    I will be 0% surprised when a large-scale point shaving scandal in college sports gets exposed. Not just with some of our players, I mean on a much broader scale. The ready availability of sports gambling is exposing an entire generation of (largely, male and young) people to their...

    I can't bring myself to be angry with Pope at all. I feel awful for him. I feel awful for all of us watching this garbage too, but I can't imagine failing so publicly at something I desperately wanted and in a place I love like Pope loves UK. He's in over his head, he's smart enough to know it...

    I've fully checked out on this season because I just don't have the bandwidth. But the JMI deal might fully break my spirit. What a corrupt, stupid move. That kind of exclusivity/monopoly benefits no one except the two parties to the deal, and then only temporarily. Any deal like that is pure...

    Groan man is my hatboggan. As much as I wanted Stoops to GTFO a couple years ago because it was clearly time, I don't hold any ill will. He coached UK to some of the best seasons of my life, had slews of great, fun players (obviously we all wish there were more), and got my lifelong diehard fan...

    I shamefully admitted as much to my husband a few weeks ago. I lost something in 2015, like everybody else, and Cal being Cal crushed my remaining spirit into dust after that. I love Pope, but this team isn't good, and the game just isn't what it was. The shift in the game itself is not Pope's...

    Pretty sure I saw a mountain lion when we were in NJ. (Who was all in 70,000 strong on pumas in Kentucky on the old board? One of the funniest bits of CatPaw I can recall)

    - Levis' shot at being a starter probably died last year anyway, but having surgery for a shoulder injury now and basically forfeiting the gig to Cam Ward is a rough go. He's a flawed player, sure, but damn. I feel awful for him. - I have moved from feeling bad about UK football to feeling...

    Rogue, this is GYERO. If you're not reading Le Petit Prince in the original French, then your a idiot. C'mon now.

    I felt more refreshed being home on Saturday with nowhere to go than I did in a week away. Seriously entertaining the idea of staycations only til kid is older.

    - Mario Kart on N64, Guitar Hero III on Playstation II, and Need for Speed...II? Idk, it was old when I played it, but it ruled and I kicked *** at it. I wrecked everyone on GHIII because I may have spent most of a winter break playing it one year. Still miss that game tbh. Makes me want to fire...

    Baby Pretzel has several years before he's in sports, and I am already dreading it. Not because I don't want him to play - I hope he finds something he loves - but I don't want to get sucked into the travel ball ********. My husband played HS baseball, went to the state championship, and then...

    - OPE, IT'S DA POPE I saw a tweet that Pope Bob was living in Chicagoland in 1985, so he is certainly aware of the Superbowl Shuffle. All I can picture is a Pope out of a John Hughes movie. (And I will hear no Ferris Bueller slander.) - Not sure how I got through the whole winter without...

    We got Amazon deliveries ahead of schedule the same week Boone County Sheriffs had to shoot a guy by the Amazon Florence distribution facility, soooo... ...that sounds like a New Orleans problem. USPS has been a mess lately otherwise, however. The Cincinnati Distro Center must be rife with Ice...

    I saw a child in a Big Dog t-shirt at Good Friday service this weekend. I noticed it during the somberest song, which was the best possible juxtaposition. ETA: Said child was not baby logic.
