I haven’t cried this much in a Starbucks since I had to work at one starting at 5 a.m. every day. It wasn’t so bad as long as the Seahawks won, and of course Howard Schultz visited. But here in…

I tried to keep up on college ball a bit while living in the Arctic, but I didn’t catch much of it. (You can find northern lights and sled dogs on my Instagram.) But now I am in the land…
God bless John Privitera. He’s such a good hitter. He still wears those silver shoes I first saw during the Super Regionals against TCU in 2017. He is listed on the Bears roster as 5-8, which means I also gained…

Here are some of my favorite horizontal images from the Missouri State exhibition on September 29, 2017. I’m experimenting with upping clarity on action photos. Looking forward to playing with shadows and light on these bright game days! See you…
