Oh, Kentucky

"Dream shattered."

Meanwhile, in Columbia, ...

Good jobs news from Covington.

In Lexington, they're paving paradise and putting up a new Big Lots. Or something.

Rebuilding in West Liberty.

Drillers 18 at Rage 52.

Independence Simon Kenton and Taylor County won the 2013 Ebonite/KHSAA Bowling Championships in Louisville. But, hey, I had it wrong last week--this was the second state tournament. Scott County and Louisville Pleasure Ridge Park won the 2012 boys' and girls' titles.

Oh, Kentucky

Great jobs news for Louisville. Good for Lexington, too? Bad in Ashland.





Kentucky's sporting set is in for an exciting Friday. Kenny Perry got (very) hot too late last weekend; let's see if he stays that way when he tees off at 10:50 Central in West Des Moines, Iowa, this morning. That's probably about the time all of the Commissioner's Cup-winning EKU Colonels will be enjoying their made-to-order omelets at the OVC Honors Brunch in Nashville. Then, come lunchtime, the Bell County High football team will be hawking hot dogs at the Pineville Pic Pac. And then, this afternoon, UK opens play in the NCAA baseball tournament at 3 Central, against Kent State, in Gary, Ind. At 6 this evening, it's Louisville's turn--against New Mexico State in Tuscon, Ariz.

This Weekend's ... (cont.)

Thank you, GoHeath! I'm hoping for a surprise--somewhere, anywhere, but especially in West Paducah--in Friday night's games. Here are some others that intrigue me from the weekend ...

Knox Central at Harlan County. He can't go home again, but he can try to hang the first loss of the season on the team that resulted from the consolidation of his old school.

Harlan at Leslie County. The home-standing Eagles of Hyden have been improving their standing.

Prestonsburg at Betsy Layne. So, too, have been the Bobcats of Betsy Layne.

Middlesboro at Morgan County. Jay Compton reported in The Middlesboro Daily News that the Blue Jackets were headed to West Liberty yesterday for tonight's Sorghum Bowl throwdown. That's fun to think about.

St. X at Louisville Central (No. 1 in the Associated Press Class 3A poll).

Beechwood at Elizabethtown. Here's hoping Etown's homecoming dance is happy, anyway.

Russellville at Franklin-Simpson.

North Hardin at Grayson County. The soccer players are arriving.

Edmonson County at Logan County. Our neighbors across the street, whom we love, are grandparents of one of Edmonson County's running backs.

Newport at Ludlow. This is the Kentucky that I want to next know more of.

Hopkins County Central at Muhlenberg County.

Bishop Brossart at Newport Central Catholic (AP 2A No. 1).

Glasgow at Somerset.

Hebron Conner at Crestwood South Oldham. Time to get serious, just as you were saying.

Indianapolis Cathedral at Louisville Trinity (AP 6A No. 1).

Bell County at Wayne County. Meanwhile, back home in Pineville, ...

Fort Thomas Highlands (AP 4A No. 1) at Covington Catholic on Saturday.

Adair County at Bardstown Bethlehem. This would be a fine trip. I'd go one way up and the other way back.
