Three things Thursday. Breakfast is already done, I’m leaving for work in 20 minutes … I love these quick blogs. Here goes (almost) nothing …
1. Run for the wells!
A good friend of Operation Jack, Jonathan Gunderson, is putting on an affordable 6K/10K trail race in San Francisco on Saturday. It’s such a short distance that even non-runners can participate. It goes to benefit a great cause and I’m proud to be supporting him with his efforts. The site for the race is HERE <—- click that! If you’re not in the area, share it with your friends on Facebook or Twitter … PLEASE!
2. Don’t run at all!
That’s my plan this week. Haven’t run since Saturday. Life is getting in the way. I’m pretty miserable. I explained that yesterday. Oh well, maybe after work I’ll hit the treadmill at the gym. Or maybe not.
3. Can these elections be over already?
Facebook is really getting annoying. Can’t wait until November 7. I have my own opinions, primarily that no politician is ever going to do me any good. I have my ideologies, but I have two choices to make — who is the lesser of two evils, and do I go with the lesser of two evils or a third-party protest? Really, the only news coming out of Washington that I really care about is already settled — Stephen Strasburg is getting shut down after September 12. I think that’s ridiculous — you never know when you’re gonna get another crack at the postseason. Davey Johnson has to use him in October.

Have a great weekend![subscribe2]
Remember when Grant Hill & Tim Duncan both got hurt as their teams made playoff pushes? Grant Hill, total warrior, played through injury and carried his team to several wins. And ruined his career.
Duncan sat, the Spurs were quickly bounced from the playoffs and he’ll likely go down as one of the 10 greatest of all time. When in doubt in the first half of your career, shut it down!
