50° this morning with light winds. High to be in the mid 60's with rain coming in later this afternoon.

2nd day after the election and excitement gone. Will not be exited again until January 20th. Will not be overly excited as we all know fixing the problems caused by Biden and his Kabal (yes spelling, I just like using K for it) will take some time. Still waiting on the House for full affect. Not sure why it takes some of these states so long to finish with their votes. Trying to keep the pubs from keeping the house and getting the trifecta I guess.

Thursday after the hump helps a bit going into the weekend. Wife took tomorrow off to have a 4 day. Oddly enough we thought she would have a lot of time off because, at the end of last year they were saying her job was going away with the new contractor in May. The new contractor has not taken over yet because the old one has the contract in litigation saying the awarding of the contract to the new company was not legal. Litigation continues and she says no one knows for how much longer. Many of her workers are looking and some have already left for other jobs anticipating the axe to fall. We quit worrying about it and just leave in God's hands.

You folks be careful out there and God Bless.

And DEPORT, don't forget DEPORT SIr. (Do hope you are not dealing with that crap...)

Good morning, it is Friday Eve folks.

64.0°F and overcast. We are supposed to top out at 66°. Yesterday we got .66" of rain and we can used every little bit of it. We may get a little more today.

@TheFrontRunner I am with you. I love Pope's style of play. He defends and actually has an offense trying to score points instead of see Cal playing not to lose and over managing the team until they are confused.

I agree, Cal seemed to make his own team nervous late in games with all that stuff. The offense is a night and day difference. The passing is great (love having a center that can pass like Williams) and any team where every one on the floor can shoot is my kind of team.

Good morning folks. Another beautiful day in America. Clear and cool in DC.

Busy day at work, so just checking in. Can the Bengals stay relevant in the NFL season? We’ll find out tonight.

You folks have a good one.

Good morning everyone

It's just another day and a half for the next UK game. I'm looking forward to it. I may watch some of the Bengals game tonight. I just don't watch much sports at all other than UK anymore. Who would have thought?

I saw the big bear that I posted a pic of a week or two ago.

Not much on the agenda officially today...just a men's discipleship group study this evening.

I hope everyone has a great day.

 

[BBUK]

Hello All,

Been busy but AM thankful...

Working, working, I am again thankful... Have a great day!

Trump won big. Good bye Chuck as the Senate Majority blocking everything. It looks like the house will stay with the Republicans so the little bastards can't impeach Trump at the least the first two years.

Drill baby drill, close the border, stop law fare, make the Trump taxes permanent, force Iran to their knees etc.

I read where Scumer is still at it though, read where he's trying to introduce a bill aimed at Trump!!

 

[cordmaker]

So in the last few years we've had president #44, #45, #46 1/4 and now #47 I hope Trump helps turn our country around in the right direction!!!!

Good morning from ATX. Currently 72°F and cloudy. Today's high may reach 83°F. No rain expected for next 10 days or so.

Happy Friday, y'all.

The Bungles. 😒Shifting to CBB now and writing them (The Bungles) off for this year. Will probably still watch some of their games, but only if I have nothing else to do.

 

[BBUK]

Good morning all,

Hopefully a quiet day working from home. No meetings FINALLY.

The BB should be here shortly, going to make his breakfast of pancakes and orange juice to give My Darling a break. The BB's Mom is going to a gym class she likes so Papa will take him to school though my daughter lives within walking distance of his school....

Well....

Have a fine day!

Good morning D-League.

Happy Friday. Looking forward to the Cats' hoops game Saturday. It'd be nice to come away feeling confident for the Duke game Tuesday.

My wife is heading to NYC to visit her ailing aunt. My three kids are scattered to Philly, Texas and KC, so I'm alone again, naturally.

It'll be okay to have some time alone this weekend, just to absorb all that has happened in my life, and with the election. I'm enjoying this Schadenfreude Phase of the election cycle, to use the German word for pleasure from anothers' misery, watching the smug, arrogant, sneering class of elitists make asses out of themselves and in some cases actually break down emotionally. Kudos to the good work of our fellow posters on the Politics thread.

Hope you all have a good day.

Sure wouldn't mind running into you/ meeting you one day. You be good people. Hard to stay that way where you landed. I can somewhat relate but from the view from afar your path has been much much more difficult to remain....human.

I too have listened to leadership with the snide and tart remarks. (The remarks are more evident now.) Not so much conceit in the tone now though. That part makes me feel good. (Wish I could share a document that was just put out.) Take care...

Thanks BB. I'd enjoy that too. Meanwhile, have a great weekend my friend.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 59°F and clear. We may hit 78°F today. Heh, I'm still wearing shorts. Expecting 78°F for our high.

Bucknell visits Cats. Game starts at 4 pm ET. Football off this week.

Headed out for a hike soon. Y'all behave.

 

[MdWIldcat55]

Good morning D-League. Sunny and cold in the east. A beautiful morning for a long Saturday run.

Game day. I’d love to see continued signs of a new day for the basketball Cats.

That said: I’m superstitious about nothing in life, except sports. That’s leftover from boyhood I guess. And this morning I saw a car with a BUCKNELL basketball sticker! I’m quite confident I’ve never seen one before in my life, and on game day!

I’m hoping Pope’s magic overcomes even such a clear and loud jinx.

We’ll know soon. Have a great day.

Morning D-Leaguers. It was a crisp 52°F here this morning at sunrise and now it is 57.4° on our way to a cloudy 66°F with little chance of rain.

I have watched too much news because I love seeing some of the more hateful dudes have to eat crow.

I also enjoyed seeing the stock markets react so positively. Maybe we will get some reasoned economic decisions come January 20th. I have a lot of hours in econ and making my living in a very competitive industry. The last four years was like living in economics never never land. Those dude did not know their economics from their asses.

I look forward to the game this afternoon.

Enjoy your Saturday.

Passing through from Nashville (hate that Nashville traffic with a passion) yesterday Stopped at the Bucc-ee's near you for gas and we both got a brisket sandwich. 12.99 I think for the biggest one. It was filling and good.

 

[berniecarbo]

Btw at the KY and TN border near Franklin KY on 65, there was a whole bunch of emergency vehicles with lights flashing and traffic was stopped going south. Anyone know what happened? It was probably around fourish.

 

[berniecarbo]

Morning Legionnaires!

America is back! The people have spoken.

Enough said.

I don't recall if I have told you, but I have a cousin who retired a few years ago from the army. He was a Green Beret and retired as the first Sgt for Petraeus. He lives near Fort Campbell and is very active in veteran's stuff. He just did a meet and greet for all the recruiters in his area last week.

 

[UK82]

Good game Cats! Brea is one deadly shooting machine. On to Duke.

 

[BBUK]

Eating on Styrofoam plates but look at the content...

I AM Thankful!!!

 

[warrior-cat]

Still too early to really evaluate the Cats, but I don't remember Calipari teams passing the ball as good as this one does even against cupcake opponents this early in the season. Nor shoot as well either. Maybe I missed it.

I got stoned and I missed it, I got stoned and I missed it. I got stoned and it rolled right on by.

 

[TheFrontRunner]

I know it doesn't matter, but at the end of the game we had 98 points and Garrison had 2 FTs to get us to a 100. And hit them both. Normally I wouldn't care about 98 or a 100, but this is the Pope era...we like hitting a 100 every game now haha

 

[MdWIldcat55]

Good morning folks.

The Cats definitely looked ready in their final tune up before Duke. Not a great team shooting game but excellent ball movement to get good shots. And we know these guys will make their share.

Calipari’s teams would have one of these cupcake games where the team was cold and he’d take the air out of the ball and win by 12 while scoring 70. This is more fun.

Oh yeah, and remember the “jinx” of the Bucknell basketball sticker I spotted on a car in the subway? Well, I was headed downtown anyway, so I parked along side him with my car that has a large UK DAD sticker in the back windshield. Neutralized the jinx. He has gone when I got back and had to see my car, so I wonder if he thought, “damn, what are the odds that on the day we play Kentucky, a guy parks next to me with a UK sticker in DC? BBN is everywhere!”

Heading out for a run. Hope you all have a great day.

 

[AustinTXCat]

Good morning from ATX. Currently 61°F and partly cloudy. Today's high could reach 86°F.

Yeah, Cats looked good yesterday. Another enjoyable game.

Heading out around 6:30 am CT for a walk. Wishing y'all a peaceful Sunday.

 

[BBUK]

Good morning all,

Sitting in front of my church drinking coffee.

Contemplating what's next. I have much to do and being dragged in a lot of directions. Trying to keep self out of it to make the best decisions. No worries but darn, I'd like to take a vacation.

Haven't watched a John Wayne movie in months....


Have a day Blessed by God.....

 

[UK82]

Ole Miss took down UGA yesterday. Coincidentally, Ole Miss was the last team UK beat way back on September 28th. UT on top of the SEC (for now). Damn it! It's going to be a wild finish to the season.

 

[BBUK]

Still figuring out the cheapest way to watch the Cats. (Not going the dishonest way.)

Hope your day is going well for you all...

Are you looking to cut the cable cord for TV? I use Roku devices with YouTube TV and it's cheaper than Spectrum cable service. Supposedly Sling TV is one of the cheapest.

ESPN+ is roughly $12 a month. That ain't bad.

Although the SEC Network package is screwing UK I will pay to watch my Cats. Plus the other games on ESPN+, after they have played, they take most of the commercials out and you see basically the game.

UK should hold ESPN to the promises made when they got the SEC package. Those bastards make us pay for Big Blue Madness the Blue White game etc.

Thanks yeah I had Sling for a little bit but My Darling and I don't watch TV.

Yes Sir,

I just saw that, probably the way I will go. I sure like that there is no contract. Thanks

I use Spectrum for my internet because they give me my land line for $19.00 a month which covers North America and all U.S. territories. I use YouTube TV and add Prime, BritBox, ESPN+. Additionally my package with AT&T cell phone includes Max.

I love the DVR abilities offered by YouTube TV.

I also have Spectrum for internet and land line. Fortunately I've been able to watch the UK games televised on ESPN+ on SEC Network+ free of charge with the ESPN app. For some reason ESPN+ charges for the same game.

YouTube DVR is the best!

Good morning from ATX. Currently 61°F and clear. Today's high expected around 84°F.

Happy Veteran's Day, y'all.
