The comment by mtnvol is absolutely ridiculous. I'm embarassed to be a Tennessee fan and have some idiot laughing at a players injury. mtnvol, why don't you just move to Florida.

BFD.. hating the Cats since 1975 and Joe B's days.. Any Vol who is a Vol hates the Cats no matter the circumstances. From a fans standpoint you hate the Cats no matter who the current players are..You hate em for being Cats not as a person.
Vol fans hate Cats, hate Bama, and hate Gators.. Again hate from a team perspective and not a personal perspective.

John, you tool! Please use my words above to prove that I'm delighted a player is hurt. Show us all, by quoting me, that I'm "laughing at a players injury."
I'm laughing that ky is looking forward to football, bozo. Woodson graduated, remember? The cats stink at football, year in and year out, remember? Therefore, for ky fans to look past basketball (the game they believe they invented) to football makes me laugh. Having Vol fans that are so oblivious makes me "embarassed to be a Tennessee fan and hav(ing) some idiot..." not be able to read!
I took my son to Lexington this fall and was treated about as badly as I've been treated in Gainesville. He'll never go back. NCVol17, my distaste for ky goes back to Joe B as well. Old grudges are hard to live down!

mtnvol:
The news article was about Patterson's injury. Your quote is "Things ARE bleak up there! hahahahaha"
Sounds like you're laughing.

Start at the beginning of my quote..."ky fans looking forward to football?" Taking bits and pieces out of context is cheap and should only be used by politicians. ;-)
Yes, I'm laughing that KY FANS ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO FOOTBALL! Reread the headline...."The loss on Friday of Patrick Patterson has Kentucky fans despondent. THEY'LL EVEN WATCH SPRING KENTUCKY FOOTBALL" (emphasis mine).
To set the record straight once and for all...read this slowly so it will sink in...I'm not the least bit happy that any athlete is injured. However, it is humorous to me that ky fans might give up on their beloved bb team for their beleaguered fb team.

Sorry, I have taken you out of context. Glad you set me straight.
