Keith Mitchell: 70-70-70-70

He is the only player to shoot four rounds of even par in U.S. Open history.

On the same week he became the only player to have a U.S. Open round with a sub-30 nine (29) & nine-hole score of 40 or worse (41).

How does Shinnecock get U.S. Open ready after harsh winters?

Early mornings and hard work from the grounds crew. We got a first hand look at the process. 👀

@acaseofthegolf1 How bout Brett Quigley finishing T4 in at the Principal Charity classic yesterday in Des Moines, then getting on a midnight flight to Rockville MD's Manor CC and firing a 3-under 67 to finish first and qualify for the U.S. Senior Open. Oh did I mention his clubs never made it? He had to use the head pro's sticks!

There’s nothing worse than a convenience store line being held up by someone buying lottery tickets. Go home, put your paycheck in a barrel, and start a fire. I’m trying to buy a Slim Jim and a Mountain Dew like a responsible adult.

En los años 70, Robert Redford necesitaba un apartamento en Manhattan. La junta de propietarios era de las más exigentes de la ciudad. Pidió cartas de recomendación a varios amigos.

Paul Newman escribió la suya.

La carta decía, aproximadamente: "El señor Redford me debe 120 dólares desde hace más de tres años. Se niega a saldar la deuda incluso a costa de nuestra amistad, su honor y su lealtad. No puedo, en conciencia, recomendarlo para absolutamente nada."
Redford la leyó y se partió de risa. La junta, al parecer, también.

Consiguió el apartamento.

Lo que hace grande esa anécdota no es el humor. Es lo que dice sobre cuarenta años de amistad entre dos hombres que empezaron juntos en Dos hombres y un destino en 1969 y no se separaron hasta la muerte de Newman en 2008. Compartieron pantalla, competieron por los mismos papeles, se hicieron ricos juntos con Newman's Own, la empresa de salsas y alimentos que Newman fundó y cuyas ganancias donó íntegramente a causas benéficas, más de 500 millones de dólares hasta hoy.

Cuando Newman murió, Redford no dio un discurso largo. Dijo una sola frase a los medios: "El mundo ha perdido a uno de sus mejores ciudadanos y yo a uno de mis amigos más queridos y más respetados."

No era un hombre de palabras innecesarias.

La carta de recomendación decía exactamente lo mismo que ese comunicado, solo que al revés y con más elegancia.

Cedric Maxwell on Pistol Pete Maravich and a rookie named Larry Bird:

“We come to a timeout and Pete says ‘Larry, they’re double-teaming you. You can’t force up those kind of shots.’

Larry looks up and goes ‘If you were any damn good, they wouldn’t be double-teaming me.'”

Robert Duvall had less than 20 minutes in Apocalypse Now and still gave us an Oscar nod, an all-timer quote, and total dominance of the ‘Ride of the Valkyries’ scene.

Remember Tarleton’s Quarter, today in 1780 the action that caused the Carolina Backcountry to explode in violence happened in The Waxhaws near modern day Lancaster South Carolina.

That time Rafael Furcal turned an unassisted triple play. One of the rarest plays in all of sports

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.

The forerunner of all Studio Hosts and also versatile enough to be a ⭐️ in the booth as well. Historically, no sportscaster had more power & control of a Network than Brent from 1975 to 1990. You don’t get there without making some enemies & critics and he did. However, he gave my generation that did Studio work, and PXP the blueprint for success at both, and better opportunities. I’m exhibit A of that as upon my full time hiring in 86’ @espn I was the first to have studio & remote obligations written into my contract. Cake 🎂 for Brent! A true Broadcasting icon! 🥂🍻to Sports Televisions “Big Dog”🎧🎙️🏈🏀⚾️
