The Hurley family uses F-words in their Easter Sunday dinner...

The Beasman is not taking UK basketball's season ending beatdown well 24 hours after the final horn. But he is thrilled that Loserville is also out of the NCAA Tournament after losing to Michigan State. It's all sadness in these parts. "Twenty million down the tarlit!" What's next for Mark "Kenny" Pope? Should Kentucky pay more than the $22 they dished out last season for lackluster results? Stay...

The Beasman is giddy after the UK Wildcats pulled off a miraculous victory in the NCAA Tournament versus Santa Clara. So, of course, the next thought is Ls DOWN! Ls DOWN!

The Beasman loves Mark Pope and UK's recent resurgence while Louisville's shorty short, peanut sized, little league loser Pat Kelsey is calling Cardinal fans rat poison.

Louisville lost to inept Clemson over th...

One of the WQMF owners called Terry just as he arrived home after resigning. Frank "Bo" Wood screamed at Terry "You're going to W-F'n-H-A-S and they'll fire you in 6 months. They're just trying to bust up our momentum (at WQMF)." I wasn't allowed to say anyt...

The University of Louisville basketball fan base is spiraling after another beatdown loss, this time to Duke.

The Beasman is severely depressed after Mark Pope's Kentucky Wildcats lost another game, this time to hapless Missouri.

NOPE TO POPE! NOPE TO POPE! Call him Kinny Pope cuz he sucks like Kinny Payne done to them n...

ABC News correspondent Alex Stone brings shocking news about the quality of water on various U.S. airlines. You're not going to look at another cup of airplane coffee in the same way ever again. My advice? Guzzle water before boarding the airline and wear an adult diaper instead of using the airplane's skeezy bathroom. Plus, do you work with people who walk out of the office bathroom stall and the...
