@drgnslayr got me thinking about Kelly Oubre's and Cliff Alexander's performances vis a vis UK's hyped frosh.
(THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT, SLAYR!!!!)
Oubre and Cliff have taken major heat for slow starts and for supposedly struggling.
UK's hyped frosh, on the other hand of public relations, get nothing but testicular licks and sphincter kisses by the submissive national media. Let me upper case that: TESTICULAR LICKS AND SPHINCTER KISSES!
This fecal-oral fawning over UK by national media has gotten to the point, where I suspect that the spouses and significant others of major broadcasters will not suck face with their mates without insisting they use some kind of CDC-approved, Ebola Hot Zone-grade, anticeptic mouthwash to prevent sudden kissing death syndrome from all the private places these broadcasters have been sucking up to.
PUHLEEEEASE, as the pre-dead Joan Rivers used to say, CAN WE TALK?!!!!!
I eyeballed the numbers for mpg, ppg, and rpg today.
The numbers are so close--plus or minus 2 mpg, 2 ppg, 2 rpg--that if you index for the different tempos, KU's frosh and UK's frosh would probably be producing about equally.
OOOH, MAKE ME WANNA HOLLER, Marvin.
I know, I didn't go all KENPOM. I just eyeballed it. I didn't take the fifth derivative and grind it 10 decimal places. I was too infuriated.
And get this: here in standing upright reality (as opposed to down on all fours national sports media reality), Oubre and Cliff really have been playing not so hot...THINK ABOUT WHAT THAT IMPLIES ABOUT THE UK FROSH FOR A SECOND.
Oubre and Cliff haven't been playing so hot AND THEY'RE TEMPO-ADJUSTED NUMBERS WOULD PROBABLY BE JUST ABOUT THE SAME AS UK'S FROSH!!!!
And the KU and UK season RPIs are comparable.
And UK plays in that weeny basketball conference called the SEC!!!!!!
Quick, I don't even have to kiss the suck-ups and I want the mouth wash.
GIVE.....ME....THE....MOUTHWASH!!!
Get up off your hands and knees, national media.
Brush your flipping teeth.
Take off the latex undies, the nipple clips and the blindfolds.
You look ridiculous in this season long submission session with Master Cal in his size 30 Marlon Brando Wild One motorcycle outfit from B&D Costumes'R Us and his Gang of Not-So-Dominant OADs.
Olivia!
Help me here!
The bend overs in the national media need some proper power transference.
Throw on the Cat Woman Suit.
Oil the riding crop.
Teach these national broadcasters a lesson about objectivity they'll never forget.
Next.
