Lexington Herald-Leader Cartoonist Joel Pett goes after UofL this time

[FiveStarCat]

Same guy who created the "John Calipari Trophy Case" cartoon a few years ago takes a swipe at UofL this time:

I don't remember seeing anything from this prick during the IU Kelvin Sampson debacle. I'm sure he wishes it was UK he could parody.

Just googled him and he was born in Bloomington. Good call. That explains the "Lose to IU, Take My Ball and Go Home Award" he included on the cartoon a few years ago.

Looks like an 8 year old drew it.

He missed a perfect opportunity to "enhance" the free throw lane and circle to better represent the the story line...oh well...

 

[CELTICAT]

I fail to see the humor

Exactly, he's a Hoosier. Another reason I never buy the LHL and another reason he has zero credibility with me.

Not funny. How much is the Herald Leader paying this clown?

Such a juicy subject matter and that's the best he can come up with?

No wonder their business sucks.

 

[Ugoff]

Pathetic. Rafters posters could beat that. We should have a contest.

 

[Ron Mehico]

Good one Joel Pett, you complete and utter loser.

i think the little swimmers were a funny tidbit

Really the only part of the pic that even made sense. I give it 2/10. The magnitude of this scandal should generate something so much better.

 

[Kycatspaws]

Kinda weak.

 

[UK till Death]

Wow. He's really terrible. No bite. No wit. Not even sure what point he's trying to make. Juvenile art work. Talented cartoonists all over the country are having a hard time hanging on at major newspapers. And this witless amateur has a job?

When you view it in light of the rest of their newspaper, it makes more sense.

[blubo]

screw that hoosier prick.

 

[UK till Death]

There should have been a stripper pole in the middle of the locker room with Katina standing off to the side.

Caption: "Pitino's newest assistant prepares to deliver an extra special, x-rated halftime "speech"."

I thought the same thing when I looked at it. As much as we hate UL, we still don't appreciate bad humor and poor workmanship.

 

[kornucopia]

shouldn't the dirty sypher be $3000?

 

[jamo0001]

Pathetic. Rafters posters could beat that. We should have a contest.

Seconded

 

[Jazzycat]

Joel Pett. Ugh....say no more......

 

[hotelblue]

i'll give him 3/10 for the extra big chompers on the bird.

Bird Teef as the natives call them.

Guy won a Pulitzer. Not too shabby. Double entendre!

Yet, he should get an award for trying to create stories and for making crap up. Pretty darn shabby.
