This week as we discuss JYD for the WON HOF, we look @ Year 2. Sylvester Ritter had a great run in Mid-American, where he crosses paths w/Poffos, Bobby Eaton, Andre the Giant, Lou Thesz. BTW we still have a gap in Y2, between June & Oct 1978. gregkleinsoldschoolrasslin.substack.com/p/junkyard-d...

New thing: look at the out of town MLB games and see which ones sound like the name of a death metal band -Laaath -Azcol -Nymtex -Torbal -Milphi (they’re more of a party metal band, they would open for Steel Panther)

Guy on my plane is showing other guy how to use ChatGPT. Other guy says “so can I ask it which [college football] teams I should bet on?” and I love how his first inkling upon learning how to use the thing that is destroying us is if he can use it for the other thing that is destroying us
