Do you see any of these boards called SeattleKat Maniacs or Forluvoftubby Maniacs or kj Maniacs? I don't. They all deal with UK sports and as such the coachs and players are subjects of discussion.
If you can find anything where I have discussed anything about Tubby or Saul concerning anything but their playing or coaching abilities I will kiss your a** cause there have been no slurs about either's character so get your story straight.

Just a note for all to read: On any of the 'other' forums, an edit or deletion would've already happened but this is the 'lightly' moderated forum....as specified on the main page. As long as we don't get really graphic with our descriptions, begin cursing or violate any Proboard rules, things will stand as they're posted. We don't really like to see these things but that's one of the main reasons for 'The Hot Tub' Things get 'hot' from time to time and this is the place to let off some steam. I guess we could call this the 'Steam Room' but I'm afraid many wouldn't get the connection. Debate or argue til your hearts content but let's all at least try to stay civil. Thanks.

I deleted my post!!! Don't want to see the Maniacs go the way of EWP!! That won't ever happen and I was/am VERY fond of EWP and I thank God I was a small part of that community. I met some very good people and think I'm able to call at least some of them....friends. I cut my internet teeth there and I couldn't be more happy with the results.....even though my incisors got quite sharp esp towards the end. ;D

Just as I told Chris I am here both at good times and bad times. Been away some the last month or so because my mother has been very ill so don't think I'm dodging. As far as the 9 losses the last 2 years, the 39 in the 4 years before kind of allows me to cope with them a little easier. 2 number 1 seeds, maybe we should have made the FF one of the years. Tubby does a masterful job like he did in 98 again, I will sing his praises, I haven't seen anything to make me think that level will be achieved with him at the helm again. 4LT, I wouldn't hold my breath on another national championship, you may come up gasping. BTW you ever read the guidelines about namecalling and such? Maybe you need it explained if you haven't. KJ, for the most part I can agree with you. However, I guess I've seen too many coaches turn things around and Tubby is still learning. The only reason I have hope is this, I've yet to see what Tubby can do with a talented team that he recruited. Since taking over in 98 our recruiting classes have consistently sucked, but it's obvious that Tubby is aware of that. Yes, Tubby won in 98 and since then I've seen few signs of us ever returning (final four) and in my mind in 98 that was Pitino's team and his talent. Tubby can coach if the talent is there, atleast this is what I want to believe. I'm going to be patient over the next three years and see what happens. IF in three years we fail to make a final four appearence then I doubt I'll be the only anti-Tubby fan on this board. The funny thing is even if he doesn't win another championship over his entire tenure you'll still have Tubby supporters to argue with, I sure hope you Die Hard Tubby fans can make a believer out of me because I'm trying. I feel it does no good not to believe in UK just because of a coach, atleast next season looks exciting. I feel like a cubs fan, kinda. There's always next year? I trully want to like the guy (Tubby) because I feel as though he's atleast genuine, but at UK genuine doesn't win championships. What scares me most is this, since 98 UK really hasn't come close to returning to the final four. Not only do we lose in March but we lose early. I want to believe, I trully do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not come close to the final four? In 1999 and 2003 I thought we reached the Elite 8. That is one step from the final four isn't it. This isn't an excuse, but with a 100% healthy Bogans I think we have been in that 2003 final four.
