Tuesday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

Boston Celtics paying what it takes to keep the championship team in tact, They just, as everyone expected, gave Jason Tatum a $315 million supermax contract that makes him the highest paid player in the NBA (for now) and a 4-year $125.9 million contract to Derrick White. Their top 9 players from last season's roster are under contract plus their top 2 draft picks. Wick Groesbeck and the other top team owners took this opportunity to sell the team. Not my money but can't help but think I picked the wrong field. Please Subscribe, hit the Like button, or share the Link. Thanks!

Monday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

Should have noted that yesterday was the anniversary of the beginning of the Battle of Gettysburg on June 30, 1863. It is perhaps the most significant battle in US history. It's sad that more attention isn't paid to it. As always please Subscribe, hit the Like button, or share the Link. Muchos gracias!

Think the aftermath of Thursday night's Presidential debate is a prime example of why so many people turn to sports as a distraction from politics, It's all everyone seems to be talking about these days.
