Be honest. Did you find humor in the Kentucky players crying?

I know it's wrong to mock these kids who really showed genuine emotion after a heartbreaking loss, but I did find the whole sequence awkward and funny, especially as De'Aaron Fox was talking.

No. I love passion in sports. Elation, agony, joy, tears, etc. All part of the spectrum that makes sports the amazing, raw theater it is.

I felt bad for Fox. He seems like a likeake guy.

For the most part, no. It was nice to see that emotion versus Lonzo announcing his pro thing once he got off the court -- you can't wait until the next day for that, dude? That said, I did think, if you want to win so badly and care so much about UK, how about coming back for another year?

not funny, but also not sad if that makes sense. I too enjoy the raw emotions of sports, especially with big stakes on the line.

Because it's not worth a million dollars to stay

I didn't think it was funny, but I don't feel bad for those guys like I do for Seniors that do the same thing(especially Seniors who may never play basketball again). Fox has his NBA dreams and millions to look forward to, and if he wanted to prolong that and give the NCAA tournament another shot he could.

I can see it being funny, but I didn't laugh at that particular one. I really enjoyed watching Fox. It's admirable that he obviously cared and wasn't just going through the motions waiting for his next step.

AT the same time, I'd be lying if I didn't do a double take. My wife who knows nothing about sports was like, "are they serious?"

I'd say the only people who found that funny were people who never played sports, or were atleast never emotionally involved in them when they were younger.
It showed that they cared, which is good because everyone accuses them of not caring.

Some of those kids have an opportunity to make the kind of money that could change their family wealth from a generational aspect. And in an incredibly small physical window.
Would love them to come back but that would be pretty selfish as fan to shite on them for not doing so considering the opportunity in front of them.
Also from all accounts this team really enjoyed playing together and got along really well. I'm not surprised that was an emotional moment for them losing in that fashion.

Nope, frickstick.
Posted on 3/29/17 at 12:06 am to Tarik One
Why hell ya I did, that shite was funny. Those dudes acting like grandma done died.

No they showed they cared about winning and not like others who are one and done who only care about getting their one year of college out the way for the NBA.

Hell no i don't have a problem with it.
Even in little league, the few times we lost I had hot tears of anger feeling like I could of done something more to help us win going 3-4. Felt like I let my teammates down on the one miss. Competitive juices flow deep.

Didn't really find the players crying humorous.
