Closer than losing in OT to Kansas, after leading by 9 points with 2 minutes to go? Duh.

trust me on this--Fedex doesn't pay the insurance. At most, they'd give you the real value of the shirt $100, and then discount 80% since you used it once.

did you read the article, he says he can get another jersey but it won't be the same that its was the meaning behind that jersey and how much it meant to him, and that he really wanted to give that to his father as a present

Yes I did read it, and my comment stands. The contents inside the box are worth as much as you are willing to pay to insure it. If you aren't willing to insure it, you aren't to cry a river when the contents get destroyed.

i think you're missing the point, he isn't mad about losing the jersey because of its value, he is mad about them throwing the jersey away because of the sentimental value and what that jersey meant to him. whether he paid $6 or $10,000 he's not getting back a jersey that was extremely valuable to him

and something that's alittle wierd is how Memphis fans are rushing to the defense of fedex solely because they have naming right to your arena (which isnt even owned by Umemphis)

We're not rushing to the defense of FedEx, except for the guy who works there. We're rushing at the chance to tweak Louisville fans, lol.

Oh, not to mention, do you know nothing about the relationship between FedEx and the University of Memphis? The founder and CEO, Fred Smith, is probably our biggest benefactor in history. He's the one who pays the bill for our coaches, in both sports. He's the one who stumps for us when we try to move up to a better conference. And his son played football for us.

It has NOTHING to do with playing in a building with the FedEx name on it, lol.

Plus, tweaking us about playing there, and not on campus, is sorta like tweaking India for having the Taj Mahal, but building it two miles away from the ideal location. 03-lmfao

The ugliest dumpiest urban blight of a campus in america. seriously, has anyone actually rode through that armpit lately. i thought it was bad in the 80's. i am surprised fed ex even will deliver there. no wonder they are always here telling us how great they are and needing affirmation. god what a dump. wait until the folks from uva, chapel hill and clemson visit. they are gonna faint.

Come on shere, compared to the ghetto that is mempiss, not even taking into consideration that it is the murder capital of the south, you sure talk alot of sh1t about things you know absolutely nothing about. That is what makes getting away from you hilljacks even better. LOL!

The OFFICIAL record says V-A-C-A-T-E-D. Most fans remember it as the biggest CHOKE job ever in the ncaa finals. LOL!

Quote:"I said do I have to send the jersey back? They said yes, you have to send it back," he said.

All the way back to the Louisville packing facility where it was originally shipped which is where the unthinkable happened. The jersey got thrown away.

of course it got stolen in louisville, probably by a uk fan. the whole state sucks

Luck for You. Probably why Tennessee hasn't fallen into the Abyss yet.

I've never understood why some Louisville fans are so insecure?

Seriously, as much as you guys have to be proud of, why do so many of you have such fragile egos?

There are a bunch of Card fans that are without a doubt the easiest bunch to get all worked into a frenzy that most of us have ever seen.

It's amazingly entertaining to watch.

Funniest thing about it is that it has absolutely ZERO to do with them personally. That's perhaps the weirdest thing about message boards IMO.

True --- up by 9 with 2 minutes left. Then, at the end with 12 seconds on the clock and up by 3 Calipari failed to call for a foul. So major choke AND poor, poor floor coaching.
