D-League
- Thread starter Wildcat Droppings
- Start date
That’s great, to make it to the state semi finals.
Thanks. I thought so, too. Their problem is that they only had 16 twelve year old players in their league to make up the team. Bowling Green had about 180. Where it really shows up is in the pitching. BG had the luxury of picking 6-7 best pitchers from their league, and Russell-Flatwoods had to get theirs from the same 16 kids. They couldhang with them with their top 2 pitchers, but by the time they played them in the Semi's, they had to use a lesser pitcher, and got hammered. What I think would make it more fair, is that when they get to the semi finals, they come back the next weekend, when every team's best pitchers are available. Never will happen, but until it does, the small programs will never beat the large ones. BG is really good, and seemed like a great bunch of kids. Hope they do well.
Good morning! Haven't had nearly enough sleep and I woke up sore and stiff. I don't think I can go back to sleep so I guess I'll just roll with it.

Today is Friday for me!...yipee
We have our biometric screenings at work. If we "pass" all of them we can "save" $50 a month on insurance. Criteria is your BP, glucose, cholesterol, BMI and one other one that I can't remember. I usually pass 4 out of 5 ($40). You gotta be a cross country runner to pass the BMI.
#3 is heading to Nashville with his girlfriend...(concert & bday)....hopefully I won't be a grandpa again in 9 more months.
A Caesar salad for lunch sounds good.... just romaine lettuce. Nothing else.

Tommy, week after next, the Ky State Sr Amateur is being played at Bellefonte. Anytime after that, you are invited to come down to play. Bring someone with you. Just let me know a date and I will make the tee time. You need a break from the construction.

According to my doctor the BMI was created to track groups of people and not individuals. Last time I saw him I was around 180 and it still said I was fat.
Sounds good Ben. Anyone here want to try and make it?
This is why I check the D League every morning.
This information will be a big help going forward because I am surrounded by critters, bugs and other species I can't identify. The other night something out in the yard scared the cat so bad it was knocking on the door to get back in the house. And this cat is a killer cat and always has some critter or another hanging out of it;s mouth. .
Good morning D League
It is time for me to get moving and i am going to do just that once I fill up my coffee mug. Looks like just enough for one cup left in the coffee pot. The skies are clear at the moment and showers should hold off until late this afternoon. The radio girl said some were out in the Gulf headed to the coast. This has been a comfortable summer weather wise for us. Forecast today says our current temperature of 73° should reach 89° by mid afternoon. Every thing down here is football oriented. Colleges are in full practice mode as are the NFL teams. Football is in the air.

TV shows I like to watch:
Ancient Aliens (Duh...obviously)
Expedition Unknown
Gold Rush
Mountain Men
What on Earth
Bering Sea Gold
Trains & Locomotives
Space's Deepest Secrets
Alaskan Bush People
Last Man Standing
I'm probably missing a couple of Documentary shows.
Obviously a heavy dose of History/Discovery/Science Channel shows...
Have they ever ONCE found what they set out searching for?
My wife faithfully watches Gold Rush, Bering Sea Gold and Alaskan Bush People. I saw a few episodes, but lost interest after a while.
Some of my KY relatives. Never heard of the show until now.

Gold Rush:
1 Stake a claim
2 Set up recently acquired patched up worn out equipment
3 Run some dirt, no gold
4 Move equipment to new location
5 Run some dirt, good potential
6 Start running hard, equipment breaks down, wait for parts
7 John Doe is screwing up, gets mad, gets run off
8 Finds enough gold to return next season.
The End.
Golf and lunch is on me. As for the BMI, I think it is just a scam by the insurance companies to charge higher rates on life insurance. Back in 1990, I was 5'11" and was 200 lbs. They told me I was obese and my body fat was only 7%.
Happy Birthday to a former Wildcat who scored 65 points over two seasons before transferring to Cornell.
45 years ago today. How time flies.
The average lifespan for a man currently is 78 years 
. Yet both Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden would be 78 when they took office if elected. Reagan was 77 when he left office and was considered by many to be much too old to be president at the time.
Here's how I see old Bernie.

A week after Nixon resigned I was over at Disney World and two men got into an argument over Nixon. The argument broke out into a brawl and one man picked up a large flower pot and planted it on the head of the other. Blood went every where. Lunatics were screaming and cursing and it was quite a scene.45 years ago today. How time flies.
My two children got an education that afternoon.
87.6°F, broken sunshine but only 60% humidity. For Kentucky in August that is low humidity.
I got my yard mowed this early afternoon. My back hurts too much to do the weekwhacking. That will have to wait til next week.
I ain't got nuttin' else.

It's bullshit. Makes no distinction about muscularity.
Uh, no.![[winking]](http://l.yimg.com/j/assets/img/emoticons/classic/wink.r191677.gif "Winking [winking]")
Don't remember why I quoted this but I bet I agree with what you said.

Joe has said so many dumbshit things over the last 40 years, no way he's the candidate.
Was 90° in my shop earlier but only 50% humidity.
Just had a hankering for one of these today. Brings back memories of my youth. Been around since 1955.

Seems to be a trend these days.

Bernie's ideas are getting really old, too.
Hey y'all. Been running hard. School starts tomorrow.
Uh, railroad has had back surgery. Doing as well as could be expected. Said he should go home tomorrow. FCC.

Good morning from ATX. Presently 80°F. Expecting 102-104°F for a high today. We hit 104°F yesterday. Triple digits expected through end of next week. Painful.
Happy Friday.
Happy Friday.
+1. Get well soon.
I remember, as a kid growing up, those things were gigantic. One required quite some time for consumption. Heh, seemed like half a day or so.Just had a hankering for one of these today. Brings back memories of my youth. Been around since 1955.
Good Morning D

Get well soon Railroad Cat. I have had 4 of them due to stenosis and I know how you are feeling. Our prayers are with you.
Good Friday morning D League
We are looking at a 30% chance of rain with a probably high of 90°. Typical August day. The Preseason NFL is here and that means we are closer to the start of the college season. I like it. We are not getting much if any love from the national writers and analysts so our team and coaching staff will have something to prove. Again. I think we will be much, much better than they are forecasting for us.
Thank the Lord for coffee this morning and thank the Lord I do not have any diet restrictions that would keep me from drinking caffeine. What a bummer that would be. Y'all have a great day and our thoughts are with you Railroad.
