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.

There are so many reasons why this Kentucky team has gotten better since they first threw the ball up.

Some players have already exceeded logical expectations. You could fill in the blanks with a number of UK players, but Josh Harrellson obviously would win that award.

But, if you are looking for one shining star, it could be the new general of the team.

"Brandon, I'm so proud of him," says Cal.

"How many of you were in Hawaii with us? Different player isn't it? Different player. And that's what you want to see guys who want to change and want to get better."

The Cats look like they are ready to roll through the SEC.

"Because Brandon is really running our team and playing for his teammates, he's not playing for himself anymore. He's playing for them. He can say anything he wants now. Early in the season, you can't speak much. Looking at you like man, come on, how about passing the ball?"

Brandon appreciates Cal the teacher and Cal the coach who sees the change in his point guard.

"It makes me feel good just to know that coach sees me a little bit differently now than he did at the beginning of the season," says Brandon Knight.

"And like I said, I give God glory and I just want to continue to trying to get my teammates involved and to make sure I'm looking at everybody else and making sure I'm letting my other teammates getting them to play better. Putting them in the right positions to make the right plays and stuff like that."

Knight not only is getting the ball where Doron Lamb likes it, but he yells at him to shoot.

"He let's us know what we are doing wrong," says Lamb.

"He's doing that right now and that's why we are winning games."

It's all part of the process of putting a team together.

"I think my teammates always respected me," says Knight.

"I think maybe a little bit more so now because we got to know each other a lot more and we're becoming more and more of a family, so maybe a little bit more, now that we bonded a little bit more. When I say something everyone is listening when we huddle up and everyone is in tune when we are trying to figure out what we are doing."

Twice during a four minute interview session with Knight, he praised God for his success.
