TIF – Confidence In NYSGC Hit After More Saratoga Pick Five Confusion
So there is a mutual benefit to what seems like the hottest new relationship in the US. It might just be for a few months, until the next break-up song gets written, but Kelce and Swift are for now America’s newest power couple. And the biggest winner is the sport of American football. For as long as announcers can keep making sly references to Swift songs when Kelce scores, the NFL will delight in the fact that millions of women and girls are now following this football meet-cute.
Most times the Brits have a better perspective on North American news as they are reporting as observers not advocating participants. And they do some listening and research before spewing their venomous hate. Or maybe they understand cuz they had Posh and Beckham after the Spices started to lose their flavour. Or maybe they’re just smarter than Americans.
Phil has a question:
Does PlayAlberta have a futures bet on the date of the breakup.

For speed on Saturday Keeneland’s dirt track was like running on quicksand which makes Booth’s facile victory all the more impressive. The son of Mitole, in a manner reminiscent of his sire, bolted from the gate like a scalded cat with his tail on fire and never was headed. Down the stretch Nash never got close enough to beep his horn.
The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection.

A manager has to convince his hitters that they have to get on base for the next guy and that no player can do it by himself. Sometimes that isn’t easy. In the playoffs, you can get into trouble because everybody wants to be a hero.
