Anyone else notice at the end of the Duke loss to FSU the ESPN commentator said "with this loss Kentucky now has the longest home winning streak in the country". Sorry pal, but before the Duke loss UK already had the longest home winning streak in the country. Another ESPN slight...another day of being the #1 program in the country.

ESPN fact checkers do not exist. All facts start with dUKe must be the record holder or it doesn't really matter.

Yes, and puke people are the authorities on everything. Yesterday, espn was doing an all day coverage of Joe Paterno, and guess who they interviewed about Joe Pa? Yep, Coach Rat himself.

I dont think I have ever seen a so called professional outfit be as wrong on facts as much as ESPN. That's because they employ clowns.

MOst of 'em don't do much research or they do selective research.
I still think Bilas is the best of the commentators and I still like Kellog. Len Elmore used to be descent, he and verne did a terrific job on the 1992 UK Duke gem, even with the loss maybe my favorite all time game simply from the level it was played at and the team aspect of UK's effort. But then again Padgett and crew overcoming T5 to nail K's ass is up there too.

My understanding is they have a number of former dUKe graduates as employees....that tells you everything you need to know....

DMR-- ex Dukies as employees may explain their Suckfest of all things Duke but there has always been a patent disrespect of Kentucky.

folks, there's no need to get your drawers in a bunch over this statement....the reason they said that UK now had the streak is because we are no longer sharing it w/ dook, which we were (sometimes) before they lost. since our streak was at 46 and there's was 45, they could catch/pass us at times if we're in the middle of a long road trip and they're in the middle of a long home stand. i'm fairly certain that's what the espn talking head was alluding to

They just did the same thing at halftime, Kentucky is up by 10, number 1 in the country, but rather than talking about Kentucky in a positive way, Fran Fraschilla and the other dickweed spent the whole time talking about how great Vandy, Miss St. and Florida is and how they could all could beat us.
