Know what you really need
The sign out front of the McDonald's near our house says that they are "now hiring closers." Ludicrous. Everyone knows they need to focus on finding a decent shortstop and a couple of solid disciplined hitters with fast bat speed and patient understanding of pitch selection. #BaseballHumor
In Pursuit of Greatness
I don't really like to brag about my professional accomplishments; it can seem tacky. However . . .
