Prayers for Bob McKellar and others in the path of Tropical Storm Debby. Significant flooding is expected along the Georgia, SC and NC coasts. Savannah and Charleston are in the middle of it all.

The Logo passes at 86. https://www.nba.com/news/jerry-west-passes-away-at-86 I've seen many Top 10 lists that don't include Jerry West. I wonder how many authors of those lists ever saw him play ...

I see Will in the field for the Korn Ferry tour event this weekend. Glad to see him back playing again.
