I wore my regular old Omologato Oak Tree Edition watch today instead of my Apple Watch. And if I had a dollar for every time I've looked at it today to check the weather or for a notification, I'd be able to buy another Omologato.

Jarvis, Svech, and Blake is such a killer shootout lineup. I'd ride or die with those three in that spot. #Canes

I was doing some stuff for work and walked into the living room and a minute later the Canes have scored two goals and taken the lead. Guess I’m staying here for the rest of the game.

A+ for the people at tonight’s Canes game in Mario character costumes for MAR10 Day.

I ran in my early 20s a bit but never did any races. And then did nothing until I was 39. I am not running as often as I did when training, but I will go do a mile before my workouts as a warmup.

I did that at 39 and ran my first 5K at 40. The app lies.

That's ultimately going to be the worst part of it all. The race will actually be genuinely good. While everything else around it is... not.

I saw some impressive curling shots at the Olympics this year, but perhaps none more than this.

You’re gonna get Chase Elliott and you’re gonna like it!

Did race car go vroom? If yes, how can boring?

Oh, no, the horror of having to parent your children!

What this exposes, fundamentally, is that if you’re not able to have these conversations with your children, it really means that you’re not able to have them with yourself.

That's why you always play to stop the big inning. Because the math is better when you're playing for one run.

My wife and I are real good at independently getting dressed in the same color.

I feel like Sainz’s best races were when he went rogue on Ferrari’s strategy too.

Thinking tonight that I need to figure out how to steer my son’s special interest into being setup building for iRacing.

Fire truck party on our street. The story we heard was the guy was burning and it got away from him and caught brush on fire around the power lines that run back there between two subdivisions. They set up to use our hydrant to refill the tanks too.

This is AI's biggest problem. It's an expensive solution without a problem to solve. It's also why AI is shoved in everything. They're hoping to stumble onto a use case.

Ty Gibbs telling Bob Pockrass that he'll let his performance on the track handle questions about his commitment is not the answer he thinks it is considering he's been easily the worst car on the best team.

My idea to fix F1 is to just race Miatas the rest of the year

In the O’Series at a plate track though, definitely.

So much for basing the team in Nashville.

2016: Hendrick Motorsports sim driver Alex Bowman substituted for Dale Jr. at Phoenix and won the pole then led 194 of 324 laps at Phoenix.

2018: Bowman takes over the car.

2026: Hendrick Motorsports sim driver Anthony Alfredo will substitute for Alex Bowman at Phoenix.

2028: ???

I saw something today that made me realized the missed opportunity I had to give a child the initials 'TBD'. My parents almost did, as my youngest brother's first name starts with T. Thinking back, there are a few other T's in the line and it is a clear generational failing.

That's a stellar question. I am a little offended by Giglio's discrimination against Star Trek fans who have sports takes though.

No, but LeBron does have wins at more historic tracks like Darlington, Bristol, Richmond, Michigan, Daytona, Watkins Glen, and don't forget Bowman Gray.

Those crusades were often politically or economically motivated, but Christianity and this idea that *we* must protect Israel (there's logic problem here because apparently an omnipotent God can't do it himself) was used as the cover by the political and religious leaders of the day. Sound familiar?

This isn't a new idea though. Political leaders have sprinkled in Christianity and the idea that they must protect Israel/Jerusalem for a thousand years. Prompting "religious" crusades that resulted in nothing more than dead bodies and lasting animosity.

It also further reduces Israel (and surrounding nations and our own) to simply being tools to be used rather than seeing them as a people made in the image of God who are as worthy of love and care and mercy and justice as you or me. That is exceedingly non-Biblical.
