Pre Game Fight Strategy?


The other day before the game against Fresno State, the Arizona Sate baseball team got a little hot. The players Brent Wallace and Ike Davis skirmished and that skirmish apparently spread throughout the whole team. Know everybody found out that the fight was staged apparently with the coaches knowledge. It was an attemt to loosen up the Arizona state team and give their opponents who were watching, something to think about. What is so rediculous is Arizona lost the same day. And I ask myself what do I think about their fight strategy?


My Answere: Clearly it was stupid and I would say that before the game. A fight can not get you to win the game. It can't even get you pumped up. It's a stupid idea. If somebody came up to me and said this idea I would say you are outside your damn mind. Why would you even think that. First of all college baseball teams don't get into fights, yet alone, with themselves. Second I don't want to look like an idiot on television. Arizona state was ranked 3rd nationally and they pull a stunt like that. They are the most idiotic team this seaon, no doubt.

Rajon Going to Play in Game 4


Rajon Rondo gave evry Kentucky fan last night as he hurt his ankle. he did not attend practice today but Doc Rivers aid he had the Green light for tomarrow and said it was a easy decision. That's good news to hear about Rajon .

Are Celtics still in Drivers seat?


I have to say yeah they are. Besides Kobe Bryant and Ray Allan the other side, the starters werent there. You know maybe it was fatique, they flew, I don't know 6 hours from Boston to Los Angelous. That's a very long trip in a short of time. The main reason the Celtics are in the drivers seat is mainly beacause the lakers did not play well and the Celtics almost came out with the victory. I have to say that Sasha vujacic (whatever his name is) saved the lakers last night couse, he bailed out Gasol and Odom and Derek Fisher. They all had bad games. That's why it was a low scoring game. But it's not a shocker that Odom and Gasol has not shown up. They have not played well in the playoffs this whole year. So I am thinking that Kobe has to do something that Lebron James had to do last year is that you have to carry your team to victory. It's that simple. I don't see Gasol and Odom stepping it up in the Finals. If they can't do it in the other series they can't do it in the Finals. But odds are slim that Kobe will pull this off by himself against the Celtics defense. This series is really interesting

Chuck Hayes Birthday


Notice the sun shining a little brighter today? It’s because one of the most beloved players in UK history turns 25 today and you might as well spend the rest of the night celebrating. Chuck Hayes selected UK over Kansas and came to Lexington in 2001 as somewhat of an unknown in a recruiting class including McDonald’s All-American Rashaad Carruth, Kentucky Mr. Basketball Josh Carrier and Ballard’s Adam Chiles. Despite being a Parade All-American and California’s Mr. Basketball, ESPN ranked Hayes as the 83rd overall player in the class and the 18th best small forward behind a group of players who don’t exactly get your blood pumping. And, in case you were living in a cave for the past seven years…

All Hayes did at UK was win 81% of the games he played in while posting career averages of 9 ppg and 6.8 rpg and providing the steady leadership and hustle that made him a fan favorite. In his time in Lexington, Hayes tied Alex Groza for the record for most games started by a Wildcat (110) and was named to the All-SEC Freshman Team, all three All-SEC teams, the SEC Tournament Team, the NCAA All-Region team and earned 2004 SEC Defensive Player of the Year Honors. He also played on the 2003 Pan-Am Games team. Hayes finished his career ranked 7th in rebounds, 8th in steals, 9th in blocked shots, and 35th in points. After leaving Kentucky, Hayes was named as the MVP of the Portsmouth pre-draft camp, but went undrafted. But, in typical Hayes fashion, he led the NBDL in rebounding (12.2) for about half a season and then earned a spot on the Rockets where he has become a fixture in their rotation.
