Nobody believed in the New York Football Giants. Eli Manning couldn’t lead these guys to a Super Bowl. Tom Coughlin is a choke artist in the playoffs. The offense isn’t strong enough to win against Tampa Bay’s defense. Okay, so they beat Tampa Bay, but Dallas is next. The Cowboys are 13-3 and have already [...]

2008: THE YEAR OF THE UNDERDOG
Posted: 21st September 2008 by seth stogsdill in Boston Celtics, UK basketball, UK football3
I knew Rajon Rondo was the starting point guard for the NBA champion Boston Celtics. Everyone does. But did you know he has his own basketball camp? It’s true… and Courier-Journal columnist Rick Bozich was there to talk to Rondo about it. Rondo hopped on a 6 a.m. flight, almost straight from Thursday’s parade in [...]
Rajon Rondo: NBA Champion.
Posted: 18th June 2008 by Kenny Colston in Boston Celtics, Joe Crawford, Kentucky Basketball, NBA Draft, rajon rondo, UK basketballWhat a blowout. Boston smacks around Kobe and the Laker Girls last night for a 39-point win. It’s Boston’s 17th NBA championship. It’s Rajon Rondo’s first. Oh, and one quick thing. This guy from CBS thinks Rondo sucks, I think the guy sucks. Rondo had a bad ankle, dummy. But Rondo had a pretty good [...]
Rajon Rondo Has a Bad Ankle? Bad News.
Posted: 12th June 2008 by Kenny Colston in Boston Celtics, NBA, rajon rondoLike most of you Wildcat (and Celtic!) fans, I was hoping that when Rajon Rondo hobbled off the floor in Game 3, that he was a-okay. I was hoping that Rondo may sit out the rest of the game, but he would be fine for the series. Nope. Check either major sports site, ESPN or [...]
Rajon Rondo has a Website, Y'all!
Posted: 9th June 2008 by Kenny Colston in Boston Celtics, rajon rondoSorry, I was channeling my inter Florence, Ky. You know, the place with the big Florence Y’all on a water tank? Yeah… impressive. Anyway, Rajon Rondo, blogger champ over at Yardbarker, has finally launched his website. You can find it right here… and it seems to have some cool stuff on it. Rondo also said [...]
Rajon Rondo Made You Look
Posted: 9th June 2008 by Kenny Colston in Boston Celtics, NBA, rajon rondoI’m just going to go out on a limb and say the majority of people who are going to read this have never heard of hip hop artist Nas, or his (old) hit song “Made You Look”. But I brought it back into my Ipod rotation recently, after watching Rajon Rondo in the the NBA [...]
Jeff Van Gundy Doesn't Like Rajon Rondo

If you would like to contribute to UK Wildcat Country, please e-mail me. All applicants are welcome.

Rajon Rondo Continues to Convert Doubters.
Posted: 3rd June 2008 by Kenny Colston in Boston Celtics, NBA, rajon rondoOne of the things I admire most is when a sports writer or columnist admits that they made a mistake. It’s a difficult business. We are all human and mistakes happen. People forgive easier when you admit a flub rather than stand behind it for prideful reasons. And today, give Louisville Courier-Journal columnist Rich Bozich [...]
Rondo, Celtics Win the Battle. War Up for Grabs.
Posted: 25th May 2008 by Kenny Colston in Boston Celtics, NBA, rajon rondo, tayshaun princeThe Celtics finally won a road game. Rajon Rondo was part of a very balanced Boston attack, playing a team high 40 minutes. Rondo’s stat line: 12 points on 5-of-10 shooting, 3 rebounds and 4 assists. The downer is Rondo also had five turnovers, ouch. Tayshaun Prince struggled at home last night, going for 4 [...]
Rajon Rondo: The East Coast Steve Nash?
Posted: 15th May 2008 by Kenny Colston in Boston Celtics, NBA, rajon rondoMaybe the comparsion in the title is a stretch. But I’m willing to say no. Did you see Rondo last night? 20 points (on 9-for-15 shooting) and 13 assists while watching Boston resident pyscho Kevin Garnett go off? I tend to agree with Matt McHale over at Basketbawful, who also moonlights as the NBA Closer [...]
