Pick & choose NCAA denies Enes Kanter . A pity

[era veteran]

Sidney, Cam Newton, Ohio State these are ok. Enes @ UK a no no. Inconsistent overlords.

"We were informed by the NCAA that the flexible decisions made by the NCAA staff in other high-profile cases could not be used in case precedent and were not binding on the NCAA going forward. The University of Kentucky was very hopeful that our student-athlete might receive the same type of consideration afforded to these other athletes but that did not happen. We were also reminded on a regular basis that the amateurism and professionalism piece, including benefits received from a professional team, is the one area of Bylaw 12 that has not been deregulated."

Regardless, tomorrow is another day...Saturday!
Kentucky v Pitt in the direction bowl @ noon. ESPN UK starting QB kicked off team & Pitt with an unenviable coaching situation. Morgan Newton & Cobb will impress the nation and UK wins by 12.

3. Pitt kicked our clumsy asses.

Down by 11 to Georgia at the half, I may need to get some 'corn'.

4. Screw corn. Go get some bourbon

Do they sell that stuff in Kentucky?

5. I used to be able to get it & I have 4 special Makers Mark

jugs in the attic for portable wealth (potable wealth?) and for medicinal value. I had to lay that bottle down Tater, over 20 years ago. I probably got all the good out of it by the time I dried out. In light of this stupid shooting today, the games don't seem so important. UK football will kick ass next year and of course the relentless quest starts again. ... Corn does make the Bourbon though.
