Kentucky Poem
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I remember seeing this before, thought I would share..

What is Kentucky basketball?
It's not a coach.
It's not a player.
It's pride....tradition.
It's a 5 year old with a cat paw on his cheek saying, "Beat Louisville!"
It's not a game.
It's not a season.
It's pride....tradition.
It's expecting to be dancing every year where most pray to be.
It has no beginning.
It has no end.
It's pride....tradition.
It's waiting for midnight madness when the March buzzer rings.
Players that come are in awe of it.
Players that leave treasure it.
Players that oppose despise it.
It's pride....tradition.
It's getting the best from every opponent in hopes to top it.
Rupp built it.
Hall polished it.
Sutton shamed it.
Pitino restored it.
Calipari obsesses over it.
It's pride....tradition.
Keightly has served it.
Happy sang to it.
Cawood lived it.
It's pride....tradition.
Digger hates it.
Vitale and Packer are jealous of it.
McGuire realized it.
It's pride....tradition.
What is Kentucky Basketball?
It's "Blue and White" and "Go Big Blue"
It's "C!-A!-T!-S! Cats!, Cats!, Cats!"
It's pride....tradition.
It's more than a pastime
It's more than a hobby.
To some it's a religion.
It's pride....tradition.
It's K-E-N-T-U-C-K-Y on the jerseys.
Win or Lose, that's all that matters to me.

Welcome
Welcome to my blog http://www.skegley.blogspot.com/ . CAVEAT LECTOR- Let the reader beware. This is a Christian Conservative blog. It is not meant to offend anyone. Please feel free to ignore this blog, but also feel free to browse and comment on my posts! You may also scroll down to respond to any post.
For Christian American readers of this blog:
I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.
The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!
A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:
"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."
Thanks Jack!
I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.
