Figured that out after I posted it....DOOH!.....

Delk pushed Bledsoe into Samardo Samuels,as far as the Cousins/Swopshire thing,you can thank the officials for not calling jump ball sooner,you don't let players roll around for 30 seconds like that.
I heard what was coming out of your little angels mouths and I didn't appreciate my 10 year old hearing it,do you have that on your little misinterpreted tape? I guess what the UL players were saying to Villanova's players was all Sunday School talk too?
Blab about your big bad RPI all you want,we'll see where it ends up at.
Funny but after all the UL crying,they sent the tape to the head of the NCAA Officiating and he said the Game Officials made the CORRECT call.
You can cover for all the Cursing,maybe the bad behavior prior to the game,but how do you ignore the fact that UL's team refused to shake hands before the game,refused to stand for the National Anthem ,they stayed in a huddle saying "We're Bad MFer's" during the National Anthem.
I think Freedom Hall is owned by the state and everybody I know stomps on the Cardinal emblem there,it's not like UL's team was there during a UK practice and it's certainly not the Poor Sportsmanship I witnessed by the UL Angels.

As bad as I hate to do this to a fellow UK fan...Does it state anywhere on the ticket that you bought that bad language is forbidden in the arena? NO<<<<

Today's ethics are terrible in both the fans and the players.

We choose to take our families and ourselves to public functions. And we must deal with what's there.

I, personally, would like to think the coaches counsel thier players on behavior. I'm sure some of the UK players dropped some of their own F bombs...Bledsoe being one.
I wish they wouldn't do it, but what are you going to do? Punch everyone that curses in front of your kid. If so, you'll either learn to let it slide or be the baddest futher mucker on the planet. Trust me, I've had to make some of those decisions myself(having an autistic kid)...I chose the 1st..LOL~~~~

That game is over......We won. Nothing can change it. One got kneed, one got elbowed, one got shoved...so what....Both teams should be looking ahead and we should be looking with them.

You had me until the full of crap assertation about refusing to stand for the national anthem. I called a friend of mine who was at the game and he said both teams were jawing back and forth before the game. He is a member of the media and said that back by the dressing rooms they were jawing back and forth and that coach Cal told the Cats they better not back down. Does your beloved coach routinely curse players from the other team? Or did he make an exception for Delk?


Wow, Delk pushed Bledsoe into Sosa? Your problem is you see what you want tosee, but not what actually happened. You even have another UK fan on here admitting that the knee was not on purpose, but you cannot take of your blue blinders long enough to see.


Where do you come up with some of the things you post? Do you make it up, or get info from someone else. If U of L sent a tape to the NCAA how come it was not reported by any news media? I seriously doubt it happended and you are losing a lot of credibility with your new allegations.

Who all stomps on the bird? Oh that's right no one but the Kayuts.

What happened with villanova? Please tell me, let me guess, you were at the game. Well I was and didn't see anything happen. Did you make this one up, or did one of your friends come up with this story?

You got me thinking Billy...If they could have had Mr. Buffer from the UFC announcing the teams...In this corner the coach with a dark history and a record of 12-0 with his elbow tossing full of piss and vinegar ready to open the can of whoop-arse on the red birds of da-ville players...your Kentucky Wildcats!

And in this corner with a hated coach that single handily dismantled the storied tradition of the cats bringing his knee throwin trash talking boys all the way from da-ville...the Louisville Cardinals!

Now...LLLLLLLeeeeetttssss get ready to RUMBLLLLEEE!!!!

[goosecreekguy]

I agree with Redneck...well said. Look ahead gentlemen, the Cats and Cards will have to settle this one on their own....next year. Until then, lets all simma don....

Man I thought you said you've been going to the gym early before work.........I thought for sure you would have chosen the 2nd. LOL

The rest of your post is absolutely spot on. The game was over several weeks ago I think.

But now I've got to take you to task for mentioning Purdue a few weeks ago. Since then a nasty 3 game losing streak before they finally notched a win against Illinois. Probably not going to win the Big10 regular season title but like I've stated before I hope both Purdue and Missouri get to the Final 4 and win it in my lifetime.

[mhall]

Purdue has a nice team, I like Hummell, solid player. Kid gets his finger bent completely sideways, 10 minutes later he's taped up on the floor scatching and clawing, tough kid.

John Adams, the NCAA's chair of officiating, said the officials correctly handled the skirmish in the first minute of Saturday's Kentucky-Louisville game. Technical fouls were assessed to Kentucky's DeMarcus Cousins and Louisville's Jared Swopshire and Reginald Delk. At issue was whether Cousins threw a purposeful elbow at Swopshire's head and should have been ejected. UK claims Cousins can be seen taking a knee to the head prior to the elbow.


"[The officials] reviewed the play and assessed an intentional personal foul to Cousins," Adams said. "It was offset by an intentional personal four on a Louisville player and they had a taunting T on another Louisville player. That taunting T resulted in the two free throws that Cousins shot as he was designated by Kentucky to shoot free throws."


As soon as I dig it up I'll post the letter and youtube that a group of Louisville fans sent to the NCAA.

Are you backtracking, or adding your own version here?

What you said was: "Funny but after all the UL crying,they sent the tape to the head of the NCAA Officiating and he said the Game Officials made the CORRECT call."

Nowhere in Andy's story does it say that U of L sent a game tape to the NCAA. It most likely didn't happen because it is not a conference game, or tournament game and in the scope of things makes no difference.

Now you are stating that FANS sent the tape? Do you really think the NCAA would even respond to such a stupid idea as fans sending tapes and lodging complaints? What most likely happend was that Andy or other members of the media contacted the NCAA to ask about the way the game was handled and that is why the statement was made.

You failed to address the other points that I called you out on. Did the Cardinal players stand for the National Anthem or not?

You said: "Delk pushed Bledsoe into Samardo Samuels,as far as the Cousins/Swopshire thing,you can thank the officials for not calling jump ball sooner,you don't let players roll around for 30 seconds like that."

It is obvious from the tape that Delk rubbed Bledsoe off a pick. It would be difficult for him to pus Bledsoe into Samardo if you look at where both players were standing.

The reason the players were on the ground so long is because the ball was loose. Once again, obvious if you watch the tape. Once the ball was tied up, the whistle was blown and then forearm shiver happens.

I would also like to know what you are referring to about the 'nova game? You ignored that as well.
