  1. Joel Sherman just broke the news, Juan Soto to the Yankees. For a ton of pitchers including Michael King. Kyle Higashioka also heading to San Diego. 

    Good that they got this done before Ohtani signs. More bidders is generally a bad thing for the team that you cheer for.

    Can you tell I was raised Catholic?  "Forgive me Father, for I have sinned...."

    You couldn't have that in Church of England. "Vicar, I have done many bad things!

    Well, so have I....drink 5 Bloody Mary's and you won't remember."

    I actually took one guitar lesson in my life. When the guy said I'm here to teach you how to read music, not to teach you how to play your favorite song, I quit! And then learned everything by ear since that day. I've always had a good ear for music. One of my very minimal talents. 

    I taught my oldest daughter how to play guitar. Now she is better than me. It's funny, they say you either have the ear or you don't. I've tried teaching some friends, but they just don't have it. At all!!! Hot dog fingers are the biggest problem. 

    My cello teacher taught me to read music when I was 9. Did it for 2 years, and was pretty good for a little kid. Dropped it for the saxophone, hated it! Started playing guitar in 9th grade, my instructor was pretty cool, we went over reading music for a couple weeks to get me back into it, but he realized pretty quickly that I just wanted to jam to my favorite bands. He was cool with that. He said, "hey, you're paying me, I'll teach you what you want to learn."

    Then I realized I could sing. Immediately dropped the guitar lol. Singing got me a wife. 😎

    My brother has done a lot of traveling throughout the south but he still puts Dinosaur BBQ against the best of them. Granted I find the Buffalo and Rochester locations aren't as consistently good as the Syracuse one... Even still on a bad day they're good.

    But between the two of us, we've always found the Syracuse location to be nothing less than excellent.

    That's because the food in central New York is just plain better. There's literally no other culture there. They have to do something well. They chose food.  😉
