D-League

[storm1507]

Good Sunday morning everyone!

I'm disappointed too. It's difficult to win when our 2 main 3 pt threats go 0-8 (I believe). Actually Kansas outplayed us on most levels. But time to put it behind us and move on to the Bengals game. Who would have thought that we would have a better Bengals team than UK basketball? Times change.

Dreary day it looks like here in the mountains so walking on the treadmill after church and then get ready for some football.

I hope everyone has a great day.

This is always a fun time when the Pirates take over Tampa Bay. We would get out of school for this during my school days. So off we would go to Tampa to watch the parade. People dressed like pirates would hand out free food. Spanish bean soup and Cuban sandwiches.

Good morning D-League. We currently have a light rain and 42° here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will be cloudy with occasional rain and a high of 48°.

I'm hoping for a round 3 Bengals-49ers Super Bowl. Like the previous two, I want to see Joe quarterback a game winning drive.

Have a great day.

 

[warrior-cat]

I will take Joe with a convincing win, it makes me calmer along the way.

I'm wanting 49ers fans to feel the agony of having a victory snatched from them like us Bengals fans had to endure twice.

I can't say that I was disappointed in the game last night. I truly felt that Kansas would win simply because they had lost three game straight and we playing UK which would get them up.

I did get excited when we got back to within one, but UK's shooters bombed out. CJ is not the same shooter he was at Iowa. The courts are the same but CJ can't shoot while wearing blue and white.

I did the hard part of the day first. I edited the game and made a bluray. That is over.

It is a dreary 47° here. We got .69 " of rain in a storm last night after the game.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 66°°F and raining. We're at our high for today. Cold front moving in. Feeling more like a Texas winter. Holding off on my morning walk until it clears.

Cats somewhat disappointed me some last night. Number of shots plus missed 3 pt FG stood out most in my mind. Again, gotta hand it to Bill Self. He brought his team into Rupp Arena ready to play.

Plan on working a few administrative issues and chores today. May bug a few posters in Political thread.

Go Bengals!

Wishing y'all a peaceful, restful day.

A long read, but with all the baseball and baseball card talk, if anyone is interested, here's a link. Also for Sawnee, a Mantle Card sold a few years ago for 12.6 million.

Took the monster out for a walk earlier this morning with 23° and winds 20-30mph making the chill factor in the teens. I bundled up well and was good. the monster loves it cold so, she was having a great time. Had to get her out today and maybe tomorrow. Possibility of freezing rain and snow starting Tuesday morning through Thursday.

Wife just saw one of those commercial ads about Camp lejeune water contamination law suits and ask if I was ever there. I told her that that was a Marine base and not Army. She immediately says "Well you could have been doing some kind of special secret tactical mission or something" I laughed and said "yeah, my code name was Agent Orange, that's right Agent Orange was my name I was in a special unit, airborne tactics, special army..."

Knowing I was quoting a movie or something she ask; "What movie are you quoting now?"

In my job, I came in contact with all our branches of service, plus that of a few other countries. At DaNang, our bomb dump was right across a narrow road from the marine bomb dump and a couple of miles off base. They put it off the main base, so if it blew up, they'd just lose some dumb cops and not their valuable people. I was ranking security man at the bomb dump on our shift , so I'd spend a lot of time at the ECP (entry control point). The marine ECP was right across the road from us, so I'd sometimes chat with them. I read a joke story once about the marines. There is 100 of them going on a mission. The commander is briefing them and says probably 99 of you will die. All 100 marines are thinking, "those other 99 poor b@stards are going to die." From my chats with them, there's a lot of truth in that story.

To her it was a warm 85°F.

Perfect for a swim!!!!

One of my first cousins, Major Charles Higginbotham, was a big imposing 145 lb. Marine. Three tours in Viet Nam and died last June 6th at 90 years old. He was little but tough as shoe leather.

His daughter is a lawyer who writes books. It is not my fault that she went to UNC.

OK here we go Bengals v Chiefs

In honor of the D League Bengal fans I am pulling for you. Light 'em up Joe Burrow.

Eagles are going to be tough to beat in the Super Bowl.

 

[Sawnee Cat]

Whoa baby! This could be a classic.

Gut punch loss. Really sorry for our D-League fans.

The Bengals season ended by a split second error in the last minute of the conference championship game. Who knows, they still could have lost in OT but we'll never know. Eagles will be a heavy favorite given the KC injuries.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 37°F, cloudy and windy. Drizzle coming down; however, roads should remain dry, We may remain in the 30s all of today. I'll ponder if I should cancel my usual morning walk or not.

Bengals-Chiefs game: Heart-breaker. Read Joseph Ossai took the loss hard. On the other hand, Bengals head couch strongly maintains loss came down to other factors, like second TO TO. I believe head coach, Zac Taylor.

Be proud, Bengals fans. Team now ranks among elite teams in the NFL. Two consecutive AFC championship game appearances. Not an easy task.

Gonna start work in a few. Wishing y'all a great beginning to the week and a wonderful Monday.

Glad we have something edible today, that crossword piece was tough chewing yesterday!!!!

Good morning D-League.

Well, the weekend was tough on Cats and Bengals fans. The Bengals losing the way they did especially made for lots of tossing and turning last night. From my 93-year old father to my 23-year-old son, we were pretty deeply invested this year.

Back to work on a cold, dark and dreary Monday. No time to dwell on a disappointment. A good cup of coffee will put me right.

Hope all of you get the week off to a good start.

Good Morning D

Tough loss for Bengal fans. Mistakes and penalties, a few I thought were questionable doomed Cincinnati. The chance was there to win .

Currently 60° and the high will be 84° with sunshine. 3% chance of rain.

I am looking forward to my work out this morning. Yes mam' I will have the second cup of coffee, thank you very much.

Had lunch along there one day. Didn't bump into Melania.

Good morning folks. It is a misty 43.0°F here with a 30% chance of rain and a high of 44.

I watched the complete Cincy game last night. If I had avoided it Cincy probably would have won. I will watch the Super Bowl game because I have never missed one, but I will be rooting for KC and I will assure Phily's win.

Keep the faith D-League UK may win a few more games and maybe get into the NCAA. I used to not worry about UK getting into the dance but not anymore. Worse still is last year UK was a 2 seed and gets knocked out in the first round. GEEZE.

 

[Catman100]

Brutal weekend with Cats and Bengals losing.
Cats win at Tennessee doesn't seem as good anymore.
Eagles should be favored in two weeks.

I got the feeling my watching the whole game and rooting for the Bengals (because of the D) lost the game. I felt like Cincinnati may pull it out the last minutes but too many mistakes, QB sacks and questionable calls doomed them.

The Eagles look solid and KC comes in beat up.

Get well BBUK, is a virus going around up there? This Florida sun would do you good.

Yes Sir,

A virus going around the BB's daycare I suspect and MY dumb arse drinking a ton more than I should have. I doubt I would have got as sick had I not splurged on the Spiced Rum.... I knew better and should have stopped at one or at most two... Four whipped me and I deserved it. The virus though was real as the BB, me, My Darling, and my youngest got it in that order.

I am able to wear a fitbit again and a heart rate that stays around 70 while resting raced at around 105 until this morning when I woke up for work. That is a scary situation... again self-inflicted...

What really caused me anguish.... I went to church this past Sunday morning with a "hangover"... Yeah, I have been ashamed ever since.. They say confession is good for the soul... I confess...

Yes we all need to take it to the Lord once in a while. It is good for the soul as they say.
I certainly fall into that category.
