I do that with every game. I sometimes turn it off when struggling just to turn it back on later because I feel like they do better when I am not watching. Superstitious? No, but it just makes me feel better.

I'm a lot that way too...In my case I'll accept it is superstition. I don't have any superstitious behavior in any other part of my life, but I do with Kentucky basketball.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 52°F and clear with an 8 MPH wind. Today's high expected around 82°F.
Wishing y'all a great day.

Good morning folks.
Beautiful clear, cool morning in the east. Admiring the stars and listening to a Barred Owl as I finish my walk, then heading for the subway station.
I hope you all are enjoying the morning.

Warrior-cat, found out that my cousin lives in Elgin

Happy Hump Day, y'all.

Good morning all, in the parking garage readying to walk to the train. Have a great and joyous day!
Yeah, we have probably run into each other either from my old job or restaurants/stores in Elgin. Tell him I live on Watts Rd. east of Tony Creek Rd.
Does he still work at Ft. Sill?
Bet you can't guess what I am going to do today.
Good morning folks.
Another cool clear beautiful morning in the east. I was out about 5am and the moon was spectacular, huge and bright with a subtle hint of a rose color…I know tomorrow is the “Blood Worm Moon” lunar eclipse. But it was full and blazing today.
On the subway now. Last work day of the week. My wife and I are off for a brief visit to Savannah tomorrow.
Have a good day.

Safe travels. Enjoy. I have not visited Savannah in many years.
Sherry and I spent our 30th wedding anniversary in Savannah. I love the horse drawn tours.
My nephew is a junior at SCAD, Savannah College of Arts and Design. Loves it there. The college has no campus, just a bunch of buildings spread around. The owner/president is one of the largest landowners in town.
Fishing report: 1 strike, no hooks, so no errors as there was not much action today. Still a little chilly this morning with the wind being higher than predicted. I spent about 3 hours at 2 ponds. Ran into 2 other guys out there fishing and only one of them caught anything and it was a bass at around 1 pound. Will try again soon in the next few days.
My Darling wanted to go to the Navy Recreation center in Maryland Saturday to try some fishing and crabbing but we forgot our daughter needed us to do something for her... I have my gear ready. We shall see... Just a little cool to take the BB. Plus My Darling has eye surgery later this month so may not be a good idea all the way around...
Good morning from ATX. Currently 60°F and clear. Fire risk still in effect.
Walked 2 miles yesterday. Stopped at an Afghan restaurant for take out. Decent food. Tea was great.
Cats vs Sooners in the late game at 9:30 ET. Go Cats!

Getting on the road to Savannah. About an eight hour drive I think. Should be a fun long weekend.
I’d love to see the Cats play well tonight and set up a memorable March.
Have a great day and Go Big Blue!

A victory tonight and it will be the longest SEC win streak of the year for the Cats. 3 games. Speaks volumes for how tough the league is. The Cats are 2-5 in the past 5 SEC tournaments and haven't won more than 1 game since the 2017-2018 tournament. It's been too long for the fans. Maybe this is the year.
9:30 games kind of sucks.

Oklahoma gave us all we wanted in the regular season, but tonight's game is in Nashville. I hope the Cats can pull a couple good games together. I would love to win tonight and get a chance at Alabama. I think UK got screwed royally in Tuscaloosa.
I predict tonight's game starts around 10:15.
I see that you are an optimist!
Go Big Blue!! The games need to start earlier.
I'll be up regardless of the time. Gonna be late. Pray there's no OT.
Go CATS!!!!
Give'em the John Wayne treatment.....

Legendary win, for sure. Wow. Just wow.
Love our Cats!

Good morning from ATX. Currently 67°F and cloudy. Expect 88°F for our high. Red Flag (High Fire Risk) still in effect.
How 'bout them Cats last night? Wow, Oweh = amazing.
Happy Friday, y'all.

Darn darn darn in my best Herman Munster voice. Been working so stupid I was asleep to get up at 2. Back to sleep to get up at 4:30. On the VRE heading to DC now.... Wanted to watch so badly.....
In my best Rooster Cogburn voice......"Well....."
Go CATS... Will sure try watching that replay.
Have a fine day all...
UK UK UK.....
Good morning folks.
Missed the game. On vacation in Savannah and we’re staying at an old manor that is beautiful but doesn’t have network TV.
Sounds like I missed a classic.
We had a nice day in this lovely town yesterday. Looking forward to seeing more today.
A chance to get double revenge on Alabama tonight. Go Cats. .

Wore out this morning from that game. Need a beer.
About last night:
Whatever happens the rest of the way, I'm always going to love Pope's first team.
Beat Duke, Gonzaga, Louisville, swept Tenn, two games with late Oweh shots to take down Oklahoma...the first SEC game/win was a shoot-out classic with Florida.
You see character from many of these guys, without the injuries we got 2 or 3 more wins right now.
I think something special is brewing in the basketball program.

I see John Feinstein, the Kentucky-hating sports writer died.
Is it too soon to tell a story about him that makes me look like a jerk? I guess I'll do it anyway.
As some of you know, Feinstein graduated from Duke in 1978, and it was the Cats beating his beloved Blue Devils that year in the championship that made him a lifetime hater and critic of UK...
Fast forward to 1998. He had just written a fawning book about ACC basketball. I was working in DC at the Scripps Howard news bureau, where we put out a wire service that reached 800 newspapers across America. Feinstein was working at the Washington Post, which had offices just a couple blocks away.
In late March of that year, about a week after the legendary Kentucky comeback to beat Duke in the Elite Eight, Feinstein came up to our offices to promote his book with our sports editor. I spotted him, and so I lurked around until I saw him heading for the elevator of our 11th floor office.
I walked up to him and said, "Aren't you John Feinstein? I'm a big college hoops fans and know your work (know, not like...)" He seemed flattered and we both got on the elevator...I had him trapped...
So I said, "Hey, let me ask you: What happened to Duke in that tournament game with Kentucky last week? How do you blow a 17-point lead with nine minutes to go?" I swear his face got white and mumbled something about, "just bad luck.." But I kept it up: "Did Coach K just choke? He looked like he was pissing his pants on the bench...Man, he was totally outclassed by that Kentucky coach, what is his name again? He's new, right?"
It was the longest elevator ride of Feinstein's life. When we got to the lobby he didn't even pretend he wasn't pissed. He just made a beeline for the door...No wonder he hated Kentucky. We can be an ornery bunch...

Great game last night!!! I wonder if Cow has told Arkansas fans that last night doesn't matter? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
He ghost wrote a book for Bob Knight. He told lies about Kenny Walker being paid to go to UK. I helped Joe B. recruit Kenny and was there in all the conversations. No money and no promises. John Feinstein in my book is a worthless lying sob.
