Fans need to chill. Players need to do better. Both can be true.

I guess you ignored the " college coach " part ? Does it take Phil J to know right from wrong and when you are being disrespected and played ? Whatever junior , go back to playing call of duty .A regional championship.....wow! You're basically Phil Jackson!
Rather difficult , evidently some bad things have happened to a few guys baited into doing so . And I',m supposed to do this so an anonymous guy , from Nigeria , whose rich uncle died , is going to send me 500 bucks ?? Here's some more bullshit for you -- I owned a business that did 3 mil a year in sales and sold out and semi retired this year at age 56 .... I dont need your 500 bucksHere comes the Hall of Fame credentials… 😂😂😂 I’ll bet $500 you can not prove any of that success!! I’ll literally PayPal you $500 if you can prove just one part of your statement. I’ll wait…….
Well, yea, I did, because we both know it's not true.I guess you ignored the " college coach " part ? Does it take Phil J to know right from wrong and when you are being disrespected and played ? Whatever junior , go back to playing call of duty .
So it’s ok for fans to crap on the team and players but they can’t respond in kind?
Besides offending you, what did Ware say that was wrong?“It’s easy for people or fans to point their fingers and other people to point their fingers and get on Twitter and type stuff about you,” Ware told reporters Thursday night. “But I’m pretty sure none of them have ever played in a game like that, and never will. Never been in my position or anybody on my team’s position. So it’s kinda funny to see people talk about stuff they don’t know anything about. They just watch.”
I had to start a new profile because a guy figured out who I was once and was being, lets just say a little stalkerish. 😬Rather difficult , evidently some bad things have happened to a few guys baited into doing so .

I have witnessed posters make those comments who have also mentioned being UK students and graduates so your insinuation that only poor uneducated people make dumb comments is inaccurate. Stupidity isn't limited to the poor or uneducated and if you don't believe me look no further than Washington DC where educated idiots are running around everywhere.He is 100% correct. The posters on here that are downright rude to the players seem to the low income, poorly educated that couldn't get to uk on a waterboy scholarship.
I also agree that if the fans can hide behind their message boards and trash the players then why can't the players respond in kind. All the big boys on here can go tell the players to their face on campus if they are so tough.
That about sums it up they get paid for results not comments.So it’s ok for fans to crap on the team and players but they can’t respond in kind?
Yup, the same MO as last year.Grom has stated it , and it appears he's correct , Cal is laying some groundwork to go scorched earth . Ware never ever says anything like this without Cals " coaching"
Cal can’t hide you buddy. That’s the point of Cals comment. You’re gonna get lit up if you can’t hack it. Ware will never get to the level he wants if he’s worried about what fans think. We know what this team needs.“It’s easy for people or fans to point their fingers and other people to point their fingers and get on Twitter and type stuff about you,” Ware told reporters Thursday night. “But I’m pretty sure none of them have ever played in a game like that, and never will. Never been in my position or anybody on my team’s position. So it’s kinda funny to see people talk about stuff they don’t know anything about. They just watch.”
Kind of a snide remark. Yes, we watch but care. If we didn't there wouldn't be a fanbase called BBN. Just bc I've never put on the UK jersey doesn't mean I'm not invested or know nothing about basketball. Quite the contrary. I've been a UK fan for longer than he's been alive. So let's suffice to say we both have unique perspectives of caring about the program but recognize it's for the same cause. Don't crap where ya eat Lance!!!
Needs more rebounds12 PTS, 3 REB, 2 BLKs. He can say anything he wants with efforts like that,

Yeah he's wrong. Credentials? Please. This isn't the space shuttle. Fans are intelligent enough to recognize shitty basketball and losses. Lord knows we've seen enough of that lately. These kids are professionals. They need to learn to deal with some heat. Toughen up and do better.He’s not wrong. I’m sure a ton of the stuff he sees on Twitter is absolute garbage from someone with 0 credentials.

You loathe weak minded unintelligent drivel but here you are spouting about as much of it as I’ve read on here a while lol. I have more respect for Ware that busts his butt everyday in practice and has shown he is a good teammate than self entitled fans like you. You sir give BBN a bad name.I loathe weak minded , unintelligent drivel like he has spouted . He should be gracious his coach constantly gives him playing time he has not earned , but has been gifted . See last night . I could say more but it isdnt worth my time ... players like him are not worthy of the UK jersey , or any more of my time .. enjoy the limelight now Sir Lance , there will be a time soon when no one gives a bowel movement at where you played your college ball , you entitled nitwit . This is exactly why people care less , and less , and less .
It’s an ignorant response. Just because somebody didn’t play at the highest D1 level doesn’t mean they don’t understand the game or played in similar situations. It’s a fallacySo it’s ok for fans to crap on the team and players but they can’t respond in kind?
I’ll take Ware over many ‘fans’ on here.“It’s easy for people or fans to point their fingers and other people to point their fingers and get on Twitter and type stuff about you,” Ware told reporters Thursday night. “But I’m pretty sure none of them have ever played in a game like that, and never will.

Dead on.And, in the current NIL climate, with many fans donating big $ to these players, they have a little more invested than just two hours of their time. Not to mention the $ spent on tickets & travel. These players aren’t just innocent amateurs, anymore. Now, NOBODY should be going to his Twitter, or, any other personal page of his & directly insulting him, regardless. But, if he can’t handle what is said on message boards, or, call-in shows, then maybe somewhere like UK isn’t for him. You better have thick skin if you play here. Or, stay off social media & stay in your safe space.
But, honestly, it sounds more like something that he’s heard from Calipari. Our coach has an obvious disdain for fans & anyone who dares to criticize him, valid, or, not. So, I wouldn’t be surprised, at all, if he’s telling his players that fans & their opinions are meaningless & preaching that they are above such criticism from the ignorant Bennies. But, I think they might be shocked by how many of us have played, coached, or, have at least been around basketball most of our lives & aren’t the inexperienced, uneducated hillbillies that they seem to think we are.
It seems like Cal wants all the praise, but, none of the accountability when things go wrong. And, now players are also reflecting that attitude. Ware would be nothing more than a victory cigar in any other era of UK basketball & he feels entitled to, basically, tell fans that they know nothing & to keep their mouths shut & wallets open? What exactly does he do well besides being tall? If Cal’s teams would stop underachieving they’d hear nothing but crickets. Like I said, nobody should ever insult the players directly, regardless. But, the players shouldn’t bite the hands that feed them, either.
The problem is he and Wheeler's comments seem more about making excuses than taking responsibility for losing.I don't care if fans lash out or are frustrated by the way we lost that MSU game. So many breakdowns that just should never have happened.
Having said that, I don't care if Ware wants to lash out in response either. He's not wrong. Although we have experience on this team we also had quite a few that were never in that situation as well. You hope they learn from this that way it doesn't happen in March,
It’s the new age Lebron era entitles players. They’re soft. This is the same as Lebron, Draymond, and Russ stopping games to have fans ejected for yelling at them and then playing the victim knowing ppl will assume they said the worst though that’s highly unlikely. The last one was caught in video and was literally just a fan saying “shut up Draymond” while he was whining about a call.Would Kobe or MJ ever put out a soft comment like that after their team blew a game against an inferior opponent? You play for Kentucky. When you lose games you have no business losing, you’re gonna be criticized. If you wanna be mediocre, go play at Dayton or some shit.
Very good.I’m sorry but I don’t blame Lance. Entitled grown men literally cussing these players out and expect them not to respond??? Sounds to me that you all have talked too much trash behind a screen and now mad that you’re being called out on your BS. The internet definitely has made people comfortable with disrespecting other people and not getting punched in the mouth for it.
I would get mad too if I’m a major D1 player and I have people who have never played organized basketball trying to tell me how to play.
Y’all need to chill and realize, yes us fans are important, but you can’t continue to cross barriers and expect these players not to respond.
Fans are entitled to be able to say what they want to the players but they can’t respond to your BS??? Sounds like you’re a liberal to me! 🤷♂️
