March 11, 201214 yr A lot of these so called UK fans didn't start keeping up with the cats until the SEC Tournament started... Bandwagon Fans!!!:irked:
March 11, 201214 yr Author Umm...did I say that? :ohbrother: Just pointing out that people want to talk about the game and just because your page is filled up with such things, it may not be so for others. No need to be defensive -- not trying to insult you. I wasn't being defensive, it was a shot at you, and apparently it missed high!
March 11, 201214 yr Thankfully, only a handful of my 316 Facebook friends are UK fans, and my UL/Duke/IU/NC friends are pretty rational. This is the first I knew of the Big Blue Facebook Meltdown.
March 11, 201214 yr Thankfully, only a handful of my 316 Facebook friends are UK fans, and my UL/Duke/IU/NC friends are pretty rational. This is the first I knew of the Big Blue Facebook Meltdown. Most of the 82% UK fans didn't have a meltdown!I for one was relieved that they got beat.
March 11, 201214 yr Anyone else feel the same way about a gazillion threads on the same topic on Facebook?Nope.
March 12, 201214 yr Days like today are "horrible" facebook days. Everyone and their brother/sister starts a thread about the UK loss and it makes your news feed one big UK train wreck. Imagine if every member on BGP that had an interest in the game today started her/his own thread in the College Basketball Forum? It would be a mess and this is just another one of the reasons I don't like Facebook. I realize this isn't a Facebook problem but more of the Facebook/Narcissism Issue showing its ugly head. Everyone has to be the guy/gal to start a thread about it. It is really no different than that first snow, the first really warm day, or a holiday. It is days like this that I am thankful for our BGP social network so I can avoid all the blue this and blue that garbage on FB. Anyone else feel the same way about a gazillion threads on the same topic on Facebook? I would "like" this comment, but I see that you have 72 likes to my 36. So here at the Parker household, we're taking a vacation from "liking" anything Guru says. Having said that, I wholeheartedly agree with everything you've said here.
March 12, 201214 yr I would also imagine that a lot of the younger generations don't actually even read through the Newsfeed because they are primarily posting on their phones and they aren't really scrolling through to see what others say, at least when big things like this happen. At least my opinion.
March 12, 201214 yr 99% of my friends are Cat fans.... When they when or lose, I stay Facebook for, at least, an hour. Then it's safe to go back in.

March 12, 201214 yr I didn't see a single negative facebook post regarding UK's loss from a single UK fan. Most were very positive, as AJG said. The few negative posts I did come across were from Louisville fans.

March 12, 201214 yr One UK fan blamed the refs. No, really. He did. I'd imagine he/she would fall in the 18%
