Florida Game Thread

Big weekend for sports in the Bluegrass. Billy Donovan returns to Rupp Arena for the first time since he turned down the Kentucky job. Sunday is also Senior Day for Joe Crawford and Ramel Bradley. Most pundits believe a Wildcat victory will ensure Kentucky's chance to dance. A loss for Kentucky, however, will make the Big Blue Nation question the angle of their NCAA dangle. Good article about the turnaround of this season in the Kentucky-hating Herald Mis-Leader.

Weather Update in Lexington: Raining Ice Bullets

On Tuesday, I had the opportunity to sit down will my old friend Danny Trejo. You may recognize Dan from his roles in Con Air, Heat, and Spy Kids. Despite his intimidating appearance, Danny is actually a very friendly guy. We discussed politics and the upcoming presidential election. Mr. Trejo likes Barrack Obama, but doesn't think Obama will be able to beat John McCain in the general election. I personally think who ever wins the election should appoint Danny as the Director of Homeland Security.

On Wednesday, I took part in a round table discussion with Andre Woodson, Wesley Woodyard, and Stevie Johnson. We discussed the upcoming NFL Draft, 40 yard dash times, and the slumping of Swedish tennis since the departure of Bjorn Borg. This was my first interaction with Stevie Johnson, and I was very impressed. Not only did Steve provide some very thought provoking discussion, but he also gave us all a hug when he left. Check out Stevie's pregame performance in the video below.



Yesterday, I had the opportunity to visit Rafael Little at his apartment in Lexington. Rafael just had knee surgery this week, after tearing his ACL and MCL in the Senior Bowl. Despite being immobilized, Rafael was in good spirits. His rehabilitation will take around eight months, so we won't be seeing Rafael in the NFL until the year after next. Rafael said he thinks Joker Philips will be an awesome head coach, and that he fully expects the new version of Knight Rider to be as good as the orginal.
