Watchmen

What year were these purchases made? I believe at least one of the larger purchases was in 2005. So the Russians knew to try and buy Donald Trump off because he would be President in 2017? I'm more worried about the DIRECT buy off from Foreign Countries thru the Clinton Foundation. Where is the outrage?

The stats posted above are mind boggling when you consider that he was also getting everyone's best defensive assignment.....or 2 and sometimes 3. WOW! I've watched many stellar performances in the sweet 16 over the years and he is certainly up there as one of the best shows Question that kept popping in my mind though. Of the former U.K. homegrown players where does he rank in performances against them in the sweet 16?

Scott has to pull out all stops defensively.

Can you point out exactly what's incorrect in this article? I know first hand that several mines have restarted due to the deregulations. I also have a family member that has complained for years of how the federal government has defined a stream to regulate mines ( he is a democrat and thought it was underhanded by Obama administration). I can also tell you that several mine owners haven't reopened their mines because their is no market for the coal. Glad to hear one of the avenues pointed out is the production of steel. Remember the "tax" he put on power plants and forced them to convert to natural gas? I think president obamas's exact word were " I may not be able to stop them from mining coal, but I can make it where it is not affordable". Well if it put food on your table and your president made it impossible to do so.... then I think you would remember. I've read the article twice and I can tell you from first hand experience that it is correct. Please tell me what you think is incorrect?

Cooper playing extremly well. Hoping to see 2 NKY teams playing Sunday. Tough semi- final game coming though

I agree with the catching fire part. This time of year you never know. If Scott gets off to a great start again then you may have some 16 / 17 year old boys from BG start to panic. That can make it anyone's game

Nope, it's cov Scott that gets the dander up of most folks

I stand with my statement. If you are unaware, haven't heard of or surprised by a kid averaging 28 pts , 8 rebs and shooting 53% from the field, then you simply aren't paying attention to the state If you think it's a kid with embellished numbers, then again, you aren't paying attention Now days it's very easy to find what certain kids are doing from around the state with the technology we have at our disposal

BG is def the favorite but Jake can make their life miserable. I also don't think everyone is giving credit to the rest of the team. All the kids can play. When you have someone of Jakes unique ability, he is going to give you trouble. If he doesn't get into foul trouble then this game could be more entertaining than you think. But to think you can just shut him down is a death blow for any team that believes that

If Jake was a surprise to anyone before the tournament then they don't pay a whole lot of attention to begin with or they have blinders on for their specific area

Like every game you play, better be prepared or you go home early. However, cooper controls their own destiny in this one

Scott will man up and has to preassure the pcc guards and not allow them to sit back and have clean looks to their bigs. The few games I have seen Scott play they did press. Sometimes, what I call a token no preassure type of press ( which did nothing for either team and will get Scott killed against pcc), the other is a man preassure. I suspect they don't play preassure man a lot due to their bench depth but they can be lethal when they do. Expect them to run, run, run and pcc had better pay attention with their transisition D or they will get ran out of the gym

I whole hearted agree that the officials didn't win or lose the game I do sometimes wonder how 3 officials do miss blatant calls Their were multiple illegal screens in the open floor and blatant walks created by traps that went uncalled. I always wonder if they are afraid to make that call or what. I just can't believe they don't see it I also don't understand the call at the end. I wasn't in a great position but looked like a lot of ball. To me if you can't call the obvious moving screens then that call shouldn't be made and let it be decided in OT

Well, I'm not far behind you in age I guess. But I'm confused on the coaching comment. Their coaches have impeccable resume's and if the kids don't understand their system by now then they have some challenges. For all the years I've watched the program they haven't changed a lot up so I find it hard to believe they don't know what is expected Helps if you play the best 5 players? What changes do you make? One kid sitting on the bench was lost all night defensively and had to go the bench and they also rotated 8 - 10 deep. I think that gave everyone to make an impact and they had the ones playing the best in the end. Sometimes you have to make matchup changes. Needed a guard to chace their little guard letting the air out of the ball. Your other two guards def needed in the game.

Don't want to get into this..... just one question. Rcc9 were you st the game or the earlier game when the two teams played?

I can't speak for the coaches and I agree that they probably want to keep things normal. However, Kenton county is not giving them much support or the kids. See the comments regarding Scotts boys team. I guarantee you that coach doesn't want them to drive back and forth.

I think it has an impact no matter what level you are playing. For the girls, i def think the length of court impacts timing on fast breaks, conditioning, shooting and possibly spacing. Legs can get a little heavier especially as you start playing multiple days. Sight lines are huge and I think most shots are made from muscle memory. In NCAA tournaments I've always felt the large domes greatly impacts shooting I have also noticed some teams seem to counter some of this by running an offense that forces ( I don't believe you should ever help out of the strong side corner) help from defenders guarding the corner. The sight lines are much better from the corners and you see a higher percentage made

I'm glad to see it looks like their is a change happening. The Kenton schools just don't seem to be fiscally responsible. Meaning, in my eyes, we are to top heavy in central office and with 'educational' trips for the superintendent. I guess we have to squeeze every last penny so the students and community end up getting short changed At least that's an impression I have Really can't let Scotts boys stay in Lexington. That is so sad

Maybe the memo was re-written

I dunno. Do all these kids drive? Might be a great gesture by the school to say will do our part by helping you get there. I expect SK to have a good showing of support just wish the central office would make an effort

The Brock girl is tremendous. I read some trying to hype a matchup with her but she is simply at a different level than anyone else on the floor tonight. She was absolutely worth the price of admission. GRC took total advantage of their size and simply overwhelmed Harlan. GRC has Mercer next and will have their hands full. I think this time it will be in GRC's favor to have a lower scoring game as Mercer flat out lit it up from the outside tonight

I expected this one to be closer. Butler making an early statement. Didn't see it but I'm assuming Butler's experience showed out Heard they brought nearly the entire school!!! That's awesome

Very cool! I'm guessing the school had nothing to do with that? Apparently they refuse to do anything on their own accord. Do they not pay their light bill? Is their a reason they don't have any lights on with all those people on site? Holy smoke has it come to the point we cannot even turn the lights on? They should probably cut them down for scrap so the principle or superintendent can get another raise The more I hear and see the Kenton county school system is going down the wrong path if this is the way they handle things

I do not know a single player on either team. If you go back earlier in the year you will find plenty of compliments from me for the Mason County girls. I'm a fan of theirs. When I watched this tape, no matter what speed. It's simply a walk. Period. I, like others have stated, know this correct call is not what cost them the game. If either of the referees didn't make this call, I would be on the other side defending the GRC faithful complaining how their kids were ripped off. The outcome of the correct call resulted in allowing the players decide who moves forward. This was put in the players and coaches hands by the officials doing their job

I was told they charged $5 for each student plus ticket. Not hard to do the same for the state tournament is it? Why try to make a profit off your students. I'm sure the $150'collected paid for the gas and bus driver salary. But let's be real, are they really that petty?
