"Wasn't doing much?" They won exactly 0 Big XII games the year before Billy Clyde arrived.

I don't think you get what I meant. I was referring to the fact that A&M sucked before he got there. Otherwise there would have been no reason to retract the statement about his not turning a program around. You just managed to comment while I was in the middle of editing.

No heart? If you call saying someone got fat by not eating right and not taking care of themselves is having no heart, then I guess I don't. Sorry, my sympathy level for someone committing the sin of gluttony is very small. I commend any efforts anyone makes to better themselves, but stating a fact, to me, is not insensitivity.

life must be entertaining sitting upon that very tall horse you're on. I guess I have to assume that you don't actually sin? That's impressive.

Given the fact that Kentucky has 1 legitimately good player (Patterson), two good young players who have been hobbled by injuries (Meeks, Jasper), one potentially great player who transferred (Alex Legion), two completely disinterested Seniors playing out the string (Bradley, Crawford) and a supporting cast of utter and complete crap, I think BCG gets a free pass for this year. Somehow I don't think they'll be losing to San Diego and UAB next year, or any othe ryear. They'll be better at the end of the season than they are now. It still may not be enough to take them to the Dance, which begs an interesting question - would the proud Big Blue Nation accept a NIT bid?

Pitino got a pass for a while. Don't think the fans see the current situation as remotely comparable though.

No, I do. But I don't call people who criticize the results of my imperfections insensitive either.

Pitino was 5-6 in his first 11 I believe. But this UK team went into the second round of the NCAA's last season.

I'm not fat you maroon, and I've told you all of that was tongue in cheek.

I'm one of the least sensitive guys on this site and I'll prove it by calling you an idiot, because maroon wasn't really strong enough.

You could call him pink, green, or purple too.

I wasn't implying you were fat. Your tongue in cheek comment is a very real reaction that alot of fat people do have.

But please, continue calling me an idiot since you completely misunderstood my post, good stuff.

I'll refer you to post 139. I won't bother putting it here since you authored it.

Can you 'splain what you're saying there or were you just typing on?

I was saying that just b/c I don't mind pointing out that most people who are fat eat too much and don't take care of themselves, doesn't mean I think I'm perfect or without sin. However, if someone points out a factual instance where I do sin or am at fault for my own bad luck or health, I don't call them insensitive whereas the general public feels you are insensitive if you say people are fat by their own doing.

Wasn't insinuating anything about you personally. You just made the comment that I didn't sin. I made sure you knew I did, but don't feel that people who point out my shortcomings are "insensitive".

you didn't need to quote me or refer to my insensitive quips to make those points.

Probably not, I don't quote to point people out, I just quote the post that causes me to make a statement. It doesn't mean I'm aiming any certain thing AT you.

It's just my way, it's kinda like you calling me an idiot without being clear on what I meant, it's not necessary, just what I do.

I didn't say the best. Nowhere, anywhere, did I say the best.

I said if you walk up to Joe Blow on the street in Eugene, Oregon, and you say:

"Sir, I'll say a conference, you tell me the first team that comes to mind. SEC"

That guy will say "Kentucky". Not b/c they are the "best", but b/c they are the most notable.

Considering that college football is more popular than college basketball and that Florida has won three national championships in the past two years, I doubt he'd say Kentucky.
