IMHO, we should cut the ‘cats some slack since that was a particularly hard loss. My wife, a devoted UK fan, was quietly devastated by the loss.
We certainly need to cut some slack for the most spoiled fans in the country.
He is Risen!
Yes, it’s okay for a black player to call a white player a f***** n*****, regardless of the situation. After all, he’s just a young man./s
Thank You, AB, for such a Fine Thread after
such a (UK) Devastating Loss.
Opppsss! Wrong Thread! ..
where's mah Basketball Jones!
I think that comment reveals the difference between UK and Wisconsin. Wisconsin had a gang of mature seniors.
I get that plus he's, what, 19 years old?
Conversely, these kids are coached on how they're supposed to conduct themselves at these pressers. They've been told they represent the university and he represented it quite poorly.
It's easy to be gracious in victory but in defeat he spewed out bile.
As a result, today, rather than focusing in on what a great season Kentucky had, some people are talking about this lack of sportsmanship and how the UK fans were setting fires after their loss.
Hopefully, this young man learns more from this than, "Oops, I got caught, let me show them how brave I am by apologizing on Twitter".
Congratulations to your wife's team, though, on setting the NCAA single season record for most wins.
Yeah,I think it’s petty to pick on any of the KY players for something like this right now. Maybe he’ll learn, but still that was a hard loss, and they get interviewed so soon after the game when their emotions are raw.
