    Catching up here. My dad went to an event that featured Pete Rose and brought home a photo of them shaking hands. My sister sees it and says, ‘that’s a great picture, who’s the guy standing with dad?’

    Who impressed you the least? 2026 NCAA Championship Edition

    I’m almost 70 years old and I know of just one time in my life I refused to shake another guys hand. He was/ is a lying, crooked, cheating son of a b… and if I had to do it over, I’d not shake his hand. I wonder if Mikey will feel the same way years from now.

    When do we have a break tomorrow?

    I’ve shared this before - but you got to plan early. I met my wife in 1980 and our first official date was to the Wilkes Open. A wrestling tournament for a first date? Yes! If she could put up with that, I may have found something. It’ll be 45 years married this August. Get your priorities...
