Okay,it is rare that I blog about sports but I think I have mentioned that I live in basketball country. That's right the home of the University of Kentucky Wildcats. I can honestly say that I use to be a big fan until Tubby.
So for 8 years now I really haven't followed the Cats as I use to.
Why did I not like Tubby? Well, I use to wait tables. I waited tables in some pretty nice establishments and I got to wait on Tubby Smith and let's say he wasn't a nice guy to me. Infact, his reputation is of being a gentleman and a nice guy.
He definitely was not to me. He was a grouch. Now I use to wait on Rick Pitino all the time and this man was awesome!!!!!!!! Great tipper too!!!!!
So I am so happy that Tubby is gone. I actually jumped up and down when I heard the breaking news last Thursday. I have been hoping for years now that he would go. Take your slow tempo basketball playing elsewhere.So badly, I wanted to go back to where my blood bled blue. I wanted to go out to watch the games and want to root for my team and now hopefully I can.
Now I am hoping for this man to come take over KY.
I have been hoping this ever since rumors of Tubby leaving started to
circulated.
Oh please Billy boy come to KY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want to take all my UK t-shirts, sweatshirts out of hiding
and proudly wear them!
(Billy Donovan coach for Florida and hopefully, he will take over UK basketball)

A FAVORITE POEM:
A Mermaid's Love
The sea is calling me, but only for a time, a time to return to thee and thy love divine. I swim out among waves, through the rocks the and great caves, thinking only of thee my love... Although we are from different worlds it never could be wrong, for thou knowest I will return, singing the mermaid's song... The clams, oysters, whales know it to be true, that all is love and all my love I only give to you... So come to me, oh sailor on the land, come with me and gently take my hand... For I will love you always, and always is as long as the sea meets the sand..

Keshi.
I have been on a dry spell for 8 years. It's due time I get into some basketball.
EDTIME---
We shall see Mr. Ed. I don't think Florida is gonna offer him what UK can. At KY he definitely will be a 'God' in the eyes of many true-blue fans. He has been at KY before under Pitino. He knows what to expect. I heard yet another rumor yesterday from a girl who works in the UK athletic dept that he did buy a farm in Woodford Co.(right next door to Lexington). He is into horses.
Yes, he could go NBA but I don't think he would gain the fame as he would at UK. Look at Pitino--he left UK at the top of his game and failed at being a coach in the NBA.
Again, we shall see....he hasn't said no, infact, he has danced around the questions about coming....
