  1. There is no doubt, Touchdown Terry Wilson is holding and not passing the football. So here is what happens when you have a quarterback who does not get the ball "out". Passing plays are designed for the receivers to run crisp, quick routes, and for the quarterback to make a quick decision as to who to throw the ball to. Because Terry Wilson NEVER throws the football "on time", the wide receivers quit running crisp, quick routes because they don't ever get the ball passed to them. Typically, Terry Wilson watches the rushers instead of scanning the field for his receivers, and then improvises and scrambles to extend a play and hopefully, find an open receiver. The whole passing game is in disarray because of the quarterbacks inability to make quick decisions with the football. We need a fix because a team must be balanced to win toughly contested football games.
  2. The Grove Park Inn is fabulous, but no one is warning the poor guy about how costly it is to stay there.
  3. As far as restaurants, I like Tupelo Honey. It’s a southern cooking cafe with a quirky menu, but it’s very tasty. It is down in the College Street area.
  4. True, but they have to have a productive passing game to have the season they are wanting to have. As good as Touchdown Terry looked at Florida, he was equally inept at Texas A & M. A very poor performance in all facets of the quarterback position.
  5. Asheville, North Carolina is one beautiful city. Have a blast!@ Most of my time in Asheville has been related to eating, drinking, and playing golf so all of those might not work well with your son along on your trip. Definitely the Biltmore tour. I have been on it 4-5 times and enjoy it more each time. An amazing estate. Mount Mitchell is the highest peak east of the Mississippi River. It is shocking at how far you can see and how beautiful it is way up there. I don't fly fish, but there are great spots for that near Asheville. I have done a zip line there and it was a lot of fun. It's a pretty time of year to go as long as you don't get any rain.
  6. Just confirmed. Hairline fracture.....out for season. ☹️
  7. The Henry Clay Blue Devils have reeled off 4 wins in a row, including an upset win on the road at Scott County. However, quarterback D.J. VanHorn suffered an ankle injury against Bryan Station last Friday and might be questionable for this big Frederick Douglas game. VanHorn is a key player for the Blue Devils.
  8. The coach grabbing or slapping the helmet must have been the way they did things at Florida State. Randy Sanders is guilty as well: ETSU football coach Randy Sanders reprimanded, docked for helmet slap This does not bother me one iota.
  9. I have always admired any coach who plays the game to win....not to not lose. Frank Reich is a new coach trying to establish a style to his team. I think that even though it was not successful, it will pay future dividends and respect in that locker room.
  10. I am caring for the NFL product less and less. I don't like watching football when the most important person on the field is the white hat in the zebra suit. :(
  11. I love the way Benny Snell plays, but the best running back in school history might be a little too strong.
  12. He is from Lexington. He graduated from Paul Lawrence Dunbar High School in June, 2018 and played soccer for the school.
  13. This story is what I am hearing now. They have shut down that area of Cooper Drive a couple of times this week as part of their investigation. The Lexington police have asked multiple times for any eyewitnesses to come forward with information. This story is ripping my heart out.
  14. My error. They were not intended to be grouped together. They are two different coffee makers
  15. Ooooops....one more: Please don't squeeze the ___________.
  16. I'd love to be an Oscar Meyer wiener. That is what I'd truly like to be. 'Cause if I were an Oscar Meyer wiener, everyone would be in love with me.
  17. This is going to be fun. My goal is to stump the young BluegrassPrepsters (and maybe some of us older ones as well) with these old jingles: Two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickels, onions, on a sesame seed bun. _______ tastes good, like a cigarette should. (banned from airways in 1972) The best part of waking up, is _____ in your cup. or Good to the last drop. Who can you call on for better insurance? Who can you call, ________. Who can you count on for blanket protection, and know that you'll find piece of mind? Call the man, from ______, he's on your side. Like a good neighbor, _____ is there. Get a piece of the rock. I am stuck on ________, 'cause ______ stuck on me. Plop plop, fizz fizz, oh what a relief it is. Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, ....................
  18. Yes they do. :( This is story is so sad on so many levels. The Shemwell family loses their precious little four year old, and Jacob Heil and family probably suffer the remainder of their lives. Poor choices often have major consequences.
  19. This is so sad. I live on Cooper Drive and have a 3 1/2 year old little boy. When this story broke, I received multiple text messages and phone calls to see if it was my son. It was not, but my heart goes out to this young boy and his family. Have you heard any update as to his condition, Goldie?
  20. Marion County had not won a game before tonight. Washington County appears to be a pretender.
  21. There is a little case history here. In the Fall of 2003, Trinity and Brian Brohm started the year losing their first four and won the state championship. Does anyone remember? Aug 23, 03 Montgomery Bell Academy, TN away (L) 13 - 17 Aug 30, 03 Cincinnati St. Xavier, OH at Ryle (L) 17 - 24 Sep 5, 03 DuPont Manual home (L) 36 - 37 Sep 19, 03 Seneca away (L) 33 - 34 Sep 26, 03 St. Xavier at Papa John's Stadium (W) 17 - 6 Oct 3, 03 Eastern home (W) 41 - 10 Oct 10, 03 Shelby County away (W) 48 - 3 Oct 17, 03 Southern home (W) 56 - 0 Oct 24, 03 Fern Creek away (W) 63 - 7 Oct 31, 03 Ballard home (W) 22 - 20 Nov 7, 03 Boone County home (W) 49 - 0 Class AAAA Football State Tournament Nov 14, 03 Shelby County home (W) 46 - 7 Class AAAA Football State Tournament Nov 21, 03 Ballard home (W) 36 - 12 Class AAAA Football State Tournament Nov 28, 03 Paul Laurence Dunbar home (W) 25 - 13 Class AAAA Football State Tournament Dec 6, 03 St. Xavier at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium, Louisville (W) 17 - 14 Class AAAA Football State Tournament Championship I say it is still the Shamrocks to win.
