I'll never forget how Roy advocated for the Rules of Basketball to come to Kansas when they were up for auction back in 2012. Carolina was home, but he never stopped being a Jayhawk. #KUbball

Let’s go 50/50.

Yesterday evening, @MattDevittWINK gave a mild prediction for light sprinkles, sometime early this evening, almost 24 hours later. Sure enough, I walk outside around 5:30 p.m., and there's mild sprinkles. The man is a weather Nostradamus.

Check the history. Having been along for that ride, I would note it was more Kiker than Hamman and Pendergrass.

WHY SO SMOKY?! 🔥 Heads up SW Florida! A burn in Charlotte County east of Punta Gorda Airport is blowing smoke south into Lee County. You'll likely see and smell it the next several hours. Coverage on @WINKNews.

I’m cheating and taking Bo, Brett and Buck Evan Pflugradt.

My 1st in-person #Florida book event of 2022 will be Monday in Fort Myers, where I'll be yakking about THE STATE YOU'RE IN at SBDAC. Tickets are $45, but there may be an extra charge for your emotional support iguana. Details here: sbdac.com/craig-pittman-…

Congrats on 300.

In today’s ⁦Tampa Bay Times⁩, nearly 40 Tampa Bay Area business leaders endorse #Rays Montreal split-season plan as a “win-win-win” for all parties and push to prioritize a new Ybor City home for the team “on terms that the current market frames.”

Binky’s a local legend.

The man's right about the weather but wrong about this.

I did some “investigative reporting” over the weekend for a ⁦@Gulfshore_Biz⁩ segment airing 7:15ish tonight on WINK-TV in #SWFL.

My threshold is far less than that. Because a $1.5 million deal, for example, could have a big impact on the region and be worth far more than that in the long run, especially well-positioned raw land.

I really like David Ortiz, but I'd rather get a Cameo from Esther Newberg. She's a legendary literary agent and represents Randy Wayne White and Stephen Hunter among many others (and unfortunately not me).

This story…. Should be going national and on 60 Minutes or something. Make it happen Geoff Tracy 💚🥓.

I haven't cut the TV clip, but here's the @Gulfshore_Biz story about Jonesez BBQ. gulfshorebusiness.com/jonesez-bbq-op…

I'll be on WINK in #SWFL around 7:15 tonight talking about the Minnesota Twins spring training home. The CenturyLink signs are gone, because its sponsorship agreement ended. Here's my @Gulfshore_Biz story. gulfshorebusiness.com/minnesota-twin…

Covering that 1992-93 team…. Great memories. Wow. Almost 30 years ago. What happened.

Same. Kansas. Sharpie.

The monument/pedestal dedicated to Robert E. Lee, who was stripped of his U.S. citizenship after the Civil War, was removed from downtown Fort Myers. Buh-bye. Sayanora. See ya later. Not sure by whom, but it happened sometime after dark last night/early this morning.
