It's never too early for Heisman talk. Stroud is the front runner, considering Ohio State will waltz to an undefeated season. Caleb Williams will win the west. Can Bryce Young return from his injury? Young, Hooker, and Stetson will split the South. Whoever loses will fade from the spotlight. If Bennett can beat Florida, Tennessee, and Kentucky, will it be enough to propel him to New York?

In all the conversation about roughing the passer penalties, its no longer kosher to use the phrase “put a dress on the QB” – a phrase the media had been using for decades. Not sure the phrase “its not kosher” should be used either, though that falls in the category of being okay to bash Christians and Jews.
Left work shortly after 5 pm yesterday. Ceil was at The Table on Delk women’s ministry. Anna was at a birthday party. W&MC returned from Colorado.
Up early to run 3.25 miles this morning. Working from home today. A 13000 step day.
The Braves have not been swept in a series all year. The Braves have not lost back to back home games all year. Last year the Braves lost their first playoff game, then went on to win the World Series. Hard to repeat as World Series champions.
Pete Maravich played 26 games for the Celtics before head coach Bill Fitch ran him off. It was Larry Bird’s rookie year.
Thrift stores just doesn’t have the allure to me they used to. I sure don’t need more bobbleheads. Matthew said Tik Tokkers hit up thrift stores and buy all the good stuff. I just don’t stop as often as I used to. I really don’t need anything. All I look for are unique items, like the Marvel Comics Hawaiian style shirt I bought recently. A pair of socks with lightning bolts.
A golden time when I moved to Atlanta, and discovering the GT BSU, and later SPdL. Chapel choir and Camp SPdL, Mighty Mites. Went home to Macon after my freshman and sophomore years, then stayed in Atlanta permanently after that – over 41 years ago.
Pujols is one of two players with both 700 HR and 3000 hits, as several have 3000 – Ichiro, Rose, Wagner, Aaron, Musial, Jeter, Clemente, and a few others.
There have been 357 40-HR seasons in history. The 2022 NL HR-leader hit 46, but also led the majors in strikeouts, with 200. These players struck out fewer times than they homered in a 40 HR season.
