Any word on the injuries for the Rocks? -

Given the youth of this squad they will be absolute beasts by season's end. -

BluegrassPreps Class 6A Rankings - Discussion (8/20)
PepRock01 replied to Ram's topic in KY Football (High School)
It's absolutely precious when you all get cocky like this. Downright adorable. :bunny: If the big Louisville schools are overrated and they have dominated NKY and Lexington over the years what does that make those schools? Less then irrelevant? Cannon fodder? Hollow shells that just need a swift kick to collapse? Seems to be the case anytime they come to play the Rocks considering the last win against T from any of those schools was in what, 2004? Let's put up before we puff our chest. Trinity has proven themselves, X has proven themselves, Male has proven themselves, as has Scott County... NKY has proven to be nothing more than a minor speed bump consistently. So until NKY or Lexington can beat a quality team as opposed to just punching around the other also-rans, they will consistently be ranked below even a 1 loss team from the powerhouses. -
And when some of us try to help people be a bit more reasonable in their expectations we get people all mad at us for trying to the straight man in this narrative. I seem to recall this moment in the 2014 state game.

I agree, but first real game with a new team and new school is different than practice and a scrimmage. Besides, people need to remember that Beatty lost his first game at Trinity in 2000. This sort of thing is not unusual.

That's one of the things that I have been thinking. We are looking at a squad with a new head coach, playing with a new offense, and without their starting QB. I think that the X squad we see by the end of the season will be much different than the team we see now as they get more comfortable with everything. Not to take anything away from the Colts, I was stoked to see this, but I think people are still overlooking those details.

To be fair this is technically out of state.

Wow! -
Bowling Green to play Warren Central (IN)

I love it! -
On top of all of that Wallace has experience and a history of success as a coach. While Wolford's heart may have been in the right place and he may have been a great player that doesn't translate automatically to coaching ability. I think Wallace is much better prepared for the challenges ahead of him.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
PepRock01 replied to MJAlltheWay24's topic in Television / Films / Music
Frankly I felt like this was just milking the cow. Of course I wasn't keen on the original Jurassic Park because I read the book first so take my thoughts on it with a grain of salt. I just feel like these follow the same basic plotline. Man made creatures, didn't take them seriously enough, got greedy, creatures get loose, chaso ensues, heroes survive... oh also take a shot every time someone says something about "Playing God." -
A couple of reasons that come to mind. Initially it was pressure from border states because it was something that was common among Mexican workers, and in our "enlightened" minds of the time it was assumed to be a moral failings and caused social ills. Much like how the Temperance League villianized all alcohol consumption. Hence the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937, though it didn't make it illegal per se it made it de facto illegal. In order to posses and sell it you needed a special tax stamp but in order to get said tax stamp you needed to have it in your possession. A nominal number of tax stamps were "issued" but never given out. This is because even back then it was not popular to ban any substance, the public wasn't inclined to go along with it. Fast forward to the 1960s the law was overturned by the SCOTUS as unconstitutional per the 5th Amendment. However given its popularity with the beatniks and hippies and the counterculture in general it was made a scapegoat by the "law and order" crowd. So public support was finally behind the idea of banning substances hence the Controlled Substances Act of 1970 which codified what was Schedule I. That's just a very very basic rundown.

I don't speak to or see mine anymore. 5 and a half years together, 6 months married, and unpleasantly divorced. I periodically see her mom, but only because she ended up being the godmother to my youngest niece.

KY has one called KASPER that MDs and pharmacies are supposed to use. MDs are supposed to run a KASPER report before prescribing any controlled substances (not just opiods). Pharmacies then report the details of the fill to KASPER so the database is up to date. If you were ever asked for a SS# when picking up or dropping off a medication in KY that was due KY's KASPER requirements. Pseudoephedrine is not a prescription only medication and as such they can track all purchases through methcheck which is nationwide. The US is a patchwork of drug laws that very from state to state and not all drugs are even under the same restrictions from state to state.

They also didn't have the same concept of addiction back then. To many treating the cravings by giving the substance was actually treating whatever "disease" it was. Back then Heroin and morphine were considered to be safer than alcohol by much of society. A morphine addict and heroin addict didn't beat his wife or start fights at saloons, but a drunk did. And access was even easier then too, you didn't even need a prescription for any of it until 1914.
