He’s not really 15 lol. Obviously I wouldn’t joke like that with an actual child.
No not towards him. I wasn’t saying that because I thought he was a child. Just in general pedo stuff isn’t funny but I get you didn’t mean it any kind of way like that which is why I said I’m not jumping on your case for it. That’s something that makes me want to take somebody’s life with my bare hands. Not joke about it. I hate all the pizza stuff out there because it’s 100% real life . It’s not a conspiracy. And it’s not just elites. People eating pizza in every neighborhood in America and I’d kill em all . The slow way. I’d torture them

I hear ya. Obviously it’s turned into an epidemic, child abuse is so rampant (I deal with it in my profession). Some people think they understand it by watching the news or videos but I promise until people see it up close you can’t realize how much it’s going on in every single town.

That’s not the worst part to me, well, it’s not the only part. You really want to get pissed off? Take a look at national wide sentences for pedo’s. Sorry but especially females. It’s unbelievable what these judges are doing. Even when they can go harsher many times over they don’t. Kids are destroyed, pedo wake after 5.

Many do what can be done to help but it’s so much and it’s so common you feel like you’re fighting the wind.

Yea you don’t really do time for anything these days unless you are selling dope and making tax free money. They don’t care if you’re fkn kids or murdering people.

I'll admit I put dead but somehow still on rafters as a ghost because 1) It was a hilarious choice, so kudos on offering it and 2) I feel like the real me died in 2012 in Afghanistan and what came home was a completely different person. (Not to get too dark or sappy). I haven't fanned the same since for sure. Neither too high, or too low, regardless of how we do. Kinda "It is what it is" mentality. And it sucks. I wanna carry torches and pitchforks dangit! lol
I hear you. Same here after PI, Korea and Japan In theater.Thanks for your service.

I joined a month or so ago, long time reader but never joined because when I tried it years ago on the old "Cats Pause" board it kept denying me. Oh well, I'm here to stay now. I'm a season ticket holder in football & love the cats in basketball also. I started following the Cats in basketball Sam Bowie's freshman year, an older gentleman (neighbor) saved all of his "Cats Pause" for me to read, so informative for me to keep up with the Cats back then long before the internet lol.

From reading all the posts in this thread, I noticed that only me & "I'm The Village Idiot" posted our real names, I think it would be interesting for everyone to post their names also, maybe some of us would be shocked that we know one another lol.

Just so I’m positive. Is there something else with y’all’s pizza stuff? Or is pedo stuff funny to yall? Just tryna see something..
I don’t believe in the pizzagate conspiracy. The gif was a joke about Nitro, a wrestling fan and Luigi Primo.

I don't need a poll to tell me it's around 13-15 average with all the dumb crap that is posted.

Just hit the big 4-0.

I feel 67, try and take this basketball thing seriously which means I come off around 19ish? 16ish?

But some of the crap is so incredible I just can’t figure out what is going on sometimes.
This is why we are in alignment. 85 babies lol

Also not to act like anything I’ve done is close to going overseas and serving our country but I can relate to the feeling dead part. My kids are the only thing in the real world that prevent that from being all the way true.

Kentucky basketball was a staple of my life growing up and even my dad just really don’t care about them like he used to. He’s the one that got me into this crap hardcore then dipped on me. I’m really fighting to keep my passion alive for UK. Not that it’s hard for me to love Kentucky but seems like the overall passion from the fanbase in general isn’t the same. As a 5-6 year old kid I could see what UK was. It’s getting harder and harder to see it the same.

I grew up seeing opposing fans hate us. Calling us cheaters. Our own fans being hardcore. It just seems different. But it’s understandable.. something happened in the last 25 years that changed everything. Nothing is the same.
I was a quitter. I could have served 33 years but tapped at 32.
Both comments resonate with me.
I’ve served with people whose PTSD is both greater and lower than mine. Helped when I could, took help when needed.
I grew up listening to Cawood on the radio with my Grandma who taught me to bleed blue — and cuss — thanks Jimel Martinez. Lol
This years team has brought super highs and super lows just like my PTSD.

Been on this board since my 20s, I'm 40 now

There used to be a few people on here that got together and played Halo on the first xbox...

Also in the early 2000s I drove down to Lexington from Cincy to play basketball at, I think, something called the KBA. This was before TCCAT had some sort of troubles because I think he was there

I have been a lurker on this board for about 3 years before I decided to get out of my shell and posted.

I used to be called Farsight on Cats Illustrated board, and started in 2011. Since I don't remember what email was tied to that account, I had to make a new one, thus why I am a clone lmao

We need to do a RR BBQ at my farm. Central location in South Central KY. Anyone I've ever banned or deleted their post can extract their revenge.
I would love to come. I’d wear a name tag hello my name is morgousky. That would be cool. Cover it up and everyone chat for about an hour then start guessing at who’s who. we could ask questions. My hatred for Barnhart would seep into a question about something totally unrelated and it would probably give it away though.

“So you like Toyota?”

- yea and that reminds of of what Mitch said, remember when he….

I think if people actually met in person, it would be a whole different thing than on here.

I'm Warren, a resident Runt around here.... been here a long time. I'm 57. Been going to UK games both at home and away since 1974. First game for me, in person ? Bloomington, 1974. Trial by fire ( we got our asses handed to us, but the revenge that year was OH SO SWEET ) !! Lurked on the Cat's Pause version of the message board since it began, but finally started an account in the Tubby years to join all us Raftards out here.

Always like to see everyone out here and interact with so many. Muchly appreciated, friends !

From the high's and low's - from the disappointments to the triumphs, we are all the beating heart of BBN.

Go Big Blue ..... FOREVER !
