The NFL Has New Clothes


Several NFL teams have debuted new uniforms in anticipation of next week’s draft. 

Jets and Browns brought back old designs. Bless their hearts.

Texans have a new blue helmet and jerseys. Broncos are finally updating their unis.

Lions have a decent new uni, except the obligatory black jersey and pants. Isn't that unique?

Also blue helmets and pants to mix and match.

Detroit could go two seasons and not wear the same costume.

Good news I guess. Both the doc and the PA say I don’t have another hernia. Most probably just a muscle pull. Should heal over time. Right now running, golfing, or weightlifting would be uncomfortable. I do need to start back exercising.

On the way home Friday I stopped by for a Steak N Shake milkshake, to RaceTrac for my free drink, and a thrift store.

Will & MC are in NYC to see a friend of MC's in a Broadway show.  

Went over to the Earharts for dinner. Salmon and chicken. The Chos were there, and two couples I didn’t know. One lady made special cookies.

Thursday night I watched Jeopardy and the complete CBS lineup: Young Sheldon, Ghosts, So What About Todd, and Elsbeth.

I could be twice as productive – if I didn’t have to do everything twice.

Plusses and minuses of wearing sneakers on the golf course, like VJ Singh.

MICKEY LOLICH  [SABR Bio] record for most career strikeouts by a left-handed American League pitcher was broken by CC Sabathia. Lolich finished with 2,679 K on his AL team, DET. Sabathia’s K total in the AL (CLE & NYY) was 2,965. He once picked off Lou Brock and Curt flood in the 6th inning of the 7th game of the 1968 World Series. Lolich picked off two of the most successful base stealers of their generation. Lolich pitched 376.0 innings in 1971 to lead the majors. Since then only knuckleballer Wilbur Wood exceeded that total, in the very next season with 376-2/3.
