Yes!! Little sister dropped in during the semi-meltdown in last few minutes. God, talk about bad timing. This team is special. Man, what a game. Double bye, good seed. Biggest win in years! I think Cal figured out his rotation.
D-League
- Thread starter Wildcat Droppings
- Start date
I guess they meant it!!!
I seriously hope Cal can just stay out of this team's way enough to let them play. Got some killers on this squad!
Tennessee seriously tried everything they could think of to win this game too. They could not... If UK and UT have to play again in the tourney it won't be SEC refs then... hopefully just five on five at that point...
Most people don't seem to care, but back when Adolph Rupp and UK got in trouble with NCAA, UT was the only school to stand up for UK and Rupp never forgot that. He was going to defy the NCAA and play a schedule despite them. All the SEC schools had privately told Rupp they would play, but the NCAA put pressure on the SEC and forced a vote. The only school who lived up to their word and voted pro UK was UT. After that any time he could, Rupp helped UT. Even though it has been many years ago, I try and remember how Adolph felt about them.
Houston beats Kansas by 30. Wow! Dickenson with a shoulder injury too. Kansas fans must be nervous.
Easily see reason UK ranked. Two of those wins came on the road.
I'm watching a recording of the F1 race earlier today. I don't think I have to go too far out on the limb to think that Max Verstappen and his Honda powered Red Bull machine will win...
You're way the heck down south aren't you? Safe travels.
Wow, saw where Vandy beat Florida!!!
Heck with this game, UK may only drop one place in the polls.
What a great day. 4 teams ahead of the Cats in the polls lost on the last day of the regular season. Baylor, Duke, Iowa State and Kansas. Arizona down by 4 at the half. Also, Knox picked UK. Stocking up again for next year.
Good Sunday morning everyone.
Well, despite maybe the worst last minute of a game I've ever seen.... we won. Awesome game. I think we owe a lot to Ugo and Thiero's defense early in the game. TN was intimidated. Reeves and Shepherd were awesome, and Edwards really has come around lately. Looking forward to the tourney now.
It looks like I may miss Friday's game....watching a nephew play HS baseball. It will be the first time I've had a chance to see him play. The next game I'll be driving home from a meeting and will listen on the radio.
We've got a couple of special presentations at church today from Creation.com (sp). Watch some of the games between sessions and then off to the lake tomorrow.
I hope everyone has a great day.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 47°F, cloudy with a light wind. Today's high may reach 66°F.
Yesterday's game: Only 5 Cats scored. But it was enough. Edwards, Reeves. Dillingham and Sheppard went 15-24 from Trey-ville. Those 4 players collectively shot over 60% from downtown. Just incredible. 9 blocks surely helped the effort. Nobody in the country can beat such offense and defense. Keep it going, Cats!
Income taxes: Nearly finished with return. Looks like gonna owe IRS big this year. Bah!
Packing more later today. Taking Pop-Tarts over to Germany for a old friend. And bourbon for another old friend.
Wishing y'all a delightful Sunday.

Good morning folks. Still buzzing about the Cats' win. Everything coming together at the right time for this team.
Great to see Edwards' development, especially after the ignoramuses on Rupp spent all of November, DEcember and most of January saying the kid had no talent. It was obvious from the first day he had talent -- just like it was with Ron Mercer, who also took a while to find his comfort zone. Anyway, not a day to be negative. A great day to be a Cats fan.
Back from a long hike. IT is a beautiful late winter morning in the east. Hope you all have a great day.

Good morning all,
Spring forward in Cat land. Heading out shortly to church ....
God Bless you all and your family's...

Same here. I did not like the chances for a UK win yesterday but dang I am go glad that I was wrong.
I hope that this team is peaking at the right time.
I did not think we would win either, but I went with my old attitude of not going against UK in the Old Reds prediction thread and picked UK to win 86-83. Actually made the top 10 this time for only the second time this season. Who'd a thunk it.
Man been too busy this weekend BUT, got a lot accomplished....
NOW looking at the taxes..... Just OUCH!!!!
NOW looking at the taxes..... Just OUCH!!!!
We owe $6,697. Paid in over $8K already. SOB.
I have no idea where I will be on taxes this year. Anxiously waiting on my CPA's word. It is very complicated this year.
I've been doing ours for a few decades now. When I had my own business I hired a CPA. (A couple). Of those two, I never got what I felt was their fiduciary responsibility to do their best to save me money. I keep exact records of expenditures and they seemed never willing to take the time to do what I called, good work.
I did my own payroll as well when I had 11 employees and was audited a couple times. Never had any issues.
I always try going by, "don't lie and you do not have to remember what you said." Do that in business as well... Yep, lots of work but I keep what's ours better that way.
Have not done ours yet but the last few years we have been getting smaller and smaller refunds. Will probably start paying soon. Imagine how bad it will get when the Trump tax cuts expire.
Yep, some are better than others. Back in the good old days when business was booming, we had a guy come in and ask if he could review our returns. He found 50 grand in mistakes our CPA had made. Later he helped us a lot on other things. One of the smartest people I ever met. We switched to him and stayed with him till he retired and sold his firm. We stayed with the lady he sold to and I think she is pretty good. I try to be honest about my taxes (and all things). There are a couple of maybe things, but I told our CPA that I wanted no IRS trouble so we would skip anything we are unsure about as I don't want the IRS at my door.
Last year was the least I ever remember paying. I try to keep it close. I don't like the government using my dough all year. (Just me...)
On taxes: I made good money, invested and worked for a good company.
I am 77 years old and I pay taxes out of my ass.
The U.S. has a socialist system now and the folks who make money have to pay for the lazy assholes who do not do shit. Sorry but that is the case.
Just watch who you vote for.

Does that include the underpayment penalty?
Got our return completed right before we took off on vacation. Then while we’re out here get an email that one mutual fund company had corrections to their 1099 Div. Now have to file amended return when we get back next week.

Yes Sir,
I see first hand up where I live all the "freebies" given and a beggar on every corner but the beggars are coordinately begging... It is becoming a racket as some MUCH "tax" money is taken and given away by those that are not directly paying for it... (I will stop...)
Had a guy come up to me just a few days ago begging as I was getting into my car. When I told him no he had the nerve to look me in the eye and tell me..."I am 62 years old and I deserve help from someone." I looked him right back in his eyes and stated... "I am 62 years old too, glad to meet you but I'd dig a hole and sit next to it and fall in it and die before I came up to anyone like you are doing begging. Take a hike...I have grand kids who need my dough." (This was a white dude if it matters...)
Call me harsh (This is NOT political.) but I have been in that guys shoes when I was a lot younger and I KNOW what I would do as I went to 150 pounds and never begged anyone for anything. I'd have died first. Starved to death and know it but I'd have never begged for myself.
Note: Thus guy never said anything about kids or family...just himself. The skank.
Just think if 25 million or so illegals were not in this country how affordable it would be.... Gas, food, and most everything else. I do not hate illegals but I do hate there crimes and any who harbor them.
Taxes would sure go down too... a LOT...
There is a process to come here legally.
I will stop...
Good post.
I have never got a dime in charity, except from Mom and Dad.
I hate free loaders.
Sir,
I love old people and children. I'd do most anything for them. Just irks me to no end seeing an able-bodied man begging. I have no tolerance....
Yep. These bottom few days remind us a lot of Alaska.
Watching the IU-MSU game, just hoping both lose. Can't figure out why the Indiana fans keep cheering lets go loosers! Oh wait it's lets go Hoosiers, my bad!😂😂😂😂😂
Good morning all,
Up real early, windy, gotta watch the trash can. Normally the garbage men are on the street by now....
Heading into the office a little early... Have a great day.....
Don't get Lion bit....

Good morning from ATX. Currently 56°F and clear. Breezy. Today's high may reach 72°F.
Shipped firearms should arrive today in Smiths Grove. Gun store will contact Cuz so he can drive drive over, perform transfer and pickup.
Former brother in-law Andre just contacted me via Facebook messenger. Another former brother in-law, Dirk, wanted to meet-up, but can't until March 29. Dirk lives/works in Switzerland. I'm returning March 25. Last saw him back in 2012.
Still have not yet packed. Getting on it tonight after work.
Monday, Monday....
Wishing y'all an awesome start to your week.
