Eric Bledsoe became a scapegoat because he was associated with college basketball's empire

Good thoughts on the Bledsoe affair, too bad it wasn't from a mainstream news outlet or better yet from one of the "haters" that skulk behind Cal looking for a story...

Wow, great article.

now that is some silly shit. No way a decent writer could be so narrow and without a clue.

Good article. He is exactly right in that if Bledsoe had gone to another school in the SEC, this would not have been an issue. I still believe Donnovan from Florida is the one who leaked this to Pitino, who forwarded it to Forde, who leaked it to the media. I have no proof of that, and it is all speculation (A.K.A. I heard it from an anonymous source haha), but it makes the most sense to me. They all have a motive and hold a grudge against Cal and UK. With those clowns circling like hawks around the program we are going to see a lot more of this.

Let me make one other point. Memphis sucks as a city, unless you are a criminal or corrupt politician.

LOL
Are you really scared to come down here? I'll bet you are just a little old church lady. It's ok Peaches you stay safe in Lexington.

Good rational article. The original story and motivation for it are a sad commentary on Pete Thamel and the the New York Times. I'm still amazed at how low Thamel is willing to go, to pursue his personal agenda/vendetta. And then shows absolutely no regard or remorse for the damage caused to the minors involved. I am very disappointed Thamel has not been held accoutable for breaking privacy laws, in the Bledsoe
matter.

mike and Tony writing on this board regularly is significant.
notice we arent on your memphis blogs? (or wherever Tony is from he wont say-go figure)
Know why?
Cause we dont have a reason to.

we love our basketball and historically we are the most successful. Get over it.

I enjoy the Kentucky clown show. Just another form of entertainment. You had a decent year last year but choked. Before that you sucked. Cal MUST have the NBA type talent to win. He knows that. Schools like Butler rely on top notch coaching. But hey I know your mentality. Win at any cost. You dodged a bullit with Bledsoe and you know it. Kanter is a pro. Bullshit youselves all you want. I say the NCAA denies his eligibilty. Is it Ok for a high school player to play and be paid (his expense only) by the NBA and still be eligible for college? It is the same scenario as Kantner just a EURO team paid.

Memphis Mike, I honestly don't think I've ever seen a fan of another school act like you do for as long as you have here. I'm beginning to think Coach Cal is gay and left a jilted lover behind in Memphis because I've only seen this kind of prolonged resentment from one place and one place only, a love spurned bitch. Are you Cal's bitch cause that's the only thing that makes sense....

LOL Marc that is funny. I like your thought process, sounds like you have first hand experience of being someone's love scorned bitch. Am I insulting 'your man' (wink) too often?

Mike, when your "owned", it simply is not a good comeback to use the same premise for your reply. It's weak and shows no imagination. So... the next time you get bitch slapped think of something original for your response...

You said you believe Cal is gay. I didn't bring up gay, you did. So it must be on your mind. I really hate it that you feel jilted.

Your Fu is weak grasshopper....
