At some point, UK's lunatic fan base will decrease the fmv of the franchise.

Not in more than a half century. The Cats are the Kentuckians' symbolic army. Sat in a Louisville bar one night (pouring Maker's down) until about three with a UK professor. He explained UK's "us against the world" attitude.

Probably the biggest dichotomy between rich and poor of any state. And nearly all watch the Cats. And they used to listen to the Cats before electricity was available.

It is a helluva story. And I loved every minute. I don't care much for the "one and done" method of today, but over the decades, Kentucky has earned every dime it's worth today.

I admire the hell out them.
