For National Novel Writing Month, I’m working on an erotic, NBA-based sex thriller called “Load Management.” I’m assuming there will be a bidding war among publishers. Will keep you posted.

-I quite like the trader Joe's peanut butter cups(little less sugary than reeses)...but they don't sell em gas stations and such.
^the "big cup" w/ reeses pieces is my FAT! go to.

-That's a big old false. You're absolutely right in most cases with sweets, organic is typically significantly worse, but Justin's side by side with Reece's isn't even fair. Reece's these day are a joke. Most look like they've been melted in the package, sides stuck to the wrapper, taste stale. I'll happily do a blind taste test next tailgate to prove you weirdos wrong.
-They're not going to move Madness, they spend a million-ish dollars on the production and it's a whole weekend of recruiting and homecoming. However, a preseason game with some of these smaller schools around the state would be cool. Hopefully they do more of this.
-Keeneland was showing out yesterday. Leaves popping.
-Finally, have some fishing coming up in the next few weeks. LFG.
-I love a good MattCats' nostalgic posts.
-I hate that Anthony Davis's career is likely going to be defined by his Lakers years. I guess it's deserved at this point, but we're talking about a guy that had as motor and will to win that matched his elite talent. He's a product of his peers and with MKG he was a f*cking animal. Now with Lebron, he's a f*cking diva.

Let's not overthink Keaton's finest role. It's Beetlejuice.
His voice over work as Ken in Toy Story 3 and 4 is fantastic as well, seeing as how my kids have made me watch those movies 23 times in the last week. The man can do it all!
Davis won a title with Lebron. A lot of people forget that. His ultimate problem is that he’s brittle and injury-prone.
And I’ll tell you whose stock/perception has taken an absolute nosedive - Russell Westbrook. I told my kid Russ is a probable HOFer and he looked at me like I had a dick sticking out of my forehead. To a generation of teens and children, he’s “Russell Westbrick” - a walking shitshooting meme.

Keaton in Mr Mom- Honey, if you need me, I'll be at the gym or the gun club
Reese's cups are hit or miss, gotta be sure to get them from a place that moves a lot of that product, sit too long become caked instead of creamy inside.
Any good horse racing sites to learn handicapping? Youtube tutorials?
Bye week came at perfect time to get yard in order, oil changed and liquor restocked.

Actually feel sorry for Westbrook at this point. He's the complete laughing stock of the league, even by his own fanbase.
0-11 last night, 2 points? At his peak, he was one of the best, or at least most gifted, to ever do it. I mean, good lord.

^ that's an absolutely ridiculous take.
9X All star
9X All NBA
2x Scoring Champ
3x Assist Champ
MVP
The list of guys who can equal that isn't very long.

Absurd. Look at his career numbers and awards. He averaged a triple-double three years in a row, 9 times All-NBA, etc. He’s a no-brainer first ballot player.
Russell Westbrook wasn't very good, he just put up massive amounts of points, rebounds, assists, steals, and All Star games.
Indeed. Possibly the greatest example ever of a guy who put up unbelievable stats and never won dick.
There are dozens of guys in the HOF you could say the same thing about - Charles Barkley, Karl Malone, Patrick Ewing, etc.
Eh, Hank's hopelessly in the dig in on my horrendous take stage.
A GYERO tradition of course, we've all certainly been there -- but his take is pretty elite in that genre.

I'm not arguing that Westbrook won't be in the Hall of Fame. Statistically, he is more than qualified. My issue is the cheapening of the status of the Hall of Fame.
Westbrook (and James Harden, too) never won anything of any worth, are miserable to watch, and the addition of them to a team is almost a guarantee that the team won't win a title. That, to me, is not a recipe for a Hall of Famer. Barkley, Malone, and Ewing never actually guaranteed that their team had no chance of taking home the Larry O'Brien Trophy. Those guys had the misfortune of going up against Jordan in his prime, too. (Spare me any comparisons between Jordan and Lebron).

Westbrook and Harden are perfect examples of guys who are products of the offensive friendly era
-Lot of folks sleep on Michael Keaton's cult classic "The Dream Team."
I enjoyed Birdman, too.
-My baby' girls name is Keaton fwiw.
-Selfishly, I absolutely hate bye weeks.
-You want to talk about a world class musician whose life was cut too damn short, talk to me about Mr. Otis MF Redding. What a voice.
"I've Been Loving You Too Long"
"Cigarettes and Coffee"
"Love Man"
-Off to Springfield, KY here in a bit for business. Never been. Nice little project there, though.
-Foliage is obviously stunted by the drought, but I'm also missing the verdant green cool grasses throw off this time of year. No rain sucks.
-Kevin Willard at Maryland is intriguing. Would be much more so if they were still in the ACC. I'll never get over that. Loved the terps hating on UNC and Duke.
-Richie was incensed over Cal's untucked shirt with sports coat look at yesterday's Tip Off Luncheon. I mean, objectively speaking that's a trash look. Grief, man.
-Bama/Miss State is such an intriguing matchup to watch if you're a Kentucky Wildcats fan given next week's UT game looming. I like State to cover the gaudy 21 point line.
Bama's struggled with Texas, aTm, and lost to UT. A tight one with State will give me an irrational amount of confidence going into next Saturday tbh.
-I just feel like Levis has a magic moment in blue before he's done in Lexington. Too special not to.

NBA players today > NBA players of our childhood. Enjoy.
You can knock Russell Westbrook for a lot but to say he is just a stat stuffer or a product of lack of defense in this era is dumb.
2010-2015 OKC mostly made conference finals or the finals every year. Russ/KD we’re thought to be taking over the league as young stars, but youth, injuries etc derailed a few solid attempts at a championship.
When KD left they were both finally in the prime and OKC not getting anything back in return because KD was a FA really hurt their franchise and Russ’s chances at anything real.
To knock him for all of the timing of situations is wild. Excluding that he led Washington to the playoffs and to get there he needed a 19 game win streak and several of those games were without Beal is just silly……..when saying he hasn’t accomplished anything (other than stats) worthy of being a true HOF player.

-Otis Redding is the greatest soul singer of all time...no one is close. Period. Music lovers: If you haven't heard the Steve Cropper interviews on NPR about OR, you need to look into. Riveting.
^have all of his studio albums on vinyl.

Got into Otis virtually by buying the Stax compilation. Wrote a lot of his own stuff, including Respect, which I respect.
- Love Otis, but going with Marvin.
- How is Tyger Campbell only a junior? Getting into Perry Ellis territory. So he has two years left after this year...Senior year and Covid year. Bonkers.
- 18 days left until Election Day. Shew, this one has been a doozy. Toughest project I've ever had for a variety of reasons, but also doing the best work I've ever done. We'll see if it pays off.
- Had no idea Michael Keaton started his career as a stand up comic until I watched a documentary on The Comedy Store (great doc).
- Been on a college football gamble hot streak, first few days of the NBA have been awful though

Sam Cooke and MARVIN Gay are pretty dope too.
Solostove Rye & Bye weekend…. Blue skies and high 40s. High proof Rye.
Looking forward to Army football game tomorrow at West Point. Fall colors🍁🍂in USNY.
Took my team to a lunch in K-Town yesterday. I was the only non-Asian in restaurant… probably the block. Korean food has launched itself as my new cold-weather comfort food. I pretty much think the only reason NYC is decent are the restaurant choices which is elite. Everything else is overrated or shitty.
All my Keeneland swag hanging in my bar… complete. Looks DAF.

Worship K-Town. Ended up at some 2nd floor cool/clubby space last trip, had an incredible (and adventurous) meal. That street is like being transported to another country right in the heart of Manhattan.
You were probably at Wonjo.
we ate at BCD Tofu House… was awesome. Highly recommend.
Michelin Star, Cote is Korean food with Aged Prime Meat… been twice and need to return.

Peak Westbrook was anything but horrible to watch. Guy was the most athletic, exciting player in the league putting up triple doubles every night. Comparing him to Harden is almost worse than the HOF take.
Bye week sucks.
Will probably watch the BW game just to see how pumped Pikeville is. Crowd might inject some excitement into it.
DJ Shaq Diesel performing in BG tonight before the WKU game. Weird as hell.
Loved Sumrall as a meathead LB coach, but wasn't sure if he had HC chops. It appear he do.
I can admit that I was way off on my preseason UT take. Thought the gimmicky offense had run its course. No one has even come close to slowing it down. I trust Brad White to do as well as any. Not sure I trust Scangarello to match the output.

-Cooke and Gaye...are in the convo for 2nd for sure. Don't sleep on Bill Withers.
^Redding's raw power/emotion sets him apart from anyone in any genre, imo. Dude was just made different.

In fairness to your ridiculous take, the one year RW made the finals w/ KD and JH, they ran into a better set of triplets that the Heat had.
And then during his glory years w/ OKC, there was born a team out west that has dominated the last 7-8 years. So to say he never won anything.....well, a helluva lot of others didn't either. You can say this for a slew of greats in every sport.
Try a Little Tenderness and These Arms of Mine definitely prove your point.
-Smooth is how I would define it if I had to. Which is good.
Brooks said it earlier...Redding's voice makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck. Truly Special.
^like the star spangled banner, the bagpipes and Dr Ralph Stanley's haunting tenor.
-Sam Cooke Pandora is a solid dinner playlist. Same with BB King & Eric Clapton.
-Richie wore horse bits on a guided bass fishing trip. He needs to ease up on the critiques for a bit.
-If I were the type to walk by a friends tailgate, without even a gratuitous wave, then I'd hate the bye week. But I'm not... and I worship a bye week. Don't have a house full of hooligans. No stress. Well deserved by the reals.
-Have a quick NYC trip in the spring for a wedding. Try to plan my foodie attack. Going to be a long expensive ride back to Long Island that night. Bleh.
-Always thought Willard was the right choice to navigate UL through all this bullshit. Glad they passed.

Marvin, Sam, and Otis are all wonderful. No need for splitting hairs.
Obviously not in the same stratosphere but I enjoy David Ruffin. Of course with the Temps, but his solo stuff is solid. "My Whole World Ended" is a favorite.
We just don't get those voices anymore, and it makes me sad.
Wilson Pickett is buried over at Evergreen here in Louisville. My Dad went to his 3+ hour funeral but bowed out around hour 2 following the 3rd or 4th fainting in the crowd. Wish I had footage of his honky ass in there tbh.
