I see tons of posts about how boggie is doing how john wall etc etc etc in the nba.
Maybe I am the only one on the TCD but my whole fan hood is about the University of Kentucky and how our program is doing .
I of course like to see them all succeed and do well but really I could care less once they leave us especially now that we only know them for one year it seems.
Am I the only one who feels this way or are their others?

I'm really not an NBA fan. So I guess I'm like you. I wish them success but I lose interest once they leave UK.

I don't follow the NBA at all. I hope our ex-UK players do well in life, but not enough to ever watch an NBA game. I actually care more about our people who served 20 or more years in the military, and receive only 2.5% of their pay, per year they served, while those in congress only have to serve 5 years, to draw a pension.

I hate the NBA with a passion, but I am different. I do like to hear how each former Ky player is doing. I like to hear their stats, whether they made the all star team, etc, etc. All that impacts recruiting and my personal pride in the program.

I don't go looking for info or NBA games but I'll listen to it if it involves one of our guys.

I have never really been an NBA fan. I want to see the young men who go through our program be successful in life, whether it be the NBA or private business but I do not follow their careers in the NBA once they leave UK.

I like to watch some of the playoff games and the finals. I will stop and watch former UK players from time to time and like hearing about them doing well. But I don't follow a NBA team just because they have a former UK player.

I think I am the only NBA fan on the site. I actually watch many more NBA games than College games these days. Other than watching UK play, I find the college game extremely boring anymore. I use to watch tons of college games and no NBA games but I made the switch about 5 years ago.
I just think the NBA has a much better product than the college game now (I use to feel vice versa). I can't wait for the NBA finals. I just wish the Cavs were at full strength as it could have been an epic finals. I think Golden State should win in 5 or 6. They are solid at both ends of the floor.
-------------------- Wife's Mad. Told me we never talk anymore. And just last nite while watching super bowl told her 2 or 3 times to get me a coke and popcorn. Also told her not to forget to take out trash in the morning. Ain't that something. Also told me I was too indecisive. Can't figure out what to do about that. One nice thing I guess. She called me a pro crastinator. Don't know what a crastinator is but I guess I'm a good one for her to call me a pro. Gonna wait til tomorrow to look that up though. I love her but somrtimes can't help but thinking I should have told uncle Junior to keep his coon hound pup and stevens double barrel and also his youngest daughter.
