True story: I once asked Karl Malone for an autograph after a Jazz-Timberwolves game. He just walked right past me like I never existed. Kevin Garnett was standing nearby & said, “Don’t worry kid. He’s an a**hole.” That was the moment KG became my favorite player

Rumors are some #Vikings starters would quit if the team forced them to be vaccinated. If so, please quit. I’d rather root for a 3-14 team of guys who care about ending this pandemic.

The last 16 months has been the most trying time of my life. Being laid off just before a global pandemic while trying to care for a brand new family on Bay Area costs was challenging & humbling. Thankfully, my patience & persistence has paid off. More to come on what’s next.

Dear confident ASU hoops fans: Your team is good this year, but chances are will not go undefeated. They will be underdogs Saturday, meaning them losing to the Cats (another good team, btw) in Tucson is not nearly as unreasonable as you seem to think.
