D-League

Good morning D-League. It's currently 67° and cloudy here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring rain and a high of 81°.

Great win by the Cats last night. I wonder if the Cats get the same love in the upcoming rankings as Florida did last week, I doubt it.

Everyone stay safe on this Sunday.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and mostly cloudy. Today's high expected around 94°F. No rain in our forecast for at least the week.

Awesome win last night. Agree with Bert. From the time Gators awarded that safety, UK scored 19 straight and unanswered points. Great poise in a hostile environment. Cats play 3 more road games this season (Ole Miss, Missouri, UT). All look winnable.

Usual shopping and chores on agenda today. Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

In memory of 9/11....
 
It is 71.1°F, cloudy (80% chance of rain) and 77° is the high. It has sprinkled a little rain so far.

I am still high on last night's game. That second half was mostly Kentucky.

Enjoy you Sunday folks.

Arrest him... (Yeah, I cherry-picked my information Sir.) 😁 I'd never take you out of context... Nooo...;)
 
Remembering the Pentagon victims of 9/11 who sometimes get overlooked.

I’ve mentioned before I was there that day. Saw many things I’ll never forget. Also knew one on the passengers who was on the plane that crashed into the Pentagon - a smart and lovely woman named Barbara Olson who was a Congressional lawyer and wife of Bush solicitor general Ted Olson.
 
NKy 911 Memorial below in Crescent Springs at corner of Buttermilk Pike and Collins Road. Base is a pentagon with words for each site that was attacked. Brown steel is a beam from a tower. The towers shown are about 10' tall. Member of FDNY attended dedication in 2015. Our home is about 1/3 mile away 20 degrees to right of straight on. Walked by it earlier this a.m. and just drove past it.

To the Bengals faithful:

Had a chance to win it at the end of regulation with an extra point attempt and had it blocked. Had a chance to win it in the overtime period and badly missed a 29-yard field goal attempt. Steelers kicker missed the next one and the Bengals were in range again but went for more yardage and Burrows fumbled himself out of field goal range. Steelers got within a 53-yard field goal attempt range with 5 seconds left and made it look easy that time. Burrows was sacked 6 times and was intercepted 2 or 3 times. The new Oline is supposed to be better than last years but...
 
I edited the Florida game and Sherry and I watched it again. Greg McElroy and Joe Tessitory could not have been more biased than they were. If Florida was doing something good their voices would elevate to a higher pitch. When Kentucky did something good it was down graded.

When you live in Sales and Marketing you pick up on intonation. Those two were as biased as hell. Of course this opinion is from a very biased old Kentucky fan.

I love Kentucky being in the top ten. I hope and pray that they can stay there. This is rare territory for Kentucky football. Stoops for President.
 
Not seen ymmot post in a while. Same for Don..
Ymmot's fine. I speak with Ymmot every month or so. He threatens to return. I was a rare bird being absent during the summer dog days but I'm back with Basketball and Football both interesting right now. Sure helps our programs to have Alpha Dogs (Levis and Oscar) on our teams to provide the leadership only a peer can bring. D things always pickup in September. That might catch Ymmots interest again. I too am concerned about Dons' absence and keep him in my prayers. I miss his wit and intellelect. Your presence is appreciated. Retired for federal service now just over a year, I've been lurking the political board as my muzzle has been removed. Good have you here. You always have a chair.​

Good morning from ATX. Currently 72°F and clear. Today's high expected around 94°F. We'll take it.

Lots of good NFL games yesterday. Watched a few. Cowboys still can't beat Tom Brady. Ha ha.

Continuously excited and happy for our KY Wildcat football. Awesome performance Saturday.

Monday, Monday.... Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Good Monday Morning D

Well it is great living in Florida after the Wildcats beats the Gators in football. The morning radio man is still mourning, going on a rant this morning and finishing the rant with I don't want to talk about it anymore so don't call and mention it. :)

The folks have all gone now, three went back to Texas, one back to Ocala and the other 5 down to Indian Rocks Beach for a week in the sun. Life is good. I like our No 9 ranking. We might even move up a little over the next couple of weeks. I hope C Rod is back soon especially for the Ole Miss game. We need him.

I trust all are well and in good spirits. It is great to be a Wildcat.
 
Good morning D-League. Monday seems sweeter when the Cats are in the AP Top Ten. I read that last happened in 2007 but I certainly don't remember that. Seemed more like when I was in college in the 77-78 time frame, with probation looming.

The Bengals laid an egg but I'm not overly concerned yet. For one thing, after last year's miracle it felt like playing with house money. But more significantly, there is no way on earth they play that poorly again and still had multiple opportunities to win and should have. I really question not playing Burrow one down during pre-season, if I'm right about that. He could not have been more rusty.

Still cool and cloudy in the east. Fall weather a bit early. Hope all is well with all you fellows.

I remember that year. They started 5-0 then lost 5 of their next 7 games. I forget who but one commentator claimed that Woodsen should a Heisman candidate and the SEC was Kentucky's to lose. As Kentucky fans back then we knew how wrong he was.

Played two OT games that season. Beat #1 LSU in Lex during 3rd OT and lost to #19 UT after 4 OT in Lex. Good year for Coach Brooks. Beat FSU in Music City Bowl.

Poor special teams' application or the lack thereof was their downfall yesterday.
 


Morning Legionnaires!

High 80's today with mid 90's for the rest of the week and the foreseeable future.

Doing the Mr. Miyagi thing here in about an hour.

Going to Dallas on Saturday-Monday (3 hour drive) with an old Drill Sergeant buddy and the guy who runs our softball team. both retired military like me. The softball guy is from Texas originally and the Drill Sergeant buddy is from Oklahoma (Choctaw indian) and both are Dallas fans. Will be my first ever live Bengals football game.
 
It is a pretty sunshining day. It was 59°F when I got up and now it is 63.1° and to top out at 76°F. Fall is on the way.

Well I watched the second half again last night, just for the hell of it. The defense was on a mission.

Kentucky is now Number 9 and 10 in the polls and Notre Dame actually fell out. ND went from number 5 to zip in two weeks! :) But would you believe that they still got votes.

Happy Monday.
