-We got them a nice wedding gift, but trust me, this couple is not worried about our gift. They're really laid back but it's a fancy deal.

-Had I been going with just WS I would have gone tux. Easily. But the two guy were going with were like, "HA, Hell no we're not wearing tuxedos are you f*cking kidding me?" Key was not rolling up in a sports coat, flashy tie, patterned shirt, ironic socks and loafers. Like I said from the beginning. Everyone is happy and I have a pallbearer suit finally so I can stop feeling weird every time I'm asked, which is really damn often.

-Schems are thoughtful people. We got tons of flaws but being great friends isn't one of them.

-Lol at Chadwick thinking he has total control over his girl's wedding. I mean you'll have input but if she wants a big deal wedding... that's what going down, papi. Considering our family is every bit as blue collar, salt of the earth, redneck as yours... they'll be fine if they need to throw on a suit and tie. Or they'll wear jeans and no one will give a touch. If we can get FCC's dad in a suit/tux anyone can.

-If I had it to do over, I'd go suits for the groomsmen and that would also be their wedding gifts. Only regret, although our wedding called for tuxedos. The custom bobble heads were pretty awesome I must say.

- Not saying I'll have any control- saying she's not a "black tie & gown" fancy wedding type of gal. She considers herself an island girl and is pretty down to earth with her tastes. It's one of the things I like most about her.

She went to boarding school because the Bahamian school system is trash- she didn't even know what a noun and verb were when she got to high school. TS.

- Waiting for the invite, de Knoct...

Yeah and I married a "cool girl" that is from the south end, drinks miller light, sing Hank Williams and prefers blue jeans over dresses. Don't see a black tie optional but those things have their way of turning normal chicks insane. Not all are like that, doh.

You brought up ankles. We could talk about arms too.


-Schems are thoughtful people. We got tons of flaws but being great friends isn't one of them.

So other than convincing yourself by saying it, what actually makes you "great friends?"

Of course UL makes a ton of money. So do the Bengals and every other collection of whores living rent free. Pure profit/no overhead.

  • A few other numbers from the five-minute shooting drill: Briscoe finished with 61 makes, Willis hit 54 3-pointers from the left wing, Monk connected on 58 3s from the right wing and right corner, including a stretch of 13 in a row, and Brad Calipari hit 55 3-pointers.

Good of NBC to already declare our squad elite 8 because they don't like how the pieces fit together and they can't shoot.

Is that so outlandish?

Those are valid concerns, IMO. I don't think that those flaws will come to fruition but I can definitely see where they're coming from.

Assuming Dauster said this? He knows his ish, for the most part.

It's Game 3. I know Cubs fans (fake and real) don't have a lot of experience with this sort of thing, but Jesus.

Like Dauster but his take on our D was weak. Plus- acting like Fox and Monk shoot like Wall and Bledsoe is ridiculous.

They are concerns but the 2010 team didn't have anyone who could shoot as good as Willis. Plus last year's team shot well and look how turned out.

Late night musings:

- An all black suit sounds like what I wore in middle school to confirmation or what we wore on game days dressing up before a basketball game.

Upstanding citizen, professional male suit options should be charcoal or navy based, or khaki in the summer for an outdoor function. IMO.

- Have been in 5-6 weddings over the last couple years, bought a tux as a group for the first wedding and have been rocking it for a few other wedding parties since. :fire::fire::fire:

Beats the hell out of renting one 3-4 time, and we got a nice group discount to boot.

- Was in another wedding this past weekend in Versailles while in town. Wore my first bow tie. Not the biggest fan, doesn't exactly suit my build. But I looked great anyway, so no worries.

Absolutely gorgeous Saturday, groom really missed the boat by not allowing us to sneak over to Keeneland while the girls "finished" getting ready for pictures for what seemed like hours.

- Sports gambol has really helped with me being away from the south and everyone who cares about college sports. At least I feel a little closer to all of my degenerate GYERO Gambol Syndicate.

- The political gambol scene is really intriguing. I can thank our twitter bookies for a few extra hundo on Crooked Hilary.

- Have official offers in Nashville and Lexington, though I think the Lexington job is going to be a pass. If Edgewood offers it'll be a difficult decision. Porch lights appreciated.

- Conference this weekend in Chicago...could be potential games 6 and 7 while there. Eeeeeeek. That city will be madness.

- Ran into Drew Franklin at Tin Roof last week when he had just gotten back from that Trump Rally. We have a few other mutual friends and chatted for a bit. Said they had some hilarious footage, and I just watched the Hey Kentucky segment. Just great folks up there. [laughing]

Shooting: Valid concern. Quite the concern. My hope is that passing and rebounding can win the day for us against zones.

Chemistry: TBD, but I doubt it. Typically Cal's most cohesive squads here have been the ones where the freshman guys were on board for a while, and if memory serves, that's what's happened with this freshman class. Plus there appears to be work ethic across the board.

Defense: I actually have a pretty good feeling about this one, you guys. Should be a pretty versatile group on that end of things. Briscoe's track record speaks for itself. Fox gets after it. If the reports are true, it sounds like Gabriel is ahead of the curve on that area due to motor/length and he can use those things to cover for mistakes.

My one other concern that wasn't mentioned in any of these previews was post play when Adebayo is out. I worry that he'll foul a lot and then there's a big drop.

For his part, Frankenberger criticized the amount of local and state subsidies used in the arena project compared with the proceeds U of L gets under its arena lease, which gives the university the bulk of some arena revenues, such as proceeds from private suite sales. U of L keeps 88 percent of those monies.

“Basically what you’ve got is a conduit by which taxpayer dollars are funneled through and out the other end and they go into the University of Louisville Athletic Association,” he said. “It’s a taxpayer scam.”


Get after'm, B Rax!
