D-League

[AustinTXCat]

Good morning from ATX. Currently 41°F and clear. Our high today should come in around 68°F. Yesterday, we received decent soaking rainfall totaling about 1/2". We sure need it.

Another disappointing loss yesterday. Ugh. Can our Cats reverse this losing streak and beat those evil Cards next Saturday? Stay tuned.

Christmas shopping is complete. Daughter received that $551 laptop last month. I picked up an iRobot Roomba 675 yesterday for the wife. It rates higher for tile floors than the Roomba e5 according to reviews.

I'm gonna jump on a few chores after while.

Wishing happiness and health to all our fellow D-League members on this fine Sunday.

I think the event tomorrow night, I think some believe that it's going to be this blinding glowing star in the sky, I don't think so, I wish it was Jupiter and Venus or Mercury, that would be a different look!!!

One article I read the other day was talking about it happening in the afternoon. ??? And I was thinking, man it would have to be awful bright where you could see it during the day with a telescope or binoculars. But this article I think is accurate....right after dusk. Plus, weren't you the poster a week or so ago talking about the meteor shower? According to this article, the same night as the Christmas Star (tomorrow night) there is another shower...not as intense tho'.

Good morning D, just a nasty ole day, but it is the LORD'S DAY!!!!!

2 day priority mail, day 7 still no package!!!

I think the event tomorrow night, I think some believe that it's going to be this blinding glowing star in the sky, I don't think so, I wish it was Jupiter and Venus or Mercury, that would be a different look!!!

I remember if we lost to NC (national cheaters) I would have been torn up for a week, but now, I don't know!

Prayers for the D! We handed out our CHRISTMAS baskets Saturday, We have a pantry that members sign up for what they will bring (20) of each, we gave them away with each one probably being over $200, great baskets!!!!

Mrs. M made 10 orange juice cakes yesterday, taking 7 of them to our friends today. We froze one for the police dept., we will take that one Thursday to them!!!

Have a great one D!!!!

Yep. They will be separated by 6 arc minutes (about the thickness of a dime held at arms length) and that will probably be too much for them to look like they are conjoining into one. But it will be close. Anyone wanting to take a glance should look to the SW, they will appear very low on the horizon just after sunset. With binoculars you will be able to see Jupiter, Saturn and the moons IO, Callisto and Europa.

Cal said he is where he is today because of "White Privilege". There are many Cat fans who feel the same as you. I have talked to them.

Don't you think that if Cal actually believed this nonsense, that he would step down and let someone who really 'earned' the position to take over. Just sayin......

Anyone forecasted to have a white Christmas?

Anyone forecasted to have a white Christmas?

Not us. Last time Austin received snow on Christmas happened in 1939.

 

[Sawnee Cat]

The cat just fell into the pool. Again.

Anyone forecasted to have a white Christmas?

No, just cold and windy. High of only 27 degrees.

 

[cordmaker]

They are calling for snow for us in Western (Berg) Ky Thursday.

 

[cordmaker]

For those who get METV, I saw where they are going to start showing the old cartoons on Saturday mornings that we grew up with!

$60 million. Buyout? Surely that is wrong.

If this is true then UK needs to stop sending letters requesting money from the alumni. Apparently they have money to burn to come up with a contract like that. That is criminal

Got a letter yesterday asking me to will my "Estate" to UK to help students and to do the same with my life insurance.

 

[warrior-cat]

Morning Legionnaires!

Over it already. Have decided to watch with the expectations of a loss this year each time we hit the floor. If we win it will be a bonus. Not going to be on the edge of my seat. Cal's criticism is deserved. You get paid the money and are the captain of the ship, you get the prize regardless of what it is.

Now, on to Christmas and the reason for the season.

Glory to god in the highest! We win in the end with God at the helm.

They say the more you lose the easier it becomes. They sure do not sting as they once did. Yesterday the Cats lost to a team I want them to beat more than any other. But when the UNC player hit back to back three's I felt the team would fold. And I had no feeling. It was like I was watching Ole Miss lose to Mississippi State.

 

[BBUK]

This may be the saddest most disgusting tweet I have read following a UK basketball game. Turmoil is a mild word to use with this stuff going on.

Placate them again Cal. Placate them...give'em what they want.... UKFLMT (UK Fans Lives Matter Too)

Oh, and God is STILL in control. Always has been, always will be. Trust in God. Give praise only to him.

Yes, Elizabeth, you can call out the bad and still be Godly...

Good report.

It is a 44.4°F gloomy day.

Alabama got a good fight from Florida. I was hoping for a larger margin for Alabama to totally firm up the number one slot for a championship.

I hope you all have a good day.

I am praying we will someday have an offense, especially the passing game, both of these programs do. It makes for exciting football.

I was admiring my Pagan family "Tree of Life" and although not a Catholic, have learned, like Ignatius of Loyola, to see GOD in all things. Each light an ancestor. Each ornament a blessing. Jesus the gift of enlightenment for man.

I'd very probably throw a cat in.... Yeah, I don't like pushing cats...

I read that Keion Brooks did the post game press interview yesterday. But he did not play in the game which I thought was strange. I don't know if a UK player has ever done that before. I can't remember it happening.

Which brings me to a question. What is the matter with Keion Brooks? He has not played in a single game and I thought he was projected as the leader of this years team. Is he injured? Does he have grade problems? What the heck is going on and why such a secret.

Secret rumor is he's symptomatic of a torn calf muscle. When you hop around on it, even an itty bitty bit, it hurts like the Dickens. Wouldn't want to saddle him with that too!

Anyone forecasted to have a white Christmas?

They may see one up on top.

Oh, but I DO hope you all are having a GREAT day and I DO wish you the very merriest of Christmas seasons no matter the circumstances. Jesus IS the reason for the season. Focus on him and all will be okay! God Bless you all AND your families!

Thanks BBUK. Yes Jesus is the reason for the season.! Enjoy the season and family Plus the wonderful food.

 

[BBUK]

never ever in my wildest thoughts would I say go cards, but the exception comes when your coach supports a markist anti America group ..so for Cal, I say go cards...hate me all ya want... it is what it is... As a life long cat fan, you have no idea how it hurts me to say that..

Just to clarify my anger. I am very angry that a UK fan is put in your situation to where you are reacting like you never thought possible.

Yes, I am at that point too for a while now. The current record only solidified I was correct in my anger. What a horrible and terrible position to put anyone into. Yes, Cal sickens me to the point of disdain.

I had no idea he has a torn calf muscle. I wonder when this happened. On Pro Day he was hopping, and a running and a jumping in front of the pro scouts as if 100%. And now he is on injured reserve. What a season

 

[AustinTXCat]

5th bowl game in a row. Go Cats!

 

[Ben101er]

Anyone forecasted to have a white Christmas?

Right now, the forecast for Christmas eve is 70% chance of snow showers, with a low that night of 19 degrees, so we may get some. Our high Christmas day is only going to be 23 degrees, so it's a real possibility

Hurt like the Dickens? Is this a Christmas pun?

 

[Ben101er]

Okay, in light of the season and to help you get through this painful basketball, I am going to give you some words of encouragement. Every time someone complains about Cal, an angel gets his wings.

If this don’t get me into heaven, nothing will.

I was at that game, in Columbus. Bogans was at about 75% and the officiating was suspect.

If Bogans had been healthy that game that white boy who lit us up for Marquette wouldn’t have been in the game because he was to slow to guard anyone but Bogans!

I believe Steve Novak of Marquette lit us up from downtown going 5/8 on treys. Chuck Hayes got in foul trouble and went scoreless. Bogans played on a sprained ankle. Nightmarish game.

I had an afterlife also, not sure i ever mentioned it to the D. Will expound later, meanwhile, welcome back.

 

[Woodrow_Call_1998]

Welcome back Murph, sorry, Woodrow.

Lol I’m going to start posting more here. Rafters is getting to depressing at times. This has been a shitty year. Always good conversations here
