[QUOTE=mhall;512352]Who were they..show me the proof or it ain't so...Dude you have wore this out...give it a break..
Oh I bet I know...............Digger Phelps, LMAO[/QUOTE]
Jay Bilas said Louisville's defense was "organized fouling" on the radio this morning and Mike Tirico said "Louisville players wouldn't play 5-6 minutes a game in the NBA playing the way they do before they fouled out."
I'm not sure I have proof since it's on the radio, but that's what was said.
I guess they're just "haters" too, though. Nobody can ever have an opinion without an agenda, right?

[QUOTE=know1;512342]If the refs call the game like they should, I think Michigan has a shot. Several national media members out there today saying Louisville gets away with a ton of fouling.
I've said where I stand. I could root for Louisville - they have some very nice players, but I can't root for Pitino. I really hope he never wins another championship.[/QUOTE]
Pitino's defense has been that way everywhere. I hated it at KY and I especially HATE it at Louisville........they play that way until the get into foul trouble and then cards fans BITCH and COMPLAIN about how horribly the game was called.
Sorry boys, but Know1 is spot on in this regard.......doesn't mean I will not watch the game and root for the Cards, but they do get a way with a **** ton of stuff most teams don't.
If the game is called close, or even partially close, Louisville will foul out a few players.

Here's my take on this so called foul fest you guys are always beating your drums about.
If you play on ball defense and press as much as Pitino demands, YES you are going to foul more than most on a percentage basis.
It is then up to the Ref's to call the game properly and foul every one of them out if need be. If they don't call the foul's then they either missed it or they are letting them play.
It is not the team's fault if they play hard nosed defense and get either awarded so called rough play or it's called closely.
Witchita St versus Louisville was called VERY close and the poor, pitaful ''fouling on every play'' Cardinals still won.
Last night I saw Chane Behannon on three poss's down low get absolutely MUGGED, MAULED....And guess what...No foul call...Who cares they were letting the kids decide the game.
If the players can't stand the heat...........keep your skirt wearing ass on the portch, thats just how I see it..
GO CARDS

[QUOTE=mhall;512320]Can't for the life of me understand why in state people would pull for Michigan, hating a coach isn't good enough for me. I hate Calipari more than anything that breathes air and I still pulled for Kentucky after Louisville went out last year. Kentucky hate is like Cancer there is no known cure...[/QUOTE]
Man you're spot on with that comment! I'm a fair weather Card fan at best, I don't keep up with sports much at all, seems like I always have somehting better to do or something more important to do...I pull for the Cards everytime though if they play Kentucky....but I will ALWAYS pull for Kentucky if the Cards are not playing against them, ALWAYS! I don't understand the "haters"....to me....if you live in Kentucky, or if you were raised in Kentucky and your heart is in Kentucky....then you should cheer on ANY team from the state of Kentucky.

I love sports!! NASCAR, college bball and on and on but I don't take it so serious that it affects me or my comments to others. It's sports period. I pulled for UL because my Gators were out and UK was never in it.
Plus, I love to see a person or team make a run at a record. Perfection at it's finest or a run of epic proportions whatever you want to call it in sports...I just love to see greatness.
The Miami Heat (not my team) is another example. I was hoping they would break that record of consecutive wins. Why? It would have been a great thing for them. Now Pitino (not my coach) he set another record and it was an accomplishment that others will strive to beat. I love stuff like that.
