The Big Blue Daily Mail -- LSU Edition
I'm braving the blizzard for a trip up to Indianapolis this weekend to take in the Blue Collar Comedy guys and have a short getaway from the homestead. I hope to be able to get to Indy in time to take in the UK/LSU game, but I have no idea if I will or not -- it is going to be rough going in this weather, and the further north you go, the worse it gets.
Still, at least we didn't get obliterated like Washington DC and the mid-Atlantic area. They might not be able to get out of their doors after getting 30 inches of snow. I remember a bad snowstorm there in about 1982, but it was nothing like this one.
Anyway, Ken will be doing the postmortem tonight and should have the pre-game up before too long. Right now, I thought a little news might be in order. Follow me after the jump.

Stay safe True...
Try to watch the game too, so we can have your great insights… :) . peace
I cried myself to sleep (literally), pounding my pillow the night Laettner made me hate Duke. I would still love to punch Laettner in the face!
We are getting hammered here in Baltimore
About 2 and a half feet so far, and it’s still coming down like crazy.
Still have power & internet, though, so game on!
I'm so jealous
…and yes, I know you’d probably love nothing better than to slap my face for flippantly being jealous of what is, for y’all, probably a potentially dangerous or at least truly inconviencent situation : ) However, i’m like a little kid about snow, it excites me terribly—the more the better. As far as winter days go, nothing could be finer for me than staying in with a warm (perhaps spiked) drink, a blazing fire, a foot of snow and a UK game to watch.

You live too close
to me for that snow fall you desire. I hate the stuff! I never liked snow as a kid. I did NOT play in it. My dad ran service stations. We had to be out in it, pulling cars from ditches and standing under dripping cars on a rack installing and removing tire chains. If I could live where it never snowed. That’s where I would be.:-)
Happy Days are here again The sky is all ways BLUE again Happy days are here again !
lol
You know, oldcat, I actually far prefer summer to any other season (although the lack of basketball is a downer). But if it’s going to be cold, I like to have snow to bring some whimsy and excitement. I’m sure part of it is that I live in and grew up in a part of the country that gets little snow, so that when it does snow, it is an EVENT. There’s excitement in the air, no school or work, there’s snowcream to eat, it’s all pretty out, etc. I’m sure if I lived in, say, upstate New York, I wouldn’t have such a romantic view of the stuff. My ideal climate to live in probably doesn’t actually exist anywhere on earth: looooong spring and summer, short fall, and very short but extremely snowy winter. So I guess I’ll settle for lovely western KY ; )

You're welcome...
…to come over and shovel! 8’) It’s lots of fun, LOL!
I like the staying in warm with a fire and hot drink too, just not clearing the snow part! It is very pretty though. Nice to have some time off to relax and just watch the snow fall.
Wow ...
… Here’s hoping you get to enjoy the game later!!
Blue... there is no other color to Bleed !!!
I knew it would snow in Indy
So I brought my Harley Davidson with me and set it in my apartment on a piece of masonite. I’m working on it right now.
"all the way"
Red-hot UK women pound Ole Miss
Pretty hot headline

That’s exactly what I was thinking….Mmmm, that sounds a bit risque ; )

Anyone curious about what will happen in the South Caronlina vs. Tennessee game today?
I’m not sure who I want to win on this one….
I cried myself to sleep (literally), pounding my pillow the night Laettner made me hate Duke. I would still love to punch Laettner in the face!
South Carolina win would be nice
will put Tenn two games behind. They beat us, yes, but they’re not a threat in the overall picture.
No matter where you're at, there you are
LOL! Leave that to Charlie Daniels going down to Georgia... :)

Nova is taking a whupping from Gtown
Potential for us to move up to 2/3.
Of course its difficult, its a shortcut... if it was easy it'd just be "the way."

Turn "Down" The Tempo
I’ve found the cure for excessive Cats’ turnovers. It’s the music the players hear in their headphones.
If you’re not a Fatboy Slim aficionado you’re missing a lot of fun.

UK should crush LSU....
they are not very good and I think UK plays better on the weekends (for whatever reason). I expect a 20+ point blowout.
Go Cats!
Slower Traffic Keep Right!
#2 Villanova goes down
Big East sure is stacked this year. Hope the Cats can continue the growth as they will surely need all cylinders firing come March.
Yeah, we'll see where Villanova ends up in the rankings this week.
I’m glad they got beat cause everyone was jumping on the Villanova band-wagon. Big East is sure enough stacked though!
I use to love Happy Meals, now I love sushi, but I will always love Kentucky!
Thanks
for the links , True …
I really do appreciate it. Keep warm in the blizzard
I hate to say this, and I know I will get the wrath of your readers ..
but it was almost too windy today to wash my car outside …..
Tis the life in Florida lol
but we have to deal with Tebow and Meyer …
