If you remember Lil' Penny, you will really get a laugh out of Lil' Blake..very funny stuff. This is some very funny stuff..had to post it. Lil' Blake from Blake Griffin
I've always had a strong dislike for the Gators, mostly because I know a few Florida fans that think their poo doesn't stink. See, it all started when Florida was good at basketball for two years, then Gator fans started thinking they were a basketball school and had complete domination over Kentucky. Delusional. Therefore, from the obnoxiousness of those few fans that I know, I began to pull against Florida in every game, regardless of who they were playing. Unfortunately, I'm not getting a strong sense that the 24 game win streak Florida football has over Kentucky is going to end, in fact I'm just going into the game hoping the Cats don't look dreadful. The rain might give the Cats a chance to keep it close...r. I love my Cats and I'll be there tailgating all day, but I gotta say Florida 38 - Kentucky 14....Ouch! Prove me wrong boys, I'll be cheering you on either way! Go Cats!
So yesterday I spent about 6 hours tailgating with the now infamous whistle guy. I don't know this guy personally, he was a friend of a friend at the tailgate. What I can tell you is that him, and his buddy instantly seemed like they'd be on the wild side, and at least some good entertainment. Whistle guy did actually bust out the whistle during the tailgate on several occasions just goofing around. I remember specifically knocking the whistle out of his mouth at one point because it was driving me crazy! Needless to say, him and his buddies headed to the game and I thought it would be the last I ever saw of him and his whistle. My how I was wrong. The first time I heard the whistle during the game was about two plays before they actually caught him. Kentucky was on defense and as the whistle sounded, I could see the players actually ease up...this in turned led Louisville to a gain in yardage. Two plays later he blew the whistle again, this time the officials stopped play and we all saw the picture above, whistle guy getting led out of the game. Apparently, via whistle guy's facebook page, him and his buddy actually went to jail for this action. When I saw im being led out several sections away from me, I couldn't help but laugh. I could see the big antlers on his shirt as he was lead out and I knew it was him. (he was very proud of his shirt, talked about it a lot during the tailgate). This is all useless info, but thought I would share my story. I was not a fan of whistle guy, I think it is very dangerous for the players to hear a fake whistle, and it obviously was not giving Kentucky an advantage.
I started a bit of a twitter firestorm yesterday. It was after the Mississippi State LSU game. I saw a Miss St. team that tallied under 200 total yards of offense and benched their starting quarterback of 17 years in the 4th quarter. Your thinking "Yeah but it was probably a blowout, right?". You would be wrong. At its absolute worse it was a 2 possession game. Had the bulldogs broke one for a td, and recovered an onsides kick, they would have won. Dan Mullen felt his team was playing so badly a change was needed and Relf was benched. After witnessing the Miss St. offense i stated on twitter "As bad as UK football sucks, there's no way they will perform as badly against LSU as Miss St. did tonight". First off i state that UK football isnt great. So it is known i am not a blind stupid person. Secondly i state that UK would gain more than 200 yards offense against this LSU team. Am I out of line on either account? IF UK starts from its own 20 and drive down to score just twice, they will have gained more than 200 yards of offense. I realize that UK didn't exactly light the word on fire against WKU in the first game, but it was the first game. It cant be used as a measuring stick until the end of time. For instance, the UK basketball team 2 years ago went toe to toe against Miami (Ohio). In fact it took a last second shot by John Wall to win the game. Did that mean that Miami, OH was just as good as UK? No, it was early in the season, the team was still finding its identity and chemistry. By no means am I saying UK will lead the nation in offense. I am saying that with the offensive line getting more and more healthy, Newton getting settled in and receivers catching a few more freaking balls, this UK team can put some points on the board. Will they score more than 6 points against LSU. Hell yes. Will they gain more than 200 yards against Louisville Saturday? They better, otherwise UK does in fact suck as bad as people think.
I haven't written in this thing in a long time, but since I am sitting here eating a hamburger I just fixed and drinking a nice cold silver bullet, I thought I would stretch this thing out a little. I am looking forward to the football game tomorrow because I am ready to tailgate all day long. If anyone is bored and hanging out over in the orange lot, I will be across Nicholasville Road behind the Dr. office next to the church. I have been parking there for over 10 years now and it is like a second home during football season. We will probably be playing some cornhole, making fun of the Louisville people over there, and drinking some nice cold beverages. I have really enjoyed the new writers we have at NOB, and if you haven't check out Chris Minton's newest blog post you really need to check it out. It is definitely hardcore so if you aren't ready for some nastiness stay away. We hope to do a live podcast from the game tomorrow, and I am a little worried because I will have tailgated for about 5 hours before it. So, if you can't understand me and you will pretty much know why. Lets hope the Cats have a great first quarter, especially since the 1st team that has scored has won the last 10 meetings. I look for Morgan Newton to go off, and as I said on one of the podcast this week, I think he will be SEC Player of the Week. Yep, I am crazy, but in a BLUE way. Guess I will get back to following tweetdeck and see if anyone is accusing Coach Cal of illegally recruiting a dog or something... Catch you later. Go Cats!!
