I say they bring out Billy Idol next year.

Open up with Hot in The City and close her out with Mony Mony.

Crowd would go bananas and every BJW back here in Kentucky would lose his mind.

 

[WayneDougan]

Good Lord. Let's be honest here. Rap is low brow entertainment. It's got no business being in the SB halftime show.

I also prefer my metaphors to be a little less straightforward, but it is the Super Bowl. And that’s just not who he seems to want to be, and he’s successful enough that he doesn’t need to be.

Or to put it more succinctly: right time, wrong guy (not an endorsement). Just saying that’s what they were signing up for by selecting him.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

I’m all for anything that makes white people this upset.

 

[krazykats]

Figured the tickets out. Feels like I’m set back to my time living on High St only 2 blocks from Rupp walking down to watch those Tony Harris/Ron Slay/Vincent Yarborough UT teams I hated.

This is my #1 rival dating back to Allan Houston and some crazy drama filled game back as a kid during an era where we couldn’t win at Thompson-Boling and one game in particular came down to the intentional missed FT for tip out and last second shot.

I can’t remember everything exactly but those Allan Houston years I grew to hate those orange assholes more so than UL, Duke, UNC or any other school.

Pretty damn excited for this one!

Not sure where my Chiefs go from here or if I'll continue to be a fan.

I'd go look for 5 offensive linemen who collectively can block four defensive linemen.

I always remember this game every time someone says foul when up 3.

 

[Kennedy_UK]

My favorite party was Hubert f*cking Davis lecturing UK fans about "having a long way to go."

🙄

 

[80 Proof]

I always remember this game every time someone says foul when up 3.

Houston ran across the free throw line as soon as he shot it, well before the ball hit the rim. In today's game they wouldn't allow the putback shot after taking a 5 minute look at the monitor.

 

[SWFLwildcat06]

So we have beaten four teams now currently ranked in the top ten and three of them top five. Thats pretty robust, folks.

It was the most blatant missed FT violation in the history of organized basketball.

[WayneDougan]

When I play my son in the drive way I love to call him out on going across the line early on a FT. Pisses him off to no end but rules are rules.

Aww its cool you think even with a monitor review we would get that call.

 

[krazykats]

In the SEC Tourney a month later though:

 

[jayroon]

Likely no Robinson tomorrow

What a rascal!

 

[jayroon]

Kerr still a ways away thanks to the question sent into the Pope show by me.

 

[ukwizard]

At this point if he can red shirt he probably should.

 

[krazykats]

Likely no Robinson tomorrow

Something’s you just don’t have to rush here to post.

🤮

[legalbeagle123]

North Carolina sucks.

 

[Century Cat]

If this holds, I assume a 22 point win would be a cover for Clemson?

 

[Irish Beck]

Just win baby!

 

[80 Proof]

Pubert's mood this morning

 

[krazykats]

- That was for sure the nail in their Tournament hopes, right?

I really wonder how RJ Davis feels staying there for this mess because he deserves better in his last season!

- I got no read on this game tonight because Vegas played this different than usual as a home ranked team typically is favored when they expect that home team to win. However that type of line isn’t covering per usual percentages.

That said it’s well known we have been struggling, and may be without a key player and somehow UT is only a 1 point favorite feels like Vegas has a trap set, and of course it has been bet up to -3 already.

I love home teams as a small favorite and/or as a very small underdog.

- I hope Robinson could play some if for nothing else to spare Butler 10-15 minutes. That time without Butler and Robinson will be crucial and if Butler gets in foul trouble we could be in trouble.

- Glad Pope was asked about the Williams/Garrison combo because teams can’t get anything inside when both are playing.

* I'm speaking it into existence. Today is going to be the perfect day.

Productive morning, business networking lunch, then I'm getting in an early afternoon run. By 3:30 I'll be at the gym throwing some weights and listening to the pre-game show, topped off with a nice steam and shower. By 5 o'clock, the dogs will get their walk, and I'll have my ass parked on the couch reading CatPaw and waiting for the game to start. It's a pizza night, and I pray I get to watch the game in peace and quiet while the lass entertains herself in the other room watching TikTok reels or whatever. The Cats come out firing and complete the regular season sweep of the Vols.

Prayers requested. I need this.

* Santa's sleigh........bring the gifts.



* So are bellbottoms back? K-Dot, that sure was a look.

* Our next two games are at Texas, and Vanderbilt at home. I don't care if we have to take a short term loss for a long term gain -- but I'd seriously consider benching Kerr, Butler, Jax and Carr if needed. That's 2 full weeks to get healthy. Right now, it's like we're getting them about half-assed in fits and starts. As long as this team makes the Big Dance, we can beat anyone, anytime, anywhere. If you gotta sacrifice right now for the big picture, then let's do it.

* Anthony Mackie (of Papa Doc fame) checked into his hotel this weekend under the alias "Rod Tidwell."

* Kill Tony had a bucket pull last night was from Kentucky, and he bombed as hard as is even possible to bomb. Both the stand up and and the interview, almost all of which was talking about Kentucky. He truly brought great shame to the Commonwealth.

* Friendly reminder: NEVER overestimate or fear a Rick Barnes coached team.

Cats by 4.

[HymanKaplan]

I'm impervious to preaching and the moral/societal judgments of others. That is how little I think of them/humanity in it's entirety. The show had some fire beats though.

Also, I just thought that that was Alonzo's car from Training Day.

 

[VernHatton52]

It would hurt if Jax missed tonight, but that reveals the beauty of how Pope has constructed and developed this team. Jax is out, so start Brea and Noah fills his role off the bench. Pope gave Noah and Chandler an equal opportunity to fill that next in the rotation role and Noah won out. Now he's ready to go.

 

[HymanKaplan]

I'm pretty happy with the season so far, and I have a lot of faith that Pope will have a nice run at Kentucky. My only criticism would be; maybe, from this point forward, try to avoid players that are made out of balsa wood.

Pretty sure Jax can't play since he's already listed as out on the injury report.

Then next man up

 

[bradyjames]

How are the roads up there? Not sure I want to make the trip up from Murfreesboro.

 

[cricket3]

Wet, slushy, and getting ready to turn over to rain. You may not even be able to tell it snowed by the time the game starts.

I've never seen that guy before, but I have done a show with that retired doctor with the speech impediment. He killed at that show, too.

 

[Hank Camacho]

Love Noah's nose for the ball. Almost reminds me of a freshman Gerald Fitch in how the ball always seems to find his hands during bang-up plays.

 

[cut_itloosedoubledeuce]

Been watching clips/highlights of old UK tourney games the last couple wks. Stumbled upon the 2001 UK-Southern Cal game the other day. Had completely wiped that game from my memory. Almost a miraculous comeback by the cats, but fell short. Bluthenthal had the game of his life.

Jason Parker should have been a lot better than he turned out being.
