In the last couple of weeks we have lost 2 of our Bath Co. Basketball Hall of Famers. We would like send our condolences to the families of Melvin Stull and Joey Boyd.

@LanceDavis_82 @raashaan Both Coaches are in the pressure cooker, with what looks like successful portal additions both need to win games they’re not supposed to!!! Portal success should lead to W’s. Time will tell. If not, it may be “Adios”

@TheNathanRay Not watching but was keeping up with it. Agree 💯

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

@LanceDavis_82 @NewBBNMemes Preach It!!!!

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

@LanceDavis_82 @orangejuice_865 Consistently lost with much better players.

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

I, for one, am glad all of that is over. Now let’s fill out a roster and see what happens. You all know we have at least 1 more year of Pope. Go Cats

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

@LanceDavis_82 @edub_razorbks Could just win 1 with “boatloads” of talent in Lex. That was before NIL spread the talent wealth. Time will tell.

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

@TheNathanRay He just can’t let up. Keep hitting those “dingers”

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

@LanceDavis_82 @ericcrawford They will just Advertise the Job, Do an “Interview Process” and hire Mitch, the same game that happens in lots of job hiring situations.

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

@LanceDavis_82 @FoodPleaser The “Margie Boyd” way!!!!!

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

@LanceDavis_82 @ReturnOfTheCats Neither fan base has had much to brag about lately. Maybe this will be a “breakout” year for both. 🤞

Worth your time to read.

On this day in 1865, Robert E. Lee surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant.

Lee showed up dressed in his best, looking like a dignified gentleman. Grant was covered in mud after riding all morning.

Before anything was signed, the two men spoke about their shared service in the Mexican War -- a reminder that Confederates and Union soldiers were nonetheless countrymen tied by mystic chords of memory.

Grant did not create terms of surrender to humiliate the South. Grant and Lincoln understood that to unify the nation, you could not imprison half of it. Confederates were allowed to keep their sidearms and personal horses.

When Grant learned that Lee's men were quite literally starving after having not eaten for days, he ordered 25,000 rations sent to them immediately. Lee said this would have "a very happy effect" on his men.

When Lee rode away after signing terms of surrender, Union soldiers cheered. Grant forced them to stop, reminding Union soldiers that Confederates were "now our countrymen" and there would be no cheering over their downfall. (In fact, days later when actual ceremonial surrender occurred, Union Gen. Josh Chamberlain reportedly ordered his men to salute passing Confederates as a sign of respect)

Lee also worked diligently to stop Confederates from waging guerrilla warfare, encouraging them to set their arms aside and return home and in peace. He was a titan in his own right.

If the spirit of 1865 had been driven by the urge to shame and punish, the Union would not have lasted. So many people today misunderstand that and as such, they try to rewrite America history.

God Bless America.

I am not sure what a foul is in this game. 🤷‍♂️

UK was fortunate to survive first game. Iowa St. defense is superior. Both UK and UL fan bases dogging each other when both programs are not where they used to be and need to be. NCAAMBB is better when UK and UL are both Top 10 teams. IMHO

[Tim Ray @tinker_ray65]

@LanceDavis_82 @joev0626 Most fan bases that lose have some fans that “blame the referees”, it is not only in Lexington.

Even without Coach K on the bench, Duke still getting Duke calls.
