Keep it classy Kentucky...

Simple, yet effective...

Firefly looks like they are going after some of Trek's market...

Cancellara's collarbone...(no shit). They didn't even bother with plates and screws. They just rodded the flipping thing! Bet that shit feels GOOD today! Hope he enjoys secondary security checks at the airport!

I may need to re-think my stance on swimming.

Now, on to the show...



So Kentucky won the NCAA BouncyBall Championship last night. WooHoo! WooHoo cares?
Evidently, the students of UK, and the residents of Lexington care SO much that they rioted, burned cars, broke windows, and a guy got SHOT! What a celebration of a win! Keep it classy you over-entitled douchebags. Then again, had USC won, no one would have even shown up. That's just how ineffectual Carolina fans are. Another rant for another day...I digress...

Calipari bought the Championship...plain and simple. Let's just say that recruiting violations follow him like a small, well-trained dog. UMass? Memphis? Yeah, vacating wins and Championships is a good way to build a legacy. Kentucky turned the page from the days of Adolph Rupp, Joe B. Hall, and Tubby Smith. All honest guys and great coaches. When you turn to guys like Pitino and Calipari, you seemingly welcome trouble with the NCAA. I guess winning and the almighty dollar have become more important at UK.

Such is the reason that I turned my back on college basketball years ago. It's little more than a minor-league feeder system for the NBA. Sad part? Most of the guys either NEVER go to the NBA, or if they do, only play for 3-4 years. They piss all of their money away, and end up the tallest employee at the Water Department. And most leave college early...without that sheepskin...and don't go back...

It makes the World of professional cycling look squeeky clean. What's worse. whacking up some illegal PEDs in order to provide for your family, or the colleges and NCAA using the "student" athletes as little more than de facto gladiators?



Speaking of the riots in Kentucky, last I checked, I hadn't heard of any riots in Brugge or Kortrijk last Sunday after Boonen won Flanders!
