@MRACotton It’s nearly our golf holy grail. It was worth the wait.

@MidtownChico Thought he cold shanked it. Truly could not believe what I saw.

@MRACotton However, you’ll remember, on our tv, it looked like the ball was going out the right side of our screen and then it just reappeared a couple of seconds later. Nobody plays like there’s a tree in front of them on every shot anymore.

Well @MidtownChico , our long national nightmare is over. Here it is. Finally. As you well know, he gravitated toward the game by hitting tin cans with a guava stick. On my of the Top 5 shots of all time.

@jarodhitchcock Thank you for posting this. This shot taught me what was possible in moving a golf ball. Mind blowing. It has stayed with me for years.

We've all forgotten how big a deal the senior tour was back in the day & Chi Chi was box office

Luke Falk shared a Mike Leach story that stopped me cold: Two kids. One rich. One poor. Every training camp, Coach Leach told his team about these 2 kids. The rich kid has two choices. Get soft. Get entitled. Expect everything handed to him because he was handed more. Or take the resources, the coaching, the opportunities, and compound them into something greater. The poor kid has two choices too. Say nobody gave him anything. Blame the world. Make his circumstances the reason he never became what he could have been. Or outwork everyone in the room. Luke said the locker room had both. Kids from wealth. Kids from nothing. Kids with every advantage. Kids who scraped for every inch. Same choice for all of them. Ownership or victimhood. Fuel or excuse. The rich kid can waste the head start or build on it. The poor kid can drown in the deficit or weaponize it. Greatness doesn't come from where you start. It comes from which kid you choose to feed. Credit to @coachlukefalk for continuing to share golden nuggets about Coach’s legacy

@SSJWHB There’s a gleem Steven, there’s a gleem.

Martyball.

Sometimes this world wears you out and leaves you cynical … and then you see a moment like this and realize there will always be more good than bad.

Dear Meteorology - Using potatoes as a hail size must stop posthaste. What type of potato; Russet, Yukon Gold, New? The variability is simply too much. I need to know if I can go outside with a Royals nacho helmet or if I need Kevlar.

Cobra is Stallone’s most overlooked action film. It’s well worth a revisit. Trust me, you’ll be cutting your pizza with a scissor for years to come after watching it. It makes total sense.

I genuinely don't think I've ever seen a film critic love a movie more than Gene Siskel's love for UNDER SIEGE

This is one of the wildest MLB stats I have seen in a very long time... Bobby Witt Jr. has reached base 30 times this season, and been left stranded 29 times (97%).

Tommy Fleetwood bringing back the baggy pants. MC Hammer approved.

@allan_cheapshot What?

Steve Austin in high school in 1983. He was voted Mr. Cowboy which is the Texas equivalent of a homecoming king

@MidAtlanticPod Did we ever find out for certain who the Midnight Rider was?

A very special OTD. It’s hard to overstate the impact this Great Man, The Midnight Rider had on his Lil Padna, Cotton.

George Brett last at bat in the big leagues.

@jazayerli If there wasn’t a full bedroom set placed in front of his locker; bed, nights stands lamps, pillows Royals sheets etc., then I question the unity in the locker room.

I can't even get mad at the Twins for this one. No one should be giving Carter Jensen more shit right now than Royals fans. (Except his teammates.)

Six years ago today, as the world was missing sports, the Tupelo Mississippi Daily Journal nailed April Fool's Day. Who's your favorite player on this list?
