A little trash talk with a UNC fan

Acdixon — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 18:00:01 -0000

Just wanted to share some excerpts of a little IM trash talk I engaged in this morning with a UNC fan friend of mine.

Me: What happened to your Tar Heels this weekend?

Friend: We are rebuilding!! They're young

Me: Oh, I thought Old Roy just reloaded instead of rebuilding. LOL

Friend: Nope - doesn't happen that way. The joy of this season will hopefully come in seeing the progress they have made from a loss like the Syracuse loss.

Me: Don't worry - being the _second_ program to 2000 wins is pretty cool too.

Friend: Yea yea yea. You see, we have experience with "year after the championship" struggles!

Me: I'd like to see some more "year with Matt Daugherty at the helm" struggles. LOL

Friend: No - that I don't need!

I don't usually do trash talk, but this was kinda fun, and of course, my friend took it in the lighthearted spirit in which it was offered. Just thought my Big Blue Brethren (and Sistren) would enjoy it.

UK v. Clarion: My pictures from the game

It's a little late, but I was privileged to be at the UK v. Clarion game. (Someone gave me tickets at the last minute... lower level.) I took loads of pictures, but have only had time to get a few of them up. Hope you enjoy them.

Wall not alone in eligibility dilemma

Wall not alone in eligibility dilemma

Money quote from Calipari: "There’s probably 10-15 kids going through the same thing that John’s going through, but he’s been cleared in every way. The other stuff they’re looking at, they’re looking at with a lot of kids."

Looks like Tru was right in assuming the NCAA is looking at most of the guys who played under Clifton. Wonder if that arrogant Dukie blogger is still so confident that his guy will come out unscathed?

John Wall charged with breaking and entering

You gotta be freakin' kidding me! Can things with this guy get any stranger? KSR says it was an abandoned house, but still. C'mon!

Tyus to return. What the heck is going on in Gainesville?

Can someone make some sense of all this? Where's GatorPilot when you need him?

Bad news for Ole Miss; good news for those of us still having nightmares about that dude.

UNLV beat writer impugns C.M. Newton

Whether or not you agree with his assessment of UK's meriting a home game, for this guy to drag C.M. through the mud with no evidence is wrong.

How 'bout a little positive news? Jodie and Pat both First-Team All-SEC

Regardless of the team's struggles right now, let's give some congratulations to two very deserving young men.

Matt Jones layeth the smacketh downeth

As much juvenile garbage as sometimes gets posted on KSR, this was actually a nice read. Matt Jones takes Seth Davis to task for his recent comments that UK fans have an "inferiority complex" with regard to Duke.

Just like to point this out when it happens. When Tru speaks, even the LHL listens!
