We sure are getting our moneys worth for what we pay. Anyone should be happy to write the United States government a check for more money. Also apply that to the highly decorated and proven Kentucky government.

Naturally just like everyone fights taxes.
But in this instance you have 11M barrels in this state aging. However you have every distillery adding millions if not billions to increase production(for example I think when Buffalo Trace finishes expansion they will be able to produce 65,000 barrels a week). It’s thought that production in the state will triple, so the way taxes hit now this currently generates 350,000 for small town Lebanon Junction and if this tax goes away they have stated they will lose their fire dept.
Ok fine, but if the tax triples do to production tripling it’s now a 1M line item so what comes from that?
Also, if small town Lebanon Junction can’t afford a fire dept how is a fire dept around MGP who doesn’t pay a barrel tax afforded?
The argument could go on and on so trying to convince you otherwise or make you see the light is pointless.
But the fear mongering that is being used to make people think communities will lose fire dept or OMG these roads won’t be fixed anymore is manipulation of voters at the least.
Beshear will veto this regardless and then the negotiation will continue!
GYERO talking taxes, Bengals shitting the bed in NFL FA, cold as your mom’s pillow outside…. John Calipari better pulls some magic out of his dog stroller.
I woke up this morning in a literal panic about the Lebanon Junction Fire Department.
This should make everyone feel better. Turns out, our offensive philosophy makes even less sense than you thought!

Kentucky's love for midrange shots is costing them
The Wildcats make it a point to take midrange shots, but the data says it's not productive

Counterpoint: UKO.
Midrange pull ups, winter like weather and the inevitable redass that’s coming whenever the Cats get bounced highlighting the 3rd underachieving year in a row.
All we need now is for MilqueToast to announce that someone was way over served at the UK vs IU baseball game last night and cold beer will not be served to the general public at any UK athletic events for the foreseeable future.
So sick of this. Can’t get nothin’.

-occasional midrange pull ups off drives are fine if that's what the defense gives you.
^tailoring an offense to get midrange shots is another thing all together. A shitty depressing thing.

This was the most shocking fact to me: “In the last 5 years and 7 of the last 9, Kentucky has ranked 220th or lower in frequency of shots at the rim.” Surely to goodness that can’t be right, but it would explain a lot.
You know what effing rules? Dunks. Crams. Dropping nuts. Posterizing. Tomahawks. Drop step two handed yams on a guy.
You know what sucks? “all kids do now is try to get on SportsCenter what happened to a good old fashioned jump shot pass the Werthers you know I actually prefer the WNBA for the fundamentals”

Think I saw where we take something like a 1/3 of our shots from each level (rim, midrange, 3), where a modern efficient offense is more like 45/10/45.
Cal likes to "take what the defense gives us". Well, no shit they're going to give you midrange. It's a garbage shot. Excellent coaching, playing RIGHT into our opponent's game plan...
"We don't need to worry about anyone else...we just need to be the best version of ourselves" - coach who's too lazy to actually scout and implement opponent-specific game plans.
Doesn't surprise me at all, we have a coach that gives zero thought to spacing and plays players out of position making it difficult to beat their man off the bounce.

And it is essentially Oscar's unreal offensive rebounding that creates what efficiency we do have.This should make everyone feel better. Turns out, our offensive philosophy makes even less sense than you thought!

That should be pretty easy to recreate next year.
I feel like if it was 2014 we would have had Wallace and Reeves throwing lobs to Collins and Toppin a lot. Those 4 are perfect for it and it used to be a huge part of our offense. No idea why that’s gone.
This times 1000.
While the bourbon industry, much like Kentucky's equine industry have been over taxed for years, I've always maintained that additional taxes should be levied on Sports Bars.
People drink too much at them, then get in auto accidents that require community resources like police, ambulances, and firefighters, why shouldn't they pay more of their fair share? If it weren't for sports bars and the hell they create by over serving people, we would be able to reduce our tax rate by not needing so many first responders.
Furthermore, with the amount of cash that flows through sports bars, the IRS should put them through annual IRS audits to ensure ownership isn't stealing tax revenue from "the people" and all money is going to where it should be going, TAXES.
Furthermore, I always felt like radio stations and radio personalities should be taxed more.
No real reason, other than I just think they should. 😎
Also book publishers and especially book authors should be taxed more. Like ALOT more. DO you have any idea what authors and their books are doing to our national tree canopy? Killing trees for books that raises our overall climate temperature, and creating global warming. Now those are the folks who should be paying alot more taxes. They simply are destroying the future of our Earth and making it unhealthy for our children! Tax the $hit out of em.
-I'd put GYERO wives against any collective group of message board wives. There is not a finer collection of absolute ladies who just so happen to be smokeshows.
With that said......... Boobies. That ain't a bad thang. AT&T chick can do a commercial with me any day of the week.

One big ding on the Czech Republic, 99% of the time when asking for a bourbon list, the only options are Jim Beam, and like 6 different types of Jack Daniels which is listed under bourbons.
I saw Makers and Woodford once. Every liquor store, every restaurant, Jim Beam & Jack Daniels. That's it.
Do better Czech Republic. Do better.

Czech beer --> every bar/restaurant seems to have their own house pilsner. Barman pours one up, then uses a little scraper to wipe the overflow suds away. Serves it with a perfectly foamy head.
Best gd beer I've ever had in my life over there. Prague is amazing.

Right now there’s a poster on a Czech soccer team message board bitching about how they went to Kentucky and those dummies only had Urquell available as a Czech pilsner.
The wives of the Czech GYERO have to be an elite collection on bombshells.
Beleedat.
Beleedat.
Agreed. And while not only freaking amazing, it seemed no matter how much I drank, I never did get a hangover.
While the Pilsner Urquell seemed to be on tap everywhere and is pretty damn good, I fell in love with the Staropramen. Just incredible beer, and to your point the perfect foamy head (That's what she said) in every pour.

It just surprised me that we have been THAT bad. I mean, when Cal got here that was the entire focus of our offense!
Update on crazy neighbor no one asked for:
Last week I'm sitting upstairs and notice it's foggy outside. Nope. Just the neighbor burning leaves in the backyard. He had about a dozen different piles around his trees and near the house. I and several others called it in and about 20 mins later, the fire chief was dressing him down and making him put the fires out.
On Sat, the wife calls my wife to ask if we have a generator. He had the power shut off. I'm mowing the lawn and the tech comes out and shuts off the water. Next day the gas guy shut off the gas. We drop them a electrical cord.
Yesterday the wife shows back up and asks my wife to help her with something. Wife said he had created barricades in the house. Turns out one of the cop visits was them having to draw weapons to remove him from the house. Now he's got an injunction on him that he can't be within 500'.
She also finds out he wasn't just burning leaves, he was trying to burn his house down to collect insurance on it. He had placed several 5 gallons gas can around the house. Now I'm getting livid because the nutjob would have likely burned our house down and the one on the other side since we're so close to each other.
So the guy has lost his job, wife filed for divorce, 2 kids won't talk to him, declared himself indigent and is really bad at arson (thankfully). Welcome to Florida Man, man.

I don't understand the problem with Dancing Guy. What could go wrong with a mentally handicapped adult running children down concrete steps as he dances to the music?
She's about 3 bills and has no neck. Directed her to the Ozempic thread.
As far as the Sports gaming bill. It has a real shot but it's going to be close. It's a short session year, so it requires 60% of votes instead of the regular simple majority.
Hopefully it passes, but if not it will definitely pass next session.

I'd tell the Bourbon Industry we're going to double their taxes and if they threaten to leave again we'll burn their racks down and piss on the ashes. Gotta play offense with these slapdicks.
Oh, and Fred Minnick is a fat douche bag. Oh, you're good at tasting Bourbon and dressing like an asshole? That's not a job. Can you imagine caring what this guy thinks?

I like bourbon but don’t wear ascots.
Minnick lives two blocks away from me. He dresses like that for strolls around the neighborhood.
