I want to watch coverage of George H.W. Bush’s funeral and W’s eulogy but I just cant. It’s only been two weeks since delivering my own dad’s eulogy. Miss you, Dad. Hit em straight.

Our 4- & 5-year-olds were providing notes (all positive!) on my wife’s gnocchi w/ sun dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers & crispy Parmesan at dinner last night. “Like the cooking show you & Daddy watch!” We’ve got guest judges ready if you need them @BravoTopChef

@ChrisCookTTU My favorite Leach/Wes moment was the one time Wes called for a fair catch and Leach said in the presser, “Yeah. I don’t think he’ll be doing that again.”

There are so many fascinating stories from 2000-09, but this one kicked off the Mike Leach era.

@ClintHurdle13 This sounds just like my dad’s mantra on the golf course after missing the green, “chip and a putt for par.” He was teaching me about so much more than just golf. Miss him every day.

During one of the worst losing streaks of my career, our team president walked into my office. Keli McGregor. One of the best men I've ever known. He could have come to vent. To question my decisions. To ask hard questions. Instead, he said: "Cut to the chase, Clint. What's next?" I looked him in the eye and gave him two words: "Shower well." The Colorado Rockies were struggling badly that year. Pregame preparation was solid. Scout meetings, early work, attention to detail. All of it was there. But at game time, the tires were flat. I told Keli: the game did everything it could to us today. We just couldn't meet its demands. Now it was time to reset. "Shower well" means exactly this: • Watch the frustration circle down the drain • Shampoo, rinse, repeat and get the grime of today completely off your mind • Walk out clean, go home, and actually rest Leave it at the ballpark. The game is over. There's nothing left to solve tonight. Keli nodded. Asked if he could share it with the whole organization. I said sure. And then it hit me. This isn't just for baseball. Bad day at the office. Grumpy boss. Missed deadline. Traffic on the way home. You can carry all of that through your front door. Or you can shower well. I've never seen a single problem get better because someone dragged it home with them. The reset is a discipline. Same as preparation. Same as showing up. Either we win. Or we learn. The only real loss? When you don't take a single thing out of a hard day. So tonight, whatever kind of day it was, shower well. Tomorrow is a new at-bat. What does your reset look like? I'd love to hear it.

@RyanHyattMedia @LadyRaiderWBB So happy to see the Lady Raiders back where they belong. I still tell stories of my days covering them from 2001-05 for The UD (now DT) and AVERAGING 12,000 fans a game. Some great NCAA tournament trips in there, too.

Fact. I'm old, moderately cranky and oftentimes jaded when it comes to the world of sports. Watching the #TexasTech @LadyRaiderWBB claim their first NCAA Tournament win since 2005 is the kind of moment that makes me smile. These players don't know it tonight, nor should they... they should just revel in the moment and the win... One day though, they'll look back on this the same way the 1992 Lady Raiders do on their first ever NCAA Tournament win against Santa Clara. That team broke a barrier and set the stage for a massive run by the program over the next decade and a half. . . I hope and think that we're seeing just that tonight from Bailey Maupin and friends. Enjoy it. These are the Good Old Days. #WreckEm #Big12 #MarchMadness

Scott Van Pelt and Rece Davis share an amazing story about Lou Holtz playing golf at Augusta National. Holtz - a member at Augusta - would routinely lay up on the par-3 12th hole for up-and-down pars over Rae's Creek. Legend behavior. 🙏

@JunkWaxHeroes Orel Hershiser was keynote speaker at a fundraiser for Texas Tech Baseball while I was in college. Kid in front of me was getting a ball signed. He stopped the previous person to get their pen, then explained to ALWAYS use a Bic ballpoint pen not Sharpies on balls. Markers fade

Apparently Bryson isn’t familiar with “old man golf.” My dad striped the ball down the middle all day long. When your game isn’t about speed, it becomes about control, and hitting fairways becomes the norm.
NUCLR GOLF@NUCLRGOLF

🚨🇺🇸⛳️ Bryson on President Trump’s golf game: “The most impressive piece is how straight he hits it, he didn’t miss a fairway when I was out there when we played Break 50. It was by far one of the best achievements I’ve ever seen out of somebody that age.”

@ChrisCookTTU Always smiled when he would look over in the baseball press box, wink, then say his trademark “you gotta love it!”
