A fiercer dunk than DHigh claimed.  I always liked Jordan Crawford at IU, and if David’s not going to mention it, I’ll remind everyone that he dropped 20 on Kentucky and his big brother Joe.  A word of caution to Xavier fans, though–apparently some IU folk took to calling him TUO, for The Undisciplined One.

OK, I’ll go ahead and post the trailer. I think it will be a fun movie.

In the daylight I don’t link up my phone

This song is infectious. Sadly, I first heard it on a bacardi commerical while watching a TLC fix up your home show.  More infectious than the song is the video where this hipster white stripes clone looks stupidly happy. and they’re actually married. and they don’t BS around about it (oh we’re actually brother and [...]

Also, a little update: Played with a Lexington club team for the first time this past weekend in Berea, KY. We’re going by the name [...]
