Posted: 30th June 2008 by Kenny Colston in NBA, NBA Draft, Ramel Bradley[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nk0aQg0p6Bw&hl=en] That is Shan Foster, former Vanderbilt guard, singing the most basic song ever.

2008-09 ROSTER BREAKDOWN: PATRICK PATTERSON
Posted: 29th June 2008 by Kenny Colston in UncategorizedPatrick Patterson is the man. I can’t make it any clearer than that. I have a very biased opinion when it comes to comparing Kentucky’s players to players on other teams, but I think it would be difficult for an objective person to make a list of the top five power forwards in the college [...]

Posted: 27th June 2008 by Kenny Colston in Kentucky Football, SEC football, UK footballThis was just too good to not pass along to you guys. You see, I’ve recently discovered the magic of a feed reader (I use Google) and it’s magnificent. And one of the blogs I added was Third Saturday in Blogtober… a mix of Tennessee and Alabama, I think. Anyway, they do weekly Limericks and [...]

Posted: 26th June 2008 by Kenny Colston in Kentucky Football, Louisville, Steve Kragthrope, UK footballI have no idea what those words mean, but it’s probably degrading. I wish I could take credit for this idea. I really do.
