Living in Indiana, I hate to see IU ranked above us. I know they have feasted on cupcakes, but egads the locals are chest thumping.

Tell me about it, BCD. Both IU and Purdue fans are starting to get snippy with me.
One IU fan claims UK and IU are in talks to resume the annual game. No details yet. It would be a step up for IU for sure.

I had a guy installing a new gas oven for me over the weekend, asked me why UK was afraid to play IU. Since he was hooking up my gas line, I refrained form saying UK has nothing to gain from giving a mid major a chance.

Actually it was IU that made the series end. Cal offered to play every game in Indianapolis and IU and Crean wanted no part of that because they felt it would give UK an even bigger advantage in recruiting Indianapolis talent to UK. He had already gotten Teague and Trey Lyles was a heavy UK lean as well as a Sophomore.
UK didn’t want to play in Bloomington because of how obnoxious and rude that IU fans were to anyone wearing UK Blue during that 2011 game. I had two friends who are big time IU fans and boosters and they were embarrassed by Hoosier nation after that game. I mean the IU fans were throwing hatred “F Bombs” at an 8 year old kid.
IU basketball has the most obnoxious fan base in sports in my opinion.

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.

They are getting closer to ranking UK correctly. Like I said last week, this team should not even be ranked.
You might as well rank Portland above UK at 5-4. They have one better win (Villanova) and 1 better loss (North Carolina in a close game), and an equal loss to MSU by 1.
