I am starting to think Happy Gilmore 2 is the greatest sports movie of all time. Not really, but maybe top five. It’s just the way literally everyone on social media describes anything these days. Everything is the GOAT. The movie did have the most successful opening weekend in Netflix history. I watched it again this weekend. Here’s a list of “Easter Eggs” hidden in the movie. Many think Scottie Scheffler was the unexpected star of the movie, and he did have several great moments. But I thought golfer Will Zalatoris had the most dramatic role of all the golfers.
My admiration for the movie was how Adam Sandler was able to write and produce such a great movie despite everyone’s tremendously high expectations. A decent storyline with several side stories, plus chock full of cameo appearances from a wide range of celebrities from sports and entertainment. Sandler was able to make Jack Nicklaus come off like the next Bob Newhart.
Saturday afternoon I was outside trimming hedges. My phone was inside the house but my watch said I had a call. My old high school teammate Jerry Anderson called again. He helps run a diner in Macon that serves soul food. Hopefully we can stop by tomorrow on the way to Hilton Head. We talked about our upcoming reunion. I stupidly asked him if he had been at our 40 year reunion. He graciously replied that he’d been tied up, and he had – almost literally. He served a 30 year prison term for drug trafficking. What I just learned was that he’s played college football in Tennessee. He regrets returning to Macon instead of getting a job in Tennessee.

Experts predict AI will lead to the extinction of humanity. Not the first time I’ve heard this prediction.

Matthew purchased some camo Crocs, that he’s been wearing all the time. I’ll be wearing my Cros all the rest of the week.
