Well I'm alive.

Wife and I stayed at a friends house who only lives a mile from hospital; she has to work today too.

Get up at 5AM, check outside, see a good foot and a half on the ground with 3-4 ft drifts already. Quick shower, go outside and start digging my car out and clear it off. And then try to start it. Won't turn over. Keeps trying but just won't toching turn over. Battery was fine, everything just checked two weeks ago. Try another 15 minutes, nothing. SON OF A ***** was my only thought.

Go back inside, tell wife to put warm clothes on, we're walking. She looks at me with murder and/or divorce in her eyes. Snow coming down a good 4-5 inches/hr, 40-50 mph wind gusts, and can barely see 10 feet in front of you. Oh boy.

Pack up what I need, head outside to grab something from car. By this time there's already a new 3 inches all over windows. Try one last time to start it, say a prayer, and boom it started. Thank touching God.

4wd all the way, no problem. Powered through a few big drifts but the early snow was all powder so was relatively easy driving, visibility was *miserable* though. Can't imagine the number of wrecks with anywhere close to normal traffic.

It's still coming down like 2-3 inches/hr now. Think my city is up over 30 inches, drifts piled over cars, many friends legit snowed in. Going to be a miserable next few weeks.

Barker is white, an accomplished blogger, and tweets alot. He's also a quarterback. Ergo, he is the leader of this team. Very disappointing.

How ridiculous is it? I think the most snow I can ever remember is 8" my senior year of high school. Where are you- Amherst?

This would be two epic knucklehead strikes on Barker, if true...

Odds the whole thing started over Humblebragging???

UK football the past five years has been a repeated kick to the nuts. If it's Barker, just another reason why we needed a QB in this class. He had already shown dumb *** tendencies.

The past five years? LOL Umm, I think you mean the past 65 years.

Don't worry, though- according to Transy, UK football is thisclose to SEC titles and world domination.

At least it's the EKU guy that is blinded. In the past it would be the UK guy. #silverlining

Not gonna jump the gun, but if that's true, is Barker just a ******** punk who just fooled everyone, or what?

Seemed like the PERFECT kid, from all accounts/all around coming in here

So, what's the major part of this story that I'm missing?


Our 2nd/3rd-string QB got his *** whipped in a fight? Yeah, he was the so-called golden boy (
), but is that it? I'm supposed to panic about the program now?

Yeah, if Barker got in a fight, I don't really give a ****. People get in fights all the time. Now, if there is more to it, then perhaps you stupid pricks should expound on it instead of saying cryptic ****.

If you're just going to say "If what I'm hearing is true, then OH NO." then just keep that **** to yourself.

Either say exactly WTF it is, or STFU about it.

Like a bunch of Facebook drama queens around here.

Latest from HOB:

So apparently Barker and Baker started mixing it up with an EKU Olineman and DORIAN shattered a beer bottle on the kid's face. The lineman now has to have reconstructive surgery. After this incident our guys went to the EKU football player's dorm and one of the EKU Dlineman knocked Drew out. Also as we all could have guessed it was over a female.

Well, I don't have a problem kicking Baker off the team if he really cause that much damage. Barker got his *** kicked, so not sure I see the point of kicking him off the team, other than being a consistent idiot. If Stoops wants to draw that hard a line, whatever, I don't really care. I'm not going to feel sorry for either guy if they get booted. #RISE

wasnt Baker in some trouble in HS so he had to go to a Prep school for a year?

What a bunch of dumbasses, a carload of UK players thinks it is a great idea to roll up and take on an entire dorm? granted they are 1-AA, but that is still a buncha guys.

The rest of the SEC -- the teams that kick our *** year-in and year-out every single year -- has a roster 2-deep of convicted rapists, felons, drug dealers, street hustlers, illiterate flunkies, prison brawlers, carjackers, and assasins.


And we're worried about the future of our program because some white boy 3rd-stringer got into a fraternity slap fight.





WHY, OH WHY DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO US!!!?? /murphys law

Yep this tells me the program is trending in the right direction.

What the heck is going on?

Whatever, it's pretty clear that in the modern era, UK football has to SUCK for UK basketball to really thrive. Counterbalances and all.

So, I'll take some bad fb news if it means #9.

Now that WKU is finished wiping their *** with our football team, i'm glad EKU is taking a turn. Not surprising that a certain poster is an alum/EKU spokesperson. (its Booker)

Wonder if the guy sucker punched Barker ? If not, we don't need him. First, he is playing with a toy gun, then after escaping a fight with someone bigger than him (maybe, EKY has a small O and D line), then he goes and gets KTFO chasing after them. Two things here, actually three. 1. He is not very smart (following a bunch of EKY players after one of your boys busted a bottle over his face. 2. Is a *ussy, needs to get 10% tougher. 3. A wannabe thug (toy gun, can't fight). If this was some big boy brawls, like say THE U back in the day, no way 4 UK players would have been alone against a whole EKU team, and damn sure would not have been any **ck boi toy guns. The U would have handled this in a totally different manner, probably would not have even been leaks of a altercation happening, threats would have been made. Big Boy football / Small time wannabe football. We need to maybe drop down to Division 3 / NAIA, take on the likes of Wis- Whitewater, Mount Union etc. ,pick on somebody our own size.

Sorry it offended you Clark. It was a attempted joke, aimed at our bad news bears, bad in general football program. Do not focus on the any of the post as serious, none of it was, well except the horrible football team part.

You mean we aren't measuring our off the field conduct based on WWTUD? Pretty sure it's perfectly reasonable to kick Barker off the team not because he got in a fight, but because he was a ***** and got knocked out in said fight. And seriously, if Barker isn't going to carry a REAL gun, then who the hell needs him? We don't want guys on our team that get knocked out and don't carry real guns.

And don't even get me started on this being reported by the media. If our program is so full of little f*ck boys that we can't even make threats strong enough to extinguish leaks, then piss on these guys and this ***** *** program.

Here's the litmus test to determine whether or not you are a terrible poster.

(1) You make an attempted mock post of some sort.
(2) No one else can tell whether or not you are joking, and it is generally assumed you were not.

Yeah because nobody made jokes about "we have real ninjas with real names now", no more sissy names like Tyler etc. and several people joked about the guns being pellet guns when that happened. I guess it was smart to follow the guys back to the dorm. It was a joke, I would never want UK sports to be like Miami was (other than the swag and bad *** intimidation on the field stuff). Not 1% of my post was serious, and call me names all you want with the catsfaggotbgky, it has been done before. I apologized if it offending Clark.

Good post, imo.

I just don't get this silly media stuff, and I don't give a F if Drew Barker is shooting heroin while he impregnates underage women. This ain't no spelling bee, or whatever. The Soap Opera of Sprots can DIAF. Nobody cares. Can he throw the damn ball or can he nah. That is the question.
