Now that inventory is done, I thought it would be a fun idea for your ol’ buddy Uncle Max to take advantage of Throwback Weekend by looking back at my high school yearbook. Let’s see my accomplishments:
*irritating laugh intensifies* |
VARSITY FOOTBALL (MANAGER) 3,4—I knew I didn’t have the body to take a pounding on the field, but I did have the brain to help things out on the sideline. I mean, you can win without a running game, you can win without a passing game, but you CAN’T win without properly laid-out uniforms!
VARSITY TRACK & FIELD 3—After two years on the JV squad I was ready to step up to the big time in the shot put. Unfortunately my mind was ready but my arm was not, and I spent my whole senior year learning how to write with a seriously torn shoulder muscle. Let that be a lesson to you kids out there—trying to impress a cute girl isn’t worth injuring yourself, even if she IS the athletic trainer.
STUDENT COUNCIL 2—As I remember it nobody from my homeroom wanted to run, so I was “volunteered”. There’s nothing like spending an hour every month listening to whiny teenagers complain about school lunches.
VOTED “MOST LIKELY TO HIT IT BIG IN VEGAS”—Yup, I was running March Madness pools even in my younger days. Thankfully I knew how to keep my nose clean! And yes, I already checked—the statue of limitations has passed.
Friday Night TRUCK SERIES Dead On Tools 200: Ben Rhodes—two in a row to get me on the board in the Trucks.
Saturday Afternoon XFINITY SERIES Mahindra 200 (1 win): Justin Allgaier—two in a row to help me forget that I didn’t pick The Gator last weekend.
Sunday CUP SERIES Goodyear 400: LAST RACE’S WINNER picks Chase Elliott. THE ROULETTE WHEEL picks 16th in points Tyler Reddick. FAVORITE (1 win): Ross Chastain—upgraded to “Favorite” status whether Teresa likes it or not. NEXT FAVORITE (1 win): Martin Truex Jr.—getting back on track at a rare non-home-track. DARK HORSE (1 win): Bubba Wallace—no throwback needed (but maybe a little pit strategy).
