It was just me voting this week in the KHSAA basketball polls, so I'll take the blame for anything you don't like.
I didn't put any teams from far western Kentucky in either the girls or boys top ten. Calloway's girls dropped just out of the poll after losing to Christian County last week. If they can go 3-for-3 this week, including beating a pretty solid Graves County team at home Friday night, I don't see why they won't be back in the Top 10 next week.
Paducah Tilghman was probably the closest boys team to making it. I think I still need to see more consistency out of them to put them among the top teams in the state. I did slide in University Heights at #10 after their All A Classic win. They may be a "small school", but they obviously have a ton of talent. They're going to be a tough out come March.
Anyway...here's how my poll looked. The official Associated Press poll is here.
Boys:
1. Mason County
2. Lex. Bryan Station
3. Lexington Catholic
4. Holmes
5 Scott County
6. Lou. Jeffersontown
7. Muhlenberg North
8. Elliott County
9. Lou. Eastern
10. University Heights
Girls:
1. Lex. Paul Dunbar
2. Lexington Catholic
3. Elizabethtown
4. Lou. Butler
5. Lex. Christian
6. Lou. Iroquois
7. Lou. DuPont Manual
8. Marion Co.
9. Franklin-Simpson
10. Montgomery Co.
I'm also pitching around the idea of running a blog-exclusive NASCAR fantasy league this year. If you actually take the time to read this, I might as well try to let you get something out of it. I'll rummage around the station and try to find some prizes to give away to make it worth your while.
I've set up the league through Yahoo.com. Go to this page to sign up. You'll need a Yahoo account to play. Once you create a team it will ask you what you want to do. You'll need to join a group, then join a private league. You'll need the group number and league password. The Group ID# is 25003. The Password is "wpsdblog". Hopefully this makes sense. Tell your friends. We certainly can't have enough people in this. It's free...and there will be prizes. What more can you ask for?
YouTube link of the day...if you don't know by now, I have a ridiculous love for the Rocky movies. This made me laugh.
Speaking of making me laugh...I can honestly say I had never heard of this Amy Winehouse woman until she started hitting all the tabloids for her amazingly poor behavior. Apparently she sings. Apparently. Anyway, this story turned up on WPSDTV.com today. As far as I'm concerned, her picture is going in the Nick Nolte wing of the "Worst Celebrity Pictures Hall of Fame." It's horrifying and tremendous...all rolled into one.
The floor is yours.
