Kentucky Shines In College Football Openers
September 1, 2011 4:11 PM 
The college football season opens up tonight with two big games for the Bluegrass State. With me being from Kentucky and living there all my life, I have vested interest in both of tonight’s games on ESPN U. First the Louisville Cardinals take on the Racers of Murray State, then The University of Kentucky takes on the Western Kentucky University Hilltoppers! Considering my ties to all four of these schools I will rank how they mean to me on this night when they face off, and really any other night.
4. University of Louisville – I know it may sound strange, considering I grew up in Louisville and my parents still live there, but ”Cardinal” was a dirty word in my house. We bled blue…period. I still like to follow the Cards, but on this list they fall into last place.
3. Murray State – Murray, KY was my last stop before arriving in the Tri-State. I lived there for 3 years and worked for the Racers’ flagship radio station. Yeah I have a little affection for them, and I think in all reality the Cardinals should look out for them this evening.
2. University of Kentucky – As difficult as it is to put them second, I will. We could really called them tied for first, because I’ve been a Wildcat fan my entire life. I still wear blue on many days of the week, so does my wife, so does my 6 month old daughter. I LOVE the cats…LOVE THEM, but…
1. Western Kentucky University – The only time UK drops to number two in my book is when they play my alma mater. I’m a Hilltopper first and I always will root for these guys in red, even if it means cheering against my beloved Wildcats.
Whatever happens tonight, it’s a big stage for the Kentucky teams on national TV and I couldn’t be happier.
Deer Goes Crazy After Crashing Into a Bus
May 18, 2013 12:00 PM I have had my fair share of run ins with deer. Living in the country, it's just a way of life. You must, during the early morning hours and evening/night hours, constantly be on alert and have your eyes scanning the sides of the road.
Once, on a trip back to Indiana from Tennessee, a deer came inches away from slamming through the passenger side window of my car, injuring my son. Luckily, the deer hit the front of the windshield and rolled off the hood of the car. But in the case of this bus, it came right through the window and went crazy!!
Trick Shot Videos That Would Make LeBron and Tiger Jealous
May 18, 2013 8:00 AM Trick shot videos can be pretty amazing depending on how elaborate they are, which in some cases might even make you question their authenticity. The first Video is one of the most incredible basketball shots you will ever see featuring a guy falling from a 100-goot platform and dropping the ball through the hoop. The second video might be the greates trick golf shot ever and definitely a one-in-a-million shot.
‘Sixty for Sixty’ Campaign for George Strait Falls Short
May 18, 2013 4:00 AM George Strait turns 61 years old TODAY! The "Sixty for Sixty" campaign to get George his 60th #1 single while he was still 60 years old didn't quite make it, "Give It All We Got Tonight" has only made it to #10. But, that's OK, there is no one like George Strait and there quite possibly never will be. Several, I mean tons, of artists made videos to try and urge fans to buy the single. It is very touching. Watch them give love and admiration to the king of country music.

However, with everything going on in the world today and on the nightly newscasts, sometimes we just need something to remind us that life is good and humanity can be a beautiful thing.

Behold, the Greatest Bird Hunter of All Time
May 16, 2013 11:45 PM Every so often you see a video that makes you say, "no way he just did that." Have you ever heard of noodling? Noodling is basically fishing with your bare hands and believe it or not, but some people are very skilled at this. In fact, I think there is some kind of reality show about noodling. What do you call quail hunting with your bare hands?
