we've been here 15 years. Every 3 years or so you launch a series of "demise of UK" hoops posts.

It has to be right one of these times...

two weeks ago we were having a customer meeting, the customer required we use Zoom.

In the middle of the meeting, someone hacked in, took control and started streaming hard core porn.

Now the customer is blaming us saying we are responsible for that happening.

I wasn't on the call or I would have taken a screen shot, but the customer is not amused and is making some threats. They demand we use their platform and then blame us for it getting hacked.

Ya ain't the first and you won't be the last. Ive seen it happen in many AA meetings and national news has even talked about it. By now there should be remedies. Haven't seen one in awhile.

Actually, b/w 1999 and 2011 there wasn't much need to opine on the demise of UK hoops, they managed to do it all by themselves...

I'm getting so sick of these Mitch commercials.

15 years? I joined CNNSI in 1998, motherfucker. I still have never experienced the joy of posting like I did the day after dook lost to UConn in the championship game. I felt like I was in 5th grade again, riding the bus to work in SF so I could see what TomAris and tarheeldog, among others, had to say (didn't have a home computer in those days).

Remember the dial up sound?

Matt Jones and Rex Chapman have no idea the damage they are doing to UK Basketball right now.

Or perhaps they do and they just don't give a shit.

Fuck Rex and his I'm UK.

He got his feelings hurt when Eddie Sutton told him to stop dating a black girl , which was wrong of course, but he was done with UK after that. Then he gets busted for being addicted and comes crawling back to the only place that would take him back. Now his life is back on track and he's salty again.

[Jungle Rat]

Wasn't he dating Lewis Billups sister? They guy who blew a Bengals Super Bowl win? Didn't he die young?

Portland mayor Ted Wheeler says he will be moving out of his condo to avoid the protests and rioting that have cropped up outside the building in recent days.

Wheeler announced the move in an email to other residents of the 16- floor high-rise on Tuesday, OregonLive.com reported, one day after a crowd of over 200 people gathered outside the building to demand his resignation, leaving fires and broken windows in their wake. Rioters graffitied and damaged the building and sidewalk and threw a burning bundle of newspapers into retail space on the building’s first floor, leading to the arrest of 19 people.

The mayor said it would be “best for me and for everyone else’s safety and peace” that he find a new place to live.

"Matt Jones and Rex Chapman have no idea the damage they are doing to UK Basketball right now."

They are just trying to repair the damage that "fans" like you and Crotch have inflicted on the program for generations. They are UK, not you...

[hedge]

There's a new sheriff in town in Lexington. They are going to run out the riff-raff. Time to find a new program to inflict your damage upon, you're not welcome in UK nation an longer...

[hedge]

Crotch was never a real UK fan anyway. Not after they hired Tubby, anyway. We all know why...

Meanwhile, notwithstanding the focus on a couple of square blocks of Portland, OR:

US Debt is Now Larger than the Economy, First Time Since WWII
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-debt ... 871.html

The national debt is now roughly the size of the U.S. economy, crossing a threshold that has long worried deficit hawks and many economists.

At the end of 2019, the federal debt held by the public stood at $17 trillion, roughly 80% the size of the U.S. economy, and government projections showed it growing to 100% of the economy in about 10 years. But thanks to trillions of dollars of spending in response to the coronavirus recession this year, and the contraction of the economy itself, the debt now stands at 106% of gross domestic product — a 25% increase in a matter of months.

you are right, we shouldn't have spent a dime on addressing the issues caused by the corona virus.

We wouldn't have had to had dumbass took it seriously.

Trump and the supposedly conservative house (his first two years, anyway) and senate were spending like drunken sailors way before covid...

remember that Texas doctor I linked awhile back that said he had the silver bullet (steroids) to his Covid-19 patients recovering?

The AMA says there is some truth to that
