Based upon the name of this website, one would think our weekly blog posts would be about sports, sporting events, or the like.
This week my family and I are traveling and I had nothing in the hopper nor anyone to pinch-post (if you’re interested in contributing, let me know) so you get what you get:-)
As our travels last weekend took us to London, one might also surmise there’d be some grand bloviation about watching the Wimbledon finals in London. Sorry to disappoint, but the sum total of my Wimbledon viewing was about three service games of the men’s wheelchair doubles semifinal action Friday night that was airing in the pub we were visiting.
It has been, rather refreshingly, time spent away from sport. Oh, I’ll still check in on the Tigers (bloody White Sox!) and it seems like Red Wings’ GM Steve Yzerman continues to execute the YzerPlan in order to rebuild. (The early reports on the draft have been solid as are those of the acquisition of goalie Villie Husso.)
This might all change tomorrow. A scheduled trip to The Old Course at St. Andrews may yield some word-worthy moments. Here’s hoping ongoing rail worker labor issues don’t scuttle those plans!
