Hmmm, I smell something cooking …. Louisville barbecued its ancient bitter rival 56-0, notching its first shutout in 4 years– And set a fire under its own season heading into Big East play...
In the most lopsided victory ever in the rivalry, Trinity punished X until the officials finally signaled the Mercy Rule , with no stopping the clock, with over 5 minutes to play…. And we have the evidence--pics ...as usual they were taken by Hell in the Hall photographer, Matt Wickham. Enjoy! Frank
Hell in the Hall photog, Matt Wickham, captured two of the finest shots of Doug Beaumont's first TD-- as well as 180+ other pics. One of which was Flicker's Grid-iron Shot of the Day....ck 'em out, guys GO CARDS !!!

(Editor’s note: What suddenly compels a mortgage broker –with no cheer leading background–to invent the C-A-R-D-S cheer– and then try to lead 20,000 screaming fans? I did this interview in March, 2008. This year, I note Rob is already warming up, and led some massive CARDS cheers at the Villanova White-Out from his seat near my section 336…)

"There have been some great games over the years, but none so big. So much was at stake, and the winner went to the Final Four. The weight of the State was on the shoulders of the players and coaches." "There was only one–the original–Dream Game." Charles Jones, U of L center in The Game
To cut to the chase: There was no announcement--nor did I expect one at this presser. But....I'd be absolutely amazed if TJ retained him, based on the presser (and insight from multiple...
Here’s a little Thanksgiving treat before you snooze off full of turkey. I posted this last season after a particularly nasty series of dunks by T-Will in a game. Frenzied debate immediately welled up in Card Land as to who rightfully deserved the title of THE greatest dunker in U of L history. So…I rounded up video of the main candidates for the title. You make your choice… Frank
I wrote this article two seasons ago, but this remarkable young man deserves a spotlight once again as the final season at Freedom Hall opens....

We're way past questions of K staying .....It's just a matter of time and who the replacement will be. And how will u celebrate that fine and sunny day (no matter what the true weather may...
It felt good to be in the Hall again, didn’t it? This year’s gift of basketball was unwrapped last night, and the Cards began their final season in Freedom Hall with a 80-68 win over nearby Georgetown College. ********************************************************* Matt (KyKures) snapped photos for Hell in the Hall as usual, and after you review Sam4Gtr's pics here at CC, you may want to wander by and ck out Matt's picsalso. Between the two of these guys, the CC community has it pretty darn good...
