Gretzky was the best, but "Moose" was the definitely the most badass.
Coolest of the cool, a stone cold killer, and my favorite hockey player of all-time.

Janet was no slouch.
Can you find the Bunny? Every cover has one hidden somewhere , which I assume everyone already knows.
May be in the minority on this but IU is our biggest rival. Mom’s side has a lot of IU fans so grew up hating them.
Wish we would play them in every sport. Hell, go play in Lucas field and split it 50/50 the way it used to happen at the old RCA dome.

it would take anyone ten minutes living on the Tennessee line to change their mind on that

I grew up in Harlan county so super close. Dad’s side is all Tennessee fans. I get it…they are miserable.
And we used to play IU in everything.
-80's and early-mid 90's, IU was absolutely our biggest rival. Some of y'all may be too young to remember and/or have let uavel fans convince you they're important enough to matter...possibly due to proximity.
^I'd love to say ut, but we didn't hold up our end on the gridiron.

They were our biggest rival only because we didn't play UofL. The moment we began playing in either sport, UofL leapfrogged IU in terms of intensity and hatred.
The IU basketball rivalry maintained a close second for the the duration of Bobby Knight's time even when he began to fade. However, I feel much of that was due to UK fans hating that asshole more than hating the IU basketball program.
We haven’t played in football in 20 years and haven’t played in the regular season in basketball in over 10. We’re dropping them in baseball because we can’t agree on when to play.
Outside of actually playing games against them though, totally our biggest rival.

Whatever the rivalry ranking is, we should play IU every year in basketball. Cal is such a pussy.
I miss playing IU in bball a little, but not in football. Always felt like the most boring/bland series when we played them every year in football. Maybe because we sucked most of the time idk, but just seemed pointless.
I'm cool with a biennial Bloomington roadie (football or basketball) just so The Faithful has a chance to drop in Nick's English Hut and play Sink the Biz.
Nothing bigger in college bball than CBS kicking off their bball coverage on an early December Saturday with UK playing IU.
The rivalry with IU was alive and well years after Bobby Knight. He may have helped build it, but it still exist without him.
I don’t care if we can’t use the Yum for a neutral site, there is no excuse for us not playing that game as long as it isn’t home/home.

My favorite thing about IU is that we're in contention for most hated with Purdue or at the very least a close second and we just refuse to play them in anything because we don't care enough.
SAE and I were there when we lost to IU in basketball in 2011. It was awful. I hate those guys. But guess what, we won the title that year, meaning it made us stronger. We should play those guys in a home and home because it makes the sport better.
Frankly, not playing IU in basketball makes us look like a bunch of bitches. The fact that game is no longer played is a f'n travesty. Keep telling yourselves whatever reasons that make you feel better, but it's complete bullshit.
Indiana has only themselves to blame. Their gradual descent into irrelevance has made them a meaningless program to any UK fan under 30.
Also, I think it has finally dawned on me that we are looking really f***ed, roster-wise, for next season. Cal bungled the transfer portal about as horribly as possible. I mean, he completely dropped the ball across the board.

PGA Tour agrees to merge with Saudi-backed rival LIV Golf
The PGA Tour is merging with Saudi-backed rival LIV Golf, following months of tensions and mounting lawsuits between the competitors.
Oh sure. The more you look at it, the more you’re like “oh boy”.
It’s a huge pile of “unknown” right now. And not the “unknown pieces” or “unknown with potential”- we literally have no idea what any important part can do in a college game over a college season and into a college tournament. And the fall off could be greater next year.
The "let's not play IU" crowd are cut from the same cloth as those who think it's wise to put UCLA and USC in the Big Ten. Regional rivalries matter. They make the game stronger.
So let me get this straight.........Tiger, for example, turned down almost $1 billion to join the LIV Tour because of his undying allegiance to the PGA folks, only to find out they eventually merge less than a year after he could have jumped ship.
Dumb ass question, but does that mean his stupid decision just cost him hundreds of millions of dollars?

I think he’s so rich he doesn’t really give AF.
LIV & the defectors clearly won. Damn
There isn't a person on earth who is "yeah, I don't need a few extra hundred million" rich. Don't be stupid.
NIL for this will kill off the other sports.
So wait- LIV and PGA are joining and hosting a sex tournament in Sweden and IU is also involved?
Sorry- was scrolling fast to catch up

So basically Saudi Arabia bought substantial ownership of the PGA and European tour in under a year. Pretty crafty tbh, kinda like when they bought all of Chicagos parking meters several years ago
Well, except for Kelly Craft.
Nah. Cal is doing great. If you disagree, you're probably a communist.
- I've given Mingione a ton of flack over the past couple of years, but I'm happy to eat crow on this one. As Clark said, he's a good guy and his players do seem to love him. What's really impressive about him is that he knew this was a make-or-break season. But instead of loading up the non-conference schedule with patsies, he leaned into the need to toughen up the OOC for RPI purposes, and worked the portal like a charm to put together the roster he needed. And it paid off. Good for that guy, and for that team.
- Used to get so annoyed as a kid when my parents would hound me about making sure that I knew where everything was that I needed for the next day's practice/game/trip/school day, etc. But doggone it if as a parent, that same question wouldn't solve about 70 percent of my frustration with the kids. Know where your cleats are. Know where your lacrosse stick is. Know where your backpack is. Get ready tonight for tomorrow. Profit.
- Made a pretty perfect blackberry cobbler last night. That pioneer lady sure knows what she's doing, recipe-wise.
- I long ago stopped paying attention to any Apple product announcements. I'm still bumping around with an iPhone 7, for crying out loud.
- Why are we still making kitchen trash bags that don't have a "grip the lid" drawstring? What are we even doing?

8 years ago today... what an all-time call at the end.
