One of the great things about sports is that you can sit and argue about questions that can never actually be resolved. Like, what is the place of recent Cats like Darius Miller, John Wall or Eric Bledsoe in the overall UK story? More difficult to answer are questions about which teams from different eras were “better”? (Baseball fans are especially fond of this!) It’s especially difficult when you are talking about teams from far different eras. The 1927 Yankees were perhaps the most dominant major league baseball team in the history of the sport, but today’s players are so much more athletic that it may be the Washington Nationals of this week could beat them four out of seven. Who knows? It’s perhaps easier when the teams are closer in time. Which leads to this question, pondered by [URL=”http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1179814-are-the-2012-kentucky-wildcats-better-than-the-1996-untouchables”]Paul Ables on Bleacher Report:[/URL]
Which Kentucky championship team was better…the classic 1996 Pitino model, or the shiny new 2012 Calipari? You decide.
