Andrew was lucky enough to go to the KU-Kentucky basketball game yesterday. It was the first time he got to see a game at the historic allenfield house. he also checked out the pre-game activities. it will be an experience he wont forget. he has gone to a K. C. chiefs game this year too. he said they were both loud.
we took him to a KU football game this year too. we also took him to a washburn football game when he was younger. next up will be a KC Royals baseball game. then a Sporting KC soccer game.
andrew is really into sports. he lives in Lawrence, a town with great sports programs. he plays baseball, football, basketball and soccer. he plays on a basketball team that is coached by tyshawn taylor, a former KU player.
the only downside to the game he went to was Kentucky beat KU down on our home court. i watched the game on tv. i kept waiting for that run that would put the jayhawks ahead. that didnt come. we were outplayed by an athletic team. they caught us on an off day. we get everyones best shot.
i still have high hopes for this team. they have all the pieces. when the tourney comes, only one loss will send a team home. no matter how good they are. this KU team hasnt played up to its potential yet. they better start getting there. i have a $30 bet at a vegas sporting book on them. it would pay $540 if they become national champs. i bet on them when the odds were 18-1.
yesterday we tossed more wood into the basement. now we have enough wood stacked down there to last about a month. winter should be winding down by then. we will let the fire go out tomorrow so i can clean the stove pipes. last time i replaced the pipes with new ones. the stove fire burns more efficient when the pipes are clean.
i am still encoding into my access file. it is a listing of my cds. it will list the group or artist and the name of the cd. i have seen i bought duplicate copies of a number of cds. so far i have encoded over 650 cds into my listing. i have more to go. i have found some empty cd cases. i dont know what happened to the disc.
today the Chiefs play. they better win. i dont know if i can handle two days of disappointment. chiefs are a 7-point favorite to win. i think they will cover that. we will be watching the game on tv. the baby back ribs will be ready before the game starts. i will put on my mahomes jersey to wear while watching the game.
i have been waiting for the chiefs game all week. i have my chores done. the animals are fed and watered. the only thing i have planned today is to watch the game. a chiefs win will make my week.
go chiefs.
