Scottsville KY getting some love from the Weather Channel today with the video feed. Hopefully the Dr of Disaster Jim Cantori won't be paying you folks a visit any time soon...
Don't get me wrong, I loved Pitino when he was here and think he is one of the most knowledgeable basketball people I have heard of. However, my uncle coached high school and lower-level college basketball for 50 years. He and a group of local high school coaches attended a coaching clinic at UK when Rick was there. The group met him in a hallway one day. He said Rick acted like they were all peons and it was beneath him to waste any time with them.An Old Bumper Sticker From The Past

Louisville has a Club Champion store on Shelbyville Road. Lexington might have one as well. Highly regarded by Golf Digest.Where is the best place in the Lexington, Bowling Green, Louisville area to get fitted for golf clubs where you can try different brands. My daughter has went through 3 sets of clubs in the past 4 years due to growth spurts and I don't think she has finished growing. When she is done growing I plan to spend the money to get her fitted for new clubs to finish out her high school playing days. She currently plays mainly Cobra clubs but I would like for her to try some other brands to make sure she gets the ones that fit her the best. I know Dicks and some of those places do but honestly I don't trust them as most of the time it seems to be a young kid that may or may not know what they are doing.
Here's hoping for the best outcome. Best of luck to him.![]()
Morning Legionnaires!
50° with moderate winds and a high in the low 70's expected.
Got a text from my son who has the triplets (boys) last night and as stated before, one has Spina Bifida and is in a wheelchair. He (Benjamin) now 6 years old has been wearing a TLSO (Thoracolumbosacral Thoracic Lumbar Sacral Orthosis) brace for 1 1/2 years to help try and straighten his spine. It is working well as the pictures below (before and after) indicate. The after picture was taken yesterday. They are going to fit him with a new brace next Friday to continue the straightening. We are hoping and praying that somehow, one day, he will be able to walk even if it is just braces, but even if not, he has two other brothers his age to support him along the way.

I posted the old bumper sticker as a joke.lol. I agree with your uncle about Pitino and his entire family. His wife thought she was too good and above living in Lexington. My son was a UK student when he coached and I came up to a lot of games. I had a few interactions with Pitino and he acted like a little banny rooster aka a loud mouth Yankee know it all.Don't get me wrong, I loved Pitino when he was here and think he is one of the most knowledgeable basketball people I have heard of.

Quick discussion with my surgeon went very positive. He believes we caught this in time

Funny you posted this because I was going to say the same thing about Cal. All the times I've been at press conferences, which isnt really that much compared to others i know, you're a face to him. Nameless and void. You don't exist outside the media room, and barely exist inside of it. Then he talks to people like they know nothing about basketball. Everyone is there for him. Its.all.about.him.
It is a character flaw. A serious character flaw. Many have it but it doesn't make it right putting people like that ... "In charge"...
It's frustrating that society elevates people like that rather than the humble folks that help others and help make the world better. I suppose it is success that can warp the humble as well

Have a great day...
Hungary had the largest number and percent of Jews who avoided the Holocaust as their leaders were late to the Hitler side & still resisted sending their Jews "on vacation". Beautiful synagogue & memorial garden. Men had to wear head coverings for the tour. They said my UK ball cap was fine.Good morning D-League. It's currently 47° and cloudy here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will see thunderstorms give way to a steady rain and a high of 55°.
Have a great day.

Just checked out their website. Very interesting.Louisville has a Club Champion store on Shelbyville Road. Lexington might have one as well. Highly regarded by Golf Digest.
We had a thunderstorm with heavy rain a little before 7. Guess when I got up.Good Morning from rainy Smiths Grove. It is 55 and we already have had .50" of rain since I first got up and it is pouring right now.
Cord, have you seen anything like this? It made me think of you.I wish ATX would hurry up and get better, I'm about to starve, don't know what to eat without him telling what the food for the day is!!!!!
I had heard about one, but this is the first time I have seen it, thanks Bert!! My sister and her husband own a bicycle shop, Now I am going to have to call her and see what is the smallest rim that they have!!!!Cord, have you seen anything like this? It made me think of you.![]()
It is a nice little break in the action. Most of our guests who come down want to go so I have an annual pass. I would recommend a person try it one time, if it is not for you the park has a lot of other attractions. You can even take a dip in the water which is the same temperature all year long, about 72 degrees.@Sawnee Cat We didn't watch the mermaid show when we were at Weeki Wachee a few years ago. Is it worth seeing? We just did the kayaking and then on to something else.
Have a great day everyone.

I've never been fitted either but I do know people that have and they highly recommend it. I stopped playing about 20 years ago, not because I didn't enjoy the game but I just couldn't find the time anymore. I started playing at a young age too. 12 handicap in 2002.Just checked out their website. Very interesting.
Sounds like a great place to take your daughter.
I personally have never been fitted in my life and I am stuck at the brick wall of a 10-15 handicap.
May check that place out myself.
