But, when Kentucky has had the type of season it's had, a win over undefeated and 12th ranked Vandy is huge.<br /><br />I only wish I could have seen it. I listened to the entire game on the radio, as I was driving out to Altus, OK for some training. As the radio started to fade and become fuzzy somewhere between Grayville and Mt. Vernon, Illinois, I pulled off I-64 at the first exit I came to and parked my blue Tahoe on the side of the road. Here I sat and listened to Tom Leach and Mike Pratt call most of the second half and both overtimes on a scratchy 840 AM WHAS out of Louisville.<br /><br />I'm glad they won, because I would have been just a bit frustrated having sat on the side of the road that long for a loss. Hopefully the Cats can build on this win and get some momentum going into the SEC schedule.J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-47301374902945908202008-01-06T20:26:00.000-05:002008-01-06T20:39:01.644-05:00Engaged!!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyCQbMXmwhujzl2oGYe1eZw9lAsdfbm5yAprb_3qQ7vKoa3D2qXbZ25o14xpjkezMvQ-xTjPNUqewg8KpGMrbzAda3ShJRl3FE_WJ8ZzO56DyJHtUifJGBHanG6_kc34Sw6ehK/s1600-h/IMG_0106.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyCQbMXmwhujzl2oGYe1eZw9lAsdfbm5yAprb_3qQ7vKoa3D2qXbZ25o14xpjkezMvQ-xTjPNUqewg8KpGMrbzAda3ShJRl3FE_WJ8ZzO56DyJHtUifJGBHanG6_kc34Sw6ehK/s320/IMG_0106.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152543115706658034" /></a><br /><br /><br />In case you haven't heard, I got engaged last Saturday to pretty much the most awesome woman I have ever known. We've only known each other since July and have only been dating since September. But, when you know, you know. Both of us have been though enough relationship "junk" to know a good thing when we see it. Both of us have been dedicated to prayer and seeking God's will from the beginning of this. And now, both of us are really excited about spending the rest of our lives together. <br /><br />Kacey Leigh Fields absolutely makes me a better man, and I can only hope that I can make her better too. I now could not imagine living my life without her. May 17th is the first day of the rest of our lives together, and I can't wait.J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-45840257165758562672008-01-06T20:08:00.000-05:002008-01-06T20:09:50.547-05:00The epitome of class:I present to you...Bobby Knight.<br /><br /><embed allowScriptAccess="never" allowFullScreen="true" src="http://media4.redlasso.com/xdrive/WEB/vidplayer_1b/redlasso_player_b1b_deploy.swf?embedId=cf1a02a8-3da4-4f1c-a2f2-c4cfdc64c7f7" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="390" height="320"></embed>J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-16033413421252895222008-01-03T16:02:00.001-05:002008-01-03T16:04:19.774-05:00Is there any doubt what #1 would be......on the list of the most awkward sports interviews?<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/VosNK542wrI&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/VosNK542wrI&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-9571919449230961892008-01-02T12:03:00.000-05:002008-01-02T12:06:36.781-05:00The Big Blue NationTalk about fan support...follow senior linebacker Wesley Woodyard as he makes his way to the stadium for the Music City Bowl vs. Florida State.

Time for a new post. Well, here you go...<br /><br />There's a lot of panic surrounding the Kentucky basketball program. Even people who casually follow sports are likely to be aware of the struggles of this year's UK team. Well, this has been coming for some time, and those who have been paying attention shouldn't be surprised that this season is ugly. Maybe surprised that it's been <span style="font-style: italic;">this</span> ugly, but the likelihood that Kentucky would be a contender this year was pretty small.<br /><br />Kentucky lost 10 of its last 17 games last year. They graduated two starters, and one went to the NBA. Several key reserves also graduated. Billy Gillispie brought in two big-time recruits, one of which has already transfered. This year's team has two seniors and one junior. The rest of the team is sophomores and freshmen. Two key guards that would be starting this year have been injured up until now (Jodie Meeks came back last night). Last year's team was mediocre at best, and it doesn't make sense to expect this year's team to be any better considering all of the above.<br /><br />Billy's installing his system. Kentucky players now must do things his way. They have to earn their playing time, and they aren't given anything. This is a significant change from the way things operated under Tubby.<br /><br />Anyway, there is no reason to freak out. This season is going to be rough, but Kentucky fans need to be patient.

Enjoy.<br /><br /><a href="http://kaceyleigh.wordpress.com/">kacey leigh fields</a>J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-54988793723751085342007-11-20T21:55:00.001-05:002007-11-20T21:55:48.561-05:00Funny<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bqrmj8VM32Y&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bqrmj8VM32Y&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-85279914046736794782007-11-17T10:06:00.001-05:002007-11-17T10:07:30.290-05:00Why NOT to be a Florida Fan, Part VII<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidHvp-253JNvjHe4vAxpLNAN9rE_sf2GqqxImVb2D6uo26ZAHvBqSXOoVo1U9DxXHvy-ub33Zes5u2AjrwQJ0epyzd6wQ_a1oObLRUHOC3Wx8Jast77_6tfiJzJTGAvcd4kvk8/s1600-h/gatorreject.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidHvp-253JNvjHe4vAxpLNAN9rE_sf2GqqxImVb2D6uo26ZAHvBqSXOoVo1U9DxXHvy-ub33Zes5u2AjrwQJ0epyzd6wQ_a1oObLRUHOC3Wx8Jast77_6tfiJzJTGAvcd4kvk8/s400/gatorreject.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5133826032551456866" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />They're smelly.J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-78778130132525490522007-11-17T09:24:00.000-05:002007-11-17T09:31:25.942-05:00It's the small things...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1tj_tFzCM1QllE-r5S9oHl0obyYVH4mKK_CoWcjxEskkZWHGEfXoauTe5boEIC1vwuA32ovAk7Y4vraEdqJkI-jCEk9iSruoKRMZIChcOEUslMMxu4cOQF5lJ9iqMc3k5Nuga/s1600-h/article_553_Main_Entrance_Web.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1tj_tFzCM1QllE-r5S9oHl0obyYVH4mKK_CoWcjxEskkZWHGEfXoauTe5boEIC1vwuA32ovAk7Y4vraEdqJkI-jCEk9iSruoKRMZIChcOEUslMMxu4cOQF5lJ9iqMc3k5Nuga/s320/article_553_Main_Entrance_Web.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5133816587918372930" /></a><br />My wonderful girlfriend Kacey combined two great things on her trip to Savannah yesterday. She went to (great thing #1) Bass Pro Shops and picked up some (great thing #2) Circus Peanuts to surprise me with them. It does not take much to make me happy.

Seeing Mute Math live was quite the experience. These guys have some of the most energy I've seen from anyone, and they are extremely artistic, energetic, and talented. A pretty good combination for a great live show. <br /><br />The lead singer was working on a 103 degree fever and still had tons of energy. He did handstands on his keyboard and was constantly working the crowd. The drummer had a headset on, I assume to block some of the noise while still being able to hear the music. He moved around so much that he duct taped the headset to his head by wrapping the tape around his chin and up over the top of his head several times. On one song, the bass player played an upright bass while at the same time banging on a big bass drum...the type you'd see in a marching band. All of these guys ended up playing different instruments throughout the night, a testament to their talent. <br /><br />There were 8 screens placed together to form one big screen behind the band, and throughout the show there was abstract/artsy video compilations playing in time to the music. Under the screen was a long line of huge fluorescent type lights that when they were all turned on, made it too bright to look directly at the stage.<br /><br />All around, from the sound guys, to the lights, to the production, to the band itself, Mute Math is top-notch. If these guys don't make it big, something's wrong. Here's an example of their talent. They played their current hit song, "Typical," on the Jimmy Kimmel show. For a twist, though, they played it backwards, just the way it is on the song's music video. Backwards...impressive. Backwards, live, in one take...amazing. They had to learn play their instruments and choreograph their movements backwards, so that when the tape is played in reverse (as it was on the show), it looks like it should...essentially how it is on the music video. Confusing enough? JUST GO SEE THEM if you ever get the chance.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/AFlSy1TuRv4&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AFlSy1TuRv4&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />Here is the video of which I write:<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/b13rc6DY74A&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/b13rc6DY74A&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><br />And how they made it:<br /><br /><object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5DMLPyibslI&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5DMLPyibslI&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-76677939326118765192007-10-24T15:53:00.000-05:002007-10-24T15:54:26.279-05:00My Midweek YouTube Gift to YOU!!!<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/es6pW7N0GiA&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/es6pW7N0GiA&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>J Dubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16379871272007946573noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20346019.post-56992336332907355122007-10-22T12:31:00.000-05:002007-10-22T12:35:28.451-05:00Kentucky + YouTube= Awesomeness.<br /><br />Reasons I won't make fun of this video:<br />1.
