This Saturday, the Rage play the Kentucky Xtreme (from Louisville). There is a little part of me that totally wants to trash talk this team. Personally, I spend most of my time in Lexington, and it is usually very hard for me to say something good about a team from Louisville.
There is a little mischievous voice deep inside of me that wants to talk some serious smack. I want to say that the only good thing that has ever come out of Louisville is a guy named Bill Ashburn.
But I would not be telling the truth. I love Louisville. The place rocks. I have spent many days there watching AAA baseball games, eating at Lynn's and sipping Heine Bros. coffee. Its a cool town.
And, in general, I like their sports teams too, as long as they aren't playing another team from Kentucky.
The Xtreme have had some cool beginnings- here is a great article about how the team came to be:

This is definitely a team I would cheer for any other day, but not this Saturday.
