Worldwide Cal?

Correctamundo. It says "Kentucky basketball going Worldwide" underneath KFC.

Every day I get asked:
"Big Booyah, are you serious when you say the University of Kentucky is slowly moving toward world domination?"

My one-word answer is simple:
"Oh hell yes we are!"

Coach Cal was on Sports Night with Richard Gabriel last night adding gasoline to this fire. I'm still not sure how in the world the conversation moved to this point, but Coach Cal said he had intentions to be the first U.S. coach to bring in talent from China.

Calipari announced on Monday night, during his one-hour visit on Sports Nightly, that he wants to be the first U.S. coach to land a talented Chinese recruit. Calipari said he has visited China before and will return to conduct clinics. "I want to be the first guy to coach a really good Chinese player in college. I'm going back over there to tie up some loose ends, " he told the Sports Nightly radio audience.

The only thing that would make my fandom any more ridiculous at this point is if we had a Yao Jr. dominating at UK. Can you imagine what that would do monetarily for the University, much less the entire state? Yao annually has one of the most sold jerseys in the NBA. If we could turn a whole country, equaling to 1 out of every 5 people on the planet, into Bluebloods, our goal of world domination will be just around the corner. 1,004,000,000 people in blue would be a wonderful sight.
