Calipari set to lose 2nd final 4 appearance
« on: May 28, 2009, 08:31:35 am »
It seems Derrick Rose may have not actually taken his own SAT.  Good job Kentucky, enjoy the probation that Coach Cal is most assuredly already working on.

Crazy Joe McCluskey was fucking nuts.  It's why they called him Crazy Joe.

But, but, but... his name isn't mentioned in the report!

Yes, I like how ESPN needed a source to confirm it was Rose.  It would be much too difficult to look at Memphis' 2007-8 roster and see that there was only 1 one and done player on it.  Much better to go with anonymous sources close to the Memphis program instead of simple facts.

The anonymous source is one of the most fabled dudes in all of sports reporting.  Couldn't get and confirm the gossip without that guy.

The anonymous source gets all of Tim Tebow's rejected offers.

I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

Really, though, I'm not THAT important.

An earlier version of that article than what's up there now included a quote from Univ. of Kentucky spokesman Jimmy Stanton. Yes, the former Astros media relations director.

Tim Floyd, competitor that he is, is apparently unwilling to cede all of the headlines to Calipari (story).
