this book (conversely to what it tries to do) makes you long for the days in sports where they don’t care about stats but rather if someone just has the look
I like this book unreasonably because my son started playing baseball because we had nothing to do with it.
Fact finding and hypothesis and economics making me engage more with my children somehow? Of course . And .. I may be annoyed, but not bored. perfect.
"he hit a home run and didn't even realize" dude i dont even care about baseball and i freaking love this movie. when motherfucking Christ Pratt (Mario) knocks that home run to save the game and the music comes in like "buuuuuum bum bum" i get so fucking amped oh my god
In college I went to the same Mexican place every day for a burrito, got the same coffee at the same Dunkin’ Donuts every morning Years later im in a new area following the same philosophy, I eat a chicken bruschetta wrap at the same place every time I go out for lunch and still get the same coffee at the same local Dunkin’ Donuts every morning. I frequent the same full service gas station, go to the same mechanic, Kevin, buy groceries from the same local mart, get my hair cut by the same barber, buy any and all hardware misc from the same little hardware store, Jeds. When your order gets prepared the second you walk in, and you have a relationship with your daily’s, your life is in a better place.
And I mean completely out of cell service with the only option for connection being a 20+ minute drive to town. Just got back from this and feeling REFRESHED.
