KY Gets Back On Track - Defeats Vandy 85-72

Lebron James does "the Y" at the game.

Need A Laugh?

Everything He Touches Turns To _______

BO called the KY basketball team the afternoon before the game to congratulate them for helping raise $1 million for Haiti and the Cats go GO DOWN to South Carolina one day after being ranked #1. Coincidence? :)

"Be honest," Downey said. "No one gave us a chance."
That included Obama, not that Downey wanted to crow like Cocky the mascot.
"I'm scared to say anything," he said. "That's the president. Somebody might be knocking on my door in the morning."

An Evening in O'Connell Arena - 17-0 Baby!

Tuesday night was fun as I got an up close first hand look at Gator basketball. Obvious differences between Gator basketball and KY basketball:
1. Much smaller arena
2. Gator basketball fans get down on their team very quickly. KY fans stand yelling "defense" or they're up encouraging the team when they fall behind. FL fans only get excited when it gets close or they get the lead. As soon as they fall behind, the fans start pouting.
3. FL's student section loves shouting vulgarities! Thank God I did not have a small child anywhere near it.
4. There only seems to be 2 or 3 cheers that the fans know and all of them have the gator chomp in them; pretty monotonous.

I had a great time! The food in the media room was decent and it was fun watching Dick Vitale, Erin Andrews and ESPN do their thing. Great road win in the SEC for the Cats!

20,720 Hits for Justin on You Tube

from Sports Illustrated...
So pervasive is Wall's influence on Bluegrass culture these days that it wasn't even the first time he'd stolen the show from Louisville. During Kentucky's Big Blue Madness celebration to kick off practice in October, Wall riled up the Rupp faithful with an arm-flexing, wrist-twisting dance routine. No matter how many times Wall says he got the idea from watching Louisville hip-hop king Kenzo's video for Do the Shizz, everyone keeps calling it the John Wall Dance ("Not my dance!" Wall vows). Do a YouTube search, and you'll find it being performed by smitten UK fans atop the Great Wall of China, above the carcass of a deer and even in a scene on the TV show Cougar Town.

Happy Birthday Mary! Love ya!!

Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve

For some strange reason, each year on New Year's Eve, I end up watching Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. This was its 38th year. I think this year is my last. I thought the entertainers were weak, the kisses were stupid, and God Bless him, I just can't understand Dick Clark. I have to give him credit for trying and his speech has actually improved since his stroke last year but the show was painful to watch.

With all that said...Happy New Year! Grandkids are coming and we will be welcoming my brother's fiance' into the family. A lot to look forward to and to be thankful for in 2010. 2009 - not too bad - but I think 2010 is going to be great!
