data-mm-id=”_2ss0fog86″>John Calipari and the University of Kentucky released a video on Friday encouraging everyone to do their part of fight coronavirus. This is one of the most straightforward and effective deliveries of this message I've seen since this started. It covers all the basics, but Coach Cal also does a good job of pretty plainly saying this isn't fair, but that's how it has to be right now.To all @universityofky students, I know I'm just your basketball coach but please take a few minutes to watch this. We're at an important stage in our fight against this virus and we need EVERYONE doing their part to fight this. Be safe, social distance and #MaskUpCats!! ! pic.twitter.com/RIUVRJ238j— John Calipari (@UKCoachCalipari) August 20, 2020″It’s not f…

data-mm-id=”_szxpc0mrd”>My son just celebrated his third birthday last weekend. In the best interest of our country, we had immediate family over for two separate gatherings. We had a cake for one and an ice cream cake for the other. We didn't do anything crazy, but we had all of the traditional birthday stuff, except we forgot birthday candles. We didn't mean to, but it just didn't occur to us until it was time to bring out the cake at the first party. After briefly feeling like I had carelessly made my kid's birthday a little less perfect, I pretty quickly realized birthday candles as we have known them should become a thing of the past.In the current climate, it is absolutely insane to think that there is a regular tradition where people blow on food seconds befo…

After dealing with injuries that have hindered his success on the course, and his mother's health problems off the course, he sounds as optimistic as ever about his 2021 and beyond."Hopefully, it’s a little bit more positive than what I’ve had in 2020. Obviously I’m going to do a lot of work in the off weeks. The holidays are coming up and there’s some time to spend with the family which I will do, but I’m also looking forward to working on my swing, trying to do a little bit of change for my back. And then also start working with a new coach so that’ll be fun. Hopef…

data-mm-id=”_gj5r5d3pl”>The Boston Celtics were eliminated from the postseason in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Monday. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, the two engines that drove Boston to great heights this season, put forth two very poor performances. While Tatum can blame his bad night on an ankle sprain he suffered on the first play of the game, Brown had no excuses and admitted as much afterwards. The pair of All-NBA teammates came up short when the moment was greatest for the second year in a row and will watch the Miami Heat take on the Denver Nuggets from the couch. The discourse about this Celtics team would have slanted very, very, very negatively if they had gotten swept after going down 3-0. For good reason, too. Losing in Game 7 doesn't improve things dram…
