Dumbest Fans in America: #2 The Kentucky Wildcats

UK Basketball fans are rabid and can be as obnoxious as any Alabama Football fan.

Last year he made $12,462 working part-time at Walgreen's before taxes and spent $4,828 on SEC tourney and NCAA basketball tickets.

While I don’t necessarily believe that Kentuckians are stupid he does have a point, or two. Remember that the word ‘Fan’ is short for ‘Fanatic’ which means rabid and over the top enthusiasm so let’s take pride in making their list.

Next year……………….#1

"Kentucky basketball fans are the dumbest basketball fans in the country and there isn't a close second.  

Intelligent Kentucky basketball fans -- and there are at least a handful -- solemnly acknowledge this fact.  

While every other Southern school is obsessed with football, Kentucky, forever unable to compete in football, adopted basketball as its chosen sport. That doesn't stop Kentucky basketball fans from choosing other football teams to root for either. Kentucky basketball fans will root for Ohio State, Tennessee, even, of late, and this fan has to be the worst on earth, Alabama for football. 

There is no worse human being on earth than a Kentucky basketball fan and an Alabama football fan. 

Have you no shame, Wildcat fans?"

Teddy Bridgewater Game Management INC and UL Crushes Rutgers

It took a fake field goal trick play to score Rutgers only touchdown and any other program not trying to make a case for a BCS title would be happy with the Offense. 25  NFL scouts, to include the GM of the Jacksonville Jaguars, watched as Teddy Bridgewater tossed up decent fantasy football numbers. More impressive was the balanced UL offense 32 runs and 31passes and clock eating drives managed by Teddy. Despite an interception, not his fault, and a fumble caused by a blindside sack Teddy Bridgewater went 21 for 31 with two touchdowns. What the scouts had to have been impressed by was the fact that after a hit that would have rattled the best QBs in the NFL Bridgewater jumped up, checked for the next play, got in the huddle, said something to his blindside tackle then moved on to win the game. That displayed Grit, Leadership and Maturity that few people in his age group will ever develop. Teddy Bridgewater is one of the best traditional pocket QBs in the last few years. Lets hope his talent is not wasted on a crap hole team like the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The analysts and sports writers that talk down Louisville despite the numbers and BCS rules are the same folks that ruined Tim Tebow's shot at a legitimate NFL career. Don't pay attention to the men behind the curtain. Remember these folks are not actively participating in Collegiate or Professional Football even as a Water Boy. They are getting paid to write, generate links and get viewers angry.

NOTE: The Jacksonville Jaguars have collapsed and are in the midst of a cultural crisis. Why is NFL Commissioner Roger Goddell allowing the GM to visit college programs, host major parties in Louisville while putting an obviously inferior product on the field? Does not the NFL have a duty to the fans to place a legitimate and competitive team on the field each and every Sunday? I am tired of watching otherwise competitive teams openly throw games in order to draft the Heisman Trophy winner. I hope the NY Giants go winless so they can draft Teddy instead……….

Mark Coomes: Three reasons why critics are wrong about U of L 'win' over Rutgers | Insider Louisville:

"When the final horn sounded, I was as frustrated and disappointed as the next guy. But after further review, what happened last night was that, for the first time this season, the Cardinals proved themselves to be a legitimate top 10 team.

The polls might say otherwise on Sunday. The cognoscenti said otherwise before the game even ended."

Two more Playoff Teams in 2015?

Roger Goodell: Playoff expansion a possibility for 2015 - NFL.com:

"'If expanding the postseason would allow other teams to get into the dance, and they have the potential of going on and winning the Super Bowl,' Goodell explained, 'that's a good thing for fans, that a good thing competitively.'

If the new rule is adopted, it won't be put into place until the 2015 season because there are scheduling issues next season. Rather than two games apiece on wild-card weekend, each conference would expand to three games.

One possibility for squeezing in extra playoff teams is to reduce the preseason from four weeks to three, although the two issues are not necessarily related. Goodell reiterated that preseason games are not up to NFL standards.

Other issues Goodell addressed Tuesday:

» The NFL has no plans to place a franchise in London. 'Our objective is to grow internationally,' Goodell said. 'We're responding to that interest in the game because the fans want to see it. ... There's a real interest in our game internationally.'

» The league has found no evidence that Thursday night games produce more injuries than any other game. Ratings have more than doubled since NFL Network began broadcasting on Thursday nights. 'It's our job to build 'Thursday Night Football,' ' Goodell added, 'and make it, this is where you want to be on Thursday night, watching NFL football.'

» The NFL actively is looking for a solution that will return a franchise to Los Angeles, but it won't happen without a new stadium. Goodell stressed that it would have to be a site that works and allows for sustained success.

» Growing up in Washington, Goodell does not consider the Redskins name to be derogatory. He did emphasize, however, that the NFL has to keep an open mind because other people have a different perspective. 'We need to listen and carefully listen,' Goodell said, 'and make sure that we're doing what's right.'

On NFL Network NFL Replay will re-air a special 3.5-hour version of the Denver Broncos' 51-48 win over the Dallas Cowboys from Week 5 on Wednesday, Oct. 9 at 9 p.m. ET.

» NFL Network schedule » The NFL announced Tuesday that a third regular-season game will be added to the London schedule for the 2014 season. The Jacksonville Jaguars, Atlanta Falcons and Oakland Raiders each will play one home game at Wembley Stadium next year.

» Goodell confirmed the three finalist cities to host Super Bowl LII in 2018. The three bid cities for the game are Indianapolis, Minneapolis and New Orleans.

» The league also passed a rule Tuesday during that will compel one team per year to participate in the HBO/NFL Films"
