    saying on ESPN that no matter what they think in North Carolina, Louisville vs. Kentucky is the best college basketball rivalry and Kentucky is the best state in college basketball. I know I'm very biased but that statement pissed me off very badly, and you can still tell he's pissed about that Duke game, but he honestly can't say that there is a better rivalry than Duke-UNC in college basketball and the state of North Carolina has more national titles than the state of Kentucky. They say Kentucky has 7 titles but 5 of those were way back in the day with Adolph Rupp, and they haven't been to the final four in this century. Anyone who watched those two Duke-UNC games knows that that is the best rivalry in all of college basketball. Louisville aren't even in the same conference or play for a conference title. Hasn't UNC waxed Kentucky's ass for the past couple of years anyway? Him making that statement actually made me feel glad that Roy Williams was back in North Carolina for a second. I'll take Duke, UNC, Wake, and N.C. State over Kentucky and Louisville anyday.

    Yeah, I had to laugh that Pitino is still being a bitch about the chest stomp. He followed that up by saying Kentucky had class. OK fucker, I guess the four harsh NCAA investigations/near death penalty/racist coach really exudes class to you. Oh yeah, what about personal class Rick? Dumping your team for $50 mil, trashing Celtic fans for wanting results, or joining your fanbase's rival team, how's that for class?

    Pitino sucks a fat cock, always has, and always will. He's a bitch wearing pants, and I'm sick of seeing his smug mug on the tube.

    UK has as many championships as Duke and UNC combined.

    UL has 2, but may have more soon.

    There is a lot of history in the Bluegrass state, but I'm not sure which rivalry is bigger. Then again, what the fuck does a game matter if you didn't go to either school?

    Maybe in Kentucky the Kentucky.UL rivalry is bigger, but judging from the promotion of every national news outlet the Duke/UNC matchup may be the top rivalry in all of sports.

    Really. And I'll bet there aren't too many Indianans too happy with Ricky's assessment.
