I think 2009 was the last date that the street view had it. Or at least that I could. I'm sure cricket will find one more recent just to prove me incorrect.
I love that Scangarello talks up Eddie Gran in this clip. That's something he didn't have to do and speaks to good character.
oh man
Stevie - Done got loose
that one doesn't ever seem to get old

I obviously wasn't there for all of them. But when Stevie got Loose, I thought the upper deck may go down. Craziest celebration ever. That stadium was literally moving
Hard to believe that's been 15 years ago.
I am still worn out from that 97 Bama celebration…. My gosh, what a night that was.
You can make a solid argument that Oscar, Fredrick, and Toppin are our most important players next year -- in that order.
- SEC Network for some UK basketball in less than 24 hours? I want to see us murder these teams. I'm also ready for a Bengals pre-season game sandwiched in-between, and then I'm ready to flip my switch for Levis and the boys.
- Man, what a an absolute savage Greg Giraldo was a roasting.
"Flava Flav, you look like a skeleton wrapped in electrical tape. You look like a turd with teeth."
"Give it up for Lisa Lampanelli...give it up for that guy, wasn't he funny? Lisa actually has a lot in common with Octomon--the mom that gave birth to all of those babies--she's never given birth, but she has had eighty fingers inside of her at the same time."
- Honest question: do they still sell popcorn you can pop on the stove top? Not sure I've looked for that option in decades. 1983 staple of a Saturday night with my mom and sister: hearing that thing ready to pop, smelling the brownies and ready to hear that 80's HBO movie opening theme.
- Trying to plan a 3 or 4 day weekend road trip with the kid. The plan now is KY to tip of Maine. I'd love to stop into Saratoga for at least 3-4 races. Anyone have a template road map?
- Back to school obviously was not something anyone wanted to do, but it was always cool to get to that first day of elementary/middle school and get the seats by your buddies for the year.
- Oktoberfest here in downtown Maysville this weekend. Fill up a big *** cooler of beer outside the door of the loft and just enjoy 48 hours of unhealthy food, go-to German polka music, lassies in garb and obvious cleavage, and great comradery.
- Hit a sweet Daily Double at Del Mar Sunday (Race 2-3) that will pretty much pay for Keeneland's Fall Meet and perhaps a Breeders' Cup seat.
By the way, anyone have any hook-ups in November just in case?
- I will still defend Janet all day, but why didn't her and Chrissy just get an apartment like Larry did, and him Jack could have utilized that two-bedroom without having to pretend to be gay.
- I am a crunchy peanut butter in-between two crackers guy. Ritz over Zesta.
- I'm team summer all the way, but I'm ready for a 50-degree Saturday with one of those QUARTERBACK GAMBOL cards in hand/BOVADA and hoping to make bank with 14 hours worth of college football.
- Cats by 24 tomorrow night.

How’s Oscar gonna get the 20 rebounds per game goal if we’re making every 3? Cal’s gotta figure this out quickly.
You can find Jiffy Pop at your local Rural King. Wasn't worth having a $600 door dent from a runaway shopping cart hitting my car at the time, but they definitely carry it near the cash register lines.
I looked at that once. Best way is to cross over into Canada at Cornwall and drive through Montreal and Quebec City to get there. We ended up driving to Kennebunkport then up to Portland and Portland Head Lighthouse instead. As cool as that site was, I spent more time watching some young college students across the field spreading out a large tarp in the 50-degree drizzle, pouring cooking oil all over it, then taking turns sliding down the tarp in their bathing suits.
- One hot July day, I walked (carried) 36 holes straight through > Drove home > Stripped off my shirt and shoes and socks as I walked around back to the pool > Jumped in > Had every muscle in my body cramp up > Yelled for my mom to fish me out with a pool noodle as a strapping 16 year old. - Simultaneous underwater quad, hamstring, calf, and tibialis anterior cramps are a relentless foe. Humbling.
- Last week, I horned in on one of my son’s scheduled golf lessons (made the first 45 minutes into a tune up for dad) and dropped a bunch of strokes in the subsequent round. Feels good, man.
- How many articles of clothing for uniforms can a seven year old’s soccer team reasonably require for purchase? I say eleven is pushing it.

Flav, you look like Idi Amin after a three year crack binge on the Sun.
Why does footage from 7-8 years ago look like it's from the 70s? I had an HD TV in 2005. I know that **** wasn't that grainy on live TV.
Rob Bromley has been a huge part of the BBN for my entire life, and I don't want to disparage, but DAMN, is there a single person in the industry with a worse voice for broadcasting? Every word sounds like a yawn. Beth Mowins is a distant second.
That video brought back some great memories. Stevie getting loose will never, never get old. The ensuing pandemonium per square foot in my living room matched that in the stadium.
Basketball day. These off season things are such a blessing. Gotta break up that lull between the NBA Finals and NFL/CFB Week 1. It can get downright depressing.

Wednesday Thoughts:
Game Day!
Phone solicitations suck anyway, but the people calling from the police fundraisers are by far the pushiest and most aggressive. Not surprising considering everything.
Got some incredible weather on the horizon. Looking forward to sipping coffee on the deck with some Autum air.
Inflation only 8.5% #rolleyes
I hate to wish ill of anyone in real life, but Trump becoming a heart disease statistic would be the best thing that could happen for this country.
Loving all the back to school pics on social media.
My biggest concern for the football team this year is a toss up between the new blocking scheme for the OL and the new OC possibly being too cerebral for 19 year olds.
Gotta love hearing the new freshman TE is an aggressive bastard with a mean streak from multiple practice reports.
Trying to plan out an Alaska fishing trip next summer with my dad and son. Too many great options on lodges/locations, anyone have any tips?
Interest is up and the stock markets down. Does anyone know how the Mississippi River is holding up, hopefully it's not going dry?
Oldest starts 1st grade tomorrow.
Might be a Bourbon and Toulouse kind of day for lunch.

2 separate cold calls from these jokers on a corporate line. As they are professional solicitors, and not sure where and how money is distributed, they won't get one red cent from me. They are awful people.
Go Fund Me's, church, and school, are generally where my donations head, can see the impact and they're generally local folks affected. The bureaucracy and greed of these larger organizations is pretty off putting.
- Somehow I had completely forgotten all about that Timmons TD against South Carolina.
- Those were the most electric moments in Kroger Field history. But the least-electric game, at least when it comes to wins, had to be that 3-0 victory over Indiana back in '96. I was living out west at the time, but friends who went said it was the most mind-numbingly boring game they'd ever seen.
- Last "first day of school" for the oldest tomorrow. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried just a bit over my emotional state about it.
- Bahamas goals...win all the games, avoid all the injuries. That's it. Kick a little tush and get back on the bus.
- Who buys all these New Era MLB cap variations? They seemingly put out a new series each week.
- After my dad moved into assisted living, but before we sold his house, I got his mail every day. Absolutely amazed at how many solicitation letters he got from various charities. At least 2-3 a day, and I know he hadn't contributed to all of them. Pretty infuriating to think that these groups probably just get mailing lists of older adults who they think they can prey on.

As someone that would know, you can narrow those mailing lists down to some VERY specifics factors.
Was at that game. I can confirm it was in fact the absolute worst game I have ever seen or attended in person. Younger folks today have no idea just how bad the Curry years were.
Was present as well. We lost to Louisiana Monroe around that time also, giving them their first D1 victory. Good times.
I was there and would argue it was the worst competitive (i.e., close) game in CFB history. UK’s offense crossed the 50 one time, I believe - and won!
That game was in 1994 which to this day has to be the worst season in KY Football history. That team was historically terrible (1-10). Of course, the 1 win was against UofL
Damn I love the SEC.
Right now Bumper Pool is being interviewed on SEC Network. Marty McGee and The Other Guy lead off just cacklin and howling about this hit…
Damn Bumper yain’t hafta hit the poor lil big10 feller like that!
…yes, they were running the option with Sean Clifford.
What a disaster for PSU. 7-6 year. Physically abused yet again by a SEC team in their bowl game. I hope for Clifford’s sake he is finally done with football.

Which given the time and circumstances was a deal I'd have made (1-10, win over UofL).
My dad driving up 5 hours to watch UK/Ohio U on the new ESPN Gameplan was an all time low for me. I think it was 2005.
One of Pa Paws first problems was the wrong OC to pair with The Round Mound of Touchdown.
I lived in Charlotte during the 2007 season and decided that with my $40k salary that buying season tickets would be a wise purchase. That was an expensive fall but probably the most fun i've had as a fan. Recall watching from the Orange lot as my car that was parked on State St. was being taken away on a tow truck prior to the UL game. Also had to get a former roommate out of the drunk tank after the LSU game and he had a great story about how they got to listen to the end of the game on a radio and everyone was going nuts in jail- high fiving, CATS chants, etc.
It's too bad we lost that Ohio game because it sent these uniforms away forever.
After that game a brown paper bag would have worked.
Dorian Baker saved us a few years ago from a similar collapse the way I remember it.

I bought season tickets for the first few years out of undergrad (2002-). They started around $100 for the season.
Definitely miss the good ole days.

-those FOP turds usually open with "can I speak to the man of the house ?"...my stock response "She's not here.". Years ago I responded to one with "can't talk rn I'm jerking off" and hung up. Dude got so pissed he called me back multiple times in a row...to which I queried "why do you wanna talk to me while im jerking off, you gay?" He was not amused.
^Sadly people fall for that **** or they wouldn't bother calling folks.
-the Ohio u game is my low point, followed by Jokers Vandy debacle.
^thank you lord Jesus for Mark Stoops and the "scam alert" notification on my celly.

-Internet people are the worst. Proof, woke idiots were outraged by Chris Pratt, playing a fictional Navy Seal, in Terminal List for whatever reason. I guess guns and an actor they think may have some conservative beliefs. #TOXICMASCULINITY!! Those same idiots' anti-woke cousins were equally outraged over a brief and easily forgettable interstellar lesbian couples' appearance in Lightyear. #MARRIAGEISBWMANANDWOMAN!!
Give it a rest folks, has to be just absolutely exhausting.
-Replaced my 6 year old Raybans with the same model. Just can't beat the classics.
-Speaking of sunglasses, WS met the owner of Shady Rays. One of the Rattermans from Louisville. Had no idea, that biz is blowing up, but I've not had great experience with the brand. Lens mirror finish was gone in like 2-3 weeks and had really bad glare on the inside.
-Dorian Baker seemed prime to be a superstar. He had a weird arc. Remember BBdk befriending his parents in NOLA.
-The blocked FG scoop and score last year was pretty f*cking loud.
-I'm owed an Alaska trip. Major bucket list trip. Gotta figure that out eventually.
-Hank, had a buddy talking about those self defense/ tactical courses you have taken. What's the contact info so I can pass it along?

-re: sunglasses...vendor gave me a pair of Costa Rincon w/glass lenses during my Miami trip a while back...they're incredible, but I only wear whilst fishing. Have a nice pair of AO aviators w/yellow lenses...relegated to shotgun related activities as the wife says I look like a 70's Era serial killer when I wear them.
^would love to have a nice "wayfarer" style...but as you may remember I *hate* spending "real money" on chinese/3rd world ****. Recs appreciated.
@grantbob ...you mess with the gear page at all?

NASSAU, Bahamas — The first thing most of Kentucky’s basketball team did upon arrival Monday afternoon at the palatial Baha Mar Resort was make a beeline for the on-site water park. Some of them even took swimming lessons in recent weeks to maximize their fun. But when the slipping and sliding commenced in paradise, Oscar Tshiebwe, the most fun-loving Wildcat of them all, was conspicuously absent.
The moment UK’s plane touched down here in the Bahamas, Tshiebwe called his agent and asked, “Where do you need me?” He was summoned to the exclusive beachfront Nexus Club, where bright lights, a green screen, multiple photographers and videographers, a makeup artist and several wardrobe changes awaited him. When he finally walked out of that room four and a half hours later, a few minutes tardy for a welcome dinner with Kentucky boosters, Tshiebwe was smiling (as ever) but exhausted. “That was kind of a lot,” he said.
For his teammates, this trip is about bonding and cutting loose and giving fans a taste of what’s to come with four moderately challenging exhibition games that begin on Wednesday night. But for the reigning national player of the year, who cannot fully participate in NIL opportunities unless he’s outside the United States because he’s on a student visa, this is truly a business trip. Coach John Calipari, who operates on his own time and expects everyone else to adapt their schedules accordingly, has made it clear that the team will work around Tshiebwe’s jam-packed docket this week. He has NIL obligations every day of the trip.
“He can’t do this stuff in the States,” Calipari explained to the team at their meeting inside his two-story luxury suite late Monday night. “Oscar, you weren’t there today, but we all get why you’re doing what you’re doing.” Point guard Sahvir Wheeler chimed in: “He’s getting rich.”
And yes, at long last, Tshiebwe is. With a blitz of photo shoots, ad reads and merchandise signings during this trip, Tshiebwe stands to make about $500,000 in seven days — bringing his total NIL earnings to about $2.75 million — a source familiar with his agreements told The Athletic. He did promotional work for four different companies before he even unpacked his suitcase Monday, which was intentionally scheduled as his heaviest day before games begin, and he stayed on the court for almost two hours after Tuesday’s practice to be photographed with a pizza box under his left arm and a basketball spinning on his right index finger. He wore a blue-and-white Santa hat in another set of photos.

Kentucky’s Oscar Tshiebwe gets down to NIL business in the Bahamas
Unable to fully cash in back in the U.S., the Wildcats' star is hoping to make $500,000 in endorsements during UK's foreign tour.

Good for Oscar. Plus, I assume he will be doing the same thing when they arrive in London in December.
