Well I watched some YouTube clips on CDR and kind of thought the midrange, streaky outside shot and overly athletic was comparable but CDR could flat out fill it up.

Now I just HOPE Toppin gets there.

Golf and Misc. Randos:

*I'm terrible at golf. Like I'm talking embarrassingly bad. Can't even play a casual round with friends/family without ruining the flow of play with awful shot after awful shot. I was an athletic kid at most things, i.e. football, basketball, track, but I've always been total **** at golf, baseball, and tennis. Just can't hit balls. (I also come from a family of golfers. Two of my cousins were state champions and my uncles are all pretty damn good).

*Why do the caddies dress like mechanics. All of the decorum involved, and they're just out there in coveralls? A vestige of a different time where the help needed to be kept "in their place"?

*I've always been fascinated that pimento cheese sandwiches were a part of the Augusta experience. I worship pimento cheese, so I've been looking for the recipe this afternoon.

*Has anybody in the gallery ever been effed up from an errant tee shot at a PGA event? If so, is it on youtube?

*Been getting back into hiking lately. Did a trail at Breaks Interstate Park last weekend that is basically a loop around the entire park. Walking straight uphill via switchbacks over rocks for about 2 miles was humbling. A hobby as rigorous or casual as you want to make it. Just being outside is important.

*I can't talk about Kentucky basketball anymore. I get irrationally upset about the state of things.

*A nice wok and a freezer stocked with frozen veggies is a great kitchen hack for a quick weeknight supper. Stir-fry ftw.

*I like Pillsbury cookies more than most homemade cookies.

*Most homemade cookies only taste good within 2 hours of baking. They have no shelf life.

*7 mph over the speed limit is the sweet spot. Also, I strictly adhere to speed limits in work zones, school zones, and neighborhoods. I think safety is paramount in those areas.

*Anybody else into board games? I love a good board game. Monopoly is trash, and I don't really like Clue, but I'm all in on the rest.

-I hate card games that don't involve money, though.

*I've gotten really good at leaving business related voicemails. Straight to the point. Repeat my name and number twice.

*Nintendo Switch is a lot of fun, but they just don't pump out the games like the big boy gaming systems.

This ridiculous move Spieth is drilling on his practice swings drives me nuts. He’s slipping back into robot mode.


-Caddies don’t get to choose their wardrobe, bub.

-Not sure if it’s a board game technically, but check out Klask. It’s bad ***.

Parcheesi is an awesome board game and, other than Monopoly, is the best family/friend “fight in a box” game out there.

Chess is my favorite game to play, even though I’m fairly mediocre at it. I don’t consider 2 person games “board games”, even though “technically” they are.

For us NKY uk/cincy sports fans, Aristides Aquino hitting second tonight and Tommy Pham batting cleanup is about as depressing as our hopes are for Cal to turn this thing around.

Thank god for Joe Burrow, that man making the Brown family look competent should more than guarantee a "lifetime contract" for him in this city.

- Took me like 3 months of my wife getting pregnant to realize that most of the time you’re actually doing the people offering you toys/clothes/etc a favor as much as they are doing you. It’s a thank you/you’re welcome situation.

- Few movies nailed marriage quite like “Knocked Up” did with Paul Rudd/Leslie Mann.

- Speaking of Leslie Mann, she’s the the most underrated actor in Hollywood as far as I’m concerned. Steals every scene she’s in.

- Of course, I’m no longer at UK but I imagine Will Levis is reaching the upper echelon of UK “Big Man on Campus” lore. Not there with Tim Couch, Sonny Collins, John Wall, etc. quite yet but approaching that air. Charisma.

- Ian Noe’s new album is awesome.

- Name a better 1-2 in modern country music than “Seminole Wind” and “Straight Tequila Night.”

EXCITED AS F*CK FOR KEENELAND RANDOS:

- Picks for Keeneland are made (barring scratches).

I have three Picks 3, and one each for the early Pick 4 and 5. Will top it off with the Pick 6.

My early keys:

Race 4: 10
Race 7: 8
Race 8: 5

Live longshots:

Race 2: 5,7
Race 3: 9
Race 9: 1,5

Ready to go through the ticket window, take in that Paddock view, go see the TVG crew, take that first sip of a $9 beer, corned beef sammie, and soak in the track.

I am not even going to worry about the weather.

Gang, we all know how special this track is. Goosebumps as I type.

- Speaking of which, YG (featuring J. Cole) - "Scared Money" is the official song for MattsCats at Keeneland/Derby.

Then we transition....

- BbDK's music posts last night got me thinking of underappreciated songs.

8 from the 80s:

Wang Chung - "Dance Hall Days"
Robert Palmer - "Every Kinda People"
Steve Winwood - "Higher Love"
Johnny Hates Jazz - "Shattered Dreams"
When In Rome - "I Promise"
T'Pau - "Heart and Soul"
ABC - "Be Near Me"
Howard Jones - "Things Can Only Get Better"

- Doja Cat and Dua Lipa are quickly climbing my "Shew Wee" list. Huge fans.

- Town House--barely--over Ritz for peanut butter and crackers.

- Biggest pet peeve at the moment: co-workers that won't clear the timer on the microwave to get it back to the clock.

- Seagreen blazer, light pink slacks, slim fit, Easter-ish button-up, and horse bow tie with all that will connect the former description.

It's Spring time (kinda), friends.

Plan on wearing my snow boots and parka to keeneland on Saturday but doesn’t make me any less excited to go. MattCats post just further pumped me up. Heading down to my old Kentucky home tomorrow, can’t wait. It’s been almost 20 years since I’ve lived in Lexington but I love that place as much as anywhere else.

I remember DeChambeau was going to unfairly take over golf 2 years ago and he’s four strokes behind one-legged Tiger Woods.
