Lara Travis Calls Out Her Husband, TNF At Stadium Swim & Oklahoma Man's Massive Raccoon Is Missing
Thursday at The Masters on Masters.com was heaven
During Thursday's opening round, Masters.com coverage didn't have broadcasters. All you heard was course noise, ambulances, golfers talking to their caddies and the sound of club faces striking balls. I put noise-cancelling headphones on and relaxed for several hours. It was unreal. Today it seems they're going with broadcasters, which is disappointing, but I'm not going to cry about it too much. The Masters gives all this coverage for free, and it's excellent. That's a change of pace these days.
• Philip Rivers seems to have this superpower to get to 9-7 or 10-6 and play in a Wild Card game. Suddenly he has the Colts in a first-place tie with the Titans as the AFC race to the playoffs starts to take shape. The Titans go to Indy November 29 with the division on the line.
• Anyone cancel their upcoming plans because a politician threatened them with a lockdown? Didn't think so. Here in Ohio, there's a very good chance next week Governor Mike DeWine will close bars and inside seating at restaurants. That's the only way people will be stopped from going out. I can drive by Bob Evans and there are triple the number of cars from 90 days ago. Old people need their two eggs and sausage. The white hairs lost their patience long ago with COVID.
• Did you see the news this week out of Minneapolis that there's a debate on how to handle rising crime after the city voted to abolish the police? Seems like things are going well up north these days.
• You're damn right I'm going to enjoy another college football Saturday. There might not be a classic matchup to sit down and watch while pounding a dozen wings and a few beers, but I'll survive. Wisconsin-Michigan could be the final game these teams play in 2020 if politicians get crazy next week. I'm soaking it all up and not complaining one bit. Notre Dame-Boston College will have people in the northeast mesmerized. Everything will be just fine.
