mostly going to get stuff about motorcycles, music, Atlanta Hawks, Florida Gators, and other unrelated things

Bob Horner and I were destined to be teammates somewhere. I signed a letter of intent to play baseball at Arizona State before I was drafted. Bob played at ASU and ended up in Atlanta my first full year in the major leagues—1978. One way or another, it was bound to happen.

From the minute Bob Horner joined the Braves, all us players could see he was good. I mean… really good. And that swing—short and quick, x or and could turn around anybody’s fast ball. And Bob knew the strike zone. He just did not swing at a bad pitch (like I had a tendency to do a little too often…) He was a unique talent and I was very lucky to be in the lineup with him most of my career. All of my numbers were better when he was hitting behind me. And that fact is not lost on me. I know my career was better because of him.

It’s been a hard few weeks for the Braves Family losing Ted and Bobby—and now Bob. These 3 men all had such a profound impact on my career. I am forever grateful.

Nancy and I will miss Bob and our hearts go out to Chris and Trent and Tyler, along with their entire family.

The older we get, the more we cherish wonderful memories and this past month has brought a flood of them back to us. The gratitude we feel for them all has been overwhelming.

Rest well, my friend and teammate.

@elonmusk @JdDelay5150 because you think the justice system would carry this out fairly?

[EJones @TDC_ERock]

@JasonWalkerNBA was I there? I don't remember but I suspect you would.

[EJones @TDC_ERock]

@SawyerMerritt let's not even talk about all the waste and fraud

[EJones @TDC_ERock]

@SawyerMerritt Completely disagree. If I drive 10k miles per year in one EV, that's $130. If I have 2 EVs and drive 10k miles total, that $260 for the same miles driven. If I drive 500 miles per year, I pay the same as if I drive 50k miles per year. Being taxed on what you own is rarely fair.

Haven't watched golf in a while but turned on the @PGAChampionship today. Had to turn it off - the guys yelling every time someone hits the ball is intolerable.
Do people like this?

Still processing THIS from the FT line!

I shot 96%. Yep

I made 2400 free throws. Missed 103

I train/prepare really hard for months to make 100 FTs every hour for 24 hours

@MetamateDaz That’s not how it works. But then how would you know?

[EJones @TDC_ERock]

@ESPNLunardi Nobody wants this. But maybe this will be the thing that unites the country like we haven’t seen for 25 years.

[EJones @TDC_ERock]

@MarchMadnessMBB Nobody wants this

@Kalshi Before social media replies existed I didn’t realize how many idiots are out there

@SawyerMerritt Wonder how a Tesla compact hatchback would do in Europe. Smaller cars are such a big percentage of cars on the road over there.

[EJones @TDC_ERock]

@BTRowland If the others would start playing like they were in a game 5 they might be in

[Tired of Quin Snyder @TheBravesDavid]

Great for the NBA product that the commentators on a playoff game just outright said “if you’re the hawks you’re not gonna get those calls like the Knicks”. Really sells the integrity

[EJones @TDC_ERock]

@LasVegasLocally Nice engagement farming. You win.

Asking me to donate to the national debt after taxing my income AND my purchases is crazy work
