What Kentucky means to me

Kentucky is the obsession of a largely rural and desolate wasteland where mother fuckers can’t read a lick or tell you who the president is but can name you the entire roster for every UK basketball team from the last 15 years.

My favorite one.

some good people. Kentucky is some great friends of mine.

That said, Kentucky is ALSO a subtly racist boor, well-personified by the Joe B. impersonator on Terry Meiners’ radio show.

Did anyone happen to read KSR’s earlier version of this post? I highly recommend it. You’ll uncover within such gems as “Louisville is the way my poop smells, HURR!” and “Louisville was once molested as a child by a proud member of the BBN.”

I am not making this up.

Kentucky, ladies and gentlemen.

today is that day. avoid your twitter feeds and internet. I like this post, we need a UK Hate Day. I’ve been begging for one for years.

- a new t-shirt for every occassion, see being ranked #1 for like two weeks, scoring 54 points in a game, the list goes on and on
- making up stupid names for things and acting like everyone in the country is not cool for not knowing about it.
- always thinking that whoever your coach is, he is the greatest coach ever, unless he is African american (see Joker and Tubby)
- listening to Matt Jones and Joe B Hall like they are ministers preaching the word
- following obscure sports writers who blast louisville and then re tweeting to all your UofL friends
- is somehow being able to get off work and make it to any location that BBN is playing and using the phrase “blue always gets in”
- saying you bleed blue “there is something wrong with that”
- saying you are not interested in UofL and that we are obsessed with you, but then going to every part of our coaches trial and giving a play by play on your BBN website.
- the only compliment you can give to any player other than your own is “imagine how he would perform in the dribble drive”
- dating your sister and saying she looks like Ashley Judd
- trolling other websites (ITV, CC, ESPN, CJ, and putting stupid comments that only the worst UK fans will understand.
- wearing Jorts, and acting like it is cool.
- doing a dance and acting like it is sweeping the nation
- going to UofL events and wearing UK shirts, just to be a dick
- sporting a mullet and a handlebar mustache
- wearing shorts year round and claiming you aren’t cold
- having the rest of the country make fun of you constantly and claim they just envy your past and fear your future (t-shirt made)
- I have hated UK since I was born, I have had some of the worst UK fans around me in my life, and have had to go through the same things many of us have. ( the Pitino years, the Tubby Years, Coach Cal, the JV teams, 1996 and 1998. I don’t know about any of you, but the Billy Clyde years were two of the best years of my life as a sports fan, not only because of UL’s success, but because of UK’s failure and the almost catastrophic reaction of UK fans. I am very passionate about UL sports and would consider myself borderline obsessive ( I think my wife would second that during football and basketball season), but our obsessive is different then them, I am logical about our shortcomings and can have a argument without throwing out things we have done in the past. Sorry for taking up so much so much space, Go Cards. Beat UK.
P.S. I think our football entrance should consist of Vance Bedford saying get on the train and then the playing of Crazy train by Ozzy Osbourne.

You mad, dawg?

Kentucky is the message board Nazi that states they are trying to have an intelligent conversation with a U of L fan, yet still writes things like Loserville and Little Brother.

Kentucky is 3 years ago hating John Calipari, and now calling him the second coming of Jesus in a tuxedo t-shirt.

Kentucky is the female UK grad/ ex basketball groupie that proclaims Kentucky is great, yet can’t name one player on a UK roster.

Thank you, Forrest Gump.

I SEEN HOW NO GOOD WILL STEIN IS

Complaining about urban culture then doing the dougie John Wall dance in your jorts.
Making fun of nicknames like TWill and E5 but then cheering in a deep country voice for: “my boy Boogie”. Git er done!
Having a mascot that has a dong in it’s mouth for two decades and not changing it.
Having a stadium and arena that were built in the 70s. Can ya dig it!
Worshiping a city that has an unfinished castle and a corn field airport as it’s main attraction.

Kentucky means calling Louisville “n$&@&$ ball”, all theough th 90s because you had a couple of white guys on your team to go with the black guys. But only if there were no black people around; then when there were you called it “street ball” in a not so clever attempt to hide your racism.

calling your rival “little brother” then holding #louisvillehateday and not realizing this implies you hate your little brother.

I cringe a bit when I see a heading like this because frankly I love the state of Kentucky and its people….it’s truly a beautiful and friendly state and place in this often hard, ugly world of ours.

And I’ve traveled and seen a bit in my time….

So, I absolutely HATE UK and Big Blue and the Mildcats, etc.

But I love our state….it has its problems , but it’s a pretty damn good place

s’posed to be SEC.

still couldn’t make it across the goal line….

You are 17 years old, your father, who had just died of colon cancer, left you a POS Chevy Chevette that, at the time meant everything in the world to you because HE gave it to you. So you get an invitation to play in a summer league in Lexington by a coach who you met through a travel team. It never occurs to you that that might not be a good idea since UL just won a National Championship. You go, and at the end of your first day, you come out to the parking lot and find your car destroyed. Completely. Windows busted, tires slashed, baseball bat to the hood, fenders, sides.
And on your hood is your license plate (which, of course, says, “Jefferson County” on it. Next to it, scraped into the paint, is the words, " Go home UL fag"…
I was a just as much of a Kentucky fan as a UL one at the time.
The Lexington police, when they came to take the report, thought the whole situation was quite funny.
THAT was Kentucky back then and after the recent keying incident at UL, obviously still is today. Painful shit to think about.

THIS POST. You nail it every fucking time.

Knowing Louisville fans are smarter & more clever. Which is why they hate CC, because they can’t come up with an insult that doesn’t include little brother, Ricky three stacks, or line beards.

GO CARDS. Beat Kentucky

It’s the combination of the two. Stupid people who can’t even manage their own lives being arrogant about events they had no involvement in at all are irritating to the point of contemplating murder. That’s UK fandom in a nutshell.

a 40 degree day. Ain’t nobody got nothing to say about a 40-degree day.

Making fun of Louisville for being a “commuter school” and five minutes later admitting that, despite going to UK for four years (a rarity), you never once lived on campus.

This actually happened with a guy at work.

was writing /drops mic at the end.

KSR makes fun of Louisvillians for having racially confused white boys.. May I present to you Jorts recent video on Louisville Hate Day.. Pot.Kettle.Black KSR and since he announced hes gonna be at the game someone remind him he’s white
