Nobody would have picked him, but as a lifetime lover of baseball it hurts that Pedro Gomez passed away suddenly today at the age of 58. Seemed like a really good dude. Fuck.
My favorite line was Armen Keteyian...and I know he practically ripped it off from David Duval. “These young players want a piece of Tiger from his prime on a Sunday in a major.” “The fuck you do.” Lol.
Buddy sent a text today...said his wife decided to shop vac their fireplace and clean up all the ash. When she finished, she turned around and didn’t realize the shop vac lid wasn’t really seated, so the ash was blown around like a volcano all over the inside of the house and covered everything. Sounds about right. Clean fireplace: Rest of the downstairs:
Bunch of teams that thought they had a nice shot to win a title just said "oh shit." Still, as just stated who is to say how well these three will play together but they certainly have the talent to go all the way, easily.
No more "guests" in player hotel rooms. The ESPN article (https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/30699678/added-nba-protocols-prohibit-non-team-guests-hotel-rooms-require-masks-bench) says guests previously have been family members or "longstanding" personal friends. I'm sure longstanding was loosely defined.
LOL. Wonder what market's local pussy will suffer the most.
If you've not already read it, I also highly recommend taking the time to read this long piece from Wright Thompson on Tiger that was published a few years ago now, around the 10th anniversary of Earl's death.

Put me in the camp that thinks the documentary was very well done...Tida referring to Phil as "hefty" made me legit laugh out loud. I had forgotten what a smokeshow Elin really was...whew.
Wife is a teacher, got this as a gift from a parent some time ago. Never opened, not sure when it will be. I do wipe the dust off from time to time. I’ll probably wind up donating it to a local homeless man eventually.
