i hate it but i'm uncontrollably drawn to it
It's come to this. I didn't want to go this route, but it must be done. It's the perfect trade - a guy that I need for a guy that you need. Two of your top offensive players are on IR. You have an abundance of talent at goalie. I'm sending not only the top offensive player in the league but also he's also the #1 overall player. And I'm throwing in my #2 goalie so you still have three dudes at goalie. End my pain of having to figure out which wanker from Anaheim to start as my #1 guy. Or decline the trade and let me move on with life.

First!
I think Phil is taking this hockey thing a little too seriously. Its not like its Fantasy Football or anything...
Fantasy sports matter. People just sign up and "forget" to set their lineups. They think this isn't important. Then you got others throwing around accusations of shenanigans. I think if it weren't for fantasy sports I would have jumped out the window at work at least a year ago

This is shaping up to be a great weekend, UL-WVU game tonight (Go Cards!) Vegas tomorrow and Saturday and then Borat movie on Sunday.
Cool. I just got a shout out on one of my favorite video podcasts.
Wow it is 2:00 and Douglas hasn't shared stories of molestation involving animals.
so i was fucking this donkey donkey-style (same as doggy style, except with a donkey), and I slapped the shit out of his ass. The donkey turns around and calls me a jackass. Without skipping a beat, I slapped him again and said 'look who's talking?' You can't take shit from your animal bitches.
Nothin' but class.
name's on the door
I actually did go out last night. It was pretty cool. But John shared way too much. Isn't that right John?
And Marc, what's wrong with Final Fantasy XII? To be honest, I'd rather be at work than watch Maury.
Hmm...Frank Cassel is awfully close to Frank Castle (the real name of the Punisher).http://www.cnn.com/2006/LAW/11/02/s...cted/index.htmlMaybe that's how he was going to fund his one man war on crime.
I would rather be at home spreading peanut butter on my balls...
Oh shit Jay, I forgot to tell you that xcalibur is in the game so i can't be pissed. It is a two handed sword
Ohhh...that makes sense. What about those other swords I was asking about. Masamune is in just about every one. It's also in other square soft games, like Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross.
Masumune is is, also the Ragnorok. The artwork in the guide that shows the swords are awesome.
Sweet. You just made my day, Adrian. Okay, that sounds a little gay.

Go Panthers!

Go Mountaineers!!!!
we have two signups from russian e-mail addresses from a dude named Vincent Vega.Isn't that Travolta's character's name in Pulp Fiction. Do I sign him up an account?
yeah, that's travolta's name in pulp fiction
I think Jay and I took a poll like this once while out. and the results were similar (although much less... like 100% of 4 people)http://www.math.psu.edu/tseng/H2Ojoke.html
All I know is I really like those freshman for UK.UK rolls 94-54!
GO CARDS!!!!!!JUST DON'T LOSE TO FUCKING RUTGERS...
C A R D S Cards Cards Cards!
D-I-C-E Dice Dice Dice?
Way to be a douchebag, Jerome.
just for the record, i will root for u of l from here on out to win the championship, only b/c i live in louisville, and it would be good exposure for the city, and it could be fun to see what a football championship aura feels like. and yes, if u of l wins out, they deserve to be in the championship game. at the same time, it would not surprise one bit to see the cards go down to s. florida or pittsburgh, and i do hold the belief that if they do make it to the championship, ohio state or michigan will absolutely destroy them.
No matter what, they are bringing exposure to our city. As long as they play well, I think we should be proud of them.
The Frankfort Cardinals?
Anyone going to be up for flag football this weekend? How's the hammy, Joe?SaturdaySome sunshine giving way to clouds. Winds from the SSE at 7 mph.High: 55 °FSundayMostly cloudy. Winds from the S at 6 mph.High: 57 °F
Well I am a 1/2 step closer to my prediction of UofL beating WVU and losing to Pitt.
so i fucked the shit out of an ostrich....
i really ruffled his feathers
twice?
twice what? i'm just trying to pump some life into the site today
Adrian, Louisville will always be my home.
yeah did you ruffle its feathers twice?
Who is the most dangerous person in the world...besides mehttp://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story...rss&feed=12
I've been dating Michelle for 6 years.... whoops.
that article's a crock of shit, i don't believe that for a second
I'm on the DL for football. Cuban is out too. The hammy isn't too bad, but I think it is best to rest and rehab. Cuban has class on Saturday and work on Sunday.Since I was taking the fireman written test today and the UL game was last night I simply said screw it and took today off. Sportscenter was fucking awesome exposure for the city since all they did was go back and forth UL football and Breeder's Cup at Churchill downs. Throw in WKU moving to D-I in football and the Lindsey Wilson game and the state had an all around good day.It appears from TV this morning it is almost a concensus that as long as UL doesn't fuck up they will be in the championship game. Nobody thinks they can do shit in that game and people won't be happy they are in it, but they think they will be in it if they don't fuck up.
If Louisville can stop a running QB like White with a solid RB behind him, like Slaton, then they have a good shot versus Ohio State. The only difference between O$U and West Virginia is that Troy Smith can actually throw and they have a defense that's worth a damn.
Was he drunk?http://www.usatoday.com/sports/coll...htm?POE=SPOISVA
What the ...?http://www.anchorbayentertainment.com/gah/
I have said it before and I will say it again. UofL's D is not championship caliber defense, however, their offense is very explosive. Basically for defense, these kids just try to throw themselves on the ground and trip up the runner or receiver, but it is nice to know that they don't have to stop the opposing team because chances are, they aren't going to be stopped either.Wow I don't know who I would root for if OSU and UofL was in the final game. I seriously hate OSU, but then again I am a UK fan.
And now ... Evil Dead: The Musicalhttp://www.evildeadthemusical.com
Jerome - that is great stuff right there and remember "Shop smart shop S-Mart".
Slaton is better then Pittman for OSU. I think Smith throwing to Ginn and Gonzalez would destroy our sad excuse for a secondary. OSU does have a better defense then WVU, but UL could still put up a lot of points against OSU. It would be a high scoring affair.
Well that is true, but remember Texas has the #1 scoring offense in the land and OSU put the clamps down on them pretty easily. If OSU overpowers UofL in the trenches this one won't even be close, it all comes down to line play for UofL.
One of the lexington DJ's I was listening to this morning threw out the question to his listeners "Is it okay, since UK football isn't going anywhere, to root for UL. Not in basketball, just football" I didn't get to hear any of the responses, but his cohost seemed to think it was okay. The guy was on the fence about it, but was leaning towards it being acceptable.
Adrian, are you coming out tonight? I have a disc of stagger pics for you. And videos.
if anybody is doing anything tonight give me a call. I believe b-mac, douglas, laura and I are still planning on rocking out.
Where are you going tonight, Jay?
Honestly, I want OSU and Michigan to both get upset somehow and let Florida and the Cards Play. THen i want LSU and West Virginia to play in a Bowl. I am just sick and tired of all these dumb fucks saying the Big East is Better than the SEC. So lets put the best of the SEC vs the Best of the Big East and settle the shit.
We could do that if there was a playoff, stupid BCS.
Adrian, I think everyone in the big east would agree with you.
Then again, I would also like to see Florida take on the Buckeyes. Fuck, there are so many match-ups that i would like to see. I agree with Brock, we need a playoff.
Would you rather have UT or UF representing the SEC?UT has a much higher explosive offense, but UF's defense is pretty damn good. I just want to see LSU light some people up, even if it is themselves.Why can't we have a Big East vs. SEC football playoff like we are going to have for basketball?
I think UT is going to get whoooooooped this weekend
I don't know where I'm going tonight, Adrian. We'll figure something out. If there is something you want to do, let me know. I'm up for anything.
UT and LSU at Neyland....UT barely lost to UF there and UF beat LSU. I don't think UT gets whooped by any means and if Jamarcus Russell doesn't show up, LSU loses.
I smell a wager coming on.
Nope no wager. I just respectfully disagree. However, if Jamarcus Russell is on his game, Philco would be exactly right and it would be very ugly.
NO, It should be:Florida Vs U of LLSU vs West VirginiaAuburn vs RutgersTennessee VS CincyArkanasas vs Pitt
UK and Syracuse? Consider that one a do-over from the bowl game that James Walen broke his arm in
I'm calling it now - Fighting Illini over the Buckeyes. The Juice gets loose.
I think UC should play Arkansas and Tennessee versus Pitt. The Razorbacks are streaky and I'd like to see that wild team take on the Bearcats stingy defense. Pitt is better than UC and Tennessee is better than Arkansas.
I don't know Philco, I think OSU might edge them out if Ginn has the best game of his life.

Brock - who did James White just get cut by?
Got cut by the Pacers, but just signed a 2-year deal with the Spurs. Indiana is dumb... they have to pay him 1.1 million and they waived him.

what the fuck, Brent ... Just tell Joe there's no tooth fairy or easter bunny now.
speaking of NOT being gay, it looks like we are on for Sunday at noon for football
Funny.http://msnbc.msn.com/id/15531249/?GT1=8717
White was the first pick in the 2nd round, but he got a guaranteed contract, so he got a sweet deal. Must be nice collecting two million dollar contracts without doing anything.I guess he knew what he was doing when he skipped his final exam last year, making him ineligible for the NIT games, and dicking UC over.Jihad did the same thing, but he ain't making 2 mill this year, fucking retard.If I ever see Jihad again, I'll refer him to Adrian for a swift kick in the ass.
Joe's idol being gay just made me spit Rum all over the computer. Classic.
Yes, its 1PM and I'm drinking... I'm Natty Sci, fuckin' back off, its after noon. Its not like I'm in Florida or anything.
UK 24 UGA 20!One more game and we are bowl eligible!
i like this article, but mainly b/c of the comments at the bottom:http://www.courier-journal.com/apps...519/1002/SPORTSThis dude that used to work in Lexington bashes the shit out of Pitino and Petrino after somebody else calls UofL classier than UK. It's hilarious.
That's great stuff right there Douglas.
Fuck, LSU, you almost let me down.
Told you it was going to be a good game Philco. And just think what might had been had UT's receivers tried to catch the ball at the beginning of the game. Also worth noting that UT was playing with their 2nd string Qb most of the game because Ainge got hurt.
Im out (hip) this week for flag football.

I just got back from Vegas yesterday and it changed my life!!! I love that place. I have so many stories, but unfortunately, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Well, i guess I can relate the story of one of my friends slapping girls with his penis in one upscale club. Nice!!
Wow. So stew, aren't you coming back to Louisville sometime soon?
Louisville is such a shitty city, just got this email at work:"JPMorgan Chase employees are invited to attend the free Ryder Cup preview at 4th Street Live, 12:30 p.m. today, Monday, Nov. 6. The first 500 people to show up will get a free limited-edition pin that says "The Cup, Louisville 2008." The first 2,000 will get a free miniature American flag. The pro golfer who will be captain of the American Ryder Cup team will be introduced. State and local officials will unveil a large clock at 4th Street Live to count down the minutes to the Ryder Cup. They also will announce plans for events during Ryder Cup week."I feel like a C-A-R-D-S chant will be appropriate in the middle of this Ryder Cup preview.
http://www.govdeals.com/eas/itmDisp...&acctID=237I think we need this
This site is dead today. You all missed a hell of a touch football game yesterday.
i heard about the football game, sorry i missed it, fatherhood called. and stew, i have some vegas stories that only you'd believe b/c now you've experienced it and you know how absolutely fucked up things can get there. that is truly a wonderful place
My arm is a little sore today from being all time QB yesterday.
How is your leg doing?
not bad, not bad at all. I think I am going to test it out after work today. Get a little run or bike ride in.
I got a cold.

Phil, can you post that intramural basketball video you were talking about
Intramural Glory Part 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOkF...ted&search=Part 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AosY...ted&search=Part 3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ci7L...ted&search=Part 4http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toPC...ted&search=
For the record, I'm kinda dissapointed that we didn't do that earlier. I've liked the idea of doing a "Wednesday Night Lights" show about flag football.
holy shit, i used to love m.a.s.k.
Hopefully, not to hurt Phil's talked-about TV reviews post... I really like Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. It is yet another great high-brow, fast-wit, multiple-character based "dramedy" from Aaron Sorkin. Although, Phil and I have discussed that most of the skits that show snippets of are not truly funny, which the show says that it is. However, the actual show itself, or the show-behind-the-show is the best part, which comes with great dialog and characters with depth. I read that NBC might pull the show from the air, which I hope doesn't happen because it is one of the best new shows in my opinion. and much better than 30 Rock (the other show about making a weekly sketch/variety show) Sorry Tina Fey. You're still hot to me though.
We need to do the a Natty Sci football Documnetary
Marc, you're in love with Tina Fey... aka Scarface?
if we did a natty sci football documentary, we'd have to have one camera on bmac at all times, especially when he's the qb in the huddle"I-I don't know guys, I think you should go long. If you don't go long, I think that's bullshit!"
i do like the studio 60 show too, marc. but yeah, it's getting cancelled, apparently people are saying it's too 'smart' of a show for the average viewer, which says a lot about the general population
I like that show too. It's not my favorite of the new season, but it is pretty good. However, as long as they keep heroes, I'm good to go.
Football would be interesting, but Intramural basketball had a lot more plot-lines:Shot Heard 'Round the WorldThe Truman IncidentGangs of BU: Thad LifeThe Bellarmine Massacre: Wrecking Crew BeginningBenedict Arnold GoodloeThe Whining Game: Starring CrushThe Brangers BoxoutBlue Chips: Crush and SchweitzerThe Cross Country "Out-Run the other team without shooters" EraOh My Knee DudeThe Chop-Block IncidentPunking Out EamonAdrian "Sebastian Telfair" Goodloe"Take it to the hole like a man, get swatted like a man"
I just don't find Studio 60 to be a good show. Watched it for a few minutes here and there but nothing happened that would keep my interest. When I watch TV it is as if I have ADD so stuff must be going on or something must be kind of funny.
For the record I wasn't benedict arnold....I just got tired of all the little bitching amongst everyone. Regardless you guys can call me the Karl Malone of BU Intramurals....I joined a good team and still didnt' win the jacket.

I think we can agree, both IM football and IM basketball had their fair share of moments.
Hell ya. I'd love to play basketball again.
I'd be up for basketball some time. As long as you all remember that I am worse at that than I am football.
I was going more for a documentary of
Oh...Who wants to watch a 2 on 2 with you as all time QB?
whoops didn't mean to say it yet....us playing football at seneca park in preperation for the return of natty sci football to which ever league we end up joining if we do.
Didn't we have a Natty Sci all girl basketball team with Michelle, the twins, and Katie?
2 on 2 football is significant because it shows how low we have sunk before our championship run. We were there for when we had to pick up a random accountant and go co-ed just to field 3 on 3 with an all time QB. We can look back during our championship celebration and say remember when we couldn't get more then 5 people to play. Look how far we have come.
la femme natty sci
I have a couple of people from working willing to play on Sunday. It's looking like another nice day.Let's try to get 7 on 7.
Yeah, la Femme Natty sci was Jennifer Beavin, Katie Payne, Michelle and Jennifer (I cant remember there last name), Michelle Bunger, and Sara Adams. It seems like there were a couple more. Did Abby ever play basketball? Or just volleyball?
I think Dawn played with them too.

One year anniversary of the greatest thing that has ever happened in the history of man kindhttp://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page...mp;lid=tab2pos2
I'm a big fan of the article just for him comparing banging cheerleaders to the goldbach conjecture. The article started strong but could have finished stronger. I've liked a lot of Wright Thompson's stuff on Page 2. He should write more.
That must mean that Phil is mad because I haven't traded him a goalie yet.
The goalie trade actually worked out pretty well for me. Manny fell apart last week (he got pulled in two games) and Christobol Huet is back in his starting roll and even picked up a shutout. So I got to keep the now #2 player in the league and picked up a goalie, who while not as good as Manny, is still one of the best in the league. In retrospect I should have realize that I was giving up too much when I made a trade offer in response to someone else's trade. I'm a real reactionary sometimes.
Oh yeah, so if anyone wants a goalie I've got too many, but they are too good to just drop into the waiver pool

that's an insider article and can't read it
That is crap
Main key hereThe Old Money Principle (2): Look up at the ceiling of your gym and count the banners. If your school has won three or more national titles in its history, you shall not rush the floor at any time. Schools affected: UCLA (11 titles), Kentucky (seven), Indiana (five), North Carolina (four), Duke (three). Your program has won big games before. Act like it.The Old Money Principle clearly puts the Indiana student body in violation of The Forde Minutes' protocol. Especially when the vanquished team, Illinois, owns zero national titles of its own. How terribly tacky.The Illini did not even qualify for a Minutes Protocol Exception (3), which states that if your august basketball program has hit the skids to a dispiriting degree (Indiana has missed the last two NCAA Tournaments), a storming is allowable under certain conditions:Condition A (4): The opponent is ranked No. 1 and/or undefeated at least halfway through the season (14 or more games). Illinois was merely ranked fifth in the ESPN/USA Today coaches' poll and already had a loss on the season.Condition B (5): Your august program defeats a top-five team on a suitably miraculous shot (25 feet or farther) at the buzzer, spurring spontaneous joy that overrides better impulses. (The Indiana-Illinois game went down to the wire, but it wasn't won at the buzzer on a prayer.)Condition C (6): You are so intoxicated that you cannot remember the opponent's ranking, or how many titles your school has won. But be forewarned that The Minutes will not pay your bail if you're the lone trespasser on the court and wind up in cuffs.Condition D (7): You see college hoops fan Ashley Judd (8) sitting at the other end of the court, and you know that the shortest distance to her is a straight line.
I voted this morning and my chad is hanging out of my jeans right now.
I missed how I met your mother last night. They showed a UK game here instead. Although I remembered this morning that I also get WLKY, and could have watched it. But I am a dumbass.
I'm saving my votes for after work.Remember Burket '08 for St. Matthew's City Council.
I'll buy a residence there just for that purpose, Joe. That will be our Natty Sci stronghold.
Just imagine a natty sci election day throwdown ya'll. That would be the best campaign headquarters ever.What is my platform, world domination?

i want to be the speechwriter....i would like to thank all the rejects and degenerates who moved to st. matthews just to boost my votes, all my neighbors who've put up with me and my delinquent friends thru the years, i'd like to thank all the donkey fuckers out there, give a shout out to the big guy upstairs, who somehow has kept us alive thru all the dumb shit we've done. and lastly, how could i forget natty sci, the biggest bunch of drunk geeks and dumbasses in the world, and under my control, these minions will help in my domination of first st. matthews, and then the world. thank you all for voting for me, and allowing me to rock st. matthews with my cock out for four more years!
st. matthews city council can't be that hard of a job
I guess you just have to make sure the laws coincide with louisville metro laws. Your first order of business? Make sure the St. Matthew's bars can sell booze all night long.
Hey Douglas, I need to get rid of one of my goalies and you need goalies. I'll trade you Christobol Huet for someone. You have Huet's backup on your team as your #2 guy so this is a bit of an upgrade
send me something, i have no idea who huet is or who is backup is, or what team he plays for, so just send me a trade and i'll talk a look at it.
what about legalizing prostitution?
a man of great ideas
my boy colin cowherd just said "of all the big east teams Louisville makes me throw up in my mouth the least." He did go on to say that if Bush wasn't hurt this offense would be the top offense in the country and that they have played well despite injuries and that they at least tried to get good teams on their schedule.
Colin struck up this debate, tougher conference:SEC FootballlBig East Basketball
here's a good article for you u of l fans:http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/colu...&id=2652449
Here's video of the Wisconsin game fiascohttp://thewizardofodds.blogspot.com...-exploited.html
Douglas, if you are trying to get Joe or I riled up about something we are probably the wrong people to be aiming towards. Neither of us think Louisville will be in the national championship game.
I liked the comment to where someone mentioned putting your whole damn team out on the field to recover the onside kick and let the clock die that way. although I guess it does increase the chance of someone having the ball deflect off them so at least 30 of them will have to be on "kill everyone" missions with the other 40 or so going after the ball
My mindset right now is that there is a shot UL can go to the championship, if they do go fuck ya that is awesome
and for what it's worth, the counter point to the article Douglas posted:http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/colum...&id=2651640But seriously, Louisville will play Boise State in their bowl game. If UConn, Pitt or USF get within 30 points of Louisville they'll drop out of the top 5.
Let's just hope that USF doesn't do what they did last year.
Douglas, trade proposed. Huet for Chris Pronger
Just ordered today for my office decor:"Hey, Jerome. What's in the box?""Seven foot black man"http://www.inflatabledefender.com/
My basketball team at work has been looking for a big man to stop beau zach smith
i actually agree more with the second article defending louisville to be honest, louisville is winning all their games, they're doing it handily, and they're doing it against the best schedule they can get. yes the schedule sucks, but they'll never have an sec schedule. if they win out, they deserve a shot to get demolished by ohio state/michigan
Phil - trades come down to making sure your trade benefits your team. You can give up the #2 player in the league if you have other players at the same position who can post comparable stats and if you obtain another player at a different position who just flat out gets it done better than anyone else you have then you arethe big winner.Must look at things collectively. In my opinoin, I'd rather keep my goalies and leave people drooling and playing the what if game, just like college football coaches and fans. There is no playoff in football like there are no trades from WG.It is what it is.
UofL might be able to beat those guys. Granted I do love to watch some defenses get after it, but with 11 guys on the field UofL might just be able to throw themselves on the opponents feet and hope they trip over them or something. That combination with their high powered balanced offense will make anyone play them honest and in my opinion will be a good game.
hey, i'm not complaining. The no trade worked out great. I would have gotten taken to the cleaners on it.
It's good Wes didn't take that trade I offered him that would've landed him Michael Vick (offered before the PIT and CIN games) for Julius Jones. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm drooling at how bad ass Vince Young is right now. It - most definitely - is what it is.
Gears of War is getting some good reviews. My copy should arrive tomorrowhttp://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/act...war/review.html
Jerome - I never saw your trade, but probably would have accepted because my QB situation is horrible.
I do have to say that I do like Julius Jones....L. Jordan and you can have because the raiders line is shit.
humping the harry statue not as cool:http://thefyc.blogspot.com/2006/11/...-oh-my-god.html
Wow this guy is ripping UofL and UK amongst others.http://www.sportsline.com/columns/story/9782655/2
Damn you Jerome - no I am imagining the "What if" if I actually subbed my players every week and had a QB to put up points. I mean shit, I may have won 3 games.
So....do u know how hard it is to fuck a monkey? Monkies are very small and very fast, so they're difficult to catch. I've found the best way is to put a banana in your pants to attract them, and when they come running, you hit them in the head with the skillet you're hiding behind your back (or baseball bat, whatever, that's not important). What is important, however, is that for the few minutes they're knocked out, you tie those fuckers down, cuz they don't stay out for very long. I've found it's also helpful to blow marijuana smoke in their face to calm them down as well. Now once you got them tied down in whatever position you want, you wait for them to wake up, and then you fuck them. It's not bad to do them while they're knocked out, but it's a lot more fun to fuck them while they are trying to wiggle free but can't because of the restraints.
This is a great article.http://www.sportsline.com/spin/story/9783470/1
38. I ask Tardio and Weatherholt when the last time Kentucky beat Georgia. Both are silent for a moment, thinking. Then Weatherholt says, "It hasn't been that long -- 1996, I think." Welcome to Kentucky football, where 10 years in a row of losses is the blink of an eye.

ha, ha, more fantasy hockey shit because I know you care!Douglas, what are you talking about your guys are better than Huet?Huet for the season is ranked #76 overall (17th best goalie). Over the past month he's 36th overall (12th best goalie). Over the past week he's 5th overall in the league and the #1 ranked goalie.Not counting your #1 guy - Kari Lehtonen who hasn't even started the past 3 games for Atlanta - your best is David Aebischer at #112, the 23rd best goalie. Over the past month he was the 121st overall in the league and the 29th best goalie. More importantly: He's Huet's backup (http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/teams/mon/depthchart). Ollie the Goalie is 172 overall in the league and is the 46th best goalie in the league for the season. I'm not trying to screw you here. You need goalies and I need more freakin' offense. But you do only have four with one listed day to day so trading for a defensemen was kinda silly. Hmmm, what would it take to move on up and take Joe Thornton (currently ranked #57 in the league) or Markus Nasland (#123) off your hands? They are both ranked pretty high at the beginning of the season but things haven't gone great for either one of those guys because of trades. But I understand if you don't feel like letting them go. That's why I initially asked for Pronger.
woohoo I passed the written portion of the firefighter test
Congrats Joe, you aren't a total retard.
Man, the Miami message board is going absolutely apeshit over Pata getting murdered.
Good Pat Forde article, finally, someone who lays out a good case for the Cards. Oh and he gives a shout-out to Flanagan's at the end.
Yeah, the shout out to Flanagan's was pretty cool. He gave a shot out to Beer Depot last year.http://proxy.espn.go.com/espn/colum...&id=2147048
Dan Rather on the Daily Show was freaking hilarious.I'm still laughing from him saying "Ran away with it like a Hobo with a Sweet Potato Pie"
Yeah here is an article to the whole Bryan Pata murder.http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/...tory?id=2653361
For all the baseball fans....Johnny Sain dead at 89.http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?sl...p&type=lgns
Forde has also done shout outs to Pat's steakhouse and the BBC.Also, it feels good to know I am not a complete retard. Cheap sense of satisfaction, accomplishment. I got to where I am not because I am retarded but by a total lack of ambition. Hardwork and dedication are for the weak.
Three different versions of Halo 3...wtf?http://www.gamestop.com/gs/halo3/
Daily Show mid term specialhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FcZJqqA2AI
Wow 3 different versions....I think I might have to buy Legendary.
Who out there is gonna do PS3? Who's buying wii? Who's getting both?
I'll probably get Wii and Xbox 360.Wii for: The Legend of Zelda and MarioKart when it is available. (In fact I might go buy the MarioKart for N64......It's all about the LDGS!
Supposedly Nintendo is shipping 4 times more Wii's then Sony is shipping PS3. I asked a guy at Gamestop what are the chances of picking up a PS3 before years end and he just laughed.I would like to get a PS3 and a Wii. The Wii seams more feasible and about half of the playstation price so i might just stick with the nintendo for now.
I will probably get a Wii at some point. I would like to get a PS3 down the line, only for FFXIII. It won't be for a while though.
On the lines of video games and me not being retarded, my 3 or 4 year old neighbor has this thing where if my door is unlocked he will run in my house and run around my house until i carry him out the door and lock him out. His 3rd grade brother chased him in yesterday and tried to get him out of my house until he saw my x-box 360 and and madden '07. The 3rd grader ran his mouth about how good he is at video game football and trash talked me and challenged me to a game so I had to defend my honor, and beat him 40-14. So I am at least playing madden at a 4th grade level. It is hard to not curse while playing video games. I substituted fatty for fucker. "catch the ball fatty" and "run fatty run" just don't emphasize my point like I want to.
Well done joe. That reminds me of the time wes and I went to gattiland, and there was a class of kids there (I want to say they were about 6th grade). Well wes and I proceded to get our asses handed to us at Tekken 3. At one point, as wes was putting in another quarter, the kid looked at him and said "You're just going to lose". Wes did it anyway.
My only saving grace was knowing that I had more quarters than he did. However, I guess when you only use 1 quarter and play all day long it doesn't really matter.
http://www.whas11.com/election/2006/race171.htm3,141 votes would get me on St. Matthew's City Council. I have 2 guarenteed votes, me and a guy I work with. 3,139 to go. Possible campaign slogansBurket - The man the legendBurket - Time to put the women and children to bed and go huntin' for dinnerBurket - Why wouldn't you?Burket - I'm doin' it for the ladiesBurket - What is the worst that can happen?Burket - Scandal free since '93Burket - St. Matthew's Party LiasonBurket - I won an X-box 360, god loves me
Burket '08 - Go ahead vote for the other guy, I will burn this place to the ground
A vote for Joe Burket is a vote for a St. Matthews Strip Club
Burket '08 - this is one job I will finish
Burket '08 - Whiskey dick and hell bound
Did anyone vote yesterday?Did anyone have a County Commissioner on their ballot?I am scheduled in the "A" district for County Commissioner (there are 3 districts A, B and C). I am interested if these positions even exist, therefore, I emailed metro louisville last night for information.
i'm pissed, fuckin' jerry is still our shitty mayor
My buddy Terry at work volunteered to help with my campaign. He assured me the 3 black votes in St. Matthews.
all u gotta do is promise to open a chicken and chittlins restaurant in st. matthews to get the black vote
Downard had the backing of the police, Fire and EMTs. Those are 3 groups of people I want to be happy. It just seems to make sense for our own safety and well being.
I am promising to fight to bring White Castle back
more people are concerned with u of l always being happy than the police and firemen i guess
One bad thing downard did was say how Louisville is currently a walking death trap the same time that it was voted one of the safest places to live
anyone have a problem with voter fraud and claiming you live at my house?
Joe, as much as we drink and crash at your house, it's not really that big of a stretch.
to further jay's point, considering whenever i answer the phone at your house, and it's never a surprise to whoever is calling that i'm answering, then yeah, it's not that big of a stretch
I believe if you have figured out the doorknob, answered the phone, mopped the floor, slept there multiple times or refilled the ice cube trays I think you have residency.
So instead of building a second story for your garage to make a bar, you could just put in a bunch of bunk-beds and call it the Natty Sci Dormitory.
Another one of my campaign managers just hit a brilliant idea. election day is 1 year and 364 days away. Do you realize how many people in St. Matthews will turn 18 in that time? My target is the 16 and 17 year olds.
Joe Burket - A man for all ages
not one of those old guys who will die in office
Supposedly Nintendo is launching Wii with 4,000,000 units. Sony is launching PS3 with 200,000 - 400,000 units.
I'm surprised Jerome didn't volunteer to go door to door looking for 16 year old girls.
because of my extreme patriotism, i will volunteer for that position myself
is this campaign a joke that has potential to go 1 step too far and I actually get on the ballot? I see it as a loss I lose nothing while a win I'm a fucking council person.
The title of this Post has eerily become a theme.
I just want a white castle back in St. Matthews
Last night at trivia Marcus "Social Studies" Brodie fucking destroyed everyone at Trivia. We only missed 3 points all night until the bonus question where we waged zero and still won by 20+.
just the 2 of you all
uh, tall laura was there along with Jen & her sister. But it was mainly Marcus throwing down the knowledge with me answering sports questions.But I think Marc could have gotten the baseball one. Hell, a retarded 12 year old girl should know it: Name the MLB Career Strikeout leader. The other one was a bonus that I thought was easy too: Name the four NBA teams that won a championship in the 90s.
bulls (6), rockets (2), pistons in 1990 and a guess on spurs in 2000
Why does it seem that every election, a dead person wins a seat??http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15622299/
spurs won in 99. A lot of people forgot about the Pistons or assumed that the Lakers won in 99 (they won in 2000). But besides thinking that the year 2000 fell into the 1990s you are correct Joe.
the season being split into 2 years through me off
ah yes, Turner is far better than I am at asking the questions to clear up any confusion.
A glimpse at the future: "Batting 7th, right-fielder, Rick Ankiel"http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/...tory?id=2654068
I think I found the political office for natty sci. This is the email I received back from Metro Government inquiring about County Commissioners.COUNTY COMMISSIONERSBY STATE LAW, ALL KENTUCKY COUNTIES MUST HAVE POSITIONS FOR A COUNTY JUDGE EXECUTIVE AND COMMISSIONERS. HOWEVER, SINCE MERGER (1/6/2003), THESE POSITIONS ARE IN NAME ONLY AND THE ELECTED OFFICIALS HAVE NO DUTIES, SALARIES OR OFFICES.If interested in the position in future elections, you would need to contact the Board of Elections at 574-6100 for details.Thank you,MetroCall
screw that I want no duties, but have an office and a salary
looks good on the resume, plus i bet u could pick up bitches with the line, yeah, i'm a city commissioner, how u like that shit? okay, if u insist we can go back to my place and do it in the city commissioner's house.
Can we start calling my house campaign headquarters?
not badhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/20...lbag/index.html
And what does every campaign HQ need?A kitchen couch and a stripper pole!
Jay and Marc - need a portable stage for New Years?
the bathroom is now renamed the war room
anyone know where I can get these cups?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gjm9...AMmHk&eurl=
Yeah, we definitely need a stage. I told joe that I would help build it. Also, if we are going to all chip in for a tent and catering, I would like to request equipment rental be thrown in there too. I am going to go to Doo Wop shop this weekend and check out some equipment. I don't think it should be that much.
If t-shirts (for New Years) are still an idea. I like the idea of planning them at least this month, so that we can have more time to change them around and find a better printer than the BUSM t-shirt printer. I still wear it. But it looks NOTHING like St. Matthews. NOR a mushroom cloud... I'm just saying.
So we got a lot to do
tshirts should be easy, don't we already know where to go? and the prices? as for the stage and bar, that's just us getting drunk and playing with power tools one night, pretty easy really.
We need it stable enough that Jay and Marc don't die
I prefer drunk power tools in the day
then it's just us getting drunk one day and playing with power tools, same principle, new time. and as long as they don't die before they play free bird it's cool, otherwise it'd be a real tragedy.
we don't need any new years tragedies
so who's inviting lisa?
u mentioned new year's tragedies so naturally i thought of her first
So is there still a possibility of a Thanksgiving Halloween Party?
I considered burning myself with that one but i figured I would leave it open for you all to take
it was really too easy, like i didn't enjoy it that much b/c it was just expected
douglas, i'll see if lisa can come, but joe has to promise to satisfy her or keep his pants on.

on a side note, u mentioned nick lachey, and i thought of jessica simpson, and i saw dukes of hazzard last night on hbo. the movie is horribly unfunny, but jessica simpson looks fucking unbelievable in this movie. u can basically fast forward thru all the parts with any dude in it and get to her, her body is fucking amazing in this movie.

http://fantasycongress.org/fc/League Name: Fake Government
I have to draw the line somwehere
i already watch espn religiously on weekends to keep up w/ stats for football, i can't watch cnn and msnbc to keep up with congress
So who is up for football this weekend? I'm sick - real sick - so unless this clears up quickly I might be out.
There is a reason they call me “the man the legend.”3 of my buddies and I left our building and crossed the street to 4th Street Live on our way to CVS for some Gatorade. The 4 of us passed these 3 girls and I kept walking thinking nothing of it. One of my buddies asked, “Did you know that dark haired girl?”“No, why?”“Apparently she wanted you dead.”As they walked by their laughter died and the dark haired girl’s face turned to rage and she stared me down as if she was plotting my death in her head.My buddy said, “I didn’t know whether to punch the bitch in the face or claim I didn’t know you. She looked ready to throw down if we didn’t have numbers.”Terry exclaimed, “Stay away from me you are going to get me killed. I got a wife and kid at home.”I really have no clue who this chick was, but my office reputation has completely changed. This story is slowly spreading through the building.
One guy just texted me "She's got 'scary stalker chick' written all over her."
She sounds kinda hot
she didn't look to bad from the back. Good enough for my buddies to check out.
Awesome. Earlier, Amber and I had a 20 minute conversation about masturbation, which turned into a 10 minute conversation about gay guys. I'm not exactly sure how the segue went.
Please tell me it had nothing to do with you masturbating to gay guys.
No, they weren't really connected it was just a strange change of topic.
And I'm out this bitch!
Wait, jay just came out?
Work survey:How many drinks of alcoholic beverages do you have in a typical week?(one drink = one beer, glass of wine, shot of liquor or mixed drink.) drinks How would you describe your drinking habits? Have you ever felt that you should cut down on your drinking? -YesNo Have people ever annoyed you by criticizing your drinking? -YesNo Have you ever felt bad or guilty about your drinking? -YesNo Have you ever had a drink first thing in the morning to steady your nerves or get rid of a hangover? -YesNo I think I should lie it isn't anonymous
I think I just broke a rib sneezing. It was worth it.
I put on average 6 drinks a week after consulting Chris. This survey said I am a light drinker and overweight. Stupid surveys.
I'll be in town this weekend, so I could round up a couple of my brothers for football if everyone isn't completely DL this weekend.Otherwise, I'd be up for throwing 'bows on the Seneca basketball court. I'm curious to see how "Roid-rage" Payton plays now that he's a freak of nature offensive lineman now.
I'm on the DL still. I can be a body but an ineffective one. I can jog striaght lines and throw.
6 drinks a week? I think I pissed out more alchohol than that in a given week back in the day.
Last week was easily in the 20s. I have some slow weeks here and there to average things out.
I got a question.Since when did we start dressing our pilots like Dark Helmet?http://news.yahoo.com/photo/061108/...7042a36e4008fd4
Joe - you might want to lie so they just don't make you go to AA meetings.
The Best quote from Wes's Link from KentuckySportsRadio.com“Now, I hate Louisville in more ways than Paris Hilton likes to take the D.”
With all that being said, I hope Louisville stomps Rutgers.
and we unleash the secret weapon, bionic legged Michael Bush
i was watching cold pizza at lunch when i was working out, and they had ray buchanan (ul alum) and bill bellamy (rutgers alum) arguing for like 5 minutes solid about why their school's gonna' win. bellamy's only real argument was "we got the sopranos behind us, you really think u of l wants to piss off the sopranos?" (James Gandolfini graduated from Rutgers too) Ray Buchanan kept responded you all mean nothing to us, you're a blip on our radar screen on our way to the BCS.
it was just funny b/c on nationally televised sports shows you expect arguments with merit, you know, breaking down game film or defensive schemes or something from people who know what the fuck they're talking about, and they had bill bellamy (comedian) going up again buchanan (ex-nfl player, but didn't know shit about u of l or rutgers) arguing with each other like some nine year olds. What made it funnier was they let them do it non stop for like 5 minutes.
Ray Buchanan's arguement should have been, "are you still on that show Fastlane?" Is Buchanan on UL Ray's brother?
Bobby Buchanan is Ray's younger brother
I thought so.
Yeah you would have thought they might of had 2 people who atleast knew football.
not lee corso
buchanan knows football, he just wasn't acting like it, he was brought down by bellamy's child-like behavior and resorted to a "who's got the bigger dick" argument.
I know he knows football, but in order to have a decent conversation the other guy needs to know. I wasn't saying he didn't know, just makes you wonder why they didn't get someone from Rutgers who knows football.
Prediction: UC 17 Rutgers 14, ending their undefeated season.
Prediction: UC loses
Actually I don't know really. Brock does Rutgers play UC at home or is Cinci coming into their stadium?
Just to give ideas of visuals since Joe wants to build a bar.http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...amp;btnG=Search
We've reached new low. People are now submitting google search results...
Yeah normally we are the google search result.
cartoons kick ass:http://www.joesportsfan.com/column.php?storyid=277
You know what also kicks ass? The Rutgers!
It's about timehttp://sportspickle.com/features/vo...08-paterno.html
come on guys, i don't need a slow day today. i won't even heckle you UL fans about how your season is virtually meaningless now, just come on out to play on natty sci
Rutgers comes to Cincy... and the Bearcats apparently know how to play defense. I'll make a firmer statement after I see how they perform in Morgantown this Saturday.
Well Brock, I wouldn't be surprised Cinci did beat Rutgers...Cinci has a pretty solid team and played the CARDS pretty well.
Brock, I hope Cincy gets matched up with an SEC team in a bowl game. I really do.
Wait a minute...you have to make it to a bowl game first. What is Cincy's record?
that was a well deserved 50 minute break. Stare at my monitor for an hour then wander downtown looking for a good breakfast for almost an hour. "Down to Lunch" has damn good sausage biscuits.
Question:Say if West Virginia beats Rutgers and that would make Rutgers, WV and UL with one loss in the Big East. How is it determined who will play in the BCS bowl for the Big East?
I don't think anybody knows
i heard this on espn this morning, the team with the highest bcs ranking determines the big east champ
That makes sense. I thought it was kind of funny today when a louisville fan came into work this morning and said "Oh Well, it is basketball season now." I was like dude, you still have a chance at damn good bowl game.
it doesn't matter, ul is so hyped up for the championship that anything less than that is still a disappointment
Ignore if you guys have seen this before, but a HS player leaps over a defender to score.http://www.break.com/index/high_sch...s_defender.html
Too bad Gay jumped offsides, who knows what would have happened then.
I said the same thing today. I can focus on basketball season now. The BCS is still an option, but whatever happens it is a let down.
Fucking State University of New Jersey
why'd you hang up on me last night joe? what kind of world is it when a guy can't heckle his friends after his team loses the biggest game of their program's history?
UC is 5-4 with losses to O$U, Va Tech, Pitt, and UofL. They just have to beat UConn to be bowl eligible. Wins over WVU or Rutgers would just be gravy. This is all considering Notre Dame doesn't dick the Big East over and snatch up one of their bowl bids because they couldn't qualify for a top tier bowl.
It was you? I just heard C and had enough.
Rutgers for a national championship
yeah, it was me, you hung up right after i started the chant and i was laughing my ass off in the car
What's hilarious is that Rutgers and Boisie St could go undefeated, and everyone else loses 1 game, and neither of the only two undefeated teams would have ANY shot at the title. The BCS is fucked up.
Boise St. doesn't matter, they have the weakets schedukle in the NCAA.
Brock that isn't entirely true. Yes 6 games gets you bowl elligbile, however, they must go to a bowl game that has a Big East tie in. You cannot make a bowl game as an at-large bid unless you have a winning record.
there's supposed to be reps from the almighty chick-fil-a bowl at the uk-vandy game this weekend. i think it's probably a given uk should finish w/ 7 wins, but if we could somehow manage to beat TN and end up w/ 8 wins, UK would actually go to a pretty solid bowl game.
The Big East has 6 bowl tie-ins, so pretty much any team in the conference who is eligible will make a bowl. Unless Notre Dame steals one. UC will be ahead of USF regardless, and with Pitt playing WVU and UofL still, they might slip past them too.
I wouldn't take Vandy lightly...they have the best WR in the SEC in Earl Bennett and Vandy did beat UGA at UGA.Douglas - there are actually going to be 5 reps from different bowls at the UK-Vandy game. Peach,Outback,Liberty,Music City,Independence
Doesn't the head of the outback bowl have ties with UK
jerome will be on later to explain why the site keeps going down. It is actually Microsoft's fault I believe.
I just nearly fought 2 guys at work. One guy who is an OSU fan said Jeff Brohm shouldn't have yelled at Brian like he did. Another guy said Jeff Brohm and Hunter Cantwell are both better then Brian Brohm will ever be. One of them went on to say its just too much pressure for one guy.
CEO of Outback is a UK grad
Thats why you should host on linux and apache philco...Joe, is that Oregon State University or Ohio State university. Just kidding.
The correct format for the two universities is this:Oregon State U = OSUOhio State U = O$U
I'd say Oklahoma state, but it is Ohio State and he lives in Okalona rocks out to def leppard and sports a full fledged mullet
Oklahoma State = O&U
Oregon State is simply referred to as the Beavers
O$U can fucking suck it. I hate O$U with a mother fucking passion!
I've always been partial to OkSU for oklahoma state.
the Beavers have put out the likes of Chad Johnson, Steven Jackson and Ken Simonton. Whats not to love?
I tell you what i hate with a passion. It is those God Damn lemon flavored starburst. I mean what the fuck.
Houshmandzadeh also went to oregon state
Props to Phil for his display of Bengals knowledge.
even better
I thought it was THE OSU
I looked it up and I even spelled it correctly. But it's more of college football knowledge than anything. I have no idea why I can remember Houshmandzadeh went to Oregon State but can't remember the chief justices of the supreme court, but whatever.
those alumni and the 2006 college world series champs. What isn't to love about the beavers?
I'm not sure if he counts, but Mike Haas also went to Oregon State. I think he's on the bears right now. I wish the Bills would pick him up.

Ok, now I've heard it all. My roommate just said "If I had AIDS, I'd find someone else who had AIDS and fuck the shit out of them."I'm speechless.
I think that's like standard AIDs policy though. It's kinda like the "if I go to prison I'm not going to wipe so my ass is covered in shit and no one will want a piece of it" theory.Speaking of being raped, the little strange woman that lives 5 doors down from me who already kinda creeps me out just came by...at 11:40pm. Now, I've been playing Gears of War and there are lots of screaming and other shit going on (cool game btw, I give it an A-) so I figure maybe she wants the volume turned down.Oh no....she just stands there rocking back and forth for about 5 seconds until she pulls out and envelope and hands it to me. It seems she got some of my mail and opened it up. But it looks like she tried to glue it back together and then when that didn't work she taped it back together. And I thanked her and she stood there and then turned around without saying a word. This game + Tylenol cold already has me a bit on edge so weird little women knocking on my door certainly won't help me get some sleep.I think she's like the sister of Dr. Werner Klopek. Who the hell brings someone their mail they accidentally opened at freaking 11:30 at night? I think she plans on killing me.But on the plus side it's a check for $240 from my insurance company because I accidentally paid my home owners insurance twice. Woohoo!

working saturdays sucks ass. and for what it's worth, i have made that exact same aids statement before. actually i went further than that and said i would go pick up women with aids and fuck as many of them as i could without a condom
it's not like you're gonna' get a disease or anything
it appears WVU has decided that they can beat Cinci without using an offensive line...
Craiglist story, true or not, that guy's fucked up.
Agreed.
Any activities this evening? Or do I just go to Wicks.
I'm still sick so I think the highlight of my day might be when I grabbed my sweatshirt out of the dryer this morning.
UofL might not be out of it just yet....Auburn was blasted at home today by Georgia.
I'd like to do something tonight, but I have some stuff to do tonight so not really sure.
38-20 UK over Vandy with about 3 minutes left to go in the game. If the score holds, UK is going BOWLING!!!!!! (Yes that is big for UK's program).UK also missed 2 FGs in the first half, Keenan Burton scored on a kickoff that was called back due to a hold on the other side of the field and Woodson ran a TD that was called back. We missed out on another possible 20 points.
Rich Brooks Coach of the Year
Might be deserving. UK Football is #3 in the SEC East right now....I think.
No, maybe Schiano if they go undefeated
I must admit I do like Schiano and I believe he will be the Coach of the Year.
He doesn't need to go undefeated, but 12-1 with a bowl win if he wins the Big East is pretty good.
I don't know who to cheer for.I hate the Gators, but my feelings are the same for Spurrier
Louisville will drop out of the top 10 this week. My guess is they'll go to the Texas bowl and play Oklahoma State.
this game reminds me of one of my favorite games of all time, Crimsonland:http://cognitivelabs.com/word_shoot.htm
If WV beats Rutgers, who goes to the BCS game for the Big East.Louisville still has a shot to play someone better then Oklahoma State.
I think Texas vs UL would be a good BCS game
The media and the coaches are going to drop Louisville so quickly that people heads are going to be spinning. I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see them out of the top 15. Louisville's only win over a team that doesn't suck is over WVU, and they are in the "Big Least." Louisville will fall behind both WVU and Rutgers in all polls leaving them SOL in terms of tie breakers. The gator bowl is a possibility, but I doubt they'd pick Louisville over another team seeing as Louisville went to the gator bowl last year.
Yes, but the same holds true for WV and Rutgers. I'm curious how the polls will look this week. WV was 10, Rutgers was 15. Does UL stay ahead of WV and does Rutgers jump both of them?
I think it'll look something like this:Ohio StateMichiganTexasFloridaUSCCaliforniaNotre DameAuburnArkansasWest VirginiaRutgersLSUTennesseeBoise StateLouisville
I can't see rutgers below WV. I would flip those 2
you may be right. Also, I should probably flip Arkansas and Auburn too (assuming that Arkansas wins tonight)
Well, with the Auburn loss the drunks at CBS think that Louisville will be playing ND in the Sugar Bowl.http://www.sportsline.com/collegefo...wls/predictionsBut I think they are underestimating how far Louisville will drop in the polls.
I didn't notice you had Auburn up there. I think they are out of the top15.ND vs UL would be a great matchup with Quinn vs Brohm. A high scoring game maybe they both go pro
I think most voters will keep Auburn ahead of WVU and Rutgers because Auburn's had some big wins this year.
I think it's bull Boise State might go BCS. With such a weak schedule 82ndhttp://cbs.sportsline.com/collegefo...tball/polls/117
Man, Mitchell is playing pretty well for the cocks. I'd like to see Boise State at least get a shot at someone such as whatever shitty team comes out of the ACC

Actually, I think UT and Louisville could go either way.
UK is actually #2 in the SEC EASThttp://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/standings
Here is a crazy thought, CBS didn't check the standings of conferences before they made predictions. UK can't finish any lower than 3 in the SEC EAST and I think 6th overall.http://www.sportsline.com/collegefo...wls/predictions
Georgetown Zoning Law Says House Has Too Many Residents - Residents Form New Religion to Satisfy Zoning Lawhttp://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dy...6111001978.htmlI thought this was a pretty funny story, until I read that these guys were living in a 2.4 million dollar house that some dude's dad bought them. Now I think these guys are shiteheads.
Brock - with Navy being eligible Big East only gets 5 teams.http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/...tory?id=2636227
Phil, I don't know quite why you're dropping Louisville so far. Keep in mind that Texas lost to Kansas State, who Louisville beat easily without Brohm, and then Auburn getting destroyed by UGA who it turn was beaten by UK who also lost to UL. I doubt that a 2 loss Cal team will be ahead of Louisville and with the state of the Big 12 this year it would surprise me if Texas was ahead either. I was really hoping the Cocks would pull off the upset yesterday, but oh well.
In the minds of the voters Louisville has beaten nobody. The only quality win they have is over WVU, but all that win really did was prove that WVU was a fraud (hense them dropping seven spots for losing to the #5 team). I just don't think many voters felt we should be #3 to begin with so in their heads they aren't moving us down from #3, they were moving us down from #9 or #10.And still, losing to Rutgers is seen as much, much worse than losing to Georgia. Do you think UK would have stormed the field if they beat Rutgers? Probably not. It didn't matter that this was a Georgia team who had at that point beaten nobody, had already gotten beat by freakin' Vandy, and was in complete disarray - it was still Georgia.And in the mind of the voters, none of them know that Louisville even played KSU, let alone that we beat them pretty handedly without brohm. Nor will it matter our "WAC" defense shut KSU out until a fluke run as time ran out gave them a touchdown and KSU moved the ball at will against Texas. Saying we should be ranked higher because we've beaten so and so it the equivalent of saying some girl should date you because you are smarter, more handsome and would treat her better. All that really matters is who she IS dating.A lot of people made a big deal about how far Louisville has come because we managed to get into the top 5. A true test on how far you've come is what happens when you lose. And I think the voters of the South and Midwest are pretty damn eager to remind Louisville who really runs the show.
well, i was wrong. we only dropped to #12. Ohio State (62) 11-0 1,5742. Michigan (1) 11-0 1,5133. Florida 9-1 1,3814. USC 8-1 1,3735. Notre Dame 9-1 1,2736. Arkansas 9-1 1,2487. West Virginia 8-1 1,1138. Rutgers 9-0 1,0829. LSU 8-2 1,05410. Wisconsin 10-1 92811. Texas 9-2 92712. Louisville 8-1 88413. Boise State 10-0 83014. Wake Forest 9-1 72415. Auburn 9-2 72116. Oklahoma 8-2 71117. California 8-2 580 I'm really surprised that Wake is still behind is. REALLY surprised. Boise State could go either way. I figure the voters were waiting to fuck them too.
Do you think Boise can hold their own? I haven't seen them play at all this year so I really don't know.
Boise State is just as good as any team in the ACC, Big 12, PAC 10 or the Big East. I think Arkansas, Ohio State or Michigan would whoop them though. Jared Zabransky is playing pretty well now that he's not appointed the greatest QB in the land. Ian Johnson can also play some ball.It's hard to say. They haven't played anyone and won't play anyone all season long. And after the Georgia debacle everyone will assume that if they did play a team of value they'd fall apart.
I want to see a rematch between USC and Arkansas. I don't think the score would as lopsided as it was at the beginning of the year.
Louisville only fell to #10 in the AP poll. I'm shocked that Texas is behind them, but there are a lot less Southern and Midwestern writers than there are football coaches.For the record, here's my Top 25 with my brilliant insight included for your reading pleasure:1) Michigan - undefeated, big win is over Notre Dame2) Ohio State - undefeated, big win is over texas, which we know now isn't that great. Also beat Penn State and Iowa...both out of top 25 now3) Rutgers - undefeated, big win over Louisville who might suck4) Arkansas - only loss was to USC without McFadden, the best RB in the nation5) West Virginia - only loss is to Louisville because Slaton was hurt6) Notre Dame - only loss is to Michigan, haven't beaten anyone7) Wisconsin - only loss is to Michigan, haven't beaten anyone8) Louisville - only loss is to Rutgers, haven't beaten anyone besides WVU9) Florida - barely beat UT, Georgia, Vandy and the Cocks. Lost to shitty Auburn team10) Boise State - undefeated. Best win 28 pts over OSU who beat USC11) USC - No reason they shouldn't be undefeated besides apathy. But they got plenty of that!12) Wake Forest - big win is over, uh, BC. One point win over Duke along with giving up 14 to Liberty isn't inspiring13) LSU - most talented team in the nation. Too bad all the players are dumb as bricks, unmotivated and only care about themselves. Voodoo will fit right in14) Auburn - beat florida and LSU, but florida and lsu aren't exactly tearing it up out there. Lost to a terrible georgia team15) Oklahoma - got jobbed at Oregon, only other loss is to Texas. 16) California - Arizona isn't that bad17) UT - plagued by injuries18) Maryland - only losses are to top 25 teams19) BYU - only losses are to Arizona and BC20) Hawaii - Colt Brennan is a stud. Only losses at 'bama and at Boise State21) Nebraska - lost to OkST23) BC - NC State got lucky against them, other loss is to Wake22) Virginia Tech - only losses are to Georgia Tech and BC24) Oregon - Washington State loss looks pretty bad...25) Clemson - only losses are to BC, GT and VT. Of course, the ACC hasn't beaten anyone either so losing to BC, VT, Clemson and GT beating each other might be the same as TCU , Utah and Air Force beating each other up too
The AP poll doesn't mean jack shit...
ap pool doesn't mean shit, but the harris poll is usually pretty close to it.and for what it's worth, now that the harris poll is out Louisville is #10 in it too
Reggie's little touchdown right there wasn't too shabby. Nice hops.
Now THAT'S how Andrea Kremer should be shot on an HD broadcast - foggy lens, raindrops refracting light and distorting the picture. I can get used to this. Now, if the NBC cameramen can just keep focus during the damn game.

So we were talking yesterday about renting a tent (and musical equipment) for GBITT. How much would people be willing to throw in? I'd be willing to go pretty high.
i honestly won't be able to go very high at all
So the old man brought me in two VHS tapes today with UK games on it. 1) 1986 UK vs. UofL game that UK wins 85-51. I want to see this game because I can't remember Chapman and how good that kid was in college.2) UK vs. LSU where UK scored 86 points in the first half.
Is Natty Sci covering all the expenses or are we going to set a cover charge for random people who show up? Honestly, last year there were more people that I didn't know then I did know. People that don't bring attractive single females or booze should be expected to pitch in. Expenses are tent, music equipment, food and booze. Chris and Brock are no shows this year at GBITT. I will provide some food items, the keg and the house again. I will see if Joanna will cover jello shots. Other then that everything else is open. What do we need? I think the plan is to move my deck into the tent for the stage. I prefer figuring this all out before the last minute. I think T-shirts is an expense that we can do away with. That cost can be put to better use. Lets get some ideas flowing.
I agree with the t-shirts Joe.First of all - we need to figure out how much a tent and what are the associated costs with the musical equipment.
tent and heater I believe was $450ish
i think that should be the first order of business as well, find out the estimated cost of everything first, and then prioritize. where are chris and brock gonna' be?
Chris will be at work. Brock had a wedding or something.
how was fireman training? did dodson call you on sat? he called me, it's amazing how many people forget i don't go out on saturdays unless it's a special occasion. he didn't get in to cop school, i think he got jealous cuz i told him u were about to be a fireman
The music equipment will be 40-75 dollars. It will be more than that if it is rented for a month, which I might do, because it will be hard to get it closer to New years. I figure (if this is okay with you guys) we can put the cost of a weeks rental into the total budget, then however much more it costs for the month, I will pay that.
My finger still hurts from when I jammed it yesterday.
Dodson did call me. Fireman practice sucked. The course I have to complete in under 11 minutes to be considered for the position I finished in 8:56 not running in the last 2 weeks and not pushing too hard because of my hammy. Not pushing too hard still kicked my ass. I nearly vomited and I have never vomited from running in my life. 8:56 was a decent time. 7 minutes is what firefighters do at the end of their class before graduation from the firefighter academy. The course consisted of:1) Run up and down 7 stories of stairs with a 60 lb hose2) run 100 feet out and 100 feet back with 80 lb hose3) Run up and down 5 flights of stairs no weight4) Repeat step 25) Repeat step 36) Repeat step 1 no weightI need a competitive time. Under 11 gets my resume and times looked at and possibly an interview, guarantees nothing. There are like 500 people left competing for 20 spots. Plenty will be eliminated in December when we do the actual runs for the physical exam. Not sure how many interviews there are.
I am no where newar being a fireman yet
That was supposed to say nowhere near
500? no shit, i had no idea that many people would be competing. how did your time compare to some others?
8:56 was a decent time compared to the people in line around me. that wasn't that many people though. A lot of people I am not worried about. I am curious how much a college degree can mean. I think simply a competitive time, not great time will get me somehere because of a college degree. I don't think there were many college degrees out there trying to be firemen. However, a lot of people have family and friends that are firemen and a lot of people are volunteer firemen or EMT's or firemen in smaller areas that want in the city of Louisville. Those people might be able to trump my college degree. Also, some of the people with college degrees got them from EKU in firefighting. Bastards. It should be competitive.
Not sure about minorities and women, not sure whether being a white male will hurt my cause.
not to be sexist, but I can't imagine too many women that could pass that physical test
If we were hot girls we could stage a car wash to raise money for GBITT. who wouldn't give money to hot soapy chicks stretched over your car working for monetary contributions?Oh, I don't play the lottery, but if one of you does... and wins. You ARE EXPECTED to pay for the tent and a few other things. I think that's fair. Well, maybe not fair. But it would be cool. What about if we organize a pyramid scheme or Nigerian Internet scam to pay out by GBITT? just kidding.
Since Douglas "won't be able to go very high at all" financially, how about douglas has sex with 100 fat chicks for 10 dollars each? He can raise $1000 that way.
I'd even be willing to pass Douglas the naming rights. Something like:"GBITT: The tent that douglas pitched"
That sounds reasonable
Are we above selling the naming rights to fund the party? Any potential sponsors? I don't really see "Chase presents: GBITT '07"
i'm down, u guys supply me the bourbon i will need to intake before proceeding with the deed, I'll take care of the rest.
i'm not above doing fat chicks in the name of GBITT
Hell, I'll do fat chicks AT GBITT."I know you will Reggie Ray"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kGPGbaF7NE
I don't know why you would need bourbon, douglas. Pussy's pussy.
Jay, you remember that next time you see that chick we saw at Wet Willys on the dance floor. Yeah you know which one I am talking about...
contrary to popular belief, i do have standards
not all pussy is created equal
That made me think of this...."I have a dream that one day this pussy will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all pussy are created equal.""I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Lindsey Lohan the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of pussy."Was that inappropriate?
i would be disappointed in you if it was appropriate

sweet I got a job interview working for the government on Thursday.
Is it bad using your office phone in your cubicle to set up a job interview?
Chris, Cuban and I decided on Sunday that someone needs to have a wedding on New Year's Eve in the tent. Any chick that agrees to that is what we like to call a keeper.
A government job doing what? If you can find a girl to marry me, I'll marry her in the tent. I have absolutely no problem with that. Does anybody know a person who would officiate the ceremony.

I hope to God that USC does not get to play for the NC this year. I am pulling for Arkansas to beat Florida for the SEC title and then get to play the winner of OSU-UM. I hate the PAC 10, and I am tired of USC fans. They remind me of a girl that just lays on the bed during sex and does nothing. They walk around the malls in their Reggie Bush or Matt Leinart jerseys like the world owes them something. Most of them couldn't even name all the other BCS conferences, they are just fans because it's the trendy thing to do-but then that's pretty much what California's about.BTW, I met a pretty cool Louisville fan at Dave and Busters (like Jillians) a couple weeks ago for the West Virginia game. It's a pretty small world, he was from St. Matthews and we were both at the same bar in Irvine watching the Cards.
Fuck the SEC
I say if OSU and Michingan is a close game, let the two fuckers play again in the title. Every other team has looked like shit compared to them.
Everyone talks about the biggest travesty would be if Rutgers, god forbid, actually played in the national championship. Yeah, I think they'll lose. I think anyone who plays OSU is going to get whooped.But say OSU beats Michigan by 14, and then beats them by 21 in the rematch. Rutgers plays, oh, USC and whoops them. Whoops them like 42 to 6. I know it probably won't happen, but if it did I think that would be a lot worse than if Rutgers actually played Ohio State and we learned for certain that Ohio State remained the sole unbeaten team in the nation
Okay, about to head to class. Show up to Trivia, and help us... plan out GBITT, talk about fireman training, make your favorite B-mac joke, talk about Stagger, get a free beer perhaps.Phil will be there around 7:45. I'll be there around 8. Get a group and be there around 7. I'm just saying. Do you really need an excuse for a Monday night excursion?
BCS officials are going to do everything possible to avoid a osu-mich. rematch. for one it's not a good matchup for a championship, they play every year. second, not as many fans would be willing to shell out huge amounts of money to travel with the team to watch them play someone they play every single year. it's all about the $.
Phil, who is everyone? (I am referring to your post about the Rutgers)
Jay - a friend of mine is a reverend in Beer Church, therefore, he technically has the power to marry people.
Douglas - I have to call bullshit on that one. The best rivalry in college football (aside from Yale-Harvard) and you don't think their fans will shell out the money to watch them bring home a national championship?That is just crazy talk.

Top Ten TV bandshttp://uk.tv.ign.com/articles/744/744722p1.html
The SEC should never be questioned ever:With talk of how the conferences rank consuming the national media today, the question over the most powerful league simply isn’t one. Top to bottom, the SEC is the premier league in college football. End of discussion. You don’t see undefeated runs that often simply because the schedule is far too difficult. There are very few if any sure wins in the SEC: just ask Alabama, Auburn and Georgia. Every week is a battle and just about every time you go on the round you play in front of upwards of 80,000 people, sometimes close to or more than 100,000. No other conference can compare to that. If Florida wins the remainder of their games and finishes the year with just one loss, they should play the winner of Ohio State and Michigan for the national championship.http://www.southernpigskin.com/page...;cat=exclusives
Jay - I am not sold on Creepy McCreepsalot as a good guy. I don't think he is.
But I completely agree, Heroes is an awesome show.
Whatever Worm. We all know that the Big East is the Best Conference in college football and in basketball. Rutgers , Louisville, and West Virginia should be 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Every Big 10 team and SEC team is overrated.
After what has happened over the past week I think we should all shutup and let the fucking teams play some football and beat the shit out of each other on the field and then clean it up after the games are played. Florida has not impressed me yet. The 2 best teams at this point probably are UM and OSU but will it prove a national champion if they play a rematch. What if one wins the first game and the other wins the rematch. That will solve all of our problems.
Big Ten and SEC are so overrated. OSU or Michigan do not deserve to play in the national title. I think it should be Rutgers (best team in the best conference) vs Boise State. That would be a great national title. I would actually fly to Glendale to watch that game
Where is all this sarcasm coming from? I think it is safe to say that the SEC is better in foot ball than the Big East. However, the Big East is working to replace the teams that left, and I think we can agree that the big east is trying. But yes, in a head to head match up between the SEC and the Big East, the SEC would probably sweep it. However, any given day, one team can play better than a "superior team".
Adrian, on your way to Glendale, why not stop by Texas and watch the cards play since U of L is currently projected to be in the Texas Bowl or Sun Bowl. By the way, Adrian you're a bitch
Jay, for the record...She is a keeper!I am just fucking around guys. I could honestly give a rats ass who the best conference is. I still think Louisville is going to get a BCS bid. Then again Notre Dame does have God on their side so they will probably get a bid.
And Church, you are so Gay!!!!!
No offense, but it is pretty bad in a sports conversation that Jay is making the most intelligent comments.I'm still pushing for the UL at large bid10 BCS teams, 6 conference affiliatedBig 10 - OSUBig East - RutgersBig 12 - TexasACC - Who caresPAC 10 - USCSEC - FloridaNotre Dame guaranteed at largeBoise State guaranteed at large since they are ranked higher then the top ACC schoolMichigan at largethis leaves 1 at large. Assuming Arkansas loses to Florida and WVU loses to Rutgers, the only other team ahead of Louisville is Wisconsin and the BCS wont take 3 Big 10 schools.
but we will still find a way to fuck it up
One website is projecting a UL-Wake Forest Orange bowl. COuld be interesting. BCS looks to come down to Ohio State versus the winner of Notre Dame-USCAdrian, you are the gayest of the gay. Have a smirnoff ice
USC still has to play California and UCLA. Most likely USC will win but I think Cal will put up a good game in the Coliseum. I agree with Joe for the U of L at large bid. I mean hell, there are 5 games this year so louisville should get a spot just as long as they don't fuck up at Pitt.
Pitt did lost to UCONN, but the first thing is to avoid screwing up against USF again. Another question, which bowl is UK slated for?
UK is going to the Fiesta Bowl! j/k they are going to the Gator Bowl...ok so maybe not...I honestly don't know.
Florida isn't impressing me either on the offensive side of the ball, but their defensive front line is probably the best in college football.Of course, they keep finding ways to win which is the important thing.
Best defensive front line is LSU or Michigan.
Who is the best college QB?a. Troy Smith, OSUb. Brady Quinn, Notre Damc. Chris Leak, Floridad. Brian Brohm, ULe. JaMarcus Russell, LSU
Best college QB Troy Smith.Most successful NFL QB out of the bunch Quinn or Brohm
Joe-what the hell is that supposed to mean? No I'm just kidding, I'm retarded when it comes to sportsAdrian-Nice!
Best overall quarterback would be Troy Smith. Best passing QB would be Brohm.
Best overall is Troy Smith. Most impressive performance- Russel in the first half against MSUMost likely to play on Sundays- Brohm and Russell, Smith may not play QB in the pros and do a Matt Jones
Woodson has been receiving a lot of praise as being the best QB in the SEC this year.Here are how his stats compare.http://msn.foxsports.com/cfb/sortab...;dir=descending
a. Troy Smith, OSU - good college QB like Eric Crouch and Tommie Frazierb. Brady Quinn, Notre Dame - great familiarity with NFL offensesc. Chris Leak, Florida - 6 feet tall and lack of mobility might hinder himd. Brian Brohm, UL - Has the tools of an NFL QBe. JaMarcus Russell, LSU - great tools cutback on mistakes trying to do too much
I feel bad for Leak because he has had to learn a new offensive scheme almost every year as a gator. Pretty pathetic at a top football university, however, Chris Leak is limited by his height and speed, he isn't even as tall as Rex Grossman who was 6'1"ish and doesn't have the speed to run an Urban Meyer spread attack. Kudos to UM for adapting his spread offense to fit his personnel....unlike UK defensive coordinator Mike Archer who refuses to change his defensive scheme (I hope Archer gets canned this year, however, Brooks is too damn loyal to him so probably not going to happen).Brohm is a very good passer when he has time, however, I must admit I was less impressed with his pocket presence against Rutgers than ever before. Even as a freshman he had more pocket presence/awareness than that game. They simply got in his head, which was definately more due to the defensive line not picking up any rushers, however, you could easily see the effects in the 2nd half by observing his mechanics - poor follow through form and not getting his feet set. I am just kind of wondering why Cantwell didn't atleast get a chance?Troy Smith is a Vince Young with touch. That dude is crazy fast and has a freaking cannon for an arm. And it helps having Ginn and Gonzales as receivers and Pittman to get the yards between the tackles. Very complete team and OSU has to be the hands down favorite to win it all.JaMarcus Russell probably has the most talent of any of the college QBs, however, as Phil mentioned previously everyone on LSU is dumber than a box of rocks and doesn't give a shit about the team. This team should easily win the national championship, but won't.It's hard not to like Brady Quinn because that is the kind of guy anyone would want their sister to marry. He will be in the NFL and he has all the tools to be a very good NFL quarterback. Notre Dame doesn't quite have the offensive balance that UofL has which hurts Quinn but all in all he is good.
Brohm is our QB. You don't see the Patriots taking Brady out of the game against the Colts when he threw 4 picks. You have to stick with your man. That is what killed OSU last year. Justin Zwick was not your man. Stick with Troy Smith.
Joe - I can understand that.
You can't blame Brohm for the Rutgers getting to him. UL's offensive line sucked ass and didnt' protect. I agree with Joe and stick with Brohm. If there was any QB that could probably have scrambled and made plays out of that game, it would have been Michael Vick since the fucker is like a gazelle.
i'm actually very excited about uk's game vs. TN. If they win, they have a legit shot at a new year's bowl, they'll be second in the SEC East, maybe 3rd in the conference. And they can play balls to the wall against them b/c their season is already a success in the eyes of the fans adn media. as for brohm, he doesn't have any big game exposure on the road, that's why rutgers got to him, that's why rutgers got to u of l in general. jurich won't do it though cuz he doesn't want losses, he only wants big teams to come to louisville.
No big teams want to come to UL because a 40,000 seat stadium gives them no money. Screw the home and home with UL there is nothing to gain from it.
exactly
hence stadium expansion should improve our strength of schedule
Focus on "should".
Adrian - if you can read you will see that point was addressed."They simply got in his head, which was definately more due to the defensive line not picking up any rushers, however, you could easily see the effects in the 2nd half by observing his mechanics - poor follow through form and not getting his feet set."
I heard a UL-LSU home and home is in the works and they have already inked a deal with Georgia
u of l's already in huge debt b/c of papa john's, it's not making as much revenue as originally anticipated, probably mostly in part b/c for yrs. they couldn't sell the place out, and now they're trying to build the arena downtown, which still pisses me off how the city can help to build an arena for fuckin' pitino and UL, but they won't for an NBA team, how fucked up is that?
the georgia deal's not 'til like 08 or 09, i haven't heard bout lsu. UK's game vs. tn is gonna' be on tv by the way.
Yeah kickoff is 12:30
http://www.courier-journal.com/apps...NEWS01/61114020A group of Louisville bars and restaurants filed a lawsuit Tuesday, claiming that Metro Government’s new smoking ban is unconstitutional, the group’s lawyer said.The ordinance, scheduled to take effect next summer, bans smoking in most work places except for Churchill Downs.The suit by the Louisville Metro Hospitality Coalition claims that the section of the ordinance exempting the race track violates a clause of the Kentucky Constitution that prohibits legislation that benefits small groups of individuals or businesses without good reason, said Mike Hatzell, the group’s lawyer.Without good reason - not wanting cancer is good enough for me. I think we should form a group to sue smokers.
It's my birthday, I'm gonna go stick my dick in a ferret's ass.
It is a ban everywhere but tobacco manufacturers and Churchill Downs. The ban doesn't include the Downs because people think if smoking was banned there everyone would cross the river and hit up the casinos instead. Honestly, after the ban is passed I bet you can still go to a bunch of places that won't care if you smoke and it won't be enforced.
to be honest, if i were a bar owner i'd be opposed to it, not b/c i like to smoke every now and then, but when lexington did their ban a while back, apparently a bunch of bars lost a lot of revenue, some went out of business
The reason is that Churchill downs brings in a shit ton of revenue for the city, where each individual bar does not. However, if they ban smoking at Churchill downs, I don't think it would effect their business much. I don't know though.
The thing about the lexington bars, there is a bar I go to occasionally during the week there, and it is always packed. And like joe said, on the last stagger, a lot of people were still smoking anyway at one of the bars. The ban made little difference there.
Underage drinking is illegal and I still went to plenty of places with you all without a fake ID and I am willing to bet there is a ban on beastiality but baron and douglas still find places to get their fixes.
Church - you and Adrian can go to South Africa now.http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061114...ca_gay_marriage
some rope, night vision goggles, and a midnight trip to the zoo takes care of that.
leave the penguins alone, they are too cute
also, if you're gonna' fuck with the big animals, you need to bring them a hefty bag as well......
I probably should have left out that last comment, certain people know what I am talking about.
Thanks for the news Wes, but I heard your brother is already on his way to South Africa to marry Brian Fetter
Hey Adrian, how is your sister and her gay relationship?
Douglas, your comment on Lexington bars is bullshit. The smoking ban actually INCREASED revenue. The bars that closed are just usual crap college bars that change every week.By the way.... Ohio passed a statewide ban on smoking EVERYWHERE! December 7th, I won't have to bag up my clothes and burn them after going to a bar!
i have no idea, that's just what i heard awhile back when louisville first started talking about it, so u might be right. i was just relaying what i had heard.
Nice one Joe!
Too bad only you, jay and chris know my reference and chris doesn't read the site.
Things are going great for me thanks for asking.
There are lies, damn lies and statistics.One can make statistics say any damn thing they want.
I don't know why I am excited about this but I am.UK ranked #37 by CBS Sportsline. Strength of Schedule at #14http://www.sportsline.com/collegefo...olls/119/index2
"One can make statistics say any damn thing they want." For example, in the summer time ice cream sales increase. Similarly, the number of reported rapes increases in the summer months. Therefore it can be concluded that ice cream consumption causes rape.
I buy that, people get crazy when they eat ice cream.
Hey, the bitch had it coming.
You know, joe, your chances of public office decrease with each post that is made.
How many citizens of st. matthews will search the internet for me? Also, if someone runs a hate campaign for st. matthews city council more power to them.
I kind of meant beyond city council. Like mayor of St. Matthew's.
you raise an interesting point. If you search my name in quotes on google you first have to get through some guy and his submarine goat locker, family tree stuff for not me, bellarmine baseball, running results then you start hitting natty sci results. I feel as if this shows my well roundedness as an individual, it is all about moderation.
while my competitors are searching for dirt on me on the internet I'll be shaking hands, kissing babies and making the world a better place.
besides, if someone wanted to get in a mud slinging contest with you, we could come back with something pretty good. even if we have to lie. but by the time the lie was discovered, the election would be over and natty sci would already be reigning supreme in the st. matthews city hall
Don't worry Joe - I am not above taking down the opposition. We can make it like the movie Richochet. Drug them up and get a hooker and take pictures.
i like the 'can't hardly wait' version, where we strip the competition while they're out and pose them members of the same sex. of course if you're going up against a women, this could just be for fun too.
Great idea Douglas, and we get to throw a kick ass party too.
You can never go wrong if you rock out "Can't hardly wait" style.

Always a good day when someone makes a Richochet movie reference... or what my dad calls Rik-O-Chet.That was one of John Lithgow's greatest roles... besides Mr. Henderson, when he punched a fuckin sasquatch in the face and told him to get the hell out of here.

Nope not a truck load of booze...just the bottle of Old Forester filled with booze that sits on top of Brown-Forman downtown.
Now I'm pissed! I am now obsessed with finding a clip of John Lithgow clocking Bigfoot. End my pain!
I need to post more often apparently.
yes you do
DJ Gallo had a good article today on Page2: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page...ge=gallo/061113excerpt: "After watching the Chargers score 42 second-half points Sunday in Cincinnati, I finally figured out why Chad Johnson tends to overstate his abilities and, therefore, regularly fails to deliver on his predictions: He practices all week against the Bengals' defense. No wonder he believes he is unstoppable. Six days of the week he's catching passes with no one anywhere near him and running untouched to the end zone. But then on Sundays everything changes and he's forced to deal with having defenders in his general vicinity. And this unfamiliarity with being covered is probably the same reason Chris Henry shrieks and drops to the ground every time an opposing defender gets near him."
This is the same Bengals defense that got 16 picks against the NFC North last year. I does help to actually have your two top draft picks at linebacker actually playing, Thurman (can't stop drinking and driving) and Pollack (broken neck).
Just announced that Jeff Bowden steps down as OC of F$U.

A hot cheerleader that's willing to put a cadet in a headlock during a football meelee:http://www.deadspin.com/sports/coll...hold-214770.phpI like the black cadet that gives her the "good lookin' out" head nod at the end. Nice touch. You all can now make witty "Heroes" jokes now.
Hurstborne lane is a bitch. First thing I would do would be to legalize prostitution. That way, all the hookers you now see on Hurstborne lane would be legitimate.
it'd be more fun getting stuck in traffic if u had a hooker in ur car
if you have a hooker in your car you can ride in the carpool lane.
if u had a hooker in your car, she could give u a BJ
My first job was in Bluegrass Industrial Parkway. It takes 45 minutes to get from Bluegrass Industrial Parkway to Taylorsville Road (which is maybe 2 miles) at 5pm.
Good find Philco - I laugh at that fag for being put in a headlock by the cheerleader.

I...I...I don't know douglas. I kind of like sticky dick.
the b-mac stutter is catching on even more now. I accidentally did it on Saturday at this party and Julie is fascinated by it and made me repeat it. She said Joanna does the b-mac stutter pretty well.At this party Saturday night some random guy recognized me from little league baseball and we started the glory days talk. He asked me if I remembered Brian Mcallister from little league. i made him tell Laura the legend of B-mac. Douglas, you know the stories. Do you remember Kyle Blackman? He went to Ballard and played at St. Matthew's with us?
My dad dated Kyle's mom for awhile, who, by the way, happened to be my 8th grade math teacher. That made for some awkward dinners. Yes, we've met. What party was this? What all did he have to say about Bmac?And Jay, that was a great late response
that's right he told me that. it was some people laura graduated high school with like joanna's sister. he was telling the stories of bmac throwing the ball over the backstop in a game from the center field fence, breaking a kids elbow pitching, being banned from pitching, law suits for pitching and so on
i have never heard any of these "legends of b-mac" stories, but they sound fascinating.
Who is this Brian Mcallister fella you speak of?
when I was 11 bmac was 12 and we played on the same little league team coached by my dad. B-mac was the same size back then as he is now. he threw hard and had no control. He would hit 2 kids a game walk a couple and strike out 18. He broke one kids elbow, cracked a helmet and all kinds of other good stuff. It got to the point where my dad had to quit pitching him because of threatened lawsuits by parents of opposing teams. When he pitched and hit a kid parents nearly would start riots. One parent started climbing the fence to storm the field. He played short stop for a while but that didn't last long because no one wanted to catch him at first base. He moved to center field because there was no where else to put him. He tried to throw a guy out at the plate from the fence and missed the cutoff and threw it straight over the backstop.
these stories are still legendary around st. matthews little league, everybody knew bmac as the quiet kid who had a gun for an arm he couldn't control. people would get in the batter's box like john kruk did against randy johnson years ago, in the very back corner, b/c they were afraid of getting hit. st. matthews had to literally ban him from pitching
they tried to turn him into a pitcher at ballard but he still couldn't control it
Whatever became of Jason Osborne? He was supposed to be a phenom and was going to lead U of L to the NCAA title.
B-mac still has a cannon for an arm. You put him on a pitcher's mound and he throws about 55 mph. Something goes off in his head that won't let him pitch.
I heard JAson Osbourne hangs out in front of a liquor store on Preston
Shit. He was Mr. Baskteball, at least he could be playing CBA ball.
Didn't Isaih run the CBA into the ground?
Brandon Stockton was Mr Basketball too
Isiah ran it into the ground, but I think it still exists in some form. There are several minor league basketball leagues that have sprung up recently.
Thanks, douglas. I'm awesome at late comebacks.
Not only is there a CBA, but they just signed Pittsnoggle. http://www.cbahoopsonline.com/
The CBA website has an entire section in their history labeled "The Isiah Thomas Years," which basically paints him to be an incompetent prick. Man, that guy has ruined his reputation so much he couldn't sell a used car in French Lick.I could have swore the old Louisville Shooters and Louisville Catbirds were members of the CBA, but it doesn't list them.
Ok, the Shooters were part of the GLOBAL basketball association (GBA)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global...all_AssociationThe Catbirds WERE part of the CBA, in fact Flip Saunders coached themhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louisville_CatbirdsStupid CBA site doesn't list them in their history.Thank God for Wikipedia.
I just saw a jerome Harmon reference
Yeah, I went to a Shooters game back in 6th grade and he was playing for them.
what about our kentucky colonels of 2004 with antwan barbour, anthony epps, luke whitehead and so on
So basically you guys are telling me that BMAC couldn't hit water if he fell out of a fucking boat?
The best pitcher in Little League was Adrian. A shutout was expected each time he took the mound, a no-hitter wasn't a surprise and I believe he even through a perfect game once if not twice.
pretty much, you should know that, he definitely can't hit what he's aiming for when he's on the love boat, that's for sure
That's great stuff Douglas. I set you up and you spike it down.
Shake and Bake.
his sister was hot back then too
you leave me open, i'm dunking it. shake and bake. and his sister is still hot, of course she's really probably only hot b/c she's bmac's sister and it's fun to fuck with him about it.
based on the number of people that I've met that know of b-mac only as "the kid with the hot sister", I assume she was ok in her day. Or she wasn't shy around boys.
she's honestly not a slut or anything, she went to my high school and she was just Ms. Popular, you know, the head cheerleader, dated the popular athletes, etc.
I seriously think it is a mcallister gene to quit growing at the age 12.
Yeah their bodies stop growing after age 12, our maturity stops growing at age 12.

earlier, I referred to bobby perry as a kentucky recruit when I meant ravi moss was from hoptown, KY
I am already dreading the ass pounding Kentucky is going to take from Florida.
don't sleep on 'em like that, maybe the first game, but not the second, uk will play 'em tough.
You are probably right. Hopefully Randolph morris will play like he did vs Uconn last year in the tourney. He held his own versus those freakish centers.
Yeah Bobby Perry is a Durham boy.
I want UCLA in the Maui Tourney. That game will tell us what we have.
Does anyone want to do anything for the game tonight?
UCLA lost a lot. Mainly Jordan Farmar
I honestly want to see this Derek Caracter guy. I dont know if i already posted this but a co-worker went to the Georgetown game and said Caracter is the best freshman big man ever. I asked him if he was better the Tyler Hansbrough and he said yes. I call bullshit on that but i could be wrong.
Joke of the day.A guy from Kentucky dies and goes to Hell. He had been a horrible man all his life. The devil puts him to work breaking up rocks with a sledgehammer. To make it even worse, he cranks up the temperature and humidity. After a couple of days, the devil checks in on his victim to see if he is suffering adequately. The devil is aghast as the Kentuckian is happily swinging his hammer and whistling a happy tune. The devil walks up to him and says "I don't understand this! I've turned the heat way up, it's humid and you're crushing rocks. Why are you so happy?" The Kentuckian, with a big smile, looks at the devil and replies, "This is great! It reminds me of August in Lexington. Hot, humid and a good place to work. It reminds me of home. This is fantastic!" The devil, extremely perplexed, walks away to ponder the Kentuckian's remarks. He then decides to drop the temperature, send down a driving rain and torrential winds. Soon, Hell is a wet, muddy mess. Walking in mud up to his knees with dust blowing in his eyes, the Kentuckian is happily slogging through the mud pushing a wheelbarrow full of crushed rocks. Again, the devil asks how he can be so happy in such awful conditions. The Kentuckian, with a big smile, looks at the devil and replies, "This is great! It's just like April in Kentucky. It reminds me of working out in the yard with spring planting. It reminds me of home. This is fantastic!" Now the devil is completely baffled. He is more determined than ever to make the Kentuckian suffer. He then makes the temperature plummet. Suddenly, Hell is blanketed in feet of snow and ice. Confident that this will finally make the Kentuckian unhappy, he checks in on him again. He is again aghast at what he sees! the guy is dancing, singing, and twirling his sledgehammer as he cavorts in utter glee. "How can you be so happy? Don't you know it's 40 below zero?" screams the devil. Jumping up and down the Kentuckian throws a snowball at the devil and yells "Hell is frozen over!! This means the Wildcats are going to a Bowl game!!"
Yes they did, however, they are still #5 in the polls so that should be a good way to get UK to vault upwards if we beat them and win the Maui.
Adrian - D. Character is suppose to be really good. He is a big guy was like 6'8" and 300 pounds who can shoot the rock. Not sure if he is the best freshman big man ever because I think Brandon Wright (freshman at UNC) and Kevin Durant (freshman Texas) and not to mention Greg Oden (freshman OSU-Buckey) all would have been top 5 NBA draft picks this year.
supposed to be below 275 now. I read in a magazine he should be one and done.
what is bill walker, mayo's friend, status
enrolled at Kansas St, will be eligible 2nd semester...like Ramon Harris will be for UK
If D. Character is 275 I am 200
From the Lexington-Herald.Smith all but announced that Ramon Harris, the Alaska Class 4A Player of the Year last season, will join the Kentucky team on Dec. 15. First, the player must be declared academically eligible by the NCAA Clearinghouse. Smith called that process "more a formality."Harris, a 6-foot-6 player, averaged 16.3 points, 13.1 rebounds and 3.5 blocks while leading Anchorage West High School to its third straight state championship last season."Very athletic," Smith said of Harris. "Long. Wing player."Harris could play near the basket or on the perimeter, a quality made even more valuable by a UK roster that includes only 11 scholarship players. If he's declared eligible, Harris could enroll and join the team by the end of the fall semester, or Dec. 15. He cannot practice with the team until then.http://www.kentucky.com/mld/kentuck...ky/16015206.htm
Ramon Harris has been the Alaska player of the year 4 times (won it each year) and this kid is suppose to be a real sleeper. He is 6'6" with a long wingspan (7 feet or so) and he can jump out of the gym. He is also a good 3 point shooter.
This is such a bunch of bullshit. Kentucky gets away with so much shit when it comes to eligibility issues. UC has 2 foreign 6'10" guys that can't play because the NCAA has been dragging its feet for months trying to find out if someone on one of their AAU teams got a hamburger bought for them. The players never got paid, but if ANYONE on the team gets paid or compensated, they get classified as a professional and receive suspensions. Yet... Randolph Morris can go into the NBA draft, hire an agent, and still come back to UK. The NCAA is so corrupt.
Cincy just has the wrong colors on...
Um....it is a technicallity of a rule but UK finally had one in its favor. What about the Kansas booster that that gave the forward $5000 what happened to them. 4 game suspension.Morris did it legit and got a 14 game suspension. Granted I am just glad he is back, but come on it isn't apples to apples. Didn't that happen to UofL in the past about a player ruled inelligible? Not sure how it works, but I think it is slightly more complicated than you are making it out to be Brock.Anytime the NCAA can bring down UK they do. We got a hose job on the fucking football probation and scholarship reduction and when other programs have done the same they receive a much lesser penalty..why is that? When the head of the NCAA Investigation Commission was asked why didn't Bama get the same penalty as UK, his response was to the extent of acknowledging UK got hosed.

If anyone wants to do anything for the game tonight hit me up.
what're u talking about doing?
btw, it's one month until the The Reindeer Romp 4k for those that are interested...
Man must be a full moon out tonight. UK and UNC both get played tough and Kansas falls to Oral Roberts
That, or some other explanation.
Well I know UK struggled in the 1/2 court offense tonight and they had no rhythm. The good thing is that the hard nosed tubby defensive team is back. UK was blowing the game wide open in the second half and then Morris got a phantom 4th foul. I say that because Morris was standing next to Peavy and Peavy fell down on the ground without Morris touching him....really bogus. Instant replay verified this. So after that UK struggled in the 1/2 court and the fact that we turned the ball over way to many times. The positives is that at one point UK was shooting 18% in the game and they managed to claw ahead at the half by 4 points. The other good thing is UK played a verteran mid major in Miami (OH) and they pulled it out without Sheray Thomas and Jared Carter (which normally wouldn't be much but Woo is hurt too so our front court is thin) and Miami OH is similar to an Iowa team in they play very physical. Also Morris exerted himself enough to get a double double in limited action (see fouls above) and Perry Stevenson ended the game with 7 blocks.Negatives were turnovers turnovers turnovers and unforced fouls.
Add UCLA to a team being played tough...down by 3 at the half.
Oh and OJ Mayo signs with USC today (or yesterday) whatever.
It is going to be another long and painful year for the cats.
I just saw on espn that Kansas got beat.
Oral Roberts beat Kansas after losing to Loyola Marymount earlier in the week. I think one of Eddie Sutton's sons coaches Oral Roberts
UK should be okay, give them another game for the freshmen to get acclimated. When is the Alaska guy eligible
uk will be fine, when they were passing and moving the ball, they did well, it was when they tried that one on one bullshit that rondo made famous that they fucked up and couldn't score. The defense looked pretty good, the freshmen looked very good for their first collegiate game, a lot to look forward to there, plus there will be more depth when thomas comes back and then carter, and then when the alaskan guy is eligible Dec. 15, so fouls won't be such a concern
Jayhawks go down on - I mean -TO Oral Roberts
Yeah UK will be fine. Shots weren't falling tonight, but they really clamped down defensively. Jodie Meeks asked to guard Peavy in the 2nd half and didn't do all that bad...UK held Miami OH to 4 fg out of 25 attempts in 2nd half. Jodie is listed at 6'5" 206 pounds while Nathan Peavy is 6'8" and 227. Jodie held his own with him pretty well.UK will pressure more this year, however, you have to hit shots to set up the press.
Church - I believe Ramon Harris gains eligibility December 15th.
check the last sentence of my last post, you re-posting bastard
where the fuck is everybody?
Look at this OJ Mayo quote.An AP report says that USC announced receiving an LOI from OJ Mayo, and offers the following:"It's the perfect situation," Mayo, a 6-foot-5 guard, told USA Today. "After (football) players like Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart, the school is ready for a player of my caliber."
Sorry Douglas - I can't read.
OJ Mayo isn't cocky or anything is he?
i think it's going to be fun to see how many of these high school players that were dead set on going pro do in college, like to see them just turn out to be busts or something, like Oden or Caracter or guys like that, who are for sure supposed to be 'one and done' college players. i'm kinda rooting against them to succeed so everybody can laugh at them and say they never woulda had a shot in the pros.
Not at all...he seems to be a real humble guy. I bet we will see him ringing a bell one day for the Salvation Army because he is so humble.
Oden has always said he wanted to go to college and get his degree. I dont' think he is one and done.

I checked their myspace profile ( http://www.myspace.com/shegotzthagoodz) and sure enough it's some chick that went to Wagner. The odds of that happening have to be astronomical...
We will see after this year with Oden. If OSU wins the title, that fucker is gone.
Ozobi's a prince of Uganda!! He was in prison a while back and I sent him his bail money, but he hasn't paid me back yet. I'm not worried though ... if you can't trust a prince of Uganda, who can you trust?
Ugandan IOUs are worth every penny.
Adrian, you never know with Oden. He could lead OSU to the title or he could be a bust like Felipe Lopez
I tracked the sign up and sure enough it came from someone from Uganda. BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!Sooooooo, i tracked down this guy's IP address, right? So I knew what computer he's on so I wanted to figure out how he found us (the webserver tracks all of this). I'm almost in too much shock to even begin to type this, but here's the google search that led ozobi here. http://www.google.co.ug/search?hl=e...G=Google+Search
Well hell, if we sign him up, Douglas doesn't have to tell his lame "I fucked a gerbil" stories... we'll have some sweet stories from Ozobi about chimp rape.
I didn't know camping for PS3's could be so dangerous. Lexington represents...http://www.tgdaily.com/2006/11/16/p...iveby_shooting/
well, I hit up Wojega's little webpage with an ip address from Colombia and the think still told me his favorite was that chick from Wagner. I am completely dumb founded.We have a random dude signing up that1) found us searching for chimp rape2) lists one of his favorite people as some wanna be thug chick from Wagner3) who has "Hate me today" playing on her Myspace profileThis certainly has blown my mind. I was going to go through this chick's myspace profile list of "friends" and see if she's connected to us in any way, but it's just a big bunch of 17 year old posers standing around throwing up gang signs they saw on tv trying to look tough in a fucking myspace profile. "U noz how i be smokin' dem blunts and be updating my shit DAILY on my parents Compaq, bitches! Representin' INDIAN HILLS FUCKAS!"
I feel so old. I look at MySpace and just want to crack 90% of those people upside the head and tell them to stop being ghetto and get fuckin' job.
Brock, when are you heading to N'Awlins
Coming down to Louisville tonight to saddle up the conversion van, and heading down tomorrow morning.I'm going to try and avoid stepping in horse shit this time. Although I cannot guarantee anything since I plan to be Beyond Thunderdome as soon as we cross the Louisiana state line tomorrow evening.WHO DEY!
trust me, nobody at waggener lives in indian hills
A coworker said he heard on the radio that Brooks is getting an extension.
he deserves one
He deserves a huge bonus.

http://www.courier-journal.com/apps...ORTS03/61116030brooks' contract extension
I hate Lee Corso in the same way I hate John Madden.... I've spent so much time listening to them bitch about me trying 4th and 20's from my own 5, and then punk them out when I do it, that I've just grown accustomed to insulting their mothers, their brain capacity, their souls, their unborn children, their wives whom I've nailed in all manner of ways, their skulls being fucked, and any other manner of hate.
Wow Brock - way to prove a point via video games.
Ozobi, found the site form one of my long ago video posts. That's awesome. also the fact that he searched specifically about a chimpanzee raping a woman, perhaps it's happened. (which is fucked up) and too it get a great idea for New Years since Douglas loves to be on camera and loves all animals.
especially the furry ones
douglas and mark killed the Sci.
joe not being at work didn't help either
Apparently Male is the #3 high school football team in the nation:http://www.maxpreps.com/FanPages/Na...ball_Fall_06-07
I'm surprised they get such a high ranking... Male never travels out of state (or across the river) to play anyone good.Notice Cincinnati has two teams in the Top 12: Colerain and Cincy St. X
There's a high school called Coletrain in Cincinnati, no wonder they are always having racism problems in that fucking shithole.

Make sure you check out the Pitt punt return from tonights game...
On this week's episode of Prison Break, one of the prison guards steals a bunch of money and sets himself up in a nice hotel and orders up three prostitutes. Anyway, scene changes, then the scene comes back and one of the girls says, "you want me to do a Cleveland what?!" referencing the infamous Cleveland steamer. I found this funny to be referenced on network TV. Although it isn't the first time that very act has been referenced on tv. it still makes me laugh. Would make a decent family guy joke if they haven't already. Cleveland is a delicatessen. If he heated subs, then maybe they could be Cleveland Steamers. I know it isn't laugh out loud funny. but fuck it, it just came to me, and I'm bored.

The video on that site is hilarious.
Phil, are you going to counter-offer, accept, or decline my trade?
for Jayhttp://www.gwjokes.com/pictures/optimus-prime.jpg
For you James Earl Jones fans ...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6A0rwG39Jzk
bitches I'm back today
um, where did you go?
Phil, I just watched the Pitt Punt return. My favorite part was hit/block the Pitt guy put on the two WV's special team defenders. He knocked them the fuck out.
I've felt like shit the past couple of days. I'm getting ready to go to the doctor. I hate being sick. So, football sunday at noon, right? I might be on the IR.
I went an entire day yesterday without posting. I called in to work yesterday and then had a job interview. I think it went well. Hey Phil, what ESPN network is UL on tomorrow? I'm still down for football on Sunday, Chris is a no show and if Jay and Brock are out that leaves Mark, Adrian and me from last Sunday. What happened to everybody?
hopefully i'll be able to play this weekend, i haven't been able to get anyone to watch kaelyn the last two weeks. did u interview for that govt job? what was it?
This made me laugh this morning ... http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/mu.../content.2.html
yep, that was the job I interviewed for. The job involves deciding whether veterans injuries are war related and if they deserve disabilty and how much. I'm supposed to hear back next week with a decision. I'm pretty confident. Starting pay is better and raises are very good. Also, it is government benefits so that is good.
where's the office for that? so u get to be the guy to tell a veteran his injury doesn't warrant disability? good luck w/ that
I won't actually have contact with veterans for a while. That is when the big bucks come in.
Pitt punt returnhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20BIzgUuSP4
so you'd create the bad news, and someone else would deliver it, that's definitely the way to go
The spin move at the end is sweet but the best part is the Pitt guy knocking down two WV players.
Sportscenter yesterday, Toledo-Miami game. Sportscenter anchor about game played in mud "giggity giggity giggity there in the quagmire." Also, whoever said laughter is the best medicine never had gonorhea.
is chris working today at university? i just found out my mom's old neighbor (an alcoholic) was walking her dog this morning and collapsed and died, apparently she was taken to university.
Yep, he is in University ER
small world
I hope chris didnt kill her
ps3 just went on ebay for $5,300
You're the dude who found her? That's kinda funny...except the part where she died.
wow, your a doctor
The day I actually quit working here, whether it is by choice or not, I'm gonna miss how little work and responsibility I have.
RIP Bo Scembecheler. Is Michigan gonna win one for the gipper?Also, I'll have what he's havinghttp://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/?p=2836
Wow, this site sucks today. I should be able to make the game sunday. I'm not going to let a little illness stop me. I'm not a pussy.
chris, no, i didn't find her, i'm at work dumbass. my mom emailed me and told me she died and what had happened, apparently she was walking her dog and collapsed. she's a hardcore alcoholic, but she was a good friend of my mom's. chris, do u know anything about what happened to her, like how she died? i mentioned u worked at university at my mom was wondering if u knew cuz the neighbors that found her had no clue, and she was unconscious. apparently the paramedics revived her initially too.
Can't tell you shit that you don't already know. And she came in fairly early, you may not have already gone to work.
alright, thanks. and i'm officially down for football sunday for those who are gonna play
uh, jay, quick question...why in the hell did u pick up kurt warner in fantasy football??
I'm down for football
Is that HIPAA shit not being able to tell shit you don't already know?
I think my sickness has gotten to the point where being outside can't hurt, so count me in for football too.
new sports guy mailbag:http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page...=simmons/061117
this is why i don't fuck penguins, because they're gay. i have standards you know...http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15764474/
FAGS
hey, married people have no room to make fun of gay penguins, you're just as gay as they are
it's almost too easy
don't be mean
So UK plays tonight at 7. But I have to tape it because I have to go to some Children's Hospital Ball tonight......won't be to bad except I have to wear a penguin suit.
i wish to God u were serious
I'm glad to see the sports guy is with me on Studio 60. Marc, make sure you read the mailbag (well, at least the Studio 60 part). This is like your homework.
Anything going on tonight
I am serious. I am going with Abby to the Kosair's Children's Hospital Snow Ball.Apparently this is a pretty big deal for the hospital and the event is sold out. They are also having a silent auction with the proceeds benefitting the Children's Hospital. Some of the items you can bid on include a Terry Bradshaw autographed football, Bobby Petrino autographed football, they have vacation packages, dinner packages, fine clothing, etc....so yeah that is where I am going tonight. And the fact that I don't have to pay for the tickets to go to it is another added benefit....E&Y has a corporate table at this event.
I am guessing it will be set up similar to Chris's wedding because it is at Louisville Slugger Field. Not sure if they have any rooms there or not to rent.
sorry Kosair's = Kosairs
What the fuck?http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15759622/And we're supposed to believe flying is the safest form of travel? How many musicians died in plane crashes?Half of Skynard, Patsy Cline, The Big Three (Valenz, Holly, Bopper), Aliya, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Bob Denver, countless others.How many died in bus crashes????Can't think of 1. But I bet you more musicians take buses than planes. Even when they do take a plane, they generally take a bus to and from that plane. Suck on that. I just don't buy that bullshit. Planes are fucking dangerous. One time, I came home to find a plane fucking my dog. Yah...they're fucking dangerous.
i was talking about the penguin suit
Well I am wearing a tuxedo. It is a black tie affair for the gents.
"tuxedo up" doesn't have the same ring as "suit up"
if he was wearing a penguin suit, he could go 'penguin up'
I completely agreenor does "tux up"
aren't you the same guy that was in the flight suit and the devil outfit?
Phil - you'd like #8 08 Cardinal Collectors Chris Redmon, a former Louisville Cardinal and NFL quarterback has autographed a football for our special event.

Go Basketball cards, 100 points. TACOS!!!! Let me be the first to jump on the Jerry Smith bandwagon. For the record, Northwestern State went to the tourney last year and actually won a game in it. Big win Cards. 1 game down 1 to go for UL today.
Football CATS are sucking ass today. Their defense is attrocious as usual. UK lead 28-10 and then halftime is 28-27. Start of the 4th right now and UK is down 34-33. UK is driving and is in the redzone but this is sad...very sad. Things are finally turning in Lexington for football and I am grateful for that, however, they are talking about retaining the entire staff? A blind man can see that Mike Archer needs to be fired. The D hasn't stopped anyone all year and if we didn't have +10 or so in take aways we wouldn't have won 3 games all year. Joker and Sanders are moving the ball, why can't we get a defensive coordinator that can just stop the opposing offense just part of the time. I want to go to a bowl game badly, but I almost wish UK would lose Senior Day (today) to Louisiana Monroe so we can fire Archer!
Current drive summary courtesty of yahoo for UK vs. ULM. UK is up 42-34 1st-10, ULM35 C. Dawson rushed to the left for 6 yard gain 2nd-4, ULM41 C.

It is now 3 and 1 on the UK 1. UK trying to make a stand and there is 1:00 left in the game.
ULM scored. 42-40 UK still on top. Keep in mind UK fumbled the PAT attempt on the previous score so that would put them 1 point ahead after a 2pt conversion. Now they can tie it up.
I wish I would have checked this earlier. Baron, What about Cliff Burton? How could you forget him. (I'm talking about someone that died in a bus crash)
2 pt conversion failed. UK winning 42-40 but let's wait and see.....maybe ULM will recover the kickoff
FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!UK WINS 42-40I ALMOST WANTED THEM TO LOSE SO WE COULD FIRE ARCHER.FUCKER YOU MIKE ARCHER...YOU ARE A WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT.
This right here is reason enough to get a Nintendo Wiihttp://videogames.yahoo.com/gamerev...&eid=493324
From what I am hearing, UK will be playing on December 29th in the Liberty Bowl against Houston I do believe....unless we manage to beat UT.
Well shit Brock looks like you were right. UC over Rutgers...hope you are partying this one up.
Chris - I had some Evan Williams Single Barrel the other night...pretty good if I say so myself.

OSU and Michigan are still #1 and #2 in the BCS poll!
I love this video. In the Natty Sci remake I think there is no question that B-Mac would play the role of Redneck "Fucking Bullshit" Dadhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQkO...lZFyo&eurl=(via Deadspin)
Fuck! I hate MRE's!
Also, the kid in that video's name is either Gunnar or Gunner. I pray that he was named after Gunnar Nelson.
I don't know if anyone else saw this, but I thought it was appropriate under the "abuse of power" title. I really didn't foresee a Democrat proposing to bring the draft back. His thinking behind it might be correct, but nobody in the armed forces wants a draft. I certainly don't want anyone who didn't come here by choice. I'm not really concerned though, because any legislation like this will never pass.http://www.usatoday.com/news/washin...ary-draft_x.htm
Rangel's been doing that since 2003. His basic idea is that if people in politics and other "elites" had children that could go to war they'd be less likely to send troops overseas. Really, he's just being a smart ass.
Yeah but I think you can still get around it by working for a politician for some time or somethign like that. I don't remember the exact rule but there was a way around it...which I am sure their kids would be high on the list to do.
They would walk away from Iraq before they brought a draft.
