Sarcasm At Broadband Speed!

By way of Wildcats Thunder, the geniuses from Fire Tubby bring us Fire Billy just in time to celebrate the new Kentucky head basketball coach. While I didn't see this coming, it makes sense that it did, and the Fake Gimel Martinez explains why.

From Firebilly.com

“Seriously, we do not want to fire University of Kentucky men’s basketball head coach Billy Gillispie.

So why is the name of the site firebilly.com, you ask? To keep it away from some crazy UK fans, we answer.

You see, approximately 95% of UK’s fanbase are just awesome. They cheer hard for great effort on and off the court, they are proud of the history of the program and support it with undying love. But that other 5% are either too passionate or are just plain nuts. They’re the folks who call in on local radio sports shows and decry the coaching staff and players, even after a win. They’re the ones who jump online and make terrible videos calling for a head coach’s dismissal.

And when Coach Billy Clyde has a tough loss — those tough losses come to everybody — they’ll be calling in talk shows and writing hateful Internet posts. And one of them might want to do something stupid like buy firebilly.com and make an actual hate site against the coach.

So, we buy firebilly.com and make it a pro-UK and pro-Gillispie site. Take that, Crazy 5%!”

So ch-ch-ch-chill! It's one of those opposite blogs, fire means not fire, and if it means to really fire, like strike a match and fire, then that means to water, and to water means to fire in which case ... aww heck, just go to the dang site, THEY LOVE GIDDYUP GILLISPIE!!!

There, are we clear yet?
