I knew somebody on here was a damn ghost… hopefully everyone puts an accurate age. I’m really curious to see. At least kind of accurate.
Next I’ll need y’all’s social security number lol

edit: hopefully nobody on here is 90… I assumed 80s would be the limit. Not because a 90-100 year old couldn’t be on here.. just didn’t think they would give two flying ***** about the internet.

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

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.

Glad you are still around and haven't let the intrusive thoughts win. Even bad days on the right side of dirt is better than not being.

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.
Cowboy said you was a Dukie lol

You know........looking at the results, I'm actually sorta surprised lol

I guess it does make sense. We've had quite a bit of people including myself that have been quite some time.

It's just leaning a bit older than I would have suspected.

Also the comments of some always struck me as a much younger base lol.
