Well that, and to scare the **** out of ill-behaved children.

My father unleashed a torrent of obscenities when Cris Collinsworth caught a disputed pass down the sideline that set up a winning Florida FG in 1980. The Clown's jaw had to be picked up off the ground.
I met Collinsworth in Cincy one time in the late 2000's while standing in line at First Watch, and shared that story with him. He got a big kick out of it (of course), and picked up the tab for me and my wife. LOL
The Bluegrass Miracle though... THAT was when I really started to think that my Dad and I should start thinking about not attending games anymore. LOL The old man... well; I'd never seen him that dis-heartened.
How about the most unqualified candidate to ever run
The best counseling that I had was that I knew Kentucky basketball was just around the corner.I wonder if any Kentucky football fans have tried grief counseling to cope with it all.
You misspelled bourbon, my friend.I wonder if any Kentucky football fans have tried grief counseling to cope with it all.

Your dad sounds like my spirit animalIn 2002 I was a student at UK, I was at every Kentucky home football game that year, but the Bluegrass Miracle.
I was at home in western Kentucky and was watching the game with my dad (who loves Kentucky football more than basketball, was a football season ticket holder from the 1970s until just a few years ago.)
When LSU scored, my dad didn't say a word, he walked out at the back door and wasn't seen for hours. He owned about 100 acres back then, I don't know where he went. His truck was still there, I asked him years later where he went and he couldn't remember haha. It was like he just walked out into the woods...despondent.
That poor guy. Lost ball in high weeds.I wonder if any Kentucky football fans have tried grief counseling to cope with it all.
This pic really encapsulates Kentucky football:

Add years of cruel and unusual punishment to that.There is nothing in nature, that can induce a "fugue state" quite like Kentucky Football. There is science to back that up.
Simple Man gets a "Clownie" award for meritorious service: bravery under extreme duress.
At first, I was little mad you didn't give me a medal today, but then I remembered I already got the Kaplan award for excellence in mathematics.
Exactly. You are, to date, the ONLY recipient of the Fields Medal equivalent of a "Clownie". The solemnity of that is, well... it's pretty ****ing SOLEMN.
There is no higher honor, on the Political Forum, than a "Math Clownie"

@LineSkiCat14 - 1, 5, 6 ? maybe? (that's a young Clown)
Knowing what I know now? Don't make eye contact, and leave quickly.
Gumby has a whopping 26 followers. lol
This link whether it's accurate or not contradicts the 500 recordBorrowed from CenturyCat/GYERO: UK Football, right NOW, has an all time .500 record. He framed that statement as a measure of the FUTILITY that IS our program.
Honestly? I was shocked, and somewhat pleasantly surprised that we're AT .500
Which is I guess, an even SADDER statement. LOL
I wonder if Trump would be interested in being UK's next athletic director? CFB playoffs within 3 years?
Pump the brakes@cole@854 - Your dislike of Kentucky basketball is well documented on here. But, and maybe I'm mistaken here, I thought you were, at heart, a Kentucky Football fan. Yet you seem to almost relish in their lack of success. Please explain yourself. LOL (or set the record straight.)
Being a Cowboys, Yankees, UNC basketball fan, spawned during those teams' pinnacle of success, you seem to take the "easy way". That doesn't jibe with being a Kentucky Football fan. LOL![]()

It's actually below 500 according to this link.

But we do have our 8 time National champion basketball Wildcats to discuss in those circles when we travel southIt's really tough to travel around the South and talk sports when you're a UK fan.
No one cares about basketball. Tenn has only two consensus NCs in football. 1951 and 1998, yet it's a religion.Before Kirby, UGA had one (1980). Same deal. Hell we own the fb series head to head against Arkansas, and its religion there.But we do have our 8 time National champion basketball Wildcats to discuss in those circles when we travel south![]()
