Tuesday's Gone

I know an egregious rip off of the song.  This goes out to the egregious rip off of a TV drama "Sons of Anarchy" on FX.  We now have the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle gang in the small town of Olive Hill, KY .  I am not making this up folks.   They are far from  SAMCRO (Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original)  I think its funny they could not come up with an original name. I won't be surprised when the creators hit them with a cease and desist order for copyright infringements.  

Speaking of retreads, former University of Kentucky  Billy Clyde has hired as a graduate assistant and former UK and UNLV guard Derrick Jasper.   This relationship must be better than we though consider Clyde rush Jasper back from micro-fracture knee surgery with in six month instead of red-shirting him for the year.  Because of this Derrick now must try to getting into coaching instead of playing  like he could have.  

Lexington Herald Leader's Jerry Tipton must have had a slow news day and wrote this story to tie in the Mavs Dirk Nowitzki  to tie in UK and the NBA playoffs which start tonight.

Some interesting tidbit,I guess, in preparation of not working this NFL season NBC's Cris Collinsworth is taking an assistant coaching gig for Highlands Highschool (KY). Cris will be the receivers coach for the school and the pay is $0.00 , gotta give kudos for a former NFL great giving his time to his kid's school.

Music pic for the day:


Can't go wrong with the Boss. Glory Days is one of my favorite songs of his reminds me of my friends from highschool in good old Elliott County.   A shout out to the class of '96.  I know showing my age.   had some of the best times there not a care in the world until reality hits you square in the face as you grow older.  


Enjoy and have a good one

Hiatus

I know your probably thinking where you go , I went on hiatus on this cause never thought it would be this tough to talk about the things I like. However now I know why its tough to do these things.   I gotta give it up to the professional guys and gals that do this on a daily basis.   I last left on rant that was either incoherent or maybe spot on who knows.    I am going to stick with sports and maybe every now and then do a piece on the socioeconomic impact that we have in this country.

When I last did this the Reds were doing ok and were in first place in the division.  They have now slid all the way to fourth and the Cuban missile crisis is now in Louisville trying to get his grove back.   If they are going to make him a starter let him get that groove down there and not up here walking the bases loaded.

On to some  better news with the University of Kentucky basketball program.   Yes we lost Liggins and Knight early , and we lost Harrelson due to  graduation.   Coach Cal has reloaded and more than anything we scored a transfer point guard .  So maybe we will have some continuation at the point.

Music pick for this Memorial Day weekend:   Bill Ray Cyrus "Some Gave All"   I know Miley's dad is probably not the best pick but this song fits the weekend.









Now those of you who have a jonesing for basketball we still have the NBA playing  with finals involving the Miami Heat and the Dallas Mavericks.   It the Big 3 vs. Dirk and Co. , but really and truly those who are so against Lebron taking it to South Beach, well stick that in your pipe and smoke it.  Cleveland ownership has to be kicking itself in the rear for letting King James go and not giving him the tools and the team the tools to win.   The Cavaliers much like the maligned Bengals don't care about the fan base or championships.   Just about the bottom lime.

That is all I have for now have a great Weekend everyone and I wanna thank those who serve this great Country, and to those families that have lost loved ones who paid the ultimate price for this Country may God continue to bless you.
