Baby Pens are in the AHL conference finals. Led by a goalie who should have been in net for big Penguins in the playoffs. Sergei Murashov. BTW. It would be a great job by someone in Pittsburgh to air their games. I’d love to watch them.

Paul Skenes last 2 starts. 10 innings. 9 runs. 2 losses. That’s not pitching like an ace. And he would be the first to say it.

Feels great to be home. I’m not sure I’m a Disney person.

Hollywood Studios controversy. At the slinky dog roller coaster. Daughter is 37.5”. Ride minimum height is 38”. One Disney ride operator said she was good to go. 2 disagreed. Majority ruled. Daughter had meltdown. Happy Friday friends.

Business picked up at dinner.

Sitting at the pool. Thinking about Aaron Rodgers. Here are the QBs I definitely have ahead of him on my all-time rankings. 1 Tom Brady 2 Joe Montana 3 Johnny Unitas 4 Peyton Manning 5 Patrick Mahomes Do you agree?

Wayne Gretzky compares Sidney Crosby to Tom Brady (I’ve been saying that for years) and LeBron James (who Sid is better than). There’s no one like him

We’re battling at Disney today. Septic or sanitation issue. Supposed to be a pool today. Entire resort smells like fecal matter. Tough spot.

Epcot day just wrapped up. Two rides kicked us off because of technical difficulties. And I dry heaved on a ride simulator called Ratatouille because of motion sickness. All in all a great time.

The figment of my imagination ride at Epcot might be the worst ride in human history.

Is America’s greatest contribution to international cuisine BBQ???

The countries are pretty cool inside Epcot. Like Italy and Mexico. But they left some big ones out. No Poland. No Russia. No Spain. No Australia. I was hoping for a few of those.

Random Take: Rocky I and Rocky II are so much better than Rocky III and Rocky IV. And it boggles my mind how many people disagree with this take.

I didn’t have the 2026 Pirates turning into the 2024 Pirates on my vacation bingo card.

The key lime pie is the best pie. Don’t at me.

An old fashioned and a steak as big as my head. I love vacation.

Update: You pay out the ass to go to these amusement parks at Disney. And my daughter has more fun at the free water slide at the resort. It’s incredible.

End of an era: The 2026 NFL DRAFT clock is coming down the North Shore. For a weekend Pittsburgh showed the football world that it’s an awesome city.

Very underrated beer

Update: the inside of my left elbow is throbbing. It feels like a toothache in my arm. Do you think I need Tommy John surgery?
