Well, in my last blog, I mentioned how excited I was for a weekend of The Masters golf tournament. And, boy, we were not disappointed. It was arguably one of the best finishes in Masters history, and the storyline of Rory McIlroy finally vanquishing the demons and...
Ah, one of my favorite weeks of the year has arrived. Spring has sprung, warmer weather is here to stay, and all attention will be on the Masters coverage from just down the road in Augusta. If you are a golfer (or golf fan, or both) like me, this is possibly the best...
I can’t remember a topic more talked about, misunderstood and misrepresented than the recent chatter on tariffs. As tariffs and their use (in the United States) have become such a controversial political football, I’ve found that the misinformation being put out by...
