[quote]If you spent more time last Sunday thinking of ways to downgrade Louisville football's signature win over Miami than time celebrating Kentucky football's significant win over Mississippi, you may have OCD.

Quote: If you continue to insist that Kentucky leads the season series with Louisville in football, based on six UK wins from 1912 to 1924, you may have OCD.

I agree. That is funny.

But my wife heard "I hate Joe B. Hall" umpteen million times when she came down to the University of Tennessee to get her Master's degree after getting her Bachelor's at UK. So I guess it all evens out eventually.

"If you cheer wildly whenever they announce the Louisville score, and Louisville is losing, you may have OCD."

This does not happen very often anymore (in football, at least)

The funny thing is I know Kentucky fans that happen to be friends of mine that are exactly like that. What John Clay wrote may be tongue in cheek but it is damn true in this state.

The best part of the article is reading the whiney UK reader comments at the bottom.

It is classic, but widely said. It is honestly the last string of hope for UK fans in the series right now. I've been told "well, we still lead the series" several times over the last few weeks. UK just demolished UofL in those 6 games held 80 or 90 years ago. In fact UofL didn't even score in those 6 games.

Add in that 6-0 start, and UK holds the series lead 10 to 9 currently. The plan is that hopefully after next year they can't claim the series lead, even counting 90 years ago!

----------------------------------
And oh boy do stories expressing reality tee off the Big Blew fans. They just hate that their hometown paper refuses to act like UofL is bad, to the tune of 150+ online comments on this article. A few favorite comments:

"I have read the HL everyday for 25 yrs either on line or paper version. After this column by clay on 9/21 I am finished. It is clear to me that HL's strategy is to make fun of UK fans, coaches or players."

"I have a challenge for you and Mark Story. Try writing positive articles towards UK, UK fans, UK football, for 1 week! I dare you!! I bet it will never happen..."

"Why don't you apply for a job in Louisville?"

-"Has anyone ever seen John Clay with his glasses off? He might be Terry meiners, in drag! Does that forhead smell like Slick Rick's behind?"

-"Louisville Is In Indiana, Not Kentucky"
Yes, someone actually said this!

"Miami was what, 17th in the country. Here I am watching Florida and Tenn, both ranked in the top ten (every year)."
-I guess this guy was living in a cave last year when UT was 5-6, ha ha!

We've heard all week from UK fans how the win wasn't that huge over Miami, blah blah blah........

....however duely pointed out on the radio today, was, take a guess which coach got drowned in gatorade by his players this weekend in the state after their wins'. Pretty funny stuff, comparing the two teams level of accomplishments.

That hilarious considering all season leading up to the Louisville/Miami game Kentucky said that Louisville would get killed by a "real" team and expose them and the Big East as overrated. And that losing Michael Bush crushed their chances at beating Miami. Now Louisville absolutely decimates Miami and the win isn't "that big". Unreal!

Unreal but par for the course.
