The Knicks could do exactly what Krazy mentioned yesterday with Hurley. Interesting to see what direction they may go.
 
Currently on vacation with 5 ages 16-5. Yea the 5YO and soon to be 9YO while on vacation have to be kept up with, but the teenagers are a toss of the keys away and out of mind.

Perfect for me. It’s been 3 years since we hit up St Augustine and it’s great to be back.

- Knicks already questioning if Thibs is THE GUY. He is not.

I hope that organization plucks Dan Hurley and fails miserably.

- Working in the AM and late night on vacation with a drink in hand is my go to in order to limit the amount BS I come back to. 3 jobs finishing, 4 jobs starting and 2 major jobs bidding.

- Bullitt County inspector stopped by today after we pulled the electric inspection and until today we flew under the radar as a “distillery”.

They saw the bourbon barrels and started digging in to realize our property is double dipping as a commercial construction company and a distillery.

Shit just got real for me and our regulations.

- 8Year old(turns 9 on June 4) ordered a $85 King Crab leg dinner as I was chatting up some other folks. Waitress didn’t bother asking if it was ok, and that was going to cost her some tip.

The manager stopped by to apologize and politely explain “we ordered it so we kind of are stuck with it”. Which I immediately let him know I wouldn’t ask him to comp it at all, but service wise if kids can order $85 meals without even a hint of “is this ok” then while money isn’t an issue as far as paying if he wants his server to make a tip he better comp the $20 in tea and cokes after we pay to get her some money.

He did eat every bite and grinning ear to ear so after that and a few drinks I tipped the usual 25% anyway.

- Son was nominated for All Stars but this year they decided nominations lead to tryouts which happen while we are out of town.

Guess we will see what league coaches think of the kid has he has played for the coach.
Heading to St Augustine in a couple of weeks. Probably our favorite beach destination that we have been to. Gringo's Tacos, Harry's and Carmelo's Pizzaria are my favorite places to eat.
 
Pretty proud of my youngest. He's only 10, but has been playing up on an age group with the 11 U Travel Team. Last weekend went up against a Triple A Level travel team in a tournament that should have only had smaller county travel teams, probably with many age restrictions as their entire team looked like 13 year olds. Pitcher was huge, throwing gas and a ton of curves.

My son has had several home runs, but finally got his first Grand Slam. My oldest had 3 Grand Slams and has held that over the youngest's head, but cant anymore. Proud Dad moment for sure.
Better angle but still a little chain link to remove. Congrats on the bomb.

Harry’s is great, but venture 10 miles south to a spot called Commanders. It’s basically across the street where I stay and they farm their own clams.

Saltwater Cowboys is also a great place, and Oasis is a solid joint to go for kids version of seafood(mostly fried) with great crab cakes and mahi etc.

This place is by far our favorite place.
 
Firing a coach who just won you 50+ games 2 years in a row and reach the playoffs 4 out of his 5 years (something neither was done by Knick coaches in a minute before him is rich). Supposedly because he played starters too much and didn't develop a bench. Looks over the Knicks roster ....... What FKN bench was there to develop ? So he should have played the super subs Miles McBride, Delon Wright, Cameron Payne (decent back up PG), Landry Shamet, Pacome Dadiet, Marjon Beauchamp, Anton Watson, and last but not least, Ariel Hukporti ???? So he developes a bench by playing the (I had to actually look up a few of them to make sure they was actual players) shit he was dealt ? great thinking, play those scrubs, lose about 6/8 more games, fall from a 3 seed to about a 6/7 or worse, and make it harder all the way thru the playoffs. If he did that, instead of facing The Pacers in the ECF, he would have faced them in the first round.

Not a Knicks fan at all, but not his fault Mikal Bridges was signed as a stud 3/D guy and failed miserably at both. Not his fault Josh Hart couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, thus teams slacked off him and put their worst defender on him. Yes he played his starters too many minutes, but he had to, his bench was shit. The Knicks bench players make the G-League teams look like the 2017 GS Warriors.
 
Caglianone is 22 and is going to go thru growing pains just like Holliday did/is but at the end of the day in this current era, you need bats, something the Reds have lacked for years. If Caglianone develops over the next 3-5 years as KC hopes, then he will provide more to their team than Burns ever will for Cincy in the same time frame.

The irony of this post is just too incredibly overwhelming. You and your dipshit brother dedicated your entire social media lives across multiple platforms to criticizing Elly de la Cruz during his age-22 season, in which he finished 8th in NL MVP voting and played in the All Star game. And now you're celebrating this can't miss future superstar prospect before he's ever taken a swing in MLB. Make it make sense.

But anyways. Best of luck to young Jac.

We normally stay close to Oasis and it is great too. This time we are going to be staying further down the beach closer to Fort Matanzas.
 
You are one weird dude. Get your feathers ruffled easy don’t ya? Maybe got your websites mixed up? You may need to extend those runs out a little longer and deal with your issues. Ever find that’s reds thread you stupid internet bum?
Name calling is a violation of board rules.

Mods, ban him!

--Not ready for football just yet, but all signs are pointing towards an Auburn trip. Have been to the campus a few times but never for a UK game. Will be hard to top Austin last year, but need something different having been to both Athens and Columbia several times.

--The fitness thread is both motivating and bizarre. My evening jog and the occasional salad would get me laughed out of that corner of rivals.

--Reading "Ball Four" by Jim Bouton. Has been on pretty much every best sports book list for decades but I'm just now getting around to reading it. Essentially his diary for the entire 1969 MLB season. I never played baseball past little league and only half way keep up with the Reds, but something about the sport makes for incredible writing. This one is a truly a time capsule. The term "beaver-shooter" is now in the lexicon.

--My multi-year long search for a quality affordable polo continues. I have one or two Johnnie-O's and I think one Rhoback, but I cannot justify $120 a pop for a casual shirt. My Instagram algorithm knows exactly when my BAC hits the right number for me to throw a few dollars on an unheard of but moderately priced brand which inevitably arrives in the mail 2 weeks later to my surprise. Thus far, all crap quality.

--Golf trip season. Two trips in the next six weeks. One with 28 guys going, ranging from a mix of 70 year-olds who will be shutting it down after an early dinner, to young dads who will go flying out of the gate Friday morning and spend the better part of the weekend trying to get back on track. Tough to beat.

--Golf scramble this weekend. Have to really question the organizers here. Putting a charity scramble on a Saturday during the summer seems like a major waste of an opportunity. Put this thing on a Friday morning or even Thursday. Easy get out of work free card.

--Haven't been to a movie theater since Dune II. A cold movie theater in the summer is tough to beat. Particularly an early show when you come out into blazing sunlight and have a full evening ahead for dinner/drinks, etc. I assume horror and animated movies are about the only things keeping that industry alive.

You really want to piss off a planning and zoning office? Apparently it’s real easy.

Register your business, get it approved, and have all the construction permits pulled then do the same federally and have the TTB add buildings to your bond so that when your electrician pulls a permit and planning and zoning finally realizes what’s happening and threatens to shut you down; you can then simply show them all the paperwork they and the federal govt have approved.

You talk about some mad MFers stomping off in a hissy fit of rage.

The good thing is it was in front of the mayor and as of now they can’t really stop us or hold us back at this phase.

The bad news is now every permit we pull is going to be like a root canal. I guess I’ve saved a ton on attorney fees to this point, but it’s about to really start costing me to have them fight these fights from here.

If you are a golfer and not wearing Peter Millar, I don't know what to tell you.
And there are no poors in GYERO, fork over the $120 and wear it with pride in the golf scramble full of public course morons.

I cut the collar off of an old polo shirt, back in the day. I'd stuff it under the tee shirt I was wearing, like a dickie. That was just for the clubhouse/paying my greens fees. As soon as I reached the first green, that collar went back into the golf bag.

Collar back in the bag, flip flops back on, and I was good to go. If you don't believe that, then you don't really know me.

Have you read The Long Season by Jim Brosnan? I saw him pitch when he was with the Cardinals. The book caused quite a controversy. The White Sox stipulated in his contract that he couldn't write anymore books and he chose to retire instead of signing the contract. SI rated it the 19th best sports book.
