THUNDERBIRDS

Just got off the phone with my Daughter...Whew! She's okay. But apparently the story floating around is that a Student jumped off her dorm which is Jewell Hall at UK within the last past Hour. Everything is on lock down surrounding the Building. She said she heard they did rush a Victim off in a Ambulance but wasn't sure if it was a Male or Female. Crazy world we live in!

Woke up Sat morning in Ft Thomas with about 2-3 Inches of Snow in my part of town. I plow snow on the side so I needed to get up and head to do my 1st job in Newport before they Opened at 10. I arrived to the Location about 7:30 and there was maybe a 1" of Snow. It's crazy the little bit of Elevation difference from Ft Thomas to Newport makes it that much of an Impact of Snow totals. Woke up Sunday morning with another Solid 3" in Ft Thomas but that also was the same across the board in the Lower lying surrounding areas. So I would guess 5" on the North side of Ft Thomas from this weekend.:thumb:

I agree 100%

I believe you're correct about Football. The next couple of weeks for Reid Jolly should paint a Clearer picture for his future. Stay tuned! From what I'm hearing it's pretty exciting stuff. I'm keeping my Fingers crossed from the Info I'm hearing....:thumb:

Final from Destin Florida. Highlands beat a very athletic Charles Henderson H.S. from Troy Alabama. Ryan Leigh 21 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists Ben Sisson 12 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocked shots Tristen Thompson 8 points Jack Hegge 7 points Sam Vinson 8 points, 5 assists, Zero Turnovers, 2 rebounds and 2 steals Alex Starkey 6 points Keep it rolling Birds!:thumb:

It was foul! But a foul that wasn't being called all night until it really mattered. Both teams were getting hammered the entire game.....But it was foul!:thumb:

No I didn't mean to make it sound like he missed it on purpose. Glad you pointed that out! Thanks.....

Congratulations to this fine young Lady on getting the Chance to play College Softball. Now lets go get that 9th Region Title......

Sisson missed the 2nd Free throw as it would of made it 65-64 in Highlands favor. IMO, I think it would given Highlands a better shot had he made the 2nd Free throw to set up a Defense rather than let Harding grab the rebound and take off up the Court and draw the cheap foul. The pressure for Harding from Newport to make One Free throw to tie rather than shooting to win the game is a little different. Again IMO! Would of could of should of right? Very nice post by you by the way!

Send it in Big Fella! Highlands 1st Points of the game....Fun watching Ben Sisson finally get his opportunity to shine.

Big Ben Sisson!

I wish Ryan Leigh from Highlands would of gotten off to a better start last night. I think he was 0-5 from behind the Arc in the 1st quarter alone. He normally knocks down at least 2-3 of those on any given night. They were all open looks as well! But like they say, keep shooting it will start to fall. And they did! I thought both teams played extremely hard for all 4 quarters. I did see that both Conner & Cooper players were in the House to see the Freak himself in person. Ben Sisson may only be 6'-5" but plays much taller than that. Does anybody have the number on how many Block Shots he had? At Least a half dozen that I can remember. Donnie Miller is a smooth Cat...No pun intended! At what point does Coach Snapp form Newport need some CPR? My goodness! I know he's over the top but he almost Stroked out last night. He got very lucky when he approached the scores table late in the game and punched it. It was Technical worthy...IMO! He did it within 2:00 left in a 1-2 possession game as well. Very lucky! This isn't the Highlands teams of old from the last half decade! Not even close....

I meant ranked higher. Everybody knew what Highlands had coming back. It wasn't like they were laying in the Weeds!

I agree but sometimes it is what it is.....

Might just have to wear my #bullybirds shirt tonight! I actually have one.... They way Highlands plays it actually reminds me of a Covington Turners League game. So don't act like the CCH players have never dealt with a little Physical contact once or twice. It even gets Physical over at the Friars Club(Oh) for any CCH kid who hasn't experienced Turners. Certainly the CCH players have played there!

Isn't that a little harsh? Highlands has had plenty of talent the last 3-4 years. Maybe not enough to compete like they are now. I like to think of things as a Marathon and not a Sprint. I think Kevin Listerman and Coaches do a unbelievable job. Who am I kidding, one's my Brother In Law!:clap: Highlands success just didn't happen overnight. They have been building this team for a few years now. I commend the players who have "Trusted the Process" Go Birds!

Not a huge fan of Rankings. On that note, I know not being preseason ranked is what has fueled the Fire behind how Highlands is playing! It's still a very young season.....

This is a huge game for the Highlands Basketball program. They have had this game circled for quite some time. If Highlands brings the energy they did against CCH then I say anything is possible. And if they don't then it's the Wildcats by 12. I like the BullyBirds by 8-10.

Still hearing details coming in from the “In the know” out of Bracken Co. and they are telling me that the Two animals arrested tried to Dismember the Deceased after they Brutally beat him. Very disturbing! Loss for words right now.... Praying for my guy Jimbo! It’s hard to talk about because of mine and his relationship we had. I know I haven’t talked to him in quite some time but my Coworkers interacted with him daily so it’s very discomforting. But sometimes talking about it helps with the healing.

This really hits home for me. James “Jimbo” Gordley worked for me for about 7-8 years as a Mechanic. He had to step away about 3 years ago due to some Health Issues. Was always a hard worker but did battle some domestic issues along the way. Some of the details I’m hearing about the situation are really disturbing. RIP Jimbo! Three arrested for murder after dog running loose led police to body

Go Birds! I will be in attendance Saturday...Daughter dances for Highlands.

Yes.... I have a feeling that's what did him in. Doing what Evans Inc. was doing is bad enough but to basically throw it back into the Face(s) of the Government and the City of Cincinnati is another with how he named the company. I was told that he use to Brag about it to Employees not really thinking that it would come back to haunt him some day. I'm hearing that all 4 former High Level Office members that included Jordan(Ergon's fictitious owner) testified that "Ergon" was scrambled for another word. That's just plain Dumb! IMO.....

Just saw where he is visiting Syracuse this weekend. I would say that's pretty much it for Green. Good Luck young man!

Final from Dayton!

Not only was he found guilty of Stealing from the Government but mocking the system by creating the company name “Ergon” IMO! No telling what he’s done to his Common customer and hard working Employees. I’m sure there more to the story like there always is. Sounds like a stand up guy in my Eyes! Insert a “Dump” truck load of sarcasm.
