Please review the philosophical point entertained before the quote above.

As for getting blown out, it happens sometimes-- note the '88 or '89
thrashing that LSU dealt out _at Rupp_. (No doubt those pr1cks Brown and
Caesar taking advantage of UK's weakened condition at the time.)

And I've come away from games at Vandy before that UK _won_ feeling like a
whipped dog: 3-storms take it right out of ya.

At least they seem to have gotten rid of some of the lines on that damned
court-- for a long while, it looked like a Chinese checkers board.
