Good grief they crapped the bed again. 22 points in the 1st half. Scored 50pts in the 2nd half...behind almost 30 points from Knecht AND almost 30 from ZZ. Yet we lost. JJJ and Vescovi neither one could buy a basket. Seriously. Vescovi should have gone pro at this point....he would have been a 2nd rnd draft pick. He has had 1 good game this season and probably played his way right into the D league and not being drafted. Hate it for him because he is a true VFL and has given as much as an athlete can possibly give for UT. He came back this season to try and win a title...the talent is there at least for a final 4 run, but they gotta quit crapping the bed man. Barnes has the deepest team ever at UT...maybe his deepest team ever ...when guys cant buy a bucket he needs to sit their azzes down. Even if those guys are 2 covid seniors that he adores.

I think we have to miss 8-10 three pointers before we can make one.

Things are improving. I made a roundtrip to Chattanooga Tuesday to pick up stuff and top off cat food; started feeling bad on Wed. Decided Thursday the best thing was pack up and come home - tiring but OK - worst part was by then ears were so stopped up I couldn't hear anything. Friday drove the wife and her cat to the vet (brought him back with me on Tuesday when I saw he wasn't doing well); vet put him to sleep .. it was time - he was worn out. Wife walked into the vet with the pet carrier without a problem at 5 on Friday afternoon, and on Saturday couldn't stay upright. Got to the point I couldn't get her to and from the bathroom, so I switched her to Depends. That wasn't much better because she was dead weight and couldn't help at all.

Sunday got really bad - don't think my throat has ever been so sore and I hurt everywhere from coughing. I pretty much reached the end on my rope that night - room got fuzzy a couple of times; and I realized she was delirious - didn't even act sick, but a fever that I missed completely headed to 103. Called my son to come over from Huntsville to help, and then called for EMT. So wife was admitted to the hospital with COVID Sun night, and just transferred to rehab hospital today. My son checked in with the hospital, got some things for me, and is back with no bad effects so far. I'm on Paxlovid - makes an awful taste in your mouth; sore throat is almost completely gone, still hurts to cough but that's a lot less, and no fever for a couple of days.

The real blessing is the wife is at Siskin for at least of week of inpatient rehab, so maybe they can figure out the falling, balance, and on off cognitive problem. Seems more likely they will catch it there with daily interaction - nobody else seems to be homing in on the problem. Got up today to do a few things like take garbage out and fix a little more to eat. Back to bed soon - feel reasonably decent - still a bit tired.

Hope you and the Missus feel better bud. Keep us posted when you can. I know your VOL brethren will be praying for yall too. Make sure you really stay hydrated too.Seems like I end up dehydrated every time I get sick, which makes you feel worse and cripples your healing process a bit too. Nobody I know drinks close to as much water/fluids as what Doctors say we should each day. Anyway, get well soon brother.
