You are the quintessential fan pessimistic fan. I'm not sure I've ever read a post about UK bball where you had a positive outlook on the team. Yes, you can find most of them at Rupp arena during home games. The other can be found jaming the telephone lines to the coaches call in show.

Believe me when Kansas cut the lead in April he thought we were beat.
January 16, 201313 yr No, the UK fan base likes to believe UK is the greatest team in the country no matter how bad they may be. John Wall's team was bad the 1st half of the season. It took a Wall buzzer beater to beat Miami (OH). For the record on 1/16/10 John Wall's team was 18-0 and we wonder why the national perception is that UK fans are unrealistic.

I listen to pregame show, postgame show, KSR radio show every day... haven't heard a single caller say this. If anything, I hear them being overly critical of the team. Just not sure where some of you come up with this stuff.

I guess I had Wall's team mixed up with the one that lost 9 games, but generally, you are right. I'm usually a pessimistic fan when it comes to my sports teams. I guess being frustrated over the years with the Reds, Bengals, UK football, and some disappointing UK basketball seasons have made me that way. Having said all that, I think I'm being realistic when I say I don't think Kentucky will make the tournament this year. To say I've never said anything positive about a UK basketball team though is totally inaccurate.

Thank goodness for UK basketball or I may be the most negative person in the world.
