RUPP RAFTERS PEOPLE

Decided to follow folks over here after RR closing, mostly lurked there but may add my 2 cents more often here

Duke boy Somerset Kentucky high flying General Lee, what about the Dodgers 😆 🤣

As a lifelong 45 plus year Dodgers fan,I don't feel bad the Dodgers buy the best then kick a$$ and take names. My Dodgers struggled in the 9o's while New York paid it's way to the top for years.

It's complete BS what they did to Pete Rose. Until Rose Bonds Clemens and few others are in the Hall of Fame, it means nothing. They all juiced they just got caught. Bonds still had to hit a 100 mph pitch.


Anyways, LA messed up letting go of LUX,he's a good player. Reds have a dangerous young core if they can hold it together.

The Reds will hold onto each young star until the trade deadline of the final year of their contract. Then they will be Yankees or Dodgers. Such is life for a fans of small market teams. No change in sight without a salary cap. No salary cap in sight when the players union will not have it.

Happy birthday America!

Welcome!

What do you do that has you living in the Philippines?

Retired. Wife has family here and she had a family emergency, but we plan on going back to the states within a year or so. It's ok over here, but hard to watch sports like in the US. YouTube supplied me this past season of Pope's first year. But once the NCAA tournament started I had to improvise as those games were cut off. Luckily I got friends who would stream the game for me on Facebook messenger and I watched the games that way.

It was awesome seeing the General Lee jump the fountain 😆 🤣 😂

Kershaw has carried the Dodgers for many years. Truly special to see a guy stay with one team the whole time like it used to be.

Thanks for the update on mad max. Dodger fans are tough on him but he's a gamer.

You think Atlanta wants a do over on Freeman?

I am lucky and fortunate to watch Gibson live in 88,that was special. What Freeman did to the Yankees last was majestic. Hid kid was fighting for its life last year during the season plus he wears long sleeves to honor his mother, true professional role model on and off the court.

Anyways, I'm not a Reds hater. My family is all Reds, i just hate the color red ( UL sucks), i don't own a red shirt lol .

That was cool to see that jump take place here in Kentucky. I had no idea they were planning an event there. John Schneider even came in to see it. Freeman and Kershaw both are guys easy to get behind, even as a fan of another team. Both have played the game the right way their entire career. Crazy to think how Freeman played parts of 3 years in Atlanta while Chipper Jones was still there, and Kershaw around even longer than that.

One of my best friends lives in Tokyo with his wife and kids. He's an IU fan (ugh), but will wake up at the crack of dawn and find a way to stream those games. I'd clearly do the same, because it's All Cats Everything.

Welcome to the board!

Turns out changing my defunct email address on the now defunct RR a few days before it all went south wasn't a good thing, Mike.

I also changed my email associated with my RR account before the migration, on the 29th, because I could login to On3 using the same address and same username (with no history) due to an old KSR account when I used to comment on articles.
I had read where exact duplicates might have one ID discarded and I didn’t want it to be my RR one with all my history. So I changed my email for RR and slightly adapted my username at On3. Still can’t log in to RR, gives the email/ password error message.
Has anyone else who didn’t have a HOB subscription been able to login at RR with the account-associated email and password without needing to start over or reset the password? (I’ve read of signing into Google, but since I’d never done that before doubt it would work with me using a non-Google address).

I’m just here for a good time!

Testing. Hope there isn’t anyone here with “Cal” still in their names

VERY occasionally I see a "UK fan" (judging by their avatar) on X still taking up for Cal and/or talking about him like we missed out on something. This flared up after the loss this past season...but I saw it a few scattered times throughout the season.

I feel sorry for those people. It's the weirdest kind of fandom: to just be caught in the past like that. Makes no sense at all.

I can't think of many worse user experiences than what they did, taking a hardcore dedicated group of users, jerking them around for two weeks, and then breaking the system and hoping Matt Jones serving as a calming voice would be enough to keep everyone happy. They bought a product and then immediately alienated their most dedicated user base. Some people might call that a bad approach. I'm not sure what the rules are on profanity here yet, so I'll just stick with that for now.

Welcome aboard. I don’t suppose “Club 68” refers to the 1st nightclub I ever entered? Lebanon KY 1988. Fire Dept was the band.
