That’s awesome on the Kraken and scholly fronts.- What I like most about this incoming class is where they're from. Camden, Philly, NC, and the 13th Region. Basketball MEANS something in those places. Big reason why this class is racking up on accolades during the all-star circuit. Not saying they'll compete for a title without a lot of help, just saying I don't think mindset will be an issue with these kids.
- Huge win for MY Seattle Kraken last night. I don't know anything about hockey, but even I could tell that the odds were pretty steep up against the defending champs. Not sure why I decided to follow a West Coast team, I fell asleep during the 3rd period of every game in the series. Still, nice to get behind an underdog and follow them from the ground up.
- Speaking of a big win, my kid just found out that she got a 4-year full ride to the school where she had already decided to attend. Her existing scholarship had already made it financially feasible for us, but today she found out that she got a scholarship she'd interviewed for back in March (she'd been named an alternate). So now she's going for free. Pretty proud dad moment over here. #WhyWeDoThis
Speaking of DJ, clean sweep McDs/Iverson MVP awards, this time sharing w/ Justin Edwards.
The difference between how I felt in 2019 (39) and and how I feel today in 2023 (43 in Nov) is staggering.It's already there with 2 lunatic kids.

Chad also said this at some point, allegedly.- What I like most about this incoming class is where they're from. Camden, Philly, NC, and the 13th Region. Basketball MEANS something in those places.

43 now, and I absolutely felt like crap until I decided it was enough. Went from 230 to 205 and been in the gym regularly since Feb 20. It’s harder to get into shape, but already feeling better and much more like me again.
Hearing one of the top artist in the world rap about Shelby Co is just weird, man.
The first kid his Nike Label signed to a deal was DJ Wagner. You're such an idiot.
Pretty much my thoughts exactly.Practical Move out of the 10 hole is the range I was hoping for. Also love Forte and Angel of Empire together in the 14/15. That will be a trifecta for me.
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feeling better when I'm feeling no pain
I went to the Padres-Reds game tonight.
I'm not a big baseball fan these days and generally don't pay attention until the playoffs start. So keep that in mind.
-I could name almost the entire Reds lineup from the late 70s, but I couldn't think of a single player on their team this year. I thought when they announced their lineup that I would at least recognize a couple of names. Nope. Hadn't hear of a single player on their team.
-I was completely shocked to see that the NL has a designated hitter now. I totally missed that change. Last year?
-The crowd was pretty full and pretty rowdy for a chilly (50s and windy) Monday night game against a non-rival. Tatis got a huge response from the crowd. I learned later that it was his first home game back from surgery and then suspension.
-Downtown San Diego has become such a weird mix of opulent/expensive high-rise condos and homeless people on the sidewalks. It's wealth and poverty side by side with not much in between.
Yeah my 11 month old cousin was at our house the other day watching an episode from the first season of Walking Dead and the part where all the zombies are running around Atlanta he turned around and looked at me and said “just like Joe Biden’s America amirite?!? “Every big city in the country is overrun by homeless, street living heroin junkies. God bless America!
To be fair there are plenty of other abandoned cars sitting around the HighlandsHow does Mags have a car sit abandoned in The Highlands for 15 years without getting a code violation or lien on the property? I have a lot of questions because it doesn't seem like he has the knowledge to junk the title.
They have a particularly aggressive lot.Downtown Austin had an elite homeless population. Like right in the mix of everything, people just sleeping in the middle of the sidewalk everywhere. Was pretty incredible, and obviously not in a good way.
Sounds like a great time!! I don’t envy that drive to El Paso though.Currently sitting in a trade show bored to death in Austin. But...in 112 minutes, I hit the road to West Texas and two months trying to see every National Park in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, etc. Car is loaded up with golf clubs, bicycle, coolers and whatever else I could pack in. The rest of everything I own is in storage in Brentwood.
This is a huge bucket list trip and excited. Have been to virtually every major city in North America--but not the great outdoors. Will end it in Colorado and go camping with two of my kids in the Rocky Mountains.
Getting older doesn't mean we have to stop living. Enjoy the ride.
