Well, it has been hard to watch the Men’s (or for that matter, women’s) UK Basketball team this season so far. However, on New Year’s Eve, we finally got to see the best 5 players on the floor all together, and it looked pretty good.
What looked even better was the UK Football team taking down the Florida State Seminoles at the Music City Bowl later that evening. Here is a nice (if a bit long) package of highlights from the game, courtesy of ESPN.

Simple…it is as catchy as HELL, and i LOVE the video. you’ve seen it on the Apple ipod commercial. The band is Feist…the song is 1-2-3-4.
Just enjoy.…
Ike Turner passed away today. What is largely unknown is that he was partially responsible for a song that is considered by many folks to be the FIRST Rock ‘n Roll song EVER. The song is called "Rocket 88", and lots of folks are looking for it today on YouTube. You can watch it right here.…
This morning kicked off the annual shopping MESS that has become known as "Black Friday", where large herds of angry beasts known as "Christmas Shopper" pile up outside of big box stores to save a few bucks on some random items.
Every year, the doors open early (I saw ads for places opening at 4am!!), and piles of people cram inside, and usually we end up with a good story or 2 out of it all.
Here’s some video of last year’s event at a Target store……
Guess this guy doesn’t like visitors. 🙂…
Well folks, I do seem to come and go around here, and I do apologize for that, but other demands take me away at times and it can’t be helped. I promise to try and keep fresh and interesting content coming your way.
To that end, today I’m doing a combo…Video of the Day/Music You Need to Know…
Here’s a little video called "Charmer" from a little band called Kings of Leon. Me, my wife, and our friend have been to see them 3 times this year…in Louisville, Columbus, and most recently Nashville…and they just rock. They are from Tennessee …
This should have been the VOTD starting on Monday and lasting all week long, but I am just now getting around to doing some updates…lots of stuff going on this week.
Anyway, in case you are just emerging from a cave, UK defeated the #1 team in the country, LSU, this past Saturday in front of a national TV audience. Here is the 3rd overtime in all its glory…enjoy!…
Journeyman is one of the new additions to NBC’s Monday night lineup. The show airs at 10pm eastern, and so far, it is one of my favorites of the new season. I was a HUGE fan of Quantum Leap, and at first I was afraid this was just going to be some sort of knockoff version of that show (even though it was also an NBC show).
However, this show stands on its own just fine. The star of the show is Kevin McKidd, who played Lucius Vorenus in the HBO series "Rome", which was also very good. You might …
Well folks, I know you are all stuck at work today, trying not to daydream about what has now become the biggest UK game of the season, in a SERIES of biggest games so far. Each one is huge for earning national respect for our beloved CATS, and a win tonight over South Carolina and the Ol’ Ball Coach would be absolutely AMAZING!
So, while you sit there counting down the hours until kickoff, you might want to read this very cool article about Kentucky football on Yahoo Sports.
And just to help pump you up, I thought I’d throw …
For those of you who don’t follow sports, Kevin Everett is a player for the Buffalo Bills who went down the first week in a HORRIBLE collision that left him without any feeling from the neck down. The doctors were not sure that he’d ever be able to walk again, but miraculously, he was able to move his arms and legs within several hours after his surgery.
This is a sportscast about that remarkable event…too bad the video didn’t quite match up.
