What KAT strategy? I can't imagine anyone is recruiting bigs against Kentucky by saying "Take Karl Anthony Towns for example..."

 

[MaxPowerrr]

I’m going to spend this Christmas holiday watching old tapes of Billy Gillespie and try to remind myself of where we were.


This won’t help and in fact will only make me saltier but it’s the thought that counts.

 

[PuffyNips]

The KAT strategy?

You mean the one that turned the #5 ranked prospect with a weak inside game into the #1 overall pick and one of the best bigs in the NBA?

You been sniffing the toasted rye barrels, Krazy?

Merry Christmas, you goofy bastard.

 

[krazykats]

He took that dude that could absolutely face up and shoot the ball, as we’ve seen since, and force fed him with his back to the basket in the post.

If you want to go pro, then that level is all about the face up and ability to shoot.

How many true post back to the basket guys are real dependable contributors? 5 maybe 6?

 

[PTI Anon1640710541]

Your dependably an idiot.

 

[WayneDougan_rivals170043]

I’m confused. Are you all saying EJ is a good face up guy and Cal is just using him incorrectly?

 

[UKwizard]

EJ isn't good at anything. Merry Christmas.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

Merry Christmas, GYERO. May your shitters, and your stockings, be full.

 

[legalbeagle123]

Merry Christmas and Beat Louisville.

I just assume all the nativity scenes have Baby Yoda in them this year.

Merry Christmas Eve, GYERO

[GrandePdre]

Merry Christmas, Wildcat Friends.

96 IU-UK from Freedom Hall on ESPN U now if you want an early Christmas Present while waiting for your kids to wake up.

It's 24-7 already.

Man...
Epps-Anderson-Mercer-Prickett-Nazr on the floor now.

This is awesome.

 

[UpstateNYCat]

Maul at the Hall, one of my favorites. The look of dismay on Knight's face is priceless.

 

[PTI Anon1640710541]

That was before Duke invented the charge.

 

[WayneDougan_rivals170043]

My wife and I got our signals mixed up and gave my diabetic dog a double dose of insulin this morning. I jumped on Google thinking you’d hear something like “no big deal, just give him a cookie”. Nope! Apparently too much insulin is not something to be messed with... so here I sit on Christmas at the Emergency vet’s office. I’m sure it will be cheap, too. [eyeroll]

 

[rudd1]

-more importantly are they serving booze at the vets office?*


*hope your pup is ok, for real.

Merry Christmas Gyero!!

 

[Ron Mehico]

Merry Xmas!

Im more of a scotch drinker, but sipped on basil Hayden dark rye all last night - absolutely delicious. Have no clue how that’s viewed by bourbon purists but definitely one of my favorites I’ve had.

 

[BBdK]

It’s not for me, I guess it would be an okay dessert drink.

Bonzo worships

 

[Geese Feeder]

It's OK. Better than the 2x2 and Caribbean Rye but that's not saying much. Booker enjoys at least.

There are much better ryes out there IMO. Start with the Old Fo' -- which you can find anywhere and only about $20-25.

 

[drxman1]

Developing a taste for rye as well, agree the Old Fo is very good. High West is also pretty solid rye, worship the midwinter nights dram, but it’s not easy to find.

 

[Wynn Duffy 69]

Knob Creek single barrel rye is another good easy to find one. Sipping on some now with my old man, in fact.

Cheers, GYERO.

 

[Hank Camacho]

In small town Texas bars, apparently it is acceptable to pour (stingily, I might add) rye when someone orders bourbon.

Do better Texas.

 

[drxman1]

Single barrel russel reserve barrel pick for boat dad here right now. Getting ready to host the relatives...with very polar partisanship. Hopefully everyone respects the rules and no politics brought up. It’s ok to take the day off from being woke.

puppies.

 

[WayneDougan_rivals170043]

Dog is fine; still have to take his blood every two hours which is not fun, but not terrible.

Good luck on the party, Doc. My wife’s family has some hyper-partisan leftists, but nobody has ever talked about it at Christmas. Some of my cousins however, hoo boy. They stopped coming to my house for Christmas after Trump won. And we had never even discussed politics. They just knew I liked him and that was enough.

Surveillance crew working Christmas. We took the guy gumbo yesterday; was appreciated.

 

[bluthruandthru]

 

[80 Proof]

Merry Christmas ********!

 

[BristolCat_rivals158386]

My father-in-law is militantly pro-windmill, and one of my cousins is engaged to a bald eagle, so I always end up playing peacemaker. Good luck to you guys.

 

[rudd1]

-merry christmas, gang.

 

[_Chase_]

You’re a garbage ******* loser if you bring up politics at a family Christmas gathering.

 

[krazykats]

Garbage ******* loser, is that a new label from the left?

 

[BristolCat_rivals158386]

Exactly. It's really not hard. We believe different stuff and we have plenty of time to fight about it if we want. It's Christmas. Shut TF up and talk about the cayts, or the kids, or whatever else for four f*cking hours like you've got some sense. And if someone else makes some political comment or joke, you no-sell it, ignore it, and go right back to small talk.

 

[Wodie sloot]

Please don’t be alarmed if you see Clyde on Nextdoor lose on Cooper Drive. ‍ Thanks to the neighbor that got him home. Dang gate got left open and I didn’t check before letting him out. That could have really screwed up the day.

Merry Christmas, GYERO!

 

[PTI Anon1640710541]

Probably just heard you people arguing about politics and had enough.

 

[Kooky Kats_anon]

I put down half a bottle of Joseph Magnus this extendo-weekend.

Not sure if I love it, worship it or have mixed feelings... it’s so different every pour. 2 of the 7 drinks I had off this bottle were exciting and complex. Then it kinda flattened off. Will go back to it this weekend to really dig in and think about it.

Ryes are growing on me as well:

I got a Midwinters Night Dram and Parker’s Heritage, but have been regularly been tugging on the Pikesville and HillRock double rye. Both excellent.

will pop the big boppers when I can truly acclimate fully to the spiciness.

wife got me a Michter’s 10 and a 4 Roses Small Batch Select 104° for the ole stocking.

Merry Christmas, indeed.

 

[BBdK]

TMac probably gets left out more than he should when discussing the most talented dudes of this era.

 

[Hank Camacho]

For some reason, I always jumble McGrady and Joe Johnson into one super 6'8 guard from the Aughts.

Just checked and Joe Johnson briefly made a roster this year. That's amazing. He started playing in the NBA in 2001.
