UC just cut Men’s Soccer, effective immediately. Here we go!

Maybe if posters didn't feel the need to embed everyone of her tweets in the thread.

Maybe if she weren't the perfect embodiment of where we are, that would be nice.

#selfquarantine

Maybe #GetInTheGoddamnGym should be our next stupid platitude.

Just get a basic small classy metal sign, put an esquire after your name and take a photo.
Take the sign down when done

They specifically told me they would not accept that.

 

[_Chase_]

I can render a fake sign for you if you send me a picture with nice perspectival references (not dead on axially, but from an angle).

Appreciate the offer. I considered faking it but thought if they figured it out that they’d punish my site. So didn’t want to risk it.

Permanent sign should be up within a week. Finally.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

I, for one, enjoy reading Toots’ ******, rage-inducing tweets.

 

[B Rax_rivals210137]

I made a Jennifer Palumbo parody account a few years ago where it was just her not-so-humble bragging about her typical **** but ending each tweet with a reference to having absolutely horrific painful gas. It never took off but was probably my favorite gimmick.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

You will never top TOMMA, bub. Sorry.

If I could like this twice, I would.

Tip: Do what they ask. Don't want to be banned from the google.

 

[Rex Kwon Do]

You will never top TOMMA, bub. Sorry.

1. Having to take down pictures of Sable
2. Hooting and hollering causing Terry Lynn to be on the phone with their Pastor
3. Eating 36 Butterfingers

And so on. Pure gold.

Welp. Apparently Travis Graf confirmed he’s hearing the rumors as well. [sick]

Just came over to post this.
F*** everything.

Terrence Clarke can’t go to the G-league, he reclassified so he’s like a 15 year old child.

 

[BristolCat_rivals158386]

Last year the G-league started offering "Select Contracts." Players who aren't eligible yet (first year out of high school guys, specifically) can sign for a Select Contract, and instead of making the standard 35k average G-league contract, they get paid 125K.

EDIT: Forget this-- Matt Jones is saying there are offers out and the G-League is specifically recruiting certain high school players with contracts of up to 500K.

Shout out to the NCAA for sitting around on their fat asses and letting this happen.

 

[TCPUKChamps]

So 7 players next year now? Gonna recruit some soccer players to fill out the roster next?

This has turned into an all out dumpster fire

 

[BristolCat_rivals158386]

So 7 players next year now?

That would mean starting something like Askew, Boston, Ware, Jackson, Brooks.

With a bench of
Dontaie Allen
Camron Fletcher
Davion Mintz

And at this point you might be able to add Haarms, but there's not much else out there. Cal needs to re-recruit Clarke like his life depends on it.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

I don’t miss all sports the same

 

[BBdK]

Lol. If the GLeague is offering you 500K, they obviously consider you a top prospect.

Why would any kid turn down that vs 6 months pretending to go to college?

If these top kids do that successfully this year & are drafted accordingly, it’s all over the the NCAA as far as high level 5 stars are concerned.

 

[wildcat1973_rivals160373]

The whole model is about to change. Without elite players, March Madness and the associated revenue will suffer. This loss of revenue trickles down to all sports. The big question is football. Most Division 1 athletic programs can’t survive in their current state without football revenue. If there is no football in the fall, it’s going to be a bloodbath.

 

[tommyg4uk]

So Rod Strickland is the main one recruiting Clarke to the G League?

F*** him. Cal basically gave him a job when he was toxic with his five DUIs.

Kentucky Football is where it’s at these days.

 

[UKwizard]

Pinning all our hopes and dreams on UK football has worked out well for us.

 

[Hank Camacho]

2020.

 

[anthonys735]

Football isn't changing yet because they don't have legit competition. But, this has been coming for years and it's not just going to be the elite guys. They'll go to the best teams. The next tier will end up overseas. Plus, you'll still have 1 and done. NCAA sat around and waited and they're going to get their wish the talent is going to get paid elsewhere.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

NCAA probably caused the coronavirus or at least didn’t implement widespread testing and containment early enough because they ignored warnings from experts.

 

[TheShowKiller]

*UK football has it best roster of my lifetime and I’m a man, and the season is going to get cancelled due to a global pandemic. Yup, sounds about right.

*I said this on one of those other threads but if Andy is looking at raw “tested positive” numbers this thing is going to go on indefinitely as we continue to test more people. I’m sure he and his inner circle have more context than that but in his daily briefings it’s just raw “this many new cases” stats which don’t tell the whole story.

*Bbdk getting upset at people that ignore his FB pizza vote rules is my new hatboggen.

*If I’m being honest, it annoys me that we put GNE’s team on the schedule and we can’t figure out the IU game.

*At least when all this is over Twitter and FB will sort out who was right and who was wrong pretty quickly.

 

[anthonys735]

FTR, Tennessee tested the same number of people in the last week as Kentucky has tested total. They're also working on plans to gradually open things back up while we are inner-fighting and continuing to shut businesses. But I guess enjoy your beers and all.

 

[Brandan Stroud]

What are the chances ol Andy has gotten a haircut since this whole thing started? Maybe mine just grows faster, but I'd swap lettuce with him in a heartbeat

 

[TCPUKChamps]

Beshear gonna be 1 and done?

 

[anthonys735]

-Will Boston be next? Bigger name, already been in that lifestyle, higher rated. Clarke was tweeting about winning #9 as recent as last night. Lol. FM. Took a pandemic to finally knock the wheels off NCAABB. This has been coming for years and it's all **** that could have been avoided. They made the shoe companies look like the bad guys and I assume they're going to pay for it now.

-In lighter news: G has proclaimed the 2 greatest players ever -> Michael Jordan(great call) and Josh Ali(UKFB WR). Debate.

-We'll get football in some capacity. Too much money. I would think mass gatherings are going to be a way off.

-Tour back on bitches. Late August. This fall has the potential to be lit. Cramming 12 months of sports in 3 or 4 is going to be awesome. May have to finally mount a couple more TVs for adequate coverage.

-Appears Golf is eyeing early June to start w/out fans.

-Took a new approach to Easter candy, basically just waxed it all in 48 hours. Just get it gone and get back on the clean living plan.

-It's the little things, started keeping a cold rotating mug in the freezer for my post ride crispy boy. Kinda silly I didn't do it before but filling the void of cold draft domestos for the time being.

-Doctors(health care pros), Vineyard Vines is 50% off everything today.

 

[mashburned]

I’d like to see Joel initiate a conversation with Rod.

 

[LowerLevelSeatA]

I posted in another thread, but here is some context on the Corona numbers:
https://kygeonet.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/be6aa027e95e44ff81294fd442d2ff48

The governors website.... not very user friendly. But you can click on a county and see how many ever hospitalized, how many ever were in ICU, total cases, etc. Based on this, not much going on in Fayette County thus far.
Fayette County:
Population 325,520
Confirmed Cases 206
Ever hospitalized 18
Ever in ICU 9
Deaths 7

And in Jefferson County:
Population 778,224
Confirmed Cases 573
Ever hospitalized 110
Ever in ICU 28

If ANDY thinks we’re going to be sitting here in late June all nodding our heads while sitting on our asses in solitude watching the economy burn to the ground he has another thing coming.

“SHHH. SHHH. ANDY IS SPEAKING.”

“BEERS WITH BESHEAR!”

STFU, losers. If this thing flattens way out the way the models suggest along with the general public having access to testing sooner than later then put down the Tik Tok, strap on your boots you lazy asses and get back to work. Apply common sense. If you don’t feel well and or are showing symptoms, then stay home.

 

[mashburned]

Oh my, Richie, that is not positive thinking. We are not yet at our peak, and as Kentuckians we should all be willing to do whatever it takes to save lives. Now go outside and make some chalk art!

I think ANDY generally has done a good job up until this point, but yes, it is starting to look like he might have a real hard-on for this stuff and for staying shut down.

Implying that we’re going to be in this current state through late June? That scares the **** out of me.

 

[MaxPowerrr]

You all complain about Andy but the reals are over here wondering why the KY Supreme Court already called off the month of May.

 

[Hank Camacho]

I'll give Andy this --> my grandmother is a diehard democrat. As a good grandson during a quarantine, I check in on her regularly. If I call her about 5:05 I know she is going to ask me how my day was, tell me she is fine, tell me she loves me and then GTFO the phone so she can get back to her date with Ol' Andy.

It is the little things.

 

[anthonys735]

Eric Crawford, of all people, with a great read on the situation.

Uhh, because government employees are known the be the biggest workforce slackers of all with the least incentive to worry about the free market chugging along to pay their bills???
