Woman punches black bear, Top 10 Favorite Wildcats since '96, funny athletes, & free speech


Due to the popularity of my top 5 yesterday, I decided to make a couple more...


Top 10 Kentucky Wildcats since 1996

10. Patrick Patterson (One of the few bright spots of the Gilespe era. He was a great player on a terrible team)

 9. Keith Bogans (As a freshman started I believe every game all the way through his senior year.  He stayed all four years and has a solid nba career)

8. Antoine Walker (Key piece of the 96 championship team. He was electrifying and fun to watch)

7. Jamaal Magloire (Cousins before Cousins was Cousins, bad boy attitude and would fight 
for the blue and white)

6. Nazr Mohammed (Had a few conversations with him on twitter so that helped move him up the list but he was also a great center and hard worker)

5. Rajon Rondo (Loved his penetration and ability to find the open guy. He couldnt hit a three but didnt need to)

4. Ron Mercer (As a freshman key contributer to the 96 team and almost lead the Cats to a national title in 97)

3. Jodie Meeks (Scoring record. Carried the Cats along with Patterson through the rough Gilespe era basically playing 2 on 5 every night)

2. Tayshaun Prince (Southpaw. Could hit the three. could post you up. stayed all four years. leader. Who could forget his five threes in a row against UNC)

1. Tony Delk (The reason I began watching basketball. Shot the three like no one I have ever seen. Captain. Leader. Champion. NBA star. Point guard. 00)

Top 5 Funniest Athletes

5. Muhammed Ali
Funny quote- "I've seen George Foreman shadow boxing and the shadow won."

4. John Kruk
Funny quote about Kruk-"Like they say, it ain't over 'til the fat guy swings."-Darren Daulton

3. Gilbert Arenas.... because of this tweet.

2. Rickey Henderson
Funny Quote- "Well, Rickey’s not one of them, so that’s 49 percent right there."—on reports that 50 percent of ballplayers use steroids.

1. Shaquille O'Neal
Funny quote- "I'm tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money. I just want to play the game, drink Pepsi, wear Reebok."

Speaking of athletes, if you watched the Reds game, not only would you have seen a pathetic performance by the Reds, but also no respect for the game by Cliff Lee.  He grounded to 2nd base, took one step toward first, waved it off, and started walking to the dugout.  He makes Johnny Cueto and Andrew Jones look like hustlers.  I know you're just a pitcher but still.  Come on man, have some respect for the game; you are getting paid millions.  Is it too much to ask for you to run out a ground ball?

Winner of the Day: The creator of this shirt. JC Penny pulled it off of the shelves claiming it was sexist but whatever happened to free speech? And it's funny.  I guess not only are women not smart, they can't take a joke (kidding ladies). 
Loser of the day: William Neal.  Who is that you ask?  He's a Loveland man accused of repeatedly raping a child under the age of 13 dating back to last June. Here's the story.
Quote of the day: "Because there are no fours."—NBA long-range gunner Antoine Walker when asked why he shoots so many threes.

Fight of the day: Brooke Collins vs. a black bear.  This woman from Alaska punched a black bear in the face to save her dog.  I thought the dog was supposed to be the loyal one.  If I saw a bear, I'm taking off. The story is here.
