No worse than any other team. I will take some more like him. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

Yo Bristoe! Your coach looks nervous! Sweating like a pig on market day!!
"It ain't communism??"
Cal is always animated. I don't think he was nervous. He was just pissed because the Cats started off slow yet again. The biggest problem with this years team is they're just too casual. They don't kick it up until they have to,..and it drives Cal nuts. They're gonna have to get over that before Saturday. Cincy plays hard and they play thug ball,...always have. From here on out, if the Cats come out slow, they'll get beat.

That Chievous guy that plays for Hampton is one of the big stories of the day. He sprained his ankle bad day before yesterday,....had to be helped to the bench. But he's a senior and it was pretty much a foregone conclusion that this was the last game of his college career,..and he was determined to play.
He got a double/double with 22 points and 10 rebounds. That would have been remarkable if he had been healthy.
He was hurting bad by the second half but he refused to come out,...even after it was apparent that the game was a lost cause.

Cats-Bear Cats at 2:20. This could be a good one! I expect Cincy to be very physical against KY!

That's impressive at every level. I wish the kid well and I hope someone at an NBA front office paid attention to his game and drive. He's a throwback player with a ton of grit and determination.

Larry Brown said the Cats could beat any team in the East and contend in the playoffs.
Barkley said Brown was crazy!
Anyone keeping an eye on Arizona??

The odds of nailing a perfect bracket are 1 in 9.2 Quintillion.
That's 9.2000000000000000000!!!! Local golf course has a deal - you don't even have to be perfect, just have the best one out of the entrants and win free green fees for life. I'm gonna enter. That's a great deal!! How's it working out for you? My bracket is at about 80% now. Maybe a little lower.

Kentucky played their best game of the year today,..played physical against a very physical team and took 'em to school. (and this Kentucky team isn't known for physical play)
Entertaining stuff.

Yup! KY is playing well because as you said they are staring to play muscle ball just like everyone else. But they are doing it clean.
Also, as a team they are playing well at both ends of the court across all players. Will be hard to beat.

If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Good article on *this* Kentucky team. Not really surprising to those of us who follow them. They're actually good kids. Some of them are downright bashful. http://www.wdrb.com/story/28576156/bozich-kentucky-has-the-look-and-the-vibe-of-a-championexcerpt: Ask the Hampton Pirates, the team Kentucky dispatched, 79-56, in UK's opening NCAA Tournament game at the KFC Yum! Center Thursday night. The Hampton players were more impressed by the way Kentucky behaved than the way the Wildcats played.
“They didn't do too much trash talking,” Hampton guard Gregory Hayden said. “They weren't arrogant. They just came out and played basketball and did what they had to do.
“They were polite. They were actually cool and dapped us up. They said, ‘Good game, keep your head up.' That's really surprising from a group of guys that caliber.
“Most people think they're the number one team in the nation, McDonald's all-Americans and cocky. That group of guys aren't like that. They're very humble.”
I interviewed four Hampton players after the Wildcats defeated the Pirates. All four said they expected Kentucky to win the NCAA Tournament. All four said that John Calipari's players did not say one discouraging word to a team that was obviously outmanned.
“They're a great group of guys,” said Emmanuel Okoroba, Hampton's reserve center. "They didn't talk trash at all.
“While they were beating us, one of them actually stepped on my shoe and said, ‘Excuse me.' That shocked me.”
That player, for the record, was Dakari Johnson, Kentucky's back-up center.
It's been that way all season. Darrin Horn, an analyst on the SEC Network has worked multiple UK games. Horn said that Kentucky plays like a group of guys who are comfortable on the big stage.
“Our job is not to brag,” Johnson said. “We just come out and play a game that we love, just compete and have fun with each other.”
