Long Time, First Time

[EastCoastYoungCat]

Hello to everyone. I’m new to the board but I’ve been a reader now frequently(EVERYDAY) for about the past 3-4 years. I’m 25 and honestly didn’t really get into CBB until about 2009-2010 and of course it was Cal coming to UK that made me fall in love with CBB as a whole and I guess this new era of CBB. But I’ve always watched basketball and pretty much every American sport.

So I guess I represent the “younger” generation of fans that aren’t necessarily viewed in positive light here I suppose and understandably at times IMO. However, I live and grew up in Baltimore, I played football, basketball, and baseball growing up and am a former college football player myself and am still active in sports to this days and probably forever. Went to school in the DMV/DC area and frequent there.

I decided to make this account because I felt as though I could bring some good/fair points and also be sort of a bridge and reason to help bring the points and clarity to the mindsets of young recruits today to this board, as I am close with many and have many peers I talk to often who are in similar positions in multiple sports including basketball of course. So hello and I apologize for the long initial post but just my spill and introduction to you all!!

[EastCoastYoungCat]

Look I understand lol. Like I've said I've watched this board everyday. Nobody will believe me for awhile but hey Gonzo! I really appreciate a lot of your points/thoughts one of the few posters on my list who I just always stop scrolling and read.

 

[EastCoastYoungCat]

Also do not like that porn bs on here either I'm not for that. Also, FYI you can look up Bowie, MD. I'm a free user so it's slowing me down from responding to you guys.

Welcome to the board! This is a fun group of people who are really softees at heart. Pull up a chair and dive right in. I always learn from everyone here, including the youngsters. God’s blessings.

 

[BassProCat]

Whose your fav walk on at UK?...Go!

 

[EastCoastYoungCat]

So who are your other teams?

My teams are:
Redskins(blame my dad)
O's
Celtics loved Pierce and then the BIg 3 did it for me
UK Basketball
Florida State Football

Also, if it seems like there's not many home teams it's because I'm from Baltimore and schools like UMD, and others that are close by aren't considered home to us.

Seems to be a lot of negativity on here lately, so I've been reading more than posting.

 

[EastCoastYoungCat]

Welcome aboard bro!

Thanks bro! Just trying to bring some much needed positivity.

That and scat porn...lol...good ole Rafters.

It baffles me that people would "read a board" for 3-4 years and never say anything. Why exactly?

Honestly I would lump a person that does that into the group of people with two first names.

 

[CatJack]

Guess I picked the wrong time to sign up. Not a lot of trust going around in this post for the op.

I don't claim to represent any generation of fans or have any special insight. I caught the cat fever from my dad and granddad, and I just like to read other people's opinions on a shared interest.

Man it's so much going on on here anyway I figured why bother for a long time. It became entertaining at times well the crazies, now they're annoying.

Straight bandwagon on college sports...all good though.

So whom should I be a college fan of?

 

[BlueVelvetFog]

So whom should I be a college fan of?

We have a football team.

 

[EastCoastYoungCat]

We have a football team.

Like I stated I wasn't into CBB until later I was already a FSU fan. But I love what Stoops has done in building the program. I watch the games but can't lie and say I was/am a fan.

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

only 25? You ain’t got no business in these parts boy!



..I’m 29, I’ve seen things

 

[EastCoastYoungCat]

Shoot

only 25? You ain’t got no business in these parts boy!

This is something about our football program we’re proud of
