I’m aware enough to realize the landscape of basketball is going back to needing older players with solid talent to lead a winner.

I get that and usually I would agree with that idea. However, what are the odds that they both would be here 4 years? Sheppard maybe. Plus it’s clearly obvious that Cal hates KY kids and doesn’t really like to play them less they become a real fan favorite.

I guess it would be cool to have another “Unforgettable” run with a couple of white KY kids that can supposedly shoot, though.

Crazy thing is how close we were to losing Ugo and Bradshaw this offseason as well.

Stella sells WAY more beer than I realize, I guess. Not sure I’ve ever even thought about ordering one ever in my entire life. Weird.

You're not missing anything.

• Beck's
• Heineken
• Stella

Stella was the Budweiser of Europe when I was at Pazzos. The Europeans even called it “Wife Beater Beer”.

AB-InBev seems to have bought the world’s beer empire.

-it's been a long time, but as far as inexpensive euro beer goes:

-also, Stella is the beast light of Belgium. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

 

[cut_itloosedoubledeuce]

I’ve been on a Busch light kick myself. $13.99 for a case.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Read the Modelo stuff back during the initial BL free fall, and had no idea it was far & away the #1 Mexican beer. Probably would have been my 3rd guess.

-Where tf do writers come up with a name like Wambsgans? Low key cracked me up all series with every mention.

 

[TCPUKChamps]

Fire him for cause right now. 7 scholarship players on June 1st is inherently harming the program. But hey, he wished Shaedon a Happy Birthday.

 

[Kennedy_UK]

I've been on a not-drinking-shitty-beer-kick for the last 15yrs or so. Basically since I started earning a W2 wage...

The only thing Cal is going to accomplish this off season is finding a way to drop out of the Globl Jam.

I know the beer convo is thick, but that was the point of the original post.

No one from last year is left, no one else is coming in with any real meaning.

I truly am starting to believe the hype that this will be Cal’s last season for the first time. All the FR will be gone and the roster will be literally empty after the season.

Chris Beard, plus Perry/Sheperd and some transfer guys. That I can get behind!

The answer to Succession's burning question might have been hidden in a 1920s Major League Baseball player's historic feat all along.

Can we stick to the topic here?

Would MUCH rather discuss beer brands than this horseshit team.

 

[bradyjames]

Cal is washed.

 

[roguemocha]

4.5% of minutes is the biggest concern. Have fun this year, Cal.

 

[BigBadBlueDaddy]

Remember going to Pazzo's once and a server told us that Stella Artois has a school where they teach bartenders the proper way to pour it and they receive a certification for it once they have successfully completed this. Interesting I thought as I ordered my Miller Lite.

 

[TCPUKChamps]

This is the equivalent of Mark Stoops using 44 of his available 85 scholarships…

Speaking of Euro beers…An ice cold, crisp Peroni hits the spot on a summer evening.

The dumbest thing ever, like a proper Guinness pour…you want a beer or do you want the hoopla toots?

 

[B.B.d.K.]

I learned last Euro trip I’m a Lager guy, if forced to drink real beer blind.

Also enjoy all of Chimay offerings.

 

[roguemocha]

So we got no one I’m guessing? Cool….

 

[B.B.d.K.]

<——- ready for life without Oscar. Wasn’t the recipe for modern team success with our current coach. He needs certain type (defensive, lob catchers) bigs. He made the correct call if he wants to develop & actually make it.

Reeves will probably be my most furious bounce to date, however. Much more telling as to the state of this program.

Livingston is too laughable to even comment on, and at least paves the way for Thiero. Still maddening, as he’s a perfect utility 2-4 year college guy.

Too bad our dipshit coach let these bums/handlers play him, yet again.

Bum Ass Program

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Also, Louisville has legit 25 breweries these days, and new ones popping up seemingly every few months. Pretty cool I suppose.

Not typically my scene, but seems many of the newer entires at least have a TV or two, dope patios/games, music, maybe a full bar, and a small kitchen or dedicated food truck. Seems like a no brainer to expand your customer base to have at least 1 of the Above.

I’ve just got nothing for a bland/awkward barebones taproom with literally nothing else going on, purposefully.

That’s Hipster Heaven, I suppose.

 

[ukalumni00]

Anyone know someone with FU money that can go ahead and buyout Cal so we can spare the program the inevitable and move on to someone who can competently lead the best college basketball program of all time back to its rightful place?

Yea, she just wasted it all on a foolish gubernatorial run.

 

[klambert6]

Local breweries with TVs, board games, etc have been my go to lately when riding solo with the kids. Loud enough where we don't bother anyone, and the kids stay entertained with the games.

Have one or two and get juuuust enough time taken up until mom gets home.

Typically, some decent scenery as well.

 

[legalbeagle123]

First ever 3 on 3 Blue-White Game?

 

[PTI (pti)]

Local breweries have been my jam for years, and I’m not even a beer snob. They’re mostly just really comfortable places to hang out, have a chill vibe, do a lot to connect with the neighborhood (run groups, yoga, bike night, etc), have some sort of food truck option, cool merch, and I’ve gotten to know the owners of most of them around my town. Very happy to support a real local business.

 

[PTI (pti)]

Honestly, F all 3 of these holdouts. Every single one of them desperately wanted to be anywhere else BUT in Lexington next season, and they dragged this drama out until the very end (ir)regardless. Totally F’d us in the portal.

Happy to see Oscar go, Livingston can eat a huge bag of dicks, and I’m trying my best not to hate Reeves right now.

Don’t disagree but we pay someone $10mm to put a roster together and for some reason he decided to put all his eggs in these 3 baskets when it was highly speculated none would come back.

F cal

Maybe Norman Dale is available to assist.

If you’re not a brewery with food/food truck, you’re gonna have a bad time.

If you’re a food truck that doesn’t get in a rotation at a brewery, you’re gonna have a bad time.

 

[august-west]

I use the Blackstone almost exclusively at this point but when I do break out the old trusty Weber Kettle I realize how much I still love it. I’d put my pork chops up against Patti’s any day of the week.

What I’m really trying to say, though, is that Cal can eat all of the dicks.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

If Reeves really goes to summer school just to transfer, that would be unbelievable lol.

Not even Vern could stay on board if that happened…

 

[cricket3]

Reeves taking extra classes to get out would be up there with Tyrone Nash and Shaedon Sharpe.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

I mean he clearly doesn’t want to be here. Enter the draft, “come back”, still weighing options.
