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.

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.
Morning Legionnaires!
America is back! The people have spoken.
Enough said.
Good game Cats! Brea is one deadly shooting machine. On to Duke.
Eating on Styrofoam plates but look at the content...
I AM Thankful!!!

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.

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
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.

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.

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.....

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.
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.

Up a lot earlier than I expected to be but, oh well. I got 7 hours sleep.
God Bless our military and veterans... I am thankful...

YouTube has sports streaming and when you search for Kentucky it will pop up with a guy streaming it. I watched the first two exhibitions and the first game that way. People send him money if you want once to help him out, but you don't have to.
Morning Legionnaires!
44° this morning with a high of 74° expected.
Played 2 co-ed games yesterday and won both (10-9 and 17-6). Last 2 regular games of the fall season. We have a tournament next Sunday to finish it up. However, in the 2nd game in the 2nd inning, I hit a screamer to right center going past the center right fielder. Seeing it had gone past him I was already around first and headed for second and decided to turn it on and head for third. Bad decision, I have had a few injuries running over the years, but they were either Achilles injuries or plantar fasciitis which I still battle. I have never had hamstrings or quads pulls. Well, erase never on quads. I had a sharp pain as I started to pick up the pace and stopped at 2nd. The good thing is that we get pinch runners so, another guy took my place. Bad thing was, we had no other pitchers there yesterday, so I had to continue to play. Luckily, we run ruled them in the 3rd and I only had to play that extra inning. Maybe no tourney for me this coming Sunday.
Oh well, lazy days for me next few days. However, the monster still needs her walk. I can still walk, and she does not pull hard (most of the time) so I should be ok.
You folks enjoy the day off and God Bless.
Good morning folks.
A thanks to all the veterans among the D-Leaguers, and to veterans everywhere.
Already grinding away at the job. Mondays are the busiest day of the week.
Looking forward to tomorrow's game. I have to say I'm oddly and optimistic and calm about the outcome. We'll see soon enough.
I hope it is a good day for all.

I recall readin a story about this guy in SI when the incident happened. The shots from the 38 were all to the body. He was so thickly muscled, that none penetrated deep enough to reach any organs.

I heard the ESPN app allowed you to watch UK games. I downloaded it. We shall see. Will use the wc backup plan this go round. If I can watch it on my phone, I can cast it to my TV. (Already tried it.)
I can hope...

Big day for the Cats. We’ll know a lot more about them after tonight. I got a good feeling about it.
Heading into work. I hope it’s a good day for everyone.

I watched the final 9:17 of the 1998 Kentucky-Duke Elite Eight this morning on a BluRay copy I have. Never fails to excite.
Couldn't find the whole run on YouTube, but here's a taste to get psyched for tonight...

I have the whole thing. let me know if you need it or call Ritchie Curtis. He will be here Saturday and let me know if he over charges you.
Thanks Bert. I have a nice copy at home. One of my 3-4 favorite Kentucky games of all time. It was my daughter's first birthday and watched it with her. When the Cats got down 17 I threw my Kentucky hat across the room...SHE TODDLED OVER AND PICKED IT UP, AND BROUGHT IT BACK WITH A BIG SMILE...Somehow I knew the Cats were coming back at that moment. Pure magic.
Probably be a late game tonight. It wouldn't surprise me if the Cats win but it also wouldn't surprise if they lose by 20. Regardless of the outcome it'll definitely be a good learning experience. They need to be tested.
I am actually starting to get a little excitement and nervousness about me again. For the last few years, I had been complacent knowing how badly we had been playing and that with Calipari our chances were not good. I don't want to get too much hope going with this being a new coach and a totally new team, but if we shoot well tonight, it will be hard for them to beat us. Stopping them offensively will be the big test imo.
Wish I was a betting man. (Was a little back in the day.) I'd bet a "hunert" on the Cats....
The last time I bet was a dollar on the Ali - Liston fight. Bet on the Greatest to win.
Sorry I'm late with this, but HAPPY VETERANS DAY!!!! I HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT FOR YOU!!!! I hope y'all had a great day and a free meal somewhere, mine will be at Texas Roadhouse in the near future!
I believe that Hunter Dickerson will be the only person that will be able to say, I retired from college basketball!!!
