Kevin Stallings is a big, fat pussy (part 2 of 1,000,000)

I'm pretty sure that I could write a million installments of Kevin Stallings being a big, blubbering vagina, but that could get tedious. Instead, I'll probably only write a few more this year. As nervous as I am for this game, I am probably more bothered by his by the prospect of watching hisconstant bitching and whining from the endlines result in a Vandy win. He makes me really mad. I want to win to shore up our current resume; I want to win more, though, because I like to hear him cry like a dumb bitch after the game. If they win, they win. If they win on a bullshit foul call that is a direct byproduct of his antics, I will drive to Nashville, eat some Church's Chicken, and then go kick him in the nuts.









I mean, really? And they're both named Kevin!


I'm going to be trying to format this until midnight, because I suck at pictures. Actually, blogger sucks at pictures. This isn't my fault.

Apparently, Louisville plays tonight. I had no idea, but I will not be live-blogging their showdown with mighty Depaul. Even if UK wasn't on I wouldn't watch that bloodbath.

Pitino should wear the white suit again, just to confuse people. Everybody will be like, 'I thought he wore that for the white-out? Was he just wearing it?' Honestly, the guy will do anything to be the big story. Also, was he constantly naked in the locker room? First, the players didn't see him in his suit before the game. Then, he changed at halftime? Apparently the UL locker room doubles as some sort of bathhouse.

If you're anything like me, you saw the Cards latest victim receive a gift-wrapped package from the officials last night. Villanova and G'town were tied with seconds remaining, and G'town got a rebound and was bringing the ball up the floor when, while 70 feet from the basket, Villanova was called for a pushing foul. I always thought, since the Jalen Rose shiver of '93, that fouls were never called in the backcourt with seconds waning.

I understand that "letting the players decide" could cause some sort of riot in the closing seconds, but calling a minor push before a heave is absurd. It's similar to calling pass interference on a Hail Mary; unless someone is intentionally bludgeoned, don't call it. Remember when IU beat Duke in Rupp to go to the Elite 8? I realize this is a bit obscure, but when Williams missed his free throw, Boozer had a chance to win it under the basket, and his arm was almost ripped off. Obviously I'm not complaining about the outcome, but officials generally allow the game to be decided by last second shots, not free throws.

Calling these weak fouls is just as arbitrary as calling intentional fouls when teams are, well, intentionally fouling. I understand that this is not a trend and these fouls will probably not be called in the future, but Villanova got hosed.

Live-blog for UK-Vandy. I may get pee and vomit all over the keyboard, but that's just from nervousness, not rabies or anything.
