What is it with ESPN hating on UK?

[hurricane]

Last week they talk about Winston Bennet and his sex addiction. Then this morning on OTL, it is how Antoine Walker is broke, owes millions and millions of dollars and his reputation is that on a Slum Lord.

 

Whats next?

[Watusi]

How can they get away with broadcasting all these lies?

Especially when UK is playing so well right now. Do they have no integrity?

[HammerTime]

:lol: It is what it is. The truth hurts sometimes. They are interesting stories thats why they talk about them.

So ESPN is too blame?:ohbrother: Just wait till they run the piece on Cal's discretions at UMass and Memphis before the Final Four.:eek:

ESPN knows that it is just a matter of time before coach has this program in trouble.

Sad watching the Antoine piece...I hope some young kids are watching. Sadly they probably aren't. Why would these stories be construed as ESPN hating on UK. They didn't make it up...people are interested in this stuff.

Yeah, I remember all that hating they did on Duke during the Lacrosse team's scandal and I think they did a story on Laettner's business failings.

 

I think all ESPN wants to do is hate on schools with great basketball traditions seeing as now no one connected to these great programs ever have anything interesting going on in their lives that people can learn from when they aren't playing for these great schools anymore.

Just a little tongue in cheek with the "hating on UK" line. It is sad to see Antoine taken advantage of by his so called "entourage". But did his mom really need a 2.5 mil house with 10 restrooms, indoor pool and basketball court?

 

I hope others learn from this.

Sadly most people would rather see the downfall of people. I saw the one a couple of months ago about Hurley being in trouble with some KY banks for his failed horseracing ventures.

The guys on CBS (Greg Anthony and Seth Davis) clearly don't like UK. They haven't been able to give them any credit at all the entire tournament.

That's just...I don't know even know what to say. :ohbrother:

 

No one needs a house that big. So I agree with you. I hope others learn.

[The Scribe]

I think they're all just jealous of UK

I don't know...Octomom and the Duggars probably do.

I think the Walker story is important news that our youth needs to see. Really nothing to do with UK.
