RockPride Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Well, we all know they're no Duke, but they've made a pretty good run at it over the past century. And, on a side note, Orlando did a pretty good job of that himself before Billy Clyde got there. If YOU are bringing up BCG's predecessor....now that's a coach, that's a man that was no excuses and could snatch a victory from the hands of defeat, not the latter.

RockPride Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 The only thing worse than "unrealistic UK fans" is "fans of schools that hate the [almost mythical] unrealistic UK fan". In defense, there are very, very FEW Duke fans that hate UK.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but I'd be willing to bet Billy Clyde could out drink him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cch5432 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 In defense, there are very, very FEW Duke fans that hate UK.... FWIW (and this is coming from someone who is hardly a fanatic of collegiate sports at all) I wasn't speaking of Duke fans specifically at all- I was speaking particular to most BGP posters (who either unrealistically support UK or unrealistically hate UK), and my hatred for Duke comes from my years in North Carolina as a Tar Heel fan. If that is unacceptable, than so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

14thregionman Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 Rock, do you feel that Tubby is a better coach than Mike K, Billy G, Billy D, Ricky Pitino, etc? He did very little to impress me over his tenure at UK, he really didn't. This very Kentucky team (which you are insenuating sucks) could win 26, which Tubby Bell Dairy, Tubby Johns Pizza, Tubby Raferty's, Tubby Miller Ford, Tubby Nurse's Registery, Tubby Kentucky Pride averaged during his tenure at UK. I bet the farm Billy G. won't have 10 losses to go with it either. Good day, sir. Good Day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason it will not be 13 or 14 is that the SEC is sooooo badddddd this year. If UK is in the ACC or the BEast, they are already near ten at this point of the season IMO.

corndog23 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 You know he acts like he knows what it's like to be a true winner at the top of college basketball....BCG is a joke, until further notice. Geez, Duke loses one game and you go all postal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
