This is Steve’s brother, Andy. For those who don’t know Steve passed away on Jan 1. Thanks to everyone, especially the golf community, who supported him during his fight with cancer. It meant a great deal to him. I took Steve’s spirit with me to the beach today. This will always be my favorite hat.

Feeling so-so, but CFB will lift my spirits. Big numbers on the spreads and I rarely do this, but I’m going faves in all — Penn State -8, Texas -13.5 and OSU -7.5.
Onward to blowouts.

After waking up, I was just getting ready to post that I feel pretty darn good but boom, after drinking about 5 oz. of Gatorade, I had to rush to sink to upchuck about 5 oz. of Gatorade.
BUT now I feel much better.
Onward with that feeling lasting.

And now a regular attack of hiccups have arrived, about 25 instances starting very early this morning. But it is such a great feeling when after holding my breath as long as I have to they go away.
Oh, and I’m on Chargers -2.5 tonight.
Onward with hiccups ceasing.

Still less than 100%, I’d say about 80. Had to go pick up prescriptions and got winded every 10 yards. Helluva a life.
But I WILL get better and Broncos are at Chargers tonight. That will pick me up.

Good news/bad news: Stomach ache is gone. Replaced, however, with raging headache, body sore all over, especially legs and hips. Onward knowing all this will get better.

Was discharged a little before 8 pm.
Took 30 minutes to find car because I forgot where I parked Monday morning, with security guard helping at the end.
Finally home — for about 12 hours, then back at Mayo for treatment.
I’ve been better but onward.

In emergency building at Mayo awaiting room. Stomach pains just won’t go away. Hopefully I get better soon.
Hell of a way to start the week.

A lot of big spreads today in NFL, including Giants +17 at home vs. Ravens. So I’m on the Giants. Also going with Bills +2.5 at the Lions and Chiefs -4.5 at the Browns.
May my bets be better than my stomach.

Still sick, including upchucking numerous times. Back to doc Monday to hopefully take care of the misery my stomach is dealing up. Must remind myself that things could be worse, a lot worse.
Onward to the NFL for much needed comfort.

Back to being sick. Not horribly sick but enough to force me to be as still as possible. A few things inside me are attacking. Just have to ride it out on the couch. But good TV awaits.

Tic toc to chemo infusion No. 57. No sports jersey pops, but 1957 was memorable — the Soviet Union sent the first 2 satellites into orbit; the Civil Rights Act was passed and signed into law; and the Little Rock Nine integrated a school.
May my 2025 be as memorable.

Big bad Babineau - my greeting every time I saw him - was the best. A gentle giant. A friend to all. A delight to read. He was one of the first to guide me in my first few weeks on the beat in 2007.
Words aren’t enough. He just was good people.

Fortunes have turned. Chargers covered last night for me, feeling much better today. Thought I’d need four new tires for the Captiva but they just had minor leaks & tire shop took care of those for minor charge. Went grocery shopping and of the 12 items I got, 9 were on sale. Touchdown

Time, sleep and medicine have not made me feel better. And my FB picks are pathetic. All in all, I’ve had better Sundays. Maybe Monday morning will be fine.

Still sick, and no, it has nothing to do with going 0-3 yesterday in CFB, with each game having a very good chance of me winning. So, couch and the 85 get a workout today due to the NFL. I’m keying on 49ers -3, Cards -2, Bills -3.5.
Onward with hopeful change in fortune & health.
