I enjoy watching and rooting on UK basketball but , as I've said before, it's not very important. I can think of a thousand things that are far more important. I watch a young  guy like Jack Pilgrim, whose joys and sorrows in life seem to be so tied to KY basketball and I think, Jack, oh boy, one day I hope you realize that it's just a damn game. Let it go, son. When Corbin lost to Boyle, I was disappointed(because we were the better team... lol) but I slept like a baby that night. Same when UK lost to, who was it, St. Peters? I slept fine.  When I was around Jack's age, I cried when the Bengals lost the Superbowl game.  Sports is fun. It's a nice diversion from all of life's worries but it's not really that important when you think about it.

That's a lot of words just to try to tell us we shouldn't mind losing. If UK basketball isn't important, why do they pay someone $10 million + $millions in perks to coach it? The answer that is obvious to all but a very few is to win.

(And please, you ranted and raved on here for weeks after Corbin lost, not to mention posting 24/7 leading up to that loss.)
