The Record of Wrongs: Kentucky Wildcats

That is one of the funniest pictures I think I have seen a long time. A Tapestry of “Where’s Waldo” getting slapped in the sea of Memphis haters. It looks like there were more birds flying in that arena that night than in a sanctuary.

Pearl actually punishes his players when they break the law!

Hahahaha, do you get it? Because Calipari doesn’t.

Found here.

For a large segment of this state, which had spent the first 45 days of Calipari’s tenure delirious over the coach’s instant recruiting success and rampant charisma, the strategy seems to be a spirited umbrella defense:

Do not rain on our upcoming parade.

Do not sully the name of our savior coach, no matter the messes he left behind at his last two collegiate stops.

And do not criticize our administration for hiring Calipari while his program was under investigation for major violations, even if the same administration passed on Calipari two years earlier because of concerns about his methods when his program was not under investigation.

The Big Blue chorus: We’re happy for the first time in a long time over here, OK?!? Don’t ruin it!

But most Wildcats fans don’t want to hear any of that at the moment. The sun is shining brighter than it has in a long while on their old Kentucky home. They want their winner and they want him now, and they’re not worried about what happened at his previous place of employment.

Which is probably exactly how Memphis fans felt when John Calipari came to them 10 years ago.

Ask them how they feel today.

Found here.

Make no mistake about it though: The Tennessee-Memphis matchup later tonight is THE game to watch…And I’m not saying this because both teams play an up-tempo style, score shitloads of points, and feature several future NBA players. No, it’s more or less about the opposing coaches who love to ham it up for the cameras:

Tennessee’s Bruce Pearl likes to show people that 47, he can still pimp those blonde, southern belle bombshells

Whereas, John Calipari displays the incredible talent of randomly bursting into a "chicken dance" without warning.

When we went up to Bowling Green, Ohio, for curling regionals this year, we stopped at a Chik-Fil-A (sp?) up near Lexington to get lunch. Because we were cutting the timing a little close, I was wearing my curling clothes, including a Tennessee hoodie.

So I get up to the front of the line where one of the assistant managers was taking orders (it was busy), and the first words out of his mouth:

You know that Kentucky’s going to whip Tennessee, right?

I thought that was pretty funny.

let’s capitalize while we can

game barely underway, and he’a already throwing bows:

Just for fun jabs to make against them. This comment during the middle of the Gardner-Webb game has me in stitches, just for it’s humor value:

Look on the bright side
At least with them not going to NY, they have an extra week of practice to figure out how not to suck.

Jodie Meeks just hit another 3….

Got to get to a meeting, its all in fun. I respect the Vols more than any other SEC program.

And only one mentions Worldwide Wes. Dude is an integral part of the filth that is Calipari. I mean, remember this: http://www.rockytoptalk.com/2009/7/19/954393/rivals-2-pg-josh-selby-decommits ?

I don’t understand how this guy is allowed to be around college athletics at all without being fined like crazy, much less to the extent he is involved. It really is only a matter of time before the UK program sees sanctions like Alabama did in the mid-90s.

1. I never get tired of reading that “open letter” to Calipari from The Hog. This is my favorite part:

You have already let it be known that “playing Tennessee is not beneficial to your national schedule”. What does [Bruce Pearl] not understand about this? Maybe you should consider sending Coach Pearl a letter telling him to leave you alone. Something like this: MEMO TO BRUCE- I DON’T HAVE TIME TO PLAY YOU. I AM GREASING THE HELL OUT OF MY HAIR AND WATCHING FILM ON EASTERN CAROLINA. See if he has some smart response to that one.

2. I hate John “Greaseball” Calipari" with the white hot heat of a thousand South Alabama suns.

3. I had never seen the “Kick Calipari” thing before. That is priceless.

4. John Calipari is a slimey slimeball, and unworthy of coaching in the SEC. Shame on Kentucky for bringing him and the Memphis roster with him.

5. I understand what golfballs03 is saying — I know btcoop71 is not a troll in the traditional sense, and everyone knows him, but if some random guy showed up and posted something like the “cons” picture, would he be a troll?

6. To add to the record of wrongs, I give you “CatsPause” and the large percentage of posters who post things like this (posted after the loss @ South Carolina:

I am not a sore loser and never will be. We deserved to be beat for the
way we played last night. However, I did notice something that really
stood out to me. Downey is without a doubt the most “PROTECTED” guard in
the league. Numerous times he took it to the lane with little to no
contact and the whistle was automatic. The call on Liggins on the 2
second play was absolutely stupid. Hell, Liggins was laying on the floor.
JW got hammered on a layup at the other end with no whistle. Referees
are homers except in Rupp. It is almost like a stigma that we are not
to get any questionable calls. Last night proved to me you better be 10
points better than any team you play on the road or you will get your
azz handed to you. Screw SEC officiating the absolute worst of any conference
and always has been. Go CATS!!!!!!!

Oh, and did I mention? I hate John Calipari.

I won’t be in for this one. I’ll be watching the game, but not with internet access. I know, I know, it’s horrid. Watch the wrong KU game for me, and keep comments rolling!

Watch the wrong KU game for me, …

Classic.
