June 22, 200719 yr What percentage of Kentuckians that have Direct TV or the Insight sports package? I think it is significantly less then the number of people that have ESPN and ESPN2. I would imagine that on this site where people pay to talk about sport online that there would be a much higher percentage, but overall this would make it harder for the casual sports family to watch the big game. But again if ESPN Classic picks up the game that would at least be something, thus far they have not. Direct TV and Dish Network have ESPN Classic on the basic package. Not sure on the percentages, and don't really care to look. Regardless, if it is picked up by Classic, people can watch it if they really want to. Everyone knows someone who has a dish.
June 22, 200719 yr Welcome to the internet HB20. Ever heard the phrase, "There's no use crying over spilled milk" ?

Again which is why I have now said five times that if is it picked up I would pipe down but it has not been picked up yet.
June 22, 200719 yr Ever heard the phrase, "There's no use crying over spilled milk" ?Yes and since the game is not until September it in no ways applies here in any way. I am arguing for the milk not to be spilt which is proactive.
June 22, 200719 yr Again which is why I have now said five times that if is it picked up I would pipe down but it has not been picked up yet. Thats great. But there's only so many ways you can re-word these complaints about UK and their "horrible" decisions.
June 22, 200719 yr Yes and since the game is not until September it in no ways applies here in any way. I am arguing for the milk not to be spilt which is proactive. The decision has been made. Nothing anyone can do about it. Complaining on BGP won't make ESPN classic pick the game up. :lol: BTW, I'm going to try and stop here. It seems like this thread is just doing circles...

It seems like this thread is just doing circles... I am complianing proactively, I never said I was going to change anything. I am just saying it is a dumb decision that at this point may cost many fans a view of the game. Spin it how you like the perception is the reality and the perception is that UK is has given up on a game that has not yet been played and is trying to bury it in the media. True or not that is what it looks like.

True or not that is what it looks like. Given up on the game??? LOL!!! UK was a fumble on the goal line away from overtime or/and a win the last time the teams met in Commonwealth two years ago, and are very much improved since...I look for UK to win this game...U of L fans are way out of control, which is good...
June 22, 200719 yr U of L fans are way out of control, which is good... If we are, we've learned from the VERY best...
June 22, 200719 yr If we are, we've learned from the VERY best... Good move, learn all you can from the very best.
June 22, 200719 yr But there's only so many ways you can re-word these complaints about UK and their "horrible" decisions. UK's complete lack of common sense in scheduling this game UK's bonehead move UK's fear of exposure UK's feeble excuse UK's poor judgement UK's attempt to prevent embarassment on national TV I count 6 so far.

You forgot to add , "In my biased opinion" to the front of all those. :thumb:
June 22, 200719 yr If we are, we've learned from the VERY best... UL fans on here keep complaining about how horrible UK fans have treated them. Are there some issues here that need discussing? Have the UK fans done some irreparable damage? :laugh:
June 22, 200719 yr You forgot to add , "In my biased opinion" to the front of all those. :thumb: And in the opinion of most sports commontators from around the state, that I have seen, as well. In fact I have yet to see anyone but a dyed in the wool, true blue, I'll believe anything Barnhart says UK fan defend this decision. No bias there is there? This one for instance This one for another
June 22, 200719 yr UL fans on here keep complaining about how horrible UK fans have treated them. Are there some issues here that need discussing? Have the UK fans done some irreparable damage? :laugh: If you think the Louisville fans on here haven't caught more crap than anybody, you're foolish. And obviously we can take it. We're still around, ruffling your alls feathers. If you think Im going to let UK fans run me off, you're sadly mistaken. Growing up in Frankfort, I've been in the same UL/UK situation my whole life, and I wouldn't have it any other way. :thumb:
