D-League

Florida hanging tough so far against Michigan. SEC vs Big Ten. Michigan is a 2 seed. I expect the Wolverines to pull ahead but maybe this is the SEC's day., Never know.
I'm pulling for the Gators in this one. My cousin Mary graduated with a BSN from FL in 1971. She worked 40 years for Florida Hospital as an OR nurse.

I have a whole slew of cousins who are Gator grads and fans. They take it easy on me most of the time so since it is the NCAA I will pull for them to beat Michigan. I have no ties to Michigan at all.
 
I'm worried the cats don't seem to be playing their best. I'm thrilled with the win today and Wofford no doubt is a good team on a roll, butt the cats would have not have won against a more talented team today.

I hope when PJ returns and they know they will face better teams inspires them.!

Sorry to be a downer just had to say it out loud.
Sometimes teams rally. If PJ doesn't make it back then others step-up. The talent and drive is there. Even without PJ this team can win.
 
Good morning D-League. And after a Wildcat victory it is a good day.

The defense of Wofford's three point shooters was excellent and won this game for us. Get well PJ

Another beautiful day in store for us A nice day to go to church, worship and be thankful. We have much to be thankful for.

Trust all who are ailing feel better and our prayers are with you.
 
Good morning D.

The Cats' game is on again on CBSSports- their secondary cable channel.

I always see so much more watching after the pressure is off. The defense I thought was good was actually great, especially on Magee. As I posted early yesterday in Rupp Rafters it was very similar to the SECOND Wichita State game in 2017.

Obviously I hope PJ is back and hasn't missed a step - no pun intended. But this team isn't hopeless without him. Beat a good team yesterday.

A great defense can go along way in a tournament. Since the start of the season our defense improvement has been remarkable. Tyler Herro could have gone scoreless yesterday and still had a good game based on his defense. I look for the offense to start clicking, starting in the Sweet 16
 
I really enjoyed the games yesterday. The only real shocker was the ease that Auburn put away Kansas.

Interesting that Cal has now tied Rupp for tourney wins. (30 if I remember correctly.)
Rupp coached in an era where only one team per conference made the NCAA tournament. Also there were far fewer games in the tournament.

Congrats to Cal and I hope he wins 30 more starting with the next one. I enjoyed yesterday also Bert. I am glad we played early because once we won all I had to do was relax and enjoy the rest of the games.
 
An Irish daughter had not been home for over 5 years. Upon her return, her father cursed her heavily.

“Where have ye been all this time, child?
Why did ye not write to us, not even a line?
Why didn't ye call?
Can ye not understand what ye put yer old Mother through?”

The girl, crying, replied, “Dad, I became a prostitute.”

“Ye what!? Get out a here, ye shameless harlot! Sinner! You're a disgrace to this Catholic family.”

“OK, Dad, as ye wish. I only came back to give mum this luxurious fur coat, title deed to a ten bedroom mansion, plus a 5 million savings certificate.

For me little brother, this gold Rolex.

“And for ye, Daddy, the sparkling new Mercedes limited edition convertible that's parked outside plus a membership to the country club .. (takes a breath) .. and an invitation for ye all to spend New Year's Eve on board my new yacht in the Riviera.”

“What was it ye said ye had become?” says Dad.

Girl, crying again, “A prostitute, Daddy!.”

“Oh! My Goodness! Ye scared me half to death, girl! I thought ye said a Protestant! Come here and give yer old Dad a hug!!!”
 
Morning D
Coffee
Ditto

One more full day of basketball left. Only coffee and water for me today....yeesh.
Started Thursday night...finally quit last night. Slow and steady pace wins the race.
Got in 9 holes of golf, squeezed in some live music, hung out with friends, laughed a lot...good times.

After the game yesterday, the bartender asked why aren't you whoopin and hollerin over the win? I said we (UK fans) expect to win, nothing new. I'll start getting excited next week.

Good Morning D
 
Good luck with that one. FCC.

Everything worked out fine. I called and asked if there was any way they could delay the game until 3 pm so I could have my cake and eat it too.

I want to go to another wedding like that one again next week, or tomorrow. The amount of talent there was astounding. Actual wedding itself took about 10 minutes and I was able to set a new record on the game I play on my phone.

The game tipped off when we pulled into the parking lot of the bar. Errbody wearing UK gear and there I was in a suit and tie. Didn't slow me down though, beer went down easily.

After the game we headed over to the reception. It was a party! Most of the people there were spending the night at the motel next door so the liquor was flowing freely. My wife was going to drive us home so there was nothing slowing me down either. I did not dance.

I have a hangover.

The End
