and in games but realizes it's a give/take so he builds him up in public, especially after our dumbass fans took Goodman's bait back in December.
The kid will never be an electric point guard and we were led to believe he was along the lines of a Wall or Knight, and that's part of the problem. He's a solid game manager who can shoot it respectively, nail free throws, is a good passer and doesn't turn it over much. His defense has improved tremendously as well.

Always hate to see this. Means the end of the season is near. Next thing you know, we'll be stuck in that interminable, 5 month chasm between the end of CBB season and the beginning of CFB season.Originally posted by PTI (pti):

The pep cheesy bread is in FACT unreal. You get 10 pieces for under $5.Originally posted by IsRichieGonnaStart:
Jet's deep dish turbo crust is very similar to Lil Caesar's deep dish.
Good stuff.
Wodie was explaining to me before the game on Sat his special Lil Caesar's orders. It was kind of impressive. That pep bread sounds unreal.
Usually a light lunch eater during the work week unless taking a client or realtor out for lunch but man, with this weather and all I could destroy something like a Hot Brown or double cheeseburger right now.
Yup. Wife and I tried to go Monday during SNOW DAY!!! and they were closed.Originally posted by SAECATFAN:
Rocky's (next to the Buckheads at Gardiner Lane Shopping Center) doesn't have a bad little za for the price-point, folks. Decent salads, too. We enjoy.
