You do realize that every morning when you wake up, you can actually choose NOT to be a douche bag right? Just wanted to make sure you knew that option is always available to you.

In his defense your post was pretty stupid

We just won the most games since 2008-2009 and are bringing in more talent than ever before. Not saying this year wasn't a disappointment but whole reason it was disappointing was because Pearl has raised the bar. He's far from least talented. Not perfect but damn better than our last 2 guys

My statement was about his coaching ability. There is no excuse to miss the NIT given how much talent this team had. And my bigger point was simply about not being an A hole. You can disagree with someone without having to be an A hole about it, but it seems the majority of posters on this board lack common human decency.

Fair enough. I still think least talented is comical considering guys like Kim Anderson and Jonny Jones used to coach in same league. Pearl is one of the winningest coaches in SEC trying to win at one of the worst bball programs last decade. I am willing to be a bit patient

Maybe I should have used an emoticon after the phrase "least talented. " it was simply meant as hyperbole.

You're right in that we should have at least made the NIT. But I think you're also vastly overrating the talent we had, which I guess is understandable if you're comparing to what we've had for over the last decade. We had a solid amount of potential talent with Heron and Wiley, but those 2 were never going to be the types of 5* freshmen one and dones that Kentucky gets. I think that's what our fanbase was expecting which is dumb. These guys were rated where they were based on their potential, but were lower on the 5* spectrum because they are guys that need development, and I'm sorry but that doesn't happen overnight. Basketball also isn't like football where development happens in games, in basketball most development happens in the off-season in practice, and the biggest step should be taken freshmen to sophomore year. It was unfair to expect these 2 to lead us this year.

And not to mention the utter lack of any actual upperclassmen worth a damn in our program. That had a huge effect on the mental toughness and leadership of this team IMO. And in year 3 you can't point that finger at Pearl, that's still on Barbee.

Have you tried not being a gaping vagina?

I could say the same to you, Nancy.

Completely ignore a long and relevant point only to cry about a small part at the end you must get nothing done in life

Getting nothing done in life? Graduating with high honors at a prestigious law school then becoming a highly successful attorney making loads of money. Yep, I am a slacker. Now you are on the other hand with your 21,000 posts calling out others with a fake name spending all your time on this site - you must be quite proud of yourself.

Sweeeet post count boom, bro. Showing your intelligence with that creativity already.

Too bad you were too busy crying to stop and think maybe I have so much time to post because I "graduated with high honors from engineering school with an aerospace degree and now I'm a project manager at NASA. Work is for poors."

go take comfort in "your" "accomplishments" because you seem a little to sensitive for the this place. Maybe Facebook, sharing "don't scroll past this if you believe in Jesus" posts with your grandma is more your speed.

The notion that someone needs balls in order to hang around a website where people anonymously criticize other anonymous posters is frankly, laughable. I can assure you that in order to do what I do, I need a very large pair of balls in order to be successful.

Sadly, given all of your "experience," you never learned the most important lesson of all - treating others with respect and not being a total douche.

This isn't real life. The most important lesson of the internet is - don't be a bitch or a fig.





I guess we found jangalangs alter. Completely ignoring the relevant information to the discussion to bitch and argue about stupid shite. The MO checks out
