Hey y'all - looking for a contact at Peyton Manning's production company. If anyone has a hookup, give me a holler. :)

I'd love to credit whoever wrote this. No idea. But I'm 100% with its message. When I think of how the '80s ethos, "Greed is Good" has metastasized, it surprises and depresses me. Imagine having so many millions, hundred of millions, even billions & caring about nothing except your own vanity.

This Father's Day weekend, we spent part of it watching our Jackson play some hoops. I'm very proud to be his dad. It's like I ordered a Ford Focus of a son, but they mistakenly gave me a Bentley. He's the best.

I was thinking something similar recently. The world feels upside down, but somehow my wife and I produced a 15-yr-old boy, who is kind, empathetic and smart. I don't deserve him, but he's awesome.

You tell that dog not to complain. NIL or not, if he's still on scholarship, he can still hit the books and get an education! :)

I'm sorry, Duncan. I couldn't focus on what was being said because I was watching the guy sitting down and if he was gonna nod off.

Industry folks - I'm looking to get hold of a certain person at William Morris Endeavor. Anyone have a contact there?

Travel doesn't change you? That's such a myopic way of looking at travel. I mean, come on. It's common sense that it does. At least to me.

Industry folk - I have done another pass and completed a half-hour comedy pilot script about a ragtag travel baseball team. Looking for a producer or lit manager to take a look. If you've got a contact looking for such a thing - holler at me. 🙂

I need to review who your basketball allegiances are, and then I'll make a decision as to if I holler and yell at you or not. Haha. J/K.

What about infidelity or fornication and that stuff? How come they never mention that? Sin is sin, right? Oh, maybe some of them have done those things, my bad. Haha. :)

As someone who knows a lot about the game - sometimes it really is as simple as that. The analysts will do what they do best - analyze the heck out of it - but you are right. :)

Trump himself is not "self-assured." I was backstage at an event once when he came walking through. He saw that I was a lot taller/bigger than him and he got very flustered, uncomfortable. I looked down at him, smiled. He wilted like a little flower.

I was just thinking - with the state of the world and every insane thing going on, I kind of can't believe that they are screaming about - a ballroom.

Now that I'm older and (hopefully) wiser, I totally get it - but when I was younger, I was stunned to learn that one of my favorite rock artists/stars was a huge fan of Bluegrass music. :)

My wife and I have a 14-year-old son. He's awesome and we love him bunches. But I totally agree with this. I have zero issues with people choosing not to have kids. Totally get it.

I do sometimes wake up at 4am though, and wonder, did I assign that project that is due today? Haha.

Professor here. Teach a lot of undergraduate writing courses. Thanks in part to AI, I've been thinking a lot more about retirement lately.

I wish I had a default person - someone in my life when things go wrong - that I could automatically blame. A scapegoat that I could cast all my mistakes upon, like they do to Joe Biden. Haha.

A bit off topic, but my wife used that word earlier today and she mispronounced it about three times. She was so aggravated at herself. It was hilarious - and adorable. Haha.

Just shows how out of touch he is and doesn't recognize that the world - and all countries - are made up of regular citizens. He only seems concerned w the elites and leaders, good or bad.

Yes, this. Sometimes I have to step away and have an attitude of "I don't want to know." I don't stay there and eventually get caught back up w everything. But at some point, I just feel a desire to eat some Ruffles and watch old reruns of Happy Days or something.
