  1. The rewards in education for me come down to making a difference in someone's life. Anyone, in any career, can do that. When I was first a sales manager, later a VP, I had my brag wall. When I was feeling low I could gaze at the plaques and photos. By the end, I was really proud of the employees I hired and how well they did. Same thing as a golf coach. I've played my best rounds, now it's about helping others. Today we combined the ability of a 16 year old with fifty years of playing experience. Very rewarding.
  2. One under par 71 today. Moving on to the state finals.
  3. Today was the semi finals of the state playoffs. We just couldn't get enough birdies and we felt like we were losing ground but the 74 has us only a stroke back from advancing to the finals. It's a bit chaotic. The top three teams and the top three individuals not on advancing teams earn a tee time at state. So scoreboard watching is a bit of a challenge. We're going to work our gameplay on the front nine and see how we stand. We're paired with three good players so it will be fun golf to watch.
  4. Can we just stop the entire walk up song thing? It's really been played out.
  5. When you have a roster filled with guys who can't run to first or out of the bullpen without hurting themselves you do strange things. I can't wait until all the humans are replaced by electronic versions. Starting with the umps is nice, but I'd rather have robotic players that don't need rest.
  6. I'm wondering how many MLB players are one or two years recovering from major injuries.
  7. Who are you? Hahn will tell you the kids are alright. Personally, I can't explain my generation's ability to believe this crap.
  8. Let's go back to play until one team scores 21 runs. Those games only lasted six innings or so. Damn younglings ruining the game. They don't even wear a nice tie and fedora to games and tell me to put out my cigarette. Let's end this with a home run derby shootout. Three batters, five swings each.
  9. I'm all in on ties. I actually don't mind the rule. Hell, it's been all downhill once they started counting fouls as strikes and only four balls for a walk. Damn changes to the game.
  10. Replacing the '97 White Flag Trade will be the '23 White Bandage Trade. Can Journey record "Don't Start Believing"? Phrase to burn Multiple Championship Seasons
  11. Somewhere in an office at 333 W 35th Street "Get Leury's agent on the phone . . . We're going to need him"
  12. Shall we start a predict the next injury pool? Zach or Seby must have stand by tickets waiting for them.
  13. Rookies are streaky(tm) I'm not surprised, I even expect he'll have some stretches even better. And some stretches that will invoke fire Hahn comments.
  14. What's it been, ten years since he's been employed working in a dugout? That's a lot of time to make up. I don't think we want to try that experiment again.
  15. Being cautious with Joe so he's available for the playoffs. Hahn is playing chess while everyone is playing WTF?
  16. That describes every AAAA and just about every AAA pitcher.
  17. Ozzie was the king of Sunday lineups
  18. Which when discussing the distant future we should ask when does The Show replace human players?
