TC - let's set the record straight. Yes, you start stuff, you did last year with Dalebert and OSU. And the thing that really gets me is you can't admit when the little red birds or when orange gets beat that a better team beat them. I'm shocked your not blaming the refs for the red birds losing.
No Tony, you didn't call me last year, simply because you don't have my cell phone #, nor did I call you Saturday night, and wouldn't have if I had your cell phone #, what I dislike again is that you have a hard time separating fans, not all red bird fans are idiots any more than all Cat fans are idiots.
No the little red birds did not play as well as they have all year, but guess what they were not playing the little sisters of the poor either (otherwise known as 1-AA Murray St, or lowly Sun Belt Middle Tenn. St.). They were playing a decent (I know you can't say that) team out of the SEC. I think the Cats played about like they have all year, they looked good out of the gate against EKU, but again that is a 1-AA team, and they looked good in the second half against Kent. However, we will see how good they are when they go on the road against Arkansas next week.
I felt from the outset this year that UL was way overrated, even told you that they were not going to be that good on defense, and I will make a prediction for you, that if, and remember if, UL's defense does not improve greatly, Slaton, White, & Devine will have a field day.
Tony, some times we need to sit back and listen to ourselves, because we can't see the forest for the trees. My problem with you is that you can't admit that on one night, to be specific Saturday Night UK was better than UL. Doesn't mean it would happen again, but this past Saturday night it was true.
I'll be totally honest with you and tell you that if last year UL could have played WVU again, I think we would have won, but on Thursday night last year, UL was a better team.
Let me add this, I was in a tough position Saturday Night, one I really like UK, you know that, so part of me wanted them to win, however, I'm a BE guy and part of me want UL to win so that when WVU beat them in Nov. it would look better for us. Now that won't happen, I think if WVU runs the table it's going to be hard for them to get into the NC.
Anyway that's my $.02 and I'm enjoying the dialogue.

I do the very best I know how, the very best I can, and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out right, what is said against me won't amount to anything.
