We are better than both those teams, but after last night, that really doesn't mean anything. That's sad to feel that way.

Pretty neat video for the car guys.

When we do our preseason predicting there is one team I never put down as a win. Tennessee. History is against us. They have beaten our best ever teams in the past such as a win over Bear Bryant's Orange Bowl team that won 10 games and of course last year. At least Bryant got beat by a good Tennessee team. Last year's UT team was sorry. The great 1977 team had a hard time with Tennessee. They won but the game was much closer than it should have been. So if I feel as bad after this years UT game as I do this morning it will not be the first time.
I hope we go on a long winning streak but looking at our secondary tells me that will be a hard thing to do. Plus we have a questionable field goal kicker and a coach that does not like to score a lot of points. .
Thanks that was great. A giant VW bug.. LOL. And hand made to boot.
Good morning all, Well, that game last night was a kick in the nuts. And that game was the perfect example as to why I, along with lots of other people, are losing interest in college Football.
How in the hell do you penalize a defensive tackle for targeting? This is a guy who has people hanging on him, he stumbling over people, getting held and pushed, but SOMEHOW he has the ability to " target " someone? ABSURD! I know why the rule was put in, but to flag a D-tackle with targeting goes against the spirit of the rule.
I don't blame the Refs, they are enforcing the rule as the NCAA tells them to. It's just a terribly shitty rule. The NCAA has ruined college Football and Basketball with their ridiculous rules. I'm to the point where I don't really care if I watch the next game or not. The NFL ruined Pro Football, and I haven't watched a pro game in years because of the ridiculous rules. Son number 1 works for the NFL. He is on a field somewhere every Sunday, and he told me attendance isn't what it used to be.
Sorry for the rant, I will now get off my soapbox. Hope you all have a relaxing, restful Sunday

You weren't on a soapbox. You were in the pulpit with the rest of us.
You know we're screwed when in the EMU game a 5 yard penalty for a procedural violation that had no impact on the play, offsets a 15 yard, OMG TARGETING penalty. Where is the sense in that?
This is pretty much how I feel.
Now that I have had the requisite amount of coffee to approach functionality, a few thoughts on the game.
1. Line play was stout.
2. Smith will be fine. Mistakes of errant throws and questionable decisions are coachable corrections.
3. Gators receivers were confirmed as their best players. And any team the Cats play with a serviceable QB and good receivers will be a real threat.

I'm spent this morning. Couldn't sleep. My mind kept replaying the low points of the game last night. The 4th down, targeting calls, missed FG, 19-0 4th quarter, back-up Gator QB looking like a Heisman candidate, etc. I could go on but it's just too exhausting.
This is a perfect illustration for UK football. TeasersUK football...
Afternoon.
Horrible game.
It is already 90.9°F but the humidity is only 27%.

Hey Bert, glad you could join us. I've got a chicken bacon ranch casserole in the oven. Plenty of sharp cheddar and mozzarella cheese in there for ooey gooey goodness.
D-League,
It's been brought to my attention that I have surpassed the 1000 mark for posting comments on this forum.
Ok, now back to whatever it was we were talking about.....

Congrats. Now go catch Don!
In order for me to catch up with Don, how long would it take me? It has taken me nearly 5 years to reach 1000.

This is pretty much how it is. I also think of the Charlie Brown cartoon where he tries to kick the football and the girl pulls it out from him just as he is about to kick it
Today's fishing report: Warriorcat-- 5 LMB---3. Hooked 8 landed 5. Kept 2 for fillets (Between 2 and 3 Lbs each) turned 3 loose. But, 2 of the 3 that got away would have probably been the biggest I have caught in the last few years. Whopper Plopper's were bringing them in today and those two broke my lines (14 lb test) and took my lures. I got one near the bank and it got caught in the grass and weeds. Other one just fought until the line broke. Was sick to my stomach because I saw both of them and they were big.
Rattler pond. Going again next week and wearing my waders to get through the grass just in case.

Only about 400 years. It's about the journey, not the destination.
Just finished watching Sands of Iwo Jima.
John Wayne dies
Yep. I'm in the middle of Donavons Reef now. John the mans man to John the ladies man.
Don and Tommy have whetted my appetite to watch a good movie. So after supper that is what I am going to do. I might lay off football for the next week just to clear my mind.
John Wayne marathon on HDMV
I am watching "Night Of The Comet". Just happened upon it.
My daughter and son in law after a round of golf today.
She gets the freckles from me.

I watched that movie several times back when it was a staple on HBO.
We ended up settling on It's A Mad Mad World. I needed something light hearted to clear my head of gators. .
"I'm coming to get you momma"!
It has to be one of the craziest movies in history. The cast had every comedian star of that day.
Yep. When people heard about the movie they were calling up and asking to be in it. There are a lot of people you'll recognize in the background.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 80°F and clear. 20% chance of rain. We hit 100°F again yesterday and could see just 98°F today.
I prepared a vegetarian pasta salad yesterday for our potluck today at work. Pics coming.
