Had the awful experience of saying goodbye to my father today. Of everything he taught me, I think my favorite thing is to always laugh, especially when times are tough, because laughter will help you get through anything, even losing your Dad.

Damnit I am going to miss you.…

This is awesome. “HE GAVE EM CHICKEN! HE’S A MAN OF THE PEOPLE!”

Tiger’s 100th Masters round is in the books.

Had an absolute blast at the Luke Combs concert last night in Milwaukee. @kaylakriesel winning meet and greet tickets, made the night even more awesome.

At the direction of President Biden, U.S. forces in the Middle East on April 13 intercepted dozens of missiles and UAVs en route to Israel, launched from Iran, Iraq, Syria and Yemen. Our forces remain postured to protect U.S. troops and partners in the region, provide further…

They clearly aren’t aware that 99% of the Iranian drones didn’t make it near their targets in Israel before being shot down.

Crazy Footage from tonight showing what appears to be an Exo-Atmospheric Interception, an Interception which occurs Outside the Earth’s Atmosphere, of an Iranian Ballistic Missile over Israel; the Intercept was likely conducted by the Israeli “Arrow 3” Hypersonic Surface-to-Air…

US military has shot down “at least dozens” of Iranian drones en route to Israel tonight; US military engagement ongoing: senior US official tells me.

We made it. Tailgating and watching The Masters before the concert.

If Iran actually launches missiles at Israel, that will be an escalation and all bets are off.

It feels serious when they break into the Masters coverage, but this feels like a retaliation by Iran that doesn’t intend to escalate. Iran does not want to feel the full might of the Israeli Military and definitely doesn’t want the US military to get involved.

That montage for the notable players to miss the cut was funny. Very “in memoriam” feel to it.

Killing some time in the Third Ward before the Luke Combs concert. Cheers!

“The Beast” at Sobelman’s. The photo does it no justice, but there is a pint glass to give you an idea. It is definitely sized to share.

Golf is the only sport where fans go to the event dressed to play. Imagine a football fan showing up to a game with shoulder pads on like it’s nothing.

Day 1 of T-Ball Tykes Camp.

Thanks to College City BEV for having me speak at their employee meeting. If your organization could benefit from a positive, uplifting presentation, visit johnkriesel.com for my booking information.

That was not an inspiring performance by the Wolves. Hung in there for three quarters, then morphed into the 2009-10 Timberwolves in the 4th quarter.
