IT'S "HATE GEORGIA" WEEK!! 🐊 Can't believe it has been 42 years since we stormed the field in Jax. @CoachJonSumrall was only 2 years old. 🤣🤣
Jason Heyward had 35.4 WAR thru age 28 season...
then fell off a cliff at age 29.
Ronald Acuna has 30.6 WAR thru age 28 season...
and next season will tell us if he is also cliff diving.
PS @Braves fans... 2026 was Austin Riley's age 29 season.
Cliff dive confirmed.
I was 18, didn't have care... working for peanuts, not a dime to spare... but I was lean and solid everywhere... like a rock. 😅
Wait until you hear about The Pinewood Derby...
When I was in sixth grade, our science class did an egg drop project.
The assignment was to build something that could protect an egg when it was dropped from ceiling height.
I was really excited and spent full weekends trying to come up with the perfect design.
I think I ended up cutting open a Nerf football, making a little space for the egg, and putting that inside a box stuffed with paper. I was convinced it would work.
Then the contest started.
My egg was dropped and broke completely.
As the day went on and the other kids had their turns, I realized I was the only kid in the class whose egg broke.
The other kids had come up with these brilliant designs, and I vividly remember being shocked when one girl had her egg suspended inside a box using pantyhose. How did she think of that? How did I not?
I remember feeling devastated, as I’d put so much time and effort into this thing, and I was the only kid who failed. And I got a C on the project.
I couldn’t understand how the other kids had come up with such great ideas when mine didn’t work at all.
I carried that memory with me for years and remembered it as a story about putting your heart into something and then coming in dead last.
Only years later did I look back and realize that I was the only kid whose parents didn't do the project for them.
I was a 12-year-old competing with adults, had no idea it wasn't an even playing field, and there were consequences.
It had a big impact on me at that impressionable age.
There are a lot of life lessons in that egg drop project.
Yesterday showed how wildly unpredictable the 24-team college football playoffs are going to be! 😵💫
Higher ranked teams playing at home are NEVER going to be guaranteed a win.
ANYTHING can happen... so just getting in will be the key every season.
I am addicted to these videos now!

FINALLY got something back from PSA that I can agree with! 🧡 My first submission gem. @CardPurchaser
Does anyone know of ANY vintage cards (1976 and older) that have received a PSA 10 in the last few years since the grading became super strict? @CardPurchaser
Or is it safe to assume that the pop reports for vintage PSA 10's are pretty much locked in stone now?
Did you see this @CardPurchaser? This is a HORRIBLE decision by Ebay that encourages shill bidding!
Last I checked, Acuna played for Venezuela in the WBC... not "Bingo Long's Traveling All-Stars."
