Ah well...GO CATS!!!!!
And I'll tell you, not that I was harboring much hate for Rick Pitino before...but I actually think he was quite classy in his pre-game interview with Coach Cal and Jim Rome. I thought his post-game comments were classy. Making the remark that he and his team were pulling for UK to win it all and bring the trophy back to the state was a classy comment. As much as the fanbase and the media wants to believe that Pitino and Cal hate each other's guts, they didn't really act like it in the interview. Maybe it was for the cameras...or maybe the media likes to exaggerate that? (I know, hard to believe that the media would ever stretch the truth.)
Regardless, I thought both Louisville and Kentucky coaches and players acted in a manner that they can be proud of - Good show for the bluegrass.
