why?

What's good for one team is seldom good for the sport as a whole.

Yeah theY destroyed Kansas.

This thing could get pretty ugly by March. They be good.

So,...college basketball should be modeled after communism?

,...that every team should get players "according to its needs"?

Not at all - I would no more like to see that than to have it modeled after captialism where the team that invests the most and/or the most wisely is the most succesful.

I would like to see each team composed of students from the general student body who came to the school for a rigorous academic challenge and who participate in athletics as a diversion - just my preference.

What do you dislike about capitalism?

Capitalism is alive and well in the NBA.

Capitalism shouldn't be alive and well under the guise of a college education should it?

Spare me the fact that CBS makes money off these kids. Someone could form a minor league if they wanted...correct?

I still say watch out for Bennett and the VA Cavaliers. They're building something special and developmental.

For the most part, a college education is obtained in order to more successfully participate in the practice of capitalism.

Simply put,..people go to college so they can make more money.

It also sounds pretty cool during pro player self - introductions.

"Maximus Samsonite...The U!"

Texas has a powerful team this year,..very big and physical.

They out-rebounded Kentucky by 12,..played a very good zone defense and caused Kentucky to go 1 for 12 from 3 point range.

It was tough. Kentucky only beat them by 12 points.

North Carolina wasn't enough.

Almost Christmas and haven't lost one yet.

UCLA up next.

The fun part of the season is here.

Yeah, and if the Pacers keep losing they'll get a lottery pick. Wouldn't be a bad thing to get a hometown boy in the draft...

Stomped UCLA's ass in a rather major fashion.

It's getting very interesting.

do you think they'll go undefeated this season Bristoe?

I've yet to see them play but would like to, seems they have a NBA junior team playing against other colleges from what I've read of your postings this season.

It's looking more likely than before.

They jumped out to a 24 to 0 lead on UCLA yesterday,...held them to 7 points in the first half. After that Kentucky didn't even seem to be playing hard. I wouldn't exactly say that Cal has been holding the team back against some opponents, but it's obvious that he's not pushing them real hard either.

Word has it that the toughest games they play is during practice against each other.

The hardest game they've had all season was against Texas. Texas is big and plays very physical. That's the only way to come at this Kentucky team and have any hope of winning.

What is this game contested by black peoples with a large round ball and a circle in the sky?

I watched some of that ucla game. There's no doubt in my mind that they'd stomp the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Kentucky/Louisville comes up next on the 27th.

That *could* be the toughest game Kentucky plays all season. Louisville doesn't have the size or the talent of Kentucky but Pitino is a hell of a game coach and he understands how to play to his strengths.

Willy Cauly Stein is Kentucky's best all around player by a sizable margin,..a 7 footer that runs the floor like a 6'3" guard. On defense he's everywhere and he's very effective against every player from the guards to the center. But he's not particularly physical. He's no wimp,...far from it, but he plays a finesse game, which is very unusual for a 7 footer.

I look for Pitino to put somebody on him and play him rough.

Seems like he may be getting Harrell worked up for it.
