The Greatest of all Time
The geniuses over at CBS Sports haved cooked up a list of the top 16 college basketball teams of all time. Parrish, Goodman, Borzello, and Norlander all submitted ballots. Two of the four had UK’s 96′ team at #2. The other 2 put that team down at #5 and #6 behind teams like the ’56 San Francisco team.
Now I’m not in my 60’s so I don’t have the greatest frame of reference for the ‘frisco team. I do know Bill Russell was on the team and that they went undefeated and won a title, but they weren’t as dominating as the ‘Untouchables’ in ’96 who’s only losses came from two of the other teams that made the Final Four. That Frisco team did not put 9 players in the NBA like the 96′ Cats, either.
I’ve become somewhat desensitized to the lunacy these guys spew over there but this is enough for me to boycott permanantly (did I not have a responsibility to deliver ‘the news’ to the BBN) Here are the ballots from the guys at CBS and with that, I’ll need a moment to compose myself, excuse me…
