I just hung up from talking with FCC. He is working through some health and family problems. His phone has been cleaned, and he lost all of our numbers. He is making progress and asked that you guys text him so he can recover your number. He has been going through it.
Beer is good.Afternoon, the D. Just chilling out here in Chucktown. Hot here. Been working on the car most of the day. Drinking a Bud Light now. The only time I drink beer is during the warm months (which is most of the time here!)
One is a dogwood

Speaking of shepherds, how bout that Jeff Sheppard? I firmly believe, and you will not change my mind, that he was more instrumental in our 98 championship than that coach was. If we had played Tubby's way, like we did in the Maui Classic, we wouldn't have made it past the sweet sixteen. Jeff rallied the troops and was the coach on the floor.
Thanks Jeff, 'preciate it.
storms Friday night made Saturday very interestingGood evening Bev. Did the rain hit there at the off road playground and make things interesting?
The easiest explanation for me would be that it wasn't as severe as we were led to believe it was. That story isn't as good as the Derek Anderson story I heard though.Truth.
I often think about what the outcome of the SEC & NCAA tourneys would have been for the Cats in '98 had Jeff not miraculously recovered (via hyper chamber or whatever he used to heal) from that ankle injury. Hint: it wouldn't have been pretty.
Still don't know how he recovered so fast and played that well so quick after that injury.
Woot woot!2004 the year I graduated high school.
What did you fix? Back in the day, late 60s early 70s, I was the bike fix it guy for all my friends. My father had the garage and all the tools. At ten years old I could take a bike totally apart and put it back together again. Bikes were simple then though. I bet your bike has those fancy gears and hand brakes and what not.Productive day. Got my bicycle fixed. May ride it tomorrow.
Y'all have a great evening.
The easiest explanation for me would be that it wasn't as severe as we were led to believe it was. That story isn't as good as the Derek Anderson story I heard though.
I was at a Derby party in 98 because I was dating a chick who took me to a party in Cherokee Park that was attended by a player from the 97 team. There were many ul fans there but just a few of us UK guys. I ended up in the kitchen talking with this player and manning the beer keg. He told me, and asked me not to tell, that DA didn't think he was going to come back from surgery in time to play anymore that year and had signed with an agent.
We all know the story of Rick telling everyone that if the doctors cleared DA to play that he would play. The doctors cleared him but DA didn't play. Story I was told was that Derek came clean with Rick and told him what he had done and that Rick was devastated. Caught him off guard. Rick then came up with the idea that DA shouldn't play and take a chance on injury.
I won't tell the name of the player and this is just the drunk ramblings of a person that may or may not have heard what he thought he heard from a drunken ex-UK player. Take it with a grain of salt. Rick was telling the truth about Dieng though when he didn't play him last year because he was concerned that he would reinjure his ankle. The pictures of him with the whores played no part in that decision.![]()
I mean this in the nicest way, but you don't have to @ anyone in this thread. We all read every post. Doesn't bother me any at all. In fact, I kind of like the blue reminder. Just saving you some trouble if you like.@ymmot31 you have frightened me!!!
I've heard that same story about DA and the '97 NCAA tourney too. Although i didn't hear it from a player. Seems more plausible now that i know one of the players told the same story…drunk or not.

We were all your age before and I will say that I think you are doing fine. Keep it up. Actually, I would say from what I've seen that you have your shit together better than some, or one, of us had at your age. Thanks for expanding our demographics while being an interesting character.
21 speed. Replaced the seat and rear tire/tube. Tuned it up a little. Tire was a real pain in the ass this time. Need to work on 3 other bikes I own. Dahon folder needs a pedal. Brompton folder needs a tensioner wheel replaced. Another 4th bike needs TLC.What did you fix? Back in the day, late 60s early 70s, I was the bike fix it guy for all my friends.
