Opening day and Huskers still playing basketball. What a day.

During one of the worst losing streaks of my career, our team president walked into my office.

Keli McGregor. One of the best men I've ever known.

He could have come to vent. To question my decisions. To ask hard questions.

Instead, he said: "Cut to the chase, Clint. What's next?"

I looked him in the eye and gave him two words: "Shower well."

The Colorado Rockies were struggling badly that year.

Pregame preparation was solid. Scout meetings, early work, attention to detail. All of it was there.

But at game time, the tires were flat.

I told Keli: the game did everything it could to us today. We just couldn't meet its demands.

Now it was time to reset.

"Shower well" means exactly this:
• Watch the frustration circle down the drain
• Shampoo, rinse, repeat and get the grime of today completely off your mind
• Walk out clean, go home, and actually rest

Leave it at the ballpark. The game is over. There's nothing left to solve tonight.

Keli nodded. Asked if he could share it with the whole organization.

I said sure. And then it hit me. This isn't just for baseball.

Bad day at the office. Grumpy boss. Missed deadline. Traffic on the way home.

You can carry all of that through your front door.

Or you can shower well.

I've never seen a single problem get better because someone dragged it home with them.

The reset is a discipline. Same as preparation. Same as showing up.

Either we win. Or we learn.

The only real loss? When you don't take a single thing out of a hard day.

So tonight, whatever kind of day it was, shower well.

Tomorrow is a new at-bat.

What does your reset look like? I'd love to hear it.

You’re not truly ready for battle until you’ve pulled an ungrateful alcoholic in a sleigh across the Russian countryside like a goddamn Italian reindeer.

I ain't raised a decent corn or bean crop for 5 year's. Now this year it looks decent and the rest of the nation has a record. FFS.

Seeing a push from people, especially with beef, that it’s too expensive and we need to actively import or find other solutions….a much greater push than against healthcare, vehicles, insurance, etc….basically anything that can be financialized is safe from scrutiny…why is that?

Super Sky Point to Hulk Hogan, a man who revolutionized the pro wrestling industry twice. If you don’t remember Wrestlemania III, I can’t adequately explain what a cultural touchstone moment it was when he did the seemingly impossible by slamming Andre the Giant. He was the brightest light in a sky full of larger-than-life WWE stars. Years later, we saw that same childhood hero morph into the conniving “Hollywood” Hogan in WCW and his on-air villainy damn near put Vince McMahon and the WWE out of business. Monday nights became must-see television and it ushered in the attitude era. Wrestling’s popularity and mainstream acceptance ascended to new levels.

Love him or hate him, or maybe he made you feel both emotions, Hulk Hogan was always relevant. He knew how to make you care. He put asses in seats and in front of tv screens. That was his job. And he was damn good at it. Whatcha gonna do, St. Peter, when the 24-inch pythons run wild on you? #RIP

Only received .40" last night but upstream had to be irresponsible and get too much too quick.

[Mark DeBoer @farmermop]

@JeffDenson3 That's a tremendous looking field.

Mean Joe Greene kicks a guy in the nuts and the entire goddamn Cleveland Browns roster comes after him. This is the NFL of my childhood and it was awesome.
