Nick Saban's Ferrari

Just read where Nick Saban traded the two Ferraris that he had for one really nice Ferrari. He gets paid “seven figures” to appear on the Pat McAfee Show each week. Saban told the story of his first vehicle – an old orange pickup truck. Said he earned the money for the truck dragging baseball infields. Said the lessons he learned from that have stuck with him all these years later.

Maybe Saban can get on Jay Leno’s Garage. Or Comedians In Cars Drinking Coffee. He’s already been on Eli’s Places.

Worked until 5:30 Thursday evening. Stuff was starting to pile up in my car, so I finally stopped by Goodwill to drop things off. Got home and spent 30 min cleaning out my car while C was cooking supper. Ceil had more giveaway stuff on the hearth, so I packed a box – and put it in my car. Plus there was a stack of Matthew’s winter clothes on the hearth – so I put them in my car, to take to M on Saturday.

I sold a couple pairs of sneakers, so I packed that box – and put it in my car. Hopefully my car will be back empty by Saturday morning. Will probably fill it up again this weekend.

C cooked stir fry for supper. Watched Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy.

Big wreck on 85 this AM due to rain. Did not effect me.

W&MC and the girls are in Tulsa visiting friends. Will played golf yesterday. Looked like he played the course that had hosted the PGA Tournament a few years ago.

A sampling of Matthew's breakfast items at Bellwood Coffee.

HONUS WAGNER [SABR Bio] is the only National League player to win batting titles in three separate decades, hitting .381 in 1900; .355 in 1903, and .334 in 1911, playing for Pittsburgh. He won five additional times. Of the 25 natives of Pennsylvania in the Hall of Fame, he was the first one in. Wager was in the very first class of players elected to the Hall. Fellow inductee, Pennsylvania native Christy Mathewson was also elected to the Hall’s first class. Wagner received more votes than Matty, 215 to 205. Cobb got more votes than Ruth on the same ballot and is viewed as first in the Hall. Wagner was the first player in the Modern Era to steal home twice in a single game, on 20-Jun-1901. An additional 10 players have joined him, the most recent being Vic Power in 1958.
