Exactly- compound the shivving, too. How these F’i morons are strutting around like it’s all all right now is beyond me. You can’t UNC it and pour $15M into lawyer bullshit when you’re on wire tap paying dudes while ON PROBATION.

And F Chris Mack. He’s a scum bag loser and I hope he loses every GD game.
Chris Mack listens to WEBN
 
* Woke up to the news that our beloved Cincinnati Reds are now a 1/2 game up on the Pirates for last place in the NL Central. :cool2:[banana]

Was beginning to worry my "WIRE TO WIRE" retro Homage tee would have to make an ironic comeback, only representing the opposite end of the win spectrum.

* Surprisingly, this has actually aged pretty well...

On New York, and playing for New York.

"I would retire first.
It's the most hectic, nerve-racking city. Imagine having to take
the [Number] 7 train to the ballpark, looking like you're
[riding through] Beirut next to some kid with purple hair next
to some queer with AIDS right next to some dude who just got out
of jail for the fourth time right next to some 20-year-old mom
with four kids. It's depressing."

"The biggest thing I don't like about
New York are the foreigners. I'm not a very big fan of
foreigners. You can walk an entire block in Times Square and not
hear anybody speaking English. Asians and Koreans and Vietnamese
and Indians and Russians and Spanish people and everything up
there. How the hell did they get in this country?"

* Heading to Leadville today -- record snowfall in Colorado.

* Guilty pleasure YouTube wormhole --> videos of people owning cops. The DUI checkpoint ones are the best. I've got my strategy down if that situation ever presents itself to me. Announce I'm filming, then just consistently repeat...

am i being detained? for what crime? so am i free to go?
am i being detained? for what crime? so am i free to go?
am i being detained? for what crime? so am i free to go?

I mean, there's a 99% chance I'd get my ass kicked and end up in jail, but I would be keeping it real AF.

* Tommy Fleetwood is my new Chad Campbell. I'm picking him every major until he wins one. So, put me down for the Englishman this weekend at Pebble Beach.

* Golden State wins tonight to push this one to Game 7, and set up a final in Toronto. We definitely need more Drake screentime, so let's make this happen.
 
The DUI checkpoint trials on YouTube are also pretty amazing. Everyone is their own attorney, defendants are angry because their request to question the police chief/mayor/governor/senator under oath has been denied, no one has any idea on what is allowed or required at one of these DUI checkpoints, the cops have terrible record keeping so the date is wrong on half the “evidence”, etc... Really an entertaining evening.
 
Appear confused.
Repeat that you're late for a wedding.
Drive away inebriated.
Profit??
GUYS ONCE AGAIN I NEED TO REMIND EVERYONE THIS IS NOT SOLID LEGAL ADVICE DONT DRINK AND DRIVE EVEN IF ITS A WEDDING SITUAISH PLEASE AND THANK YOU
 
A hatboggan for me is whenever journalists go into super journalist mode, so here is a job posting at CNN Business.

D85IlvNWwAA9dNE.jpg

A professional superhero could not make a job description out of what they do and make it sound this awesome. This isn't limited to CNN either.
 
Kenny Powers character being based off of an actual person seems far-fetched, until you hear John Rocker.

College version of me dated a Notre Dame girl for a few years and boy oh boy the WEBN fireworks were a must see for her crew. I had already learned to hate those events because of how awful Thunder over Louisville was... so the relationship was doomed to fail.

I would imagine those UL radio folks should really hope to get some additional scandal in the news... Pretty good guess that their ratings increase a ton when they get the other 75% of the city to tune in for the schadenfreude factor.

I couldnt handle being a hockey fan. The game just moves so quick and stays constant that my anxiety would be off the charts. I watched last night with no rooting interest and not even knowing much about the sport and was nervous. Baseball goes at a snails pace, football gets a break after every play, and with hoops we usually shut it down completely with a 6 point lead and 11 minutes to play.

Can we not shut down Santa Anita already?

Re: Horse Racing... first time ive seen a horse bite another horse. I dont hate this move at all.

 
- You trying to tell me journalists aren’t the now and the next? F you, Hess.

- Seems the stock of Washington and Herro is a bit up and Johnson’s has stabilized a bit. All three will go late lotto to Top 20.

- All I ask of my wife is to keep Labor Day through the first weekend of April free, and she has to get all pissy about this policy.

- Bravo Hierarchy:

1. Shep, Southern Charm
2. Tom Sandoval, Vanderpump Rules
3. Cam, Southern Charm
4. Andy Cohen
5. Glenn Pakulak

- Best Times for Babes to Wear Yoga Pants:

1. Kroger
2. Day drinking
3. Target
4. Coffee shop
5. Yoga

- More improved in 19/20- Terry Wilson or Ashton Hagans?

- Underrated Early 90s Country Songs:

1. John Deere Green
2. Two Dozen Roses
3. Queen of My Double Wide
4. Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind
5. Maybe It was Memphis
 
- Sammy Kershaw was dope af.

The most underrated 90s country dude? Mark Chesnutt. 23 Top 20 songs; the first one was in 1990 and the last one was in 1999.

- I know the sports talk radio game is awful in general, but if there's a worse show than Matthew & Mikey on 1300 I'd really hate to hear it.
 
-Speaking of DUIs it's wild how older people still just casually booze and drive. With the current Uber/Lyft situation I can't imagine drinking and driving. Take the consequences out, $8 to not have to deal with parking in a pay lot or deal with driving is enough for me. Dropped off at the door with ease. Recently got a little pissy with an old dude we occasionally drink with because he rolled home after hammering a half bottle of scotch. Not cool.

-US Open, 2nd best major and on West Coast delay is perfect. Leggo.

-I could get behind NHL but not sure what team to follow. Was all in on the Blues last night, because F*CK Boston.

-Chris Froome, the best GC guy in cycling, hit a wall at 65KPH. Broken femur, fractured hip, broken elbow, and several broken ribs. Ouchie.

-Just the tip with that dumbass is the worst thing I've ever heard. Dead air would be >>>>>>>>>>> better

Country Clubs have to be the drinking & driving capitals of the world. On any given night, I'd wager that 70% are driving out of there above the limit, and that may be conservative. Can count on one hand how many times I've seen someone take an Uber/Taxi home over the years.
 
Sir, You been drinking tonight?

I don't answer questions, and I'm late for a wedding

Your late night golf cart rides home snaps are :fire:.
 
- It sure would be something if we received more than 2 sunny days in a row. Touch this constant grey cloud overhang shit. November - March is one thing but it’s mid June.

- Booked a family trip to Hilton Head from July 6-13. Beachfront condo. The Lass, Lil Lass 1 and Lil Lass 2. Can’t friggin wait. First time taking a week trip with the kiddos. We’re used to doing a week beach vacation with just the Lass and I so this will be different. Lil Lass 1 is getting excited about seeing the ocean “where mermaids live”. It’s so rewarding seeing her reactions to certain experiences.

I’ve already dropped some reminders to the Lass that albeit this may be more of a trip than a vacation there will still be the need for some R&R with a cooler chalk full of domestos and non stop tunes on the beach. A buddy of mine down there is connecting us with a sitter so that will be nice to use for a night or two.

I need to see the water and sunshine. Peel and eat shrimp. Live music. Helps my spirit.

- The South Carolina game last September was the most electric pregame atmosphere at Commonwealth since the UL game in 07 when the team came out to DJ Khaled’s “We Takin’ Over”.

We flat out whipped S Carolina’s ass in the 1st half and the crowd definitely played a role. Reminded me of a big game Rupp experience where the crowd & team imposed their will on the opposing team. 24-3 at the half.

- It can be argued that when UK Football is where it is now or during Coach Brooks’ best years that being a UK Football fan is more enjoyable than being a UK Basketball fan. Something about being the feisty underdog that can be a giant pain in the ass to these “football schools” and holier than thou fans is so damn satisfying. Stoops’ kiss my ass personality fits this approach and I love it.

I’ve found myself getting too maniacal searching for a sense of relief with UK Basketball in March. Literally can’t sleep. Some of it has to do with the devastation in 2015 and some of it just is the monster that is Kentucky Basketball.

- One of the best troll moves ever was when Cal was coaching the Dominican team and booked the YUM Center that night in the Summer of 2011 for the exhibition vs the UK All Stars. Icing on the cake was when he had Denny Crum sit on the Dominican sideline as an honorary coach. What a giant touch you to Pitino and Jurich.
 
There’s an older dude who’s grandson plays sports with my kids that is hammered pretty much all the time. At a practice a few years ago he dropped his yeti and it spilled red wine everywhere.

With all star szn quickly approaching, it’s time for me to load up on chi chi’s pre mixed margaritas for my cup between games. League championship game tonight. Looking for a third straight year with one of my sons bringing home the gold. Please wish me luck on Instagram tonight.
 
I know we say it every year- but these men that charged on Normandy are just on another level of excellence. The video of the 97 year old paratrooper recreating his jump yesterday was incredible.

Long Euro-centric post, feel free to skip…

Spent 4 days last week in Normandy, including attending the US ceremony on the 6th at the American cemetery. Absolutely incredible. There were actually around 160 WWII veterans in attendance, including about 30 that participated in D-Day. They were treated like rock stars, rightfully so. Given the significance of the 75th anniversary and the reality that even the youngest WWII vets are in their 90s, guessing this is essentially the last “major” D-Day ceremony, though I think the 80th will happen on a smaller scale.

The logistics involved in such an event were fascinating, at least to me. Other than the N13, which is a four-lane highway that runs from Caen through Bayeux to Cherbourg, everything else is basically Old Frankfort Pike and Pisgah Pike, in the best of cases. On the 6th, there is a restricted zone of travel covering basically everything. Even within the zone, every major road is blocked for official travel only. Therefore, spent all day Wednesday and Friday morning visiting the actual D-Day sites (Omaha, Pointe Du Hoc, Utah, the American cemetery, Arromanches, Longues-sur-mer, etc.)

Also was surprised by the number of people that come as WWII reenactors. Had to be thousands of them, along with hundreds of WWII era vehicles (jeep, personnel carriers, motorcycles, etc.)

Spent a couple of days in Paris before driving to Normandy. I’ve been twice before, each time for around a week, though the last time was 9 years ago. Still one of my favorite cities, but def suffering from the strain of being such a popular destination.

Prior to France, I was in Ukraine for a week. *Former* spouse and I hosted two exchange students in 2015/2016, so I was visiting one of them for the first time since she left three years ago. Kiev is a pretty cool city, will def return. Took an overnight train to SE Ukraine for a few days as well to meet & spend time with her family. Was 30 miles from the front lines of the Russian/Ukraine war zone at one point, though other than the terrible road conditions (military convoys aren’t great for asphalt), you wouldn’t have known it.

Chernobyl has been on my radar for a few years, and I’m glad I took a daytrip from Kiev to experience it before it gets overran thanks to the HBO series. Walking through the streets and buildings at Pripyat (abandoned city) was surreal. I’ve always enjoyed learning about the Soviet/Cold War history, so this was worth the experience. That being said, it’s infuriating though not surprising that IG influencers that are now showing up to post pics from here.

Ukraine was the 51st unique country I've visited. Everyone's version of ideal travel is different, but the biggest challenge for me is finding the right balance of new experiences/destinations vs returning to places I love or have really enjoyed previously.
