Sky Harbor musings:
~ Elijah Craig is a solid sipper and goes down surprisingly well at 10:30 am.
~ Was pre-drinking at the hotel bar Friday and met a group of friends that take annual pilgrimages to different baseball stadiums and make a guys weekend out of it. Pretty cool hearing them talk about the different yards, pros/cons/experiences. I'd guess coming from their home park of Petco, every one was a step down.
Pretty wodie tradition that I'd be down for. Didn't Century and his posse have a similar annual roadie?
~ Desert heat is just not that bad when coming from the Ohio Valley. Sat outside each night in 90+ temps and it felt like a low 70's bluegrass evening, just perfect. During the day when you have a breeze the heat isn't noticeable. Don't think the natives realize how much humidity kicks our ass in the summer.
~ Thong bikinis have become the norm. Doesn't matter if they shouldn't (most were agreeable) it was a rarity to see any other style.
~ The influx of west coast residents flocking to this area appears similar to the TN & FL migration. Construction everywhere trying to keep up and real estate prices are skyrocketing.
~ Can't stand places that shut off breakfast at a certain time. It's eggs and bacon FFS and I'm 10 minutes past the mark. Fry a few up and take my money 🙄
~ Speaking of breakfast, don't think I'd ever get used to watching east coast sports over coffee and donuts.
~ Net/net, Mulder, like others recently, haven't been put in the best position to maximize their talents because of our antiquated offense. With O and Chin in the fold, have to think that changes this season.
~ The Louder than Life
lineup is impressive. Can only handle one day of that mess so Friday with Metallica and Janes Addiction is the play.
~ Sounds like the team formerly known as the Redskins are pretty high on JD and his future in the organization. Super impressive to go from off-the-radar to 1st round, then take to the new team like a fish to water. If they could find a qb and with that D, they'd be a contender, especially coming out of the dreadful NFC East.
