Around SBN: Jeremy Lin And How The Pac-12 Missed Him

Great article on Sosa from the CJ. It's got to make you wonder if Sosa's been reading CC.

"He hears his name mentioned mainly by those fans and commentators who would replace him with freshman Peyton Siva in the lineup. Siva, who has 31 assists and 30 turnovers, is considered to be more of a pure point guard.

Sosa finally learned not to internalize the highs, the disappointments, the praise and the slights, thanks largely to the struggles he endured as a sophomore."

Sosa, if you're reading this, know that we love you. Also know that you played a sick game against UConn. I really loved how you put Dyson in his place with that long range jumper in his face.

So is this

 the Louisville sports blog Otis George and Edgar Sosa might read if they knew it existed.

I'll be honest.

People here like to pretend that basketball players (or other people for that matter) don’t read CC. But that simply not the case. As a student, I can tell you that CC is a decently popular site, just not a lot of people post.

Add to this the fact that CC is now being quoted fairly regularly in sites like ESPN and CJ online (two places players and fans often find most of their information), and I’m sure you’d be surprised how many players actually have read this blog on more than one occassion.

Either way, Sosa is also hearing this stuff a lot on Twitter and facebook, it’s not just here.

For what it's worth

(And I’m really not trying to be cool here)

Sosa apparently does read CC (according to him). Not sure how frequently or if he was just being nice, but those are his words.

Oooh!

Ya bringin’ the heavy now eh? NOBODY talks bad about Sir Ted Knight. NOBODY. His role as Judge Elihu Smails (had to look that up) is epic. Don’t you ever…

If I were them

I would read what people are writing about me every day. This is pretty much the only site where Louisville Fans have a voice.

You mean those "Comments" threads on CJ articles don't count?

I wonder what is the ratio of UK-fan “you suck” posts to Louisville-fan “Go f yourself hillbilly” posts on a typical Louisville article on the CJ site. It wouldn’t surprise me if were greater than 1:1.

UK Fans

own us on commenting on pretty much every other forum. CJ, EPSN, Some App I downloaded on my iPhone… They can’t help it, it’s like they have online tourettes. It doesn’t matter how well Louisville is actually doing, they just want to show off their cleverness by using the word loserville.
