So, what's the worst thing that ever happened to you? Please be detailed in your explanation to the point you feel you're reliving the experience and contemplating whether or not to drink bleach.
 
And whatever you do, don't think about the fact that had the favored team won every NCAA Tournament game Kentucky has played since Cal got here, he would have 3 national titles (10, 12, 15) and Duke would have 0. In other words, the lead would be 10-3 instead of 8-5.

We'd also be in the Final Four this year.

Was even more fantastic seeing that game in person. Could really tell those kids laid it all on the line and they all shook hands after the game.
 
-I really like Chris Mack, just a guy's guy & great coach. Like SAE, now I just wait until he gives me a reason to hate him, which I suspect will happen sooner than later.

-Reds opening day being a flood makes me happy, first time I've felt that emotion in a week. Welcome back.

-Keldon Johnson is a DUDE, as Dougie would say. He's definitely got some Gillie in him, but with more polish. Love a guy where you at least know what you're going to get from an effort standpoint every game -- we haven't necessarily had a lot of those lately.

Can’t wait for MY Cubs to open play today. Could’ve gone up to Miami to watch but then I’d be in Miami so there’s that.

Yeah - makes more sense for you to stay in KW and root for a high school baseball team.

I live in Broward Co. and will be in Miami today to cheer on the AAA-level Marlins.

The Cubs...who are one of the best teams in baseball...and YOUR team...are playing the closest to your home as they will be all season...on Opening Day no less...in 80 degrees and AC...and you're sitting this one out?

Btw in Chicago its 44 and rainy. And grey.

Has anyone seen the sun?
 
Hey Willy did you cheap assholes go ahead and move the promotional Tundra over to Newport this season just to be safe?

I don't even know what this means?

The Reds Tundra that will be given away at some point this season if a Red hits the a HR that hits the sign in RC field will remain in Great American Ball Park all season. If the sign isn't hit, it will be given away to a charitable organization, local fire dept or police dept.

The Reds Tundra that will be given away to a lucky fan after the 1st inning on Friday is currently parked up the street at the Toyota Cincinnati Region Office and will be driven down to GABP today.

If you are talking about FC Cincinnati's pending stadium, Toyota will no longer be the jersey sponsor of them after this season. We have zero say in where they decide to build their stadium. I am pulling for Newport because I think it is the best spot. Right on the riverfront next to Newport on the Levee and directly across the mighty Ohio River from Great American Ball Park and Paul Brown Stadium.

Whatever you were referring to, I'd much rather you put that pompous, pretentious asshole Anth in his place some more instead. TIA

Again, it’s in MIAMI. One of the worst places in America to willingly go visit, IMO. Was in South Beach a week ago and it took 4.5 hours to drive 160 miles back o KW and this is Easter weekend so the traffic coming into the Keys will be brutal. So yes, I’ll skip it and go see them in Chicago in June.

And yes Dore, I’ll be at Rex Weech Field Friday night to watch the boys play against those bastards from Gulliver Prep and I can guarantee the tension will be palpable.
 
Red Lobster is trying to kill people: a waffle made of their cult-beloved Cheddar Bay biscuit mix, topped with a massive fried lobster tail, all drizzled in maple syrup

Traffic in Miami is awful, especially if you're going south to KW on a two-lane road. But, I like the city of Miami itself (I've worked downtown for 15 years), and Marlins Park is really nice.

So, chicken and waffles made with lobster instead of chicken? I'd give it a shot if Chase wasn't kicking so much ass in the weight loss challenge. I don't think I've ever had fried lobster, though.

But, speaking of chicken and waffles... to those of you in the northern reaches of the Commonwealth, I highly recommend Purple Poulet in Dayton, KY. It is a "Southern Bourbon Bistro" located in what was an old family grocery/butcher shop when I was growing up.

When my nephew, the almost famous DJ from Utah named ATL, was in town a few weeks ago I took him there. He got the fried chicken and waffles. Holy shit. Half a chicken on a sweet potato/bacon/cornbread waffle with pecan butter and bourbon maple syrup.

The place is fantastic and I highly recommend.
 
Don’t play mind games with me Willy. You’ve lost 15 pounds and everyone else has been radio silent. I expect SGNI or Padre to pop in here anytime and say they’ve lost 20-30 pounds so far.
 
Fried lobster is very good.

Big thanks to Bryant HVAC. I tried to be loyal to a guy that buys material from me but after 2 summers in a row of the same A/C and looking to be a third Bryant got the call and wanted to be there today. Which is already better service.

Opening day:pimp:

After this weekend if I owe you cash money by all means get at me. Otherwise I will be sending out some harassing emails.

I watched “Splitting up together” with the wife last night as she requested. Fantastic concept for a sitcom, but I feel as if there is something I don’t get here.

In case you were watching the burger boys, or the NCAA tournament, or just about anything else then ESPN would apparently like to update you on the NFL rules changes and ALL the offseason happenings.
 
-Most likely tan khakis, blue jacket, white or blue base shirt and blue, green or pink tie, and my brown derbys. Ding. May do royal blue slacks and tan linen sports coat for Oaks. IMO, the day you can push the boundaries a little more. Contrary to what @sae thinks, have fun at Oaks/Derby, wear what you want other than shorts and a sports coat. Don't have to look like every other tight sphincter in a navy or gray suit and stripe tie.

-All out effort team -> Gabriel, Alexander, Ulis, Hawkins, Gillie, Liggins(senior year), Davis

-Pope certainly hasn't. Snap of him eating "healthy sushi" 2 days ago and an invite to Bourbon & Toulouse yesterday.

-Welp, don't talk about this stuff much but our house is officially on the market if anyone is interested in a swell home within a lob wedge of campus. Excellent school district. @ me if you know anyone looking in the area.

-KK, you're welcome to settle up with me or just let it ride.

My rando for the month: That Garry Shandling documentary on HBO was excellent. Lots of good behind-the-scenes stuff, tons of celeb interviews, etc.. Apatow directed. I never knew how 'connected' he was with the other titans of comedy and how important a role he played in their lives. Left with much more appreciation for the guy and what he meant to the business.

From what I understand, there are some pretty cool neighbors a few doors down, too.

I’ll second the rec for Purple Poulet and am glad to read Willy’s review- mostly to confirm it was still open since the location isn’t the best.









(If you’ll notice what I did there was agree with a recommendation for a trendy hole in the wall foodie joint while at the same time subtly point out I had been there before Willy. #SmugLife)

Restaurants are popping up like pimples on picture day along the Avenue in Dayton. PP is packed every night it is open.

Trotta gets good reviews, Hometown Heroes has good bar food and a new BBQ joint just opened up in the old Froggy's Pub location.

Dayton, we're not just heroin and weed anymore.

But serious work has begun on the 3 new rooftop bars in my new hometown of Loveland. #Smug2

I mean, no wonder Jarren Williams bolted for Miami. Shew

If some smokeshows from UK wanna use my boat to shoot a video, I'd consider it. Good for the program, IMO.

Fried lobster is good. Lobster corndog is also excellent.

You're doing fantastic, man. Your 14 is better than my 15. I think we would be an even % if I lost 15 and you lost 12.9. I am curious to see how my weigh in goes tomorrow. My diet has been on point, but I've been sick for over a week and haven't worked out. Plus lying in bed all weekend didn't burn as many calories as usual.

I'm worried about SandBaggingInIndy and SneakyPadre, too. I don't like those a-holes not logging in.

Pope will be getting started soon and is BBdK really in it? He would be one to watch.
