If you're around the NY area on Sunday, we're going to have a LOT of fun with Dick Tracy in Pleasantville.

Brilliance of Augusta is its essential contradiction: it's both exceedingly difficult & utterly gettable. It is a golf course that exists on the margins. 66 is always out there. So is 82. And the back 9 (no, I'm not calling it 'the second 9') is sport's greatest stage, for my $$.

But that’s the story of the case. My middle school shut down for the verdict. I had a soccer game that night and parents were screaming at each other on the bleachers.

Hard to explain to young people just how impactful the O.J. trial was in our lives. It consumed the entire nation.

Scottie Scheffler is the deserved favorite but I'm not touching those odds. I'm taking Hideki Matsuyama to win (+1800), Shane Lowry top five (+850) and Russell Henley top ten (+400).

NO Spaces this Sat. (My conflict.)

I will join Robert Schmitz & co for their draft board show Tues eve.

Schmitz & I will do a COMPLETELY listener-driven, final draft Spaces next Saturday (4/20) at 1 PM ET.

And we’ll be LIVE on night one of draft. (First time for me!)

Tin Cup is my fave golf movie but it’s also a remarkable record of a moment in golf history. Watch the scenes at US Open & notice how white everyone is in 1996, how sloppily dressed they are, how unathletic they look. And think about who shows up in 1997.

It's been a quiet offseason from me so far, but I wrote a thing! We have 2 drafts' worth of data on Ryan Poles now, and there are some very clear patterns to pick up that can help inform us about what might be coming in 2 weeks: dabearsblog.com/2024/lessons-f…

The crowds and enthusiasm have been overwhelming for “After the Golden Age” at Burns Film Center. Two more Sundays remain!

This week, Warren Beatty’s beautifully enigmatic Dick Tracy, with a talk centered around MTV’s earth shattering impact on the musical film.

Really enjoyed the single topic Spaces with Robert Schmitz on Saturday. We’ll go again this Saturday, but earlier because I’m not missing the leaders tee off at Augusta.

So…float is your topic ideas.

Bob Fosse was the American Fellini, and “Jazz” is his cynical, tortured, brilliant “8 1/2”. Tomorrow at Burns Film Center I will discuss the evolution of Fosse’s style, his filmmaking frustrations, and why he’s a pivotal figure in the history of the movie musical.
