Charlie Pinson and Joyce Pinson with bobhead Churchill Charlie

Hurrah for Morehead State Eagles winning the OVC (Ohio Valley Conference) title! It's been almost a quarter of a century since the Eagles made "the big dance", the NCAA Tourney. We are taking some ribbing from agent  Mark Frantom  a Morehead State alumni. "What happened to the Big Blue?" he asks.

Here in   Pikeville KY  we are wrapping up the fifteenth region tourney tonight at the Expo Center. Charlie and I are pulling for the "home team" Shelby Valley Boys who have been on fire all season. Their most worthy opponent is Lawrence County.

In girls action, Johnson Central beat Phelps High School this weekend.

Talking Derby



Looking to the Kentucky Derby, I Want Revenge, may be the horse to watch according to equine authority The Bloodhorse. After I Want Revenge's win in the Gotham Stakes The Bloodhorse calls the contender "the total package."

There is a little trepidation about I Want Revenge's jockey, Joe Talamo. A mere 19 years old, Talamo is being compared to my jockey hero Stevie Cauthen. (Steve Cauthen is from Boone County KY) We'll take a wait and see on that note.
