Not claiming to being an insider BUT...

as a fan i said i didn't like the idea of playing ucla at their place when it was first announced. neutral court fine, but obviously what happened last night was way more beneficial to ucla---even if we would have won it would have helped them more than us. it put their house on the national stage for all the west coast recruiting base to see.
i say this because we are trying to overtake their 11 titles and i just don't like the idea of giving them any kind of advantage, no mattter how small.
maybe it's no more significant than whizzing in the ocean, but as a diehard bb fan i can't stand the thought of giving them any kind of edge.
does anybody else feel this way or am i just being a spoiled selfish big blue fanatic?

I agree with you. Why not have UCLA come to our house? We were ranked above them at number one no less. This loss will be forgotten in time, but the happiness it caused Booby Knight will make him grin in his deathbed.

They are coming to Rupp next year. We have UL at home this year and on the road next. Balanced scheduling.
 
Exactly. The OP acts like he's sharing some hot insider information, when actually everything he says is obvious to anyone who's been paying attention. Skal is developing slower than anticipated and ain't playing with a mean streak? Umm, yeah, we can all see that. Skal ain't coming back next year? Oh my! Did anyone ever think he was?

But, hey, thanks for the scoop.
 
I agree, I just read, but I get a kick out of these smartasses, thx OP for the insight.

Hey smartass Throatpoker, my father had a line for a guy like you, " the only thing guys like you played after highschool were with yourself' based on your contribution, I bet you fit the bill. Again thx OP. Now tough guy fire away
 
Thanks for the info OP. I'm one of those non-judgmental posters that chooses to derive my own opinions and conclusions without the need to blast other posters because I disagree with their views. Please continue to share your inside info.
 
One loss on the road in December has diminished UK's chances to eventually overtake UCLA's 11 titles? I vote for this post being equal to whizzing in the ocean.
So, it brings you a feeling of deep satisfaction and warmth all around you, shortly followed by slight shame?

What the hell? I haven't even seen throatpoker in this thread? Why attack him? Personal thing, or did I miss something?

Read the first page you will see his contribution
Bottom line be kind or don't respond. Tired of tough guys that are tough through a computer and hammer people that are actually trying to bring value to the group. Pretty simple be a decent person and not belittle people. I will stop now and go back to reading.

I saw his post on page 1; must have missed it the first time through. But, I probably missed it because it was pretty mild. So, I'm guessing that was just the straw that broke the camels back, as the saying goes. I can understand your frustration with that. It does get to me when I see folks post in a thread in a negative or condescending tone just to be an ass. Unfortunately, I can't say I've never done it, but it has been rare, and usually because I recall past posts that cloud my judgement on the current topic. Anyway, just saying that I get it and don't blame you for being hostile.
 
Thank you, I like UK fans that I've met in person but I'm sure if UK didn't lose last night I wouldn't get this backlash.

Wall Star, I'm 76 years old, have been a CAT fan for over 70 years, and I attend all football games, SEC Tournaments, and Final Fours. Thanks for the post. I'm sorry there are A-Holes on here, but jealousy will always be with some posters.
Please continue to post anything you hear.

OLD STOLL FIELD GUY!
