U6 not going to shoot like this every night.
That's the only thing I hate about basketball. You can play someone and they just hit every damn shot. And there's nothing you can do. You don't really see that kind of thing in other sports.

Nice fight by the cats in this half though. Kam Williams has to get more playing time.

Very true. It’s why the NCAA Tournament is honestly the worst way to crown a champ.

It’s hard to do that in football. If you’re bigger, faster, and stronger then it’s hard to stop that which is why there’s not much parity in college football.

Baseball is the closest thing to basketball where a pitcher just has an off day and anyone can get beat.

I'm happy by the fight the team showed in the 2nd half. They could've easily gave up and lost by 30+.

One positive thing from tonight...it doesn't appear shooting will be any issue like we all thought it would be. If this game is any indication.

Defense wasn't great (did get a little better as the game went on)...though UL was even hitting contested shots.

Aberdeen may be the teams best player and not Oweh. How does Oweh still have that hitch in his shot?

I guess I just disagree. I don't see anything respectable about getting blown out by a UL team that doesn't have a talent advantage on us, after we broke the bank to go out and get veteran/tough "dawgs"...

It's not the end of the world, but it's a pretty bad look; giving up 96, after, like I said...

8 points is not a blow out. No surprise either this early in the season. The team hasn't had time to gel yet. Give it time. I can give many examples of great UK teams getting beat in November.

There is way more to it than an 8 point margin. We got worked...

I said it's not the end of the world, but let's own it.

And yes, UL paid players as well. About a third of what WE did. LOL

What a bad day. UK loses to the birds. My 16-year old furnace had a crack in the heat exchanger, filled my house with smoke and carbon monoxide. House full of really fine firemen and firewomen. Scared the hell out of my dog and wife with all the alarms going off. And to top it off, today is my 65th birthday. My birthday gift? A new Trane furnace.

"Let's go over a Pothole Pete's record: there were 85 near-misses in the Potomac before the DCA air crash. Pete did NOTHING. He spent $80 billion on DEI and on climate change."

"He lowered the standards for training at the FAA. He focused on pronouns at the FAA, changing those things, but never worked to fix the air traffic control system. Didn't work on bringing more air traffic controllers into the system."

"But the truth is, he BARELY showed up at the DOT. He was in Michigan and other places, but he was No-Show Pete. And now he wants to rewrite it so he can run for president. And he's going after me and President Trump. We're NOT going to take it."

Republicans - “we want smaller government and less handouts”

also republicans -“zomg, king Trump saved Xmas for us with this handout. Heil Donald!”
Crazy has returned to the board offering things no one is saying. Too bad you just cannot attempt to make a point without playing the fool.

now, try to describe Clarence Thomas.

Isn't this the nasty chick that filmed herself driving from polling station to polling station to cheat?


Notice when she said “fight back” she showed a pic of her in a kick boxing workout. The left hand leading the way when it comes making politics violent. It’s a little part of her video, but the words now are being demonstrated with actual physicality, when in the past they would downplaying the meaning of their words.

Pretty woman with an incredible amount of hubris and a teenage lexicon. As to Mandumi, he is not the first to lie and offer craziness to the “people.” We all saw it in high school when some kid said he would turn the water fountains into soda fountains or something ridiculously similar. People are fools and they will reap the angst of their foolishness. It is hard to predict good things for NYC over the next 4 years.

22 million dollar roster and lose to Louisville.
Concerning but it’s early.

Not just lose, but almost run off the court. My biggest concern by far with Pope is roster. I voiced my concern in the offseason when i saw the people he selected. Not only did we pay a fortune, but Pope chose all role players.

JQ needs to be legit great. Otherwise every time we face an elite talent, we're going to be in trouble.

She has never played chess one time...unless there was chessboard under Willie Brown's dick...


Worse candidate ever? Still with the cackle and the drunk voice. She says she was not going to be pulled into the game and she stuck to her plan. Well, she got crushed. Bad plan. Bad attempt to revise history. All from some one anointed to run and not elected. What a total lack of insight.

Cats outshot the Cards for the game.

UK got boatraced and the final score was fools gold thanks to Chandler and Aberdeen.

Pope's in and out sub patterns would make a tilt-a-whirl rider dizzy.....hurts the team/flow. UK will get better over the course of the season if, and only if, he goes with his top 7 or 8 tops.

Cards are going to be a matchup problem for many.

I actually love nyc so i hate what is coming. Midtown is the neighborhood I'm going to pay attention to.

No one living there or having office space there did it because it was a good financial decision. It was all about appearances and brand building. Money alone wont drive their decision because they'll never run out of money.

All the other stuff will drive their decisions. Crime, socialist state takeover of private business, influx of Muslims, etc.

So we will see what happens in that section of town.

Brown was the most talented player on the court and the German looked like the best big man. I see talent as about even.
