For those who don’t know: My Dad has been diagnosed with ALS & Dementia. We have had extensive testing & consults. He has 6 months to live... maybe. I am devastated. In the car today he says “I wanted to see you make it to the big leagues”. I’m trying Dad, promise. 😔

- Lanes set up with 55” overhead displays. Will have Rapsodo and @PitchlogicS data available.

- If you are ever going to bet on anyone, bet on yourself. Double down if you have to. Deep down you know what you are capable of accomplishing. Set the noise aside and listen to yourself. You will do great things.
