Some personal news, I'm leaving My Old Kentucky Home and moving to Michigan. My wife accepted an offer to become the General Manager of the NBC, FOX & CW stations in Flint. And after 20 years in the sports broadcasting biz, I'm moving on to pursue a career in education.

Lynn Bowden said his trip got “kinda ruined.” Wouldn’t speak on VT. “Not gonna talk about them.” He’s pissed, like he can’t enjoy himself anymore because they got him so motivated to win the game. Josh Paschal said never wanna give a motivated team more motivation.

I am one who pretty much “sticks to sports” but this is shameful what our state legislature did today. No other way to put it. And the ones behind it know it was dirty. Regardless of which side you’re on, no one can deny this was a sneaky trick that sews distrust in gov’t.

For y’all asking why I’m back in Kentucky, my wife became GM of FOX 19 in Cincy in December. We’ve landed in Union. I grew up in southeastern KY, lived 20 years in central KY & now gonna finish it in northern KY. Spent a semester at WKU, so I think I got it covered now!😂

Third-round pick salaries range from $899,198 to $818,073 per season of a four-year contract with signing bonus in the $1 million range. Bowden’s little boy ought to have a comfortable upbringing.

Big picture: Kentucky has reached a point where it has better players than Florida, Miss State, South Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri & Vanderbilt. That’s been proven so far this season & over the last two. Hasn’t capitalized on that in every meeting but overall, it’s fair to say.

It’s unfortunate that those comments were made by Boyle Co. administrator prior to the game, but saddest part is that’s NOT what Boyle coach Chuck Smith is about in any way. He built that program and it’s a shame someone else represented his program & the school that way.

Funny seeing this right now. A young neighborhood kid just came up to my door, football in hand, asking if my boys could play. I could see his disappointment when I told him they’re not home. So, I threw the ball with him a little bit. It is Super Bowl Sunday, after all.

Had the official never reached his hands out, Snell would’ve never touched him. It’s an emotional game and you’re going to reach your hands out after the player just got driven back and didn’t get a call for excessive force after the whistle? What’d you expect?

I get it. Boston’s ceiling is lotto pick high and Cal’s giving him every opportunity to show it. But you can’t have your worst shooter take the most shots. I’m sure he tells him to keep shooting but that’s just gonna get you more losses.

Walker Buehler is done for the night. Goes 5 innings, no runs, 4 hits, 5 strike outs, 3 walks on 88 pitches. In line for the win as Dodgers lead 1-0. His fast ball hit 100 & was consistently in the upper 90s. Buehler is expected to start again Saturday vs. the Giants.

Best day-after Thanksgiving food? White bread. Hellman’s mayo. The carved-up pieces of turkey. Salt and pepper. Simple but a delicacy because what other day of the year do you get the chance to make that sandwich? For me anyway because we do country ham at Christmas, not turkey.

Incessant hype leads to unreasonable expectations resulting in irrational outrage when performance is less than perfect. Will Levis is an exceptional QB and team leader. Don’t see any reason he won’t continue to learn and improve upon mistakes as season progresses.

I don’t have a radio show anymore, but if I did, what I’d say tmrw is this coaching staff didn’t believe it could beat A&M doing what it’s done all season. Remember when Stoops said after Miss St. win, “We knew we could beat them straight up”? Clearly didn’t believe that tonight

Of all the great HS games last night, I might be most impressed w/ Middlesboro improving to 4-1 after topping previously unbeaten Pineville. Larry French finds a way to get kids to buy in everywhere he goes. He’s now tied w/ Sam Harp for 5th most career wins in state history.
