Blog readers, please forgive my rather Inside story on my beloved Kentucky Wildcats. Parity is all over the spectrum of college basketball and so many of these people could have played key basketball roles outside of the big time division 1 schools. The practice players who don't receive a lot of playing time contribute mightily anyway! Thanks for recognizing them Ms. Tyler Thompson!
Junior Braddy's "Chance of a Lifetime" has become a Kentucky Classic of a statement.
Three cheers for the Kentucky basketball All-Time Walk-On Team
by Ms. Tyler Thompson @ 9:30 pm. Filed under Blue Blooded Opinions, Going Hunting
Lately, there’s been a lot of talk about the characteristics of a good walk-on player. At Kentucky, we’ve seen the spectrum: cocky chest puffers (Steve Masiello), hard-nosed hustlers (Mark “Clappin’” Krebs), and baby-faced Backstreet lookalikes (Jarrod Polson). While we love to scream “SHOOOOOOOOT” at each of them equally, some stand out a little more for their passion and pride in the Blue and White.
Since the first walk-on I can remember in earnest is Masiello (no wonder I hate hair gel on men), I had to dip into the dusty history books to attempt a fair assessment of Kentucky’s unsung heroes. And man, what a delightful research topic (thank you bigbluehistory.net, for your wonderful resources, by the way).
Here’s where I would rank the walk-ons, in terms of a) Big Blue pride b) on-court performance and c) legacy:
FIRST TEAM
Cameron Mills
Years: 1994-1998
Career Points: 365
Mills is one of the most memorable walk-ons in Kentucky history due to his super sweet three-point shot and tendency to step up in big games. Case and point: the three to give the Cats the lead against Duke in the 1998 Elite Eight. That clip still gives me chills. Fewer players have had more passion for the blue and white than Mills, who turned down a scholarship at Georgia to play for the Cats. Mills is now an evangelist who travels the state, speaking to churches, youth groups, and schools.
Ravi Moss
Years: 2002-2006
Career points: 376
Many people forget that Moss was a walk-on, which is understandable considering he was a starter for a while. Ravi was one of Tubby Smith’s best athletes and quickly became a fan favorite because of his unselfish, gutsy play. Unfortunately, Ravi ran into some trouble with the law after college, but his hustle and flat out effort should endear him to Cat fans for life.
Nehemiah “Junior” Braddy
Years: 1989-1993
Career Points: 327
I’ll admit, I’m too young to remember Junior Braddy, but the more I read about him, the more I like him. Braddy, also a member of the baseball team, brought a spark off the bench and helped the program emerge from its darkest hours. What did being a walk-on mean to Braddy? In his own words, from the 1991-1992 season:
Chance of a Lifetime by Junior Braddy
Every child in America dreams of becoming someone famous or just doing something special that sets you apart from the rest of the world. It is impossible not to dream. Every time we go to sleep at night or just daydream in class, we enter another world where no goal or achievement is impossible. Most of us wake up, but a select few dream on, until one day they realize that their dream has come true.
Fifteen people share the same dream, with each person striving to make that dream come true, but knowing that with one mishap or twist of fate you can be rudely awakened never to dream that dream again. But with determination and hard work we can dream on, until truly we become one of the select few on this earth. We have the chance of a lifetime, and I believe that we can do it. Not by might or by power, but by faith. And I do believe.
Preston LeMaster
Years: 2002-2006
Career Points: 30
Why include LeMaster? Sure, his stats aren’t as flashy as some on the list, but Preston LeMaster was the quintessential Kentucky boy that fans could connect with through shared childhood dreams of playing for the Cats. That’s why we all went wild when LeMaster, son of former Cat Jim LeMaster, scored a career-high 12 points on 4-5 shooing from behind the arc in an 80-40 victory over Ole Miss.
Todd Svoboda
Years: 1992-1993
Career points: 24
“But, Tyler,” you say, “This guy only played ONE YEAR. Why does he deserve a place amongst the fan favorites?” His three-pointer to send Kentucky to the Final Four over Florida State, that’s why. Svbododa took a big risk by transferring to UK from Northern Kentucky his senior season, especially considering Rick Pitino told him he wouldn’t get a single minute of playing time. That’s not that unusual for a walk-on to hear from his coach, but Svoboda took the chance anyways, and it paid off. Svoboda reignited the hopes of a team and fan base recovering from probation and the dreams of young Cat fans across the Bluegrass.
SECOND TEAM
Chris Gettelfinger
Years: 1977-1981
Career Points: 28
Perhaps more infamous for his bright red curly hair and last name than the points he scored, Gettelfinger will always be a fan favorite. Unselfish and almost proud of the role he played for the team, he chose to play for Kentucky over his hometown Tennessee Volunteers, which should make you love him no matter what.
Mark Krebs
Years: 2007-2010
Career Points: 12
Future walk-ons could learn a thing or two from Mr. Krebs (and I’m not just saying that because he’s part of the KSR family). Like Gettelfinger and others before him, Krebs embraced the role of walk-on, working hard to help the team in practice and supporting from the sidelines (although Stacey Poole is giving him a run for his money for best cheerleader).
Mark Coury
Years: 2006-2008
Career Points: 65
Ah, the Coury Flurry. Exactly as awkward as he looks, Mark Coury is lovable for many reasons. First and most obvious, his freakin’ sweet good looks. Who can forget the rec specs picture (obviously not me, since it’s the one I chose to use)? Even more bizarre was his brief stint as a starter under Billy Gillispie and his career at Cornell after he transferred. Godspeed, Mark Coury.
Matt Heissenbuttel
Years: 2000-2004
Career Points: 21
Another homegrown Kentucky boy, Heissenbuttel naturally grew up loving the Cats. He was even a ball boy for Rick Pitino back in the day. He may not hold any scoring records at Kentucky, but he does hold a record for the longest last name of any current or former player. Take that, Matt Scherbenske!
Steve Masiello
Years: 1996-2000
Career Points: 42
I really didn’t want to put Masiello on this list because he’s such a you-know-what, but like it or not, he’s one of Kentucky’s more memorable walk-ons. After doing a little bit of reading about Mr. Masiello, it turns out that my alma mater, Davidson, rejected him (see, we ARE smart), which led Rick Pitino, a close family friend, to give him the chance to be a walk-on at Kentucky. So there you go. The admissions office at Davidson was the catalyst for Steve Masiello’s journey from Knicks ballboy to Kentucky walk-on/victory cigar to assistant coach/Molly’s regular to Manhattan College head basketball coach. You’re welcome?
I know I’ve left several favorites off the list, but it’s a start. Who did I miss? SHOOOOT!

Deaf Italian bookkeeper... Thanks Ramey!
This seems familiar, but it shows human frailty in the incidence of tyrannical mafia power:
A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper, Guido, has cheated him out
of $10,000,000.00
His bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason he got the job in the first
place.
It was assumed that Guido would hear nothing so he would not have to testify
in court.
When the Godfather goes to confront Guido about his missing $10 million, he
takes along his lawyer who knows sign language.
The Godfather tells the lawyer, "Ask him where the money is!”
The lawyer, using sign language, asks Guido, “Where's the money?”
Guido signs back, "I don't know what you are talking about." The lawyer
tells the Godfather, "He says he doesn't know what you are talking about"
The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to Guido's head and says, "Ask him
again or I’ll kill him!"
The lawyer signs to Guido, "He'll kill you if you don't tell him."
Guido trembles and signs back, "OK! You win! The money is in a brown
briefcase, buried behind the shed at my cousin Bruno's house.”
The Godfather asks the lawyer, "What did he say?" The lawyer replies, "He
says you don't have the balls to pull the trigger."
Don't you just love Italian lawyers?

Woman and Wine... Thanks once more, Judi cole!
Re- Woman and wine... Thanks Judi Cole!
Thanks for posting on your blog, Sam - glad to contribute!
Thank you, Judi!
I am so lucky to have such good and caring people who send me interesting, funny, and timely emails that make the blog more interesting than just my own meager input.
"How lucky you can be, Sam Kegley such a pretty woman!" my good Army friend Noburo Yamamoto, a Nesei Sergeant, would say in looking at Jeanie's picture beside my bunk in Tokyo back in the early 1950's. With our family and friends now, I know how lucky I am.
I am so happy that the real power of the Universe lies not in the hands of fickle human "leaders", but with our almighty Lord whose plan was to take human living and suffering upon Himself through Jesus Christ as man.
We each remain small but so buffeted by the greatest thing available to each. That, my friend, is Christianity. May we embrace it with all humility and with true peace and love for all humanity.
How wonderful a human plan that formed the USA. Human, but guided by the principles freely available to all and proclaimed in the Capitol of this nation and its individual states. Even our leaders have shown much frailty; however, where they have sought wisdom from above it has been poured down:
New American Standard Bible (©1995)
"Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure-- pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return."
God must and has forgiven our shortcomings through Jesus Christ and His death and resurrection soon to be celebrated world-wide by Christians.
"How lucky indeed", Sam Kegley and all of your delightful correspondents!

Woman and wine... Thanks Judi Cole!
A woman is sitting on the veranda with her husband, and she says, "I love you."
He asks, "Is that you or the wine talking?"
She replies, "It's me.............talking to the wine."

Questions about o Thanks Ramey!
True that the following is part theory and or conjecture but after I read it and the attachment I am truly frightened and I am pretty much not afraid of anything or anybody!
I can neither confirm nor deny this; I am forwarding it because it is interesting and raises some questions I believe need to be answered. Your comments about it will be appreciated. This info may be the result of what Donald Trump’s private investigators have developed, and what Trump quoted his investigators as saying that they can't believe what they've learned about Obama. What about this information? If it is true and correct then what? Does Obama have a criminal past? RB
******************************************************************
Posted on Tuesday, April 05, 2011 5:57:56 AM by IbJensen
Trump is correct. Barry Soetoro, AKA Obama is hiding something in his past that is very bad and it may not be his citizenship. (Trump would not say this if he did not know something and he has the money to get the dirt.)
As an IRS tax examiner, one of many former federal jobs, I have seen what it appears Barry Soetoro has done, mostly by illegal aliens attempting to acquire a new identity in the U.S. and/or criminals looking to acquire a new ID.
Barry, AKA Obama, was lawfully adopted by a foreign national, Lolo Soetoro, and Barry's name was legally changed to "Barry Soetoro.” (Barry's own admission) Barry Soetoro was also made an official legal Indonesian citizen. (Again Barry's own admission) The adoption would be noted in Barry's vital statistics record in Hawaii on his original birth certificate.
OR … Lolo Soetoro may have always been Barry's legal birth father. The public does not know for sure at this point who Barry's father really was and Barry himself may not know.
Barry was raised as a Muslim in Indonesia and attended a Catholic funded school that permitted all faiths to attend.
Barry's mother dropped him as a dependent for some reason, maybe even when Barry was adopted by Lolo Soetoro. His mother's passport records dropped Barry as a dependent indicating Barry was no longer a legal dependent of his mother. (The passport records of his mother have been produced showing Barry was no longer a dependent when Barry was permanently residing in Indonesia.) Barry went to Hawaii to live with his alleged grandparents after Lolo Soetoro and Barry's mother divorced.
A "Certificate of Live Birth" can have names changed on it, including a child's birth name and birth parent's names. Even a modified date of birth can be on a "Certificate of Live Birth." This occurs frequently for adopted children when the birth parent does not want the child to know who they are. The public has no idea who Barry's real birth father is or who Barry's real birth mother is. (Barry could have been adopted by his mother.) The original birth certificate is the only legal vital statistics record of a person's birth parents, birth location, birth date, etc… I can get a "Certificate of Live Birth" for a dead person; I cannot get a birth certificate of a dead person without "Deceased" on it. (I've tried.)
There is no evidence Barry Soetoro ever lawfully changed his name to "Barrack Hussein Obama." There is no proof Barry Soetoro was born with the name "Barrack Hussein Obama." I'm willing to bet the name "Barrack Hussein Obama" is not present on the real birth certificate as Barry's birth name or as Barry's birth father. I have pictures of me with my mother and Jimmy Buffet. That doesn't make him my father even if I start using the name Jimmy Buffet.
The public knows Barry Soetoro finished high school in Hawaii as Barry Soetoro and attended Occidental College as Barry Soetoro where he did drugs and flunked out of school. After dropping out of Occidental Barry showed up in New York, homeless and on drugs. (Barry's own admission) Barry then hooked up with a Pakistani to live with and traveled back to Indonesia on his new boyfriend's dime to renew his Indonesian passport and traveled to Pakistan with him.
Ask any law enforcement officer or detective in a large city and they will tell you homeless young men on drugs in large cities usually end up as male prostitutes. Barry ended up as a world traveler with a degree. (Not likely)
Barry Soetoro returned to New York from Pakistan and began using the fictitious name "Obama" for some reason. (Again Barry Soetoro's own admission) One could only suspect that a person addicted to drugs returning from Pakistan to New York, the main route for Afghan heroin into the U.S., maybe Barry had a reason to start using a new name. There are literally over 1 million open warrants on file in New York … maybe Barry is one of them?
After spending some time in New York allegedly working under the name "Obama," it appears Barry used the fictitious name "Barrack Hussein Obama" for the first time to file his federal taxes in Connecticut at a Post Office Box for the purpose of evading paying taxes in New York and/or to establish a new identity. (This is a felony with no statute of limitation.)
When the IRS received Barry Soetoro's federal tax filing, the IRS could not attach the name Barrack Hussein Obama to the SSI number provided or the address provided. So the IRS assigned the fictitious name "Barrack Hussein Obama" a tax ID number for a person from Connecticut (Where Barry unlawfully filed a federal tax form using a false name). Barry Soetoro began using the tax ID number as his SSI number when using the fictitious name Barrack Obama. This is why Barry Soetoro has a Connecticut SSI number. When I worked for the IRS, I saw this occur more than once and yes, it is a felony to knowingly file fraudulent federal tax forms. Most of the politicians who cheat on their taxes claim it was an accident. That is how they get away with their tax cheat crimes. Using a fake name is no accident.
It appears Barry fled New York to Chicago using his new identity to get a job. He likely ordered a fake diploma to bolster his new identity as "Obama." Fake diplomas were very big in the 80's and diploma mills were even being used by federal workers to get promotions. There is evidence his alleged attendance at Columbia was faked (Barry never attended Columbia) and Barry lied his way into Harvard (he had no transcripts to get in) including telling the Saudi royal family he was fighting in Afghanistan with the Muslim Jihad against the Russians so they would help him get into a law school.
The Saudi's apparently loved Barry's story of Jihad in Pakistan/Afghanistan and paid for Barry to attend Harvard under the name "Obama." The Saudi family has admitted to paying for Obama to attend Harvard and gave Harvard a gift of $20 million dollars. Harvard in turn made their special attendee President of the law review (a person that never wrote a single law review) I guess that is what $20 million will buy at Harvard.
It is unlikely Barry was a Jihadist and was most likely a drug mule if anything, maybe even a CIA street hire to haul Afghan heroin back to New York so the Afghans could buy U.S. made stinger missiles with U.S. dollars to shoot down Russian helicopters? I hired people over seas to do work below my pay grade all the time, even foreign nationals. I think this is the story Barry told the Saudi's, but he was most likely really just a drug mule/dealer and probably still wanted on an outstanding warrant in New York.
Barry's selective service registration is not normal either. http://www.debbieschlussel.com/4428/exclusive-did-next-commander-in...
After I looked at Barry's selective service filing I noticed it was most likely fraudulent too based on the name he used. Barry did not start using the name "Obama" until he returned from Pakistan (long after he flunked out of school in California.) His selective service record (maintained in Chicago coincidentally) shows he registered at a Hawaiian post office as "Obama" in Sept 1980. Problem: Barry was getting high in California at Occidental in Sept 1980, (Barry's own admission) and was not using the fictitious name "Obama" at that time. Barry began using the fictitious name "Obama" only after he returned from Pakistan. The selective service filing is fraudulent.
NEW NOTE - On the Selective Service Registration, Barry did not have the Connecticut Tax ID number he used on the Registration until after he began using the name "Obama" in New York. More evidence his Selective Service filing is fraudulent.
Barry returned to Chicago and attended a semi-Christian radical black church with his first female love, Michelle. Barry admits keeping in touch with Phil Boener who traveled to New York from Occidental to be with Barry and was most likely Barry's first love.
Barry still could not get a real job because he was still a fraud, even with his Harvard degree in hand he could lie and take the Bar exam, but he could not work as a lawyer for a major law firm without a background investigation and he could never pass one. So, Michelle got Barry a job at her law firm. Barry never filed a case alone and never filed a motion. He wrote lots of memos according to the law firm where Barry worked. (I think they knew Barry was a fraud and didn’t want to be sued by previous clients.) Barry rescinded his law license so as not to be disbarred for fraud. The Bar knows Barry lied on his application. Michelle also had to turn over her law license for her involvement in corruption with the Chicago mayor’s office.
With time on his hands Barry, a well spoken black man, was able to get elected to a state office, oddly because he looked for fraud in his opponents’ voter registrations and got his opponent disqualified from running. Barry, a well-versed liar, was a natural in state politics. He used his political influence to get himself a position as a lecturer at Chicago's law school. Barry embellished this position as a "professor of law" which everyone knows is completely false. Barry was not a professor or even a specialist at anything but lying.
On a whim Barry ran for the United States Senate from the State of Illinois. Politicians do this all the time to make a name for themselves even if they can't win. At the time the Republican Ryan was a shoe in for the Senate seat so no real Democrat contenders entered the race, but Barry did. On a fluke after the primary Ryan's wife Jeri Ryan (Seven of nine from Star Trek) went public that her husband was making her have sex with other people while he watched. Ryan dropped out and Alan Keys moved from Maryland to run against Barry Soetoro.
The election got all kinds of press because there were no blacks in the U.S. Senate and one of these black men was going to be a Senator. Alan Keys did his best to warn everyone Barry was not who he claimed to be, but the public saw him as a carpet bagger. Barry kept the lie going and presented himself as a clean black man who talked like a white man. Illinois elected Barry to the U.S. Senate. The Democrats had already begun scrubbing Barry's background when Ryan dropped out.
Phil, Barry's boy friend from Occidental, was found working in California as a communications specialist (receptionist) for a dental hygienist school and given a diploma from Columbia and cover story. The rest of Barry's drug friends were all given jobs or money by the Democrat machine to keep quiet.
Because Barry was such a news maker as the only black in the Senate, plus he could speak like a white man, he was made key speaker for the Democrat convention Barry then decided to run for President to keep the lie going. No one thought to question Barry's background in the Democrat party. Apparently the party was so glad to have someone to challenge a Clinton that they helped cover up the ugly background. The only person jumping up and down warning Barry was not who he claimed to be was Alan Keys and he was discarded as just an angry loser.
Now we have a complete fraud sitting in the Office of the President. Clearly the most corrupt, inexperienced, and ignorant President in the history of the United States who's only quality is that he can lie with a straight face.
Barry Soetoro is as much a fraud as Bernie Madoff and his house of cards will soon fall down.
I can neither confirm nor deny this; I am forwarding it because it is interesting and raises some questions I believe need to be answered. Your comments about it will be appreciated. This info may be the result of what Donald Trump’s private investigators have developed, and what Trump quoted his investigators as saying that they can't believe what they've learned about Obama.

Barry returned to Chicago and attended a semi-Christian radical black church with his first female love, Michelle. Barry admits keeping in touch with Phil Boener who traveled to New York from Occidental to be with Barry and was most likely Barry's first love.
Barry still could not get a real job because he was still a fraud, even with his Harvard degree in hand he could lie and take the Bar exam, but he could not work as a lawyer for a major law firm without a background investigation and he could never pass one. So, Michelle got Barry a job at her law firm. Barry never filed a case alone and never filed a motion. He wrote lots of memos according to the law firm where Barry worked. (I think they knew Barry was a fraud and didn’t want to be sued by previous clients.) Barry rescinded his law license so as not to be disbarred for fraud. The Bar knows Barry lied on his application. Michelle also had to turn over her law license for her involvement in corruption with the Chicago mayor’s office.
With time on his hands Barry, a well spoken black man, was able to get elected to a state office, oddly because he looked for fraud in his opponents’ voter registrations and got his opponent disqualified from running. Barry, a well-versed liar, was a natural in state politics. He used his political influence to get himself a position as a lecturer at Chicago's law school. Barry embellished this position as a "professor of law" which everyone knows is completely false. Barry was not a professor or even a specialist at anything but lying.
On a whim Barry ran for the United States Senate from the State of Illinois. Politicians do this all the time to make a name for themselves even if they can't win. At the time the Republican Ryan was a shoe in for the Senate seat so no real Democrat contenders entered the race, but Barry did. On a fluke after the primary Ryan's wife Jeri Ryan (Seven of nine from Star Trek) went public that her husband was making her have sex with other people while he watched. Ryan dropped out and Alan Keys moved from Maryland to run against Barry Soetoro.
The election got all kinds of press because there were no blacks in the U.S. Senate and one of these black men was going to be a Senator. Alan Keys did his best to warn everyone Barry was not who he claimed to be, but the public saw him as a carpet bagger. Barry kept the lie going and presented himself as a clean black man who talked like a white man. Illinois elected Barry to the U.S. Senate. The Democrats had already begun scrubbing Barry's background when Ryan dropped out.
Phil, Barry's boy friend from Occidental, was found working in California as a communications specialist (receptionist) for a dental hygienist school and given a diploma from Columbia and cover story. The rest of Barry's drug friends were all given jobs or money by the Democrat machine to keep quiet.
Because Barry was such a news maker as the only black in the Senate, plus he could speak like a white man, he was made key speaker for the Democrat convention Barry then decided to run for President to keep the lie going. No one thought to question Barry's background in the Democrat party. Apparently the party was so glad to have someone to challenge a Clinton that they helped cover up the ugly background. The only person jumping up and down warning Barry was not who he claimed to be was Alan Keys and he was discarded as just an angry loser.
Now we have a complete fraud sitting in the Office of the President. Clearly the most corrupt, inexperienced, and ignorant President in the history of the United States who's only quality is that he can lie with a straight face.
Barry Soetoro is as much a fraud as Bernie Madoff and his house of cards will soon fall down.
Real change 2008-2009 Criminal acts Thanks Ramey!!
Is fraud too hard to prove in the federal government, Sonny? If somebody stole this amount of money on stimulous for friends or whatever, why would it not still be fraud? obama and his backers are criminal in my estimation.

Sam, the only members of the Vournazos family I ever knew was the one
who ran the Cameo.Jack P
Jack, that must have been Pete, whom I didn't know. Neither did I know John who had been a great Trojan bounceyballer and Played for an outstanding Earlhy Shawnee State team Harry Weinbrecht coached. Harry used John Vournazos with a couple of other Portsmouth greats, James Hamilton and Dick spencer. According to Harry: "John was 38 years old but the best player in the league."
Pete was John's dad and he also owned the Stone Pipe Inn where Harry roomed. and befriended Pete. Harry's story is in the "Excellence in Athletics on the Portsmouth Area" (pp245-256) along with Jim Fout's story (pp55-60).
Clay Vice played with some fine area teams with John after they had completed High School.
Vournazos is a great sports name in Portsmouth!
Nita Elliott also responded to the Clay's email regarding John's wife's death:
