Heard it was a Jones Fracture. If so, I've had one. That's about 8 weeks minimum with most of that being on a scooter or in a boot. Not something that's easy to bounce back from.

59. And I know that probably gave off bit of a “get off my lawn” vibe. But this is Gyero and a simple “not a big fan of lol” just will not do.
Time for Travis Perry’s 1980s deadbeat stepdad-lookin’ ass to step up.
Or 80s karate movie villain Colin Chandler. One of the two.
Welp, Butler is going to have to back off a touch on the gambling on defense. We need him as many minutes as he can possibly play every single night.
Need at least 5-10 serviceable minutes out of Perry, and Robinson to needs to avoid foul trouble as well.

I really hope that we have found a new “institution” for Kentucky. Since Rupp and I guess Joe B, UK has felt like a place that flashy coaches come to for 6-8 years then leave high or burn out. Guess Tubby wasn’t really flashy. This is the first time I’ve felt that a coach might be here until retirement and earn it.
I was always scared Pitino would go to the NBA and it happened. Worried about that with JCP for the first 6 years. Then hoped for it once it became clear that a shitty Wisconsin team could break him mentally. Tubby? I knew he was gonna wear out. Pope seems just crazy enough to pull it off.

Good to see Dave Parker get elected to the HoF. Young me was a big fan of his when he was with the Reds in the 80s.
I think Perry can handle what will be asked of him. Kid is a player and very level headed, plus he is a country strong fella so with his inexperience on this level he won’t get burned like Kerr, but I’d suspect he’ll be susceptible to foul trouble and some turnovers.
I wouldn’t rush Butler back but that because I see how important that SEC schedule will be and I’d rather him be 100%

It’s fun giving a shit about college basketball again.
Perry won’t be doing shit this year he’s not ready, he’ll get some spot minutes but I’ll suspect we’ll see Robinson slide into the PG role like last night in the big moments.
This. The Kentucky offense runs at an entirely separate level when Butler is in, which would more than offset him chilling out a little on defense.
What time did the UK game end last night? I feel like we had a Kentucky Double today but I’m not qualified to announce it.
After watching Jax at point last night, I feel just fine. I also liked that Brea snagged 7 boards despite struggling from 3. It was also good to see Garrison get 9 rebounds when Amari only had 3, but the two combined for 22 points. And I love that Carr tapped the ball away from Stromer after missing both foul shots. This team seems to have a knack for righting their wrongs and stepping up for teammates who are out or struggling.
Speaking of which, damn shame about Kerr. He had 8/3/4 before exiting including two from deep. That's pretty much what we would like to get from him.

-Kerr was better on O but is just a liability on D. Seems as if his biggest influence isn't even necessarily on the court.
-Jax, though. There's the dude, he just needed the ball in his hands. That's a huge relief in both having a guy to go get a shot and when Butler gets in foul trouble.
-It was late and I'd poured a couple too many brown waters. Need to go back an re-watch the 2nd half.
-I don't care for the Gregg guy. That 2nd G really annoyed the piss out of me. Two first name, bitch.
-Jon staying put at Tulane. 😀
-I wasn't pulling for the Panthers yesterday, because that is bad gambol karma, but I was watching intently. Old boy that dropped 3.1M on Eagles money line had to be sweating.
-Pretty much done with Xmas list but starting tomorrow won't be much down time. All over the place until the week after Xmas.

Bengals game tonight being broadcast as a Simpsons episode. This is my moment.
Monday Randoms:
My son got into the UK College of P.harmacy… which is nice. I got 4 more years of Lexington tangibility in the future. Look forward to more football games (kinda).
Sumrall staying put at Tulane is the Howard Schnellenberger moment that UKFB history needs to NOT repeat. This is a poker tell, smoke signal, warning flare and life saver that will be needed after the impending 2025 disaster we are about to watch.
Football is a culture sport. Who knew? FA & NIL killed so many teams in both NFL & college. Dan Campbell of the Lions laid the blueprint of gnawing legs and whatnot… we all laughed at the time… no more laughing. Get guys who really give a shit. Riddance to Barion and his pussy alligator arms.
Just buying piles of shit now for Christmas. Being equitable to both boys is difficult when the little guy wants nothing and the big guy has a specific list a mile long.
Paul Young had some ‘80’s bangers
December activities:
Hosting 7-fish Xmas Eve dinner(27 guests) this weekend.
Keene’s Steakhouse booked.
Mohonk Mountain House booked.
Cats tOSU.
Man, eff the Mets. For those that think NYC is a Yankees town, think again. It is still a National League city even though having been left at the altar 65 years ago by both the Giants and Dodgers. Sports talk radio is really unlistenable now. Just wanna see a fat useless Soto in 2-3 years. Caespades level fail… oh well. I felt the Yankees were playing second fiddle to any organization not dominated by Latinos.

It hasn't helped Sumrall that Tulane got smoked their last 2 games. He may still be an option for some next year if he wants to move up.
Not even close to accurate. Yanks popularity doubles that of the Metropolitans.
Oh man. We have all gotten older, but the in game red ass remains the same.
Remember, this team has played 12 games in total together, and 10 that meant anything.
Pope is a ****ing savant with an excellent staff of assistants and an Amex black card for resources.
Teams are allowed to have off nights, like losing to Clemson, but our program is in some excellent ****ing hands and we will be fine. For a long time.

- I thought Brady told us his best friend was a lock for UNC, and UK was the dumbest place on earth to stand by and let it happen?
- Excited for a trip to Indy next week for the Elf play. I kind of messed up scheduling it for a school day so the kids won’t be going to school the last day before Xmas break…….12/20 and they weren’t out for break yet, WTF, I blame the teachers.
- I have jobs going in Ruston, LA and Warner Robbins, GA that are determined to ruin my holidays.
- Bottled our first barrel pick in the distillery. Wasn’t prepared and see now I’m going to need some grunt workers. Wondering if there is age limits to work with alcohol since my kids are negotiating cash payments already.
- Traynum to the portal? Good. More signs Wilcox could be convinced with the right money.
If we are going to suck, supposedly, next year anyway let it rip with Boley and these position guys and throw what you have at an OL. We’ve been young on defense before so that side is a toss up regardless when you are outmatched.
I’m not scared of being bad and young, I am scared to not let these kids get the experience they’ll need to better themselves for year 3 or 4 of their college careers.
Stoops job here isn’t more important than the future of our players.

Is Trayanum Stoops' Shaedon Sharpe? What were we even doing there?
A black guy named “Chip” was an immediate red flag imo
Have to think there are some salty folks who paid his NIL right now.....
I have a confession to make. I went to bed at halftime of the gonzaga game. Wasn’t really out of anger, bc I fell right to sleep. Just being and old fat dad that had spent the day wrangling kids and taking them all over creation. BUT, fortunately for me my wife woke me up to tell me it was tied with one minute left. Quickly opened YouTube tv on my iPhone and watched it all play out. Mark pope just gives me the warm and fuzzies man. Loved the play call to get Oweh driving for a last shot. Couldn’t believe my eyes when we jumped out to a quick 6 point lead in OT. Those things just haven’t happened for us in years.
Mags, I owe you some nice comments. The cowboy hat looks great. Entertaining week last week. Max knows ball. Who would’ve thought an Australian punter would be breaking down college basketball so well? I know he’s a busy dude but we need more of him.
Xmas shopping is about 98% complete. Mostly baseball equipment for the older 2. That stuff is crazy. I hear hockey is worse, but baseball can’t be too far behind. It’s the accessories that get ya!!
Haven’t watched hardly any Xmas movies yet. Been so busy w college hoops and middle school hoops. My can’t miss Xmas movies every year
- Xmas vacation
- home alone (original)
- a Charlie Brown Christmas
Overrated but will still watch
- a Christmas story (used to be higher on my list but it’s fallen)
- elf - think this is more popular with younger millennials and gen Z but still makes the list
- the grinch (2000) same as elf. Came out when I was in HS so it’s not stuck to my nostalgia like the top 3.

And Coen is laughing his ass off
Kansas gets blasted twice in one week by unranked opponents but stays in the AP Top 10. 😆
And Duke jumps us in spite of a similar number of good wins and a direct win over them.
Whatever.
Whatever.
3 in the top 5.
5 in the top 10.
9 in the top 25.
Never thought I'd see the day.

1) Cheerleading
2) Hockey
3) Baseball
I literally had this almost same exact conversation with another baseball dad while we were sitting at a cheerleading competition in Louisville yesterday (our daughters are on the same team).
The hockey part I know because my BIL played at UK and now has sons that skate over in the ice center leagues in Lexington. They travel to Cincunattuh a lot for games. Also ridiculous amounts of money.
But cheerleading is an absolute racket, it should honestly be criminal. And they don’t even have any equipment. It’s literally just the fees and costs for everything that are absurdly inflated. He and I joked that we should just start our own cheerleading competition and rake the cash.
🤬
It takes some odd logic to leapfrog Duke over Kentucky. My word... LOL
