Missed the first 3 quarters. By the time I checked in, I was hoping Dallas would score another TD and FG for the Scorigami.

November 20, 2022: Thin Skin
It was in the low 20s most of the day here which reminded me I don't think my winter coat has come in yet. I was chilly in a way I'd normally reserve for single digits or worse.

Kenesaw Landis, as I'm sure you know, was the first commissioner of baseball, holding the job from 1920 until his death in 1944.
Pitcher Clark Griffith was a star for the Cubs before jumping to the White Sox when the American League was formed. Later, of course, he was the owner of the Twins franchise while it was still in Washington. His adopted son, Calvin, brought the team to Minnesota.
Ron Cash was drafted by Minnesota in the sixth round in 1969, but did not sign.
