    As an Oregon alum I am now just happy if they wear the green helmet. I can ignore the rest as long as they're not wearing the yellow helmet, which looks like a goldfish bowl full of urine.

    I don't know what was wrong with these:

    Other than the tribute to Mr. Wildcat, those jerseys are awful.

    That's what I thought when I saw it, the white helmet is bad also.

    South Carolina's Cory Boyd said the same thing after game a couple of years ago.

    Kentucky has a hockey team? If so, I'm buying a jersey because Ashley is wearing one.

    Yea, it's club level (IIRC). Course in college hockey, club's a little higher than in most other sports or it used to be.

    She was on their schedule one year. I think the team sent her a jersey and asked her if she'd wear it for them. I could so be wrong.

    I knew we could blame soccer somehow!

    I'm a traditionalist I guess. Give me Penn State and Bama uniforms, and of course Michigan's. UK has trotted out some ugly stuff in the past.

    Hell, I wish Louisville would go back to wearing ProKeds like back in the day.

    If I remember right, her cousin roomed with someone on the team and asked her to pose for their schedule. She thought it would just be like one picture to hang in the locker room or something. Then, it blew up. She got pretty mad about it, if I remember correctly.

    From there, they got Kentucky babes (even some with pretty questionable ties) to do it every year.

    And this year's poster babe: Miss Kentucky 2008, Emily Cox (no pic yet).

    Yay hockey! But how did Kylie Bax get in there? Isn't she British?

    Not that I'm complaining.

    She's from New Zealand. Long way from Kentucky.
