Bull shit why 1984? In 1984 Duke had won crap.
Duke the best the past 40 years my ass. Why pick 40? Why pick 20?
Why did you pick 1984? Pick 1991. Before that Duke had won nuttin'.
Why not pick UVA and you would only have to go back to the current champion. GEEZE.
Pick the time Borden and get of the anti-Kentucky bandwagon. Pick IU. Pick UNC. Pick IU. Pick UCLA. Pick Ohio St. Pick who ever you choose. GEEZE. GEEZE. GEEZE.
I picked 1984 b/c that is what MANY, if not ALL historians consider the modern era of college basketball. Its not MY personal time frame.
You are to emotionally involved with UK basketball to have any type of rational discussion.
You don't think Duke has been the best program the past 35 or 40 years? Ok fine. But instead of giving me some emotionally charged, temper-tantrum answer---How about use your intelligence, and explain why they are not?
Again, 1984 isn't a time frame I chose. Just going by what the historians of the game feel is the start of the modern era. You know, those same historians who feel UK is the best CBB of all-time.
Since that time(1984), Duke has won 5 National titles....Been to 12 FF's, and 16 Elite 8's. I am curious Bert, what program has done better?
Here's the issue with not only you, but other UK fans: You cannot be happy with being revered as the CBB's best of all-time. You have to have it all: Best the past 10 years...best the past 20.....Best the last 6 months, etc, etc...You take as an insult to what Kentucky has accomplished....Why? Well, easy---You're a fan of a program that cannot handle hearing that someone else might be a little better of late. TBH, it hurts your feelings.
I love ya Bert. You are a good person...A good friend. But your love for UK hoops blinds you to any type of discussion in this manor.
