Do You LIve In Ky?

Good point Walker, I hope I didn't make it sound like all Card fans are Angels because that isa certainly not the case as there is good and bad with anything. But I do feel the level of just complete OBNOXIOUSNOUS is more prevalent in the UK camp in my humble opinion.

I totally agree with ya Walker as well...But can honestly say from true personal experience....I root for my Hoosier's and most Indiana Schools. I rooted for U of L until I moved to the State of Kentucky....

When I lived in Indiana, I thought Ky fans were the worst fans in the world about being obnoxious and hatefull towards anyone who didn't root for UK.... Since it was about 99% UK fans I ever came across, the other 1% were U of L fans who hated UK.

But Ky. fans don't hold a candle to the Obnoxious , hateful , spiteful..down right mean faced U of L fans I have met since moving to the State of KY. where I now reside. Hence this is the reason i now root for Uk and Indiana and totally despise anything related to U of L except for their Baseball team....

Born and raised in Clark County but live in Frankfort now. I am a UK fan always have always will. I HATE Rick Pitino and everything he stands for. Some for leaving UK in the first place MOSTLY how he left UK. When Pitino goes away I will root for Louisville every game except when they play UK. I am the arrogant cocky jerk that certain post are directed towered this year but am also the arrogant jerk that had post directed towards him last year after the WVU game. I will also be the arrogant jerk that the post will be directed towards tomorrow around midnight after Ohio State bounces us from the tourney. If Louisville or Kentucky or Indiana fans can't handle the mud slinging then maybe they should not fire the first or any shots. Each school thinks their program is better than the rest and results from the past present or future can be turned around in any way you want to show each team in the best light. That is what being a FAN short for FANATICAL is all about. Jerks Arrogant Passionate Stupid Cocky are all words that describe fans of each team. I for one bust chops here and have no problem getting my chops busted back. I give what I get and don't see it changing. Fans are fans fanaticals are fanaticals whether it is your team my team your conference or my conference.

It's worse than the political jousting on here. The baby tit for tat posts are comical and at times downright stupid....just like the political stuff we all do.

Fans from all sports support their teams but for some reason around here it seems to define some folks lives and maybe their identity. Is it the history of the teams? The area? Growing up in one area and having the love of the team beat(not physically) into you? The need for something to root for? A recent post by Splitshot touched on some of that. I have met folks with entire rooms decked out in UK gear. I'm sorry I find that disturbing.

I'm not from around here but have lived here since 1995. Maybe thats why I don't understand or feel the UK/UL Bball history? I respect what teams have done in the past but in the end it's sports and thats all it is.

I'm pulling for UK and if UL was playing I'd be pulling for them.
