Golf and Age Discrimination

The Sheehan Golf Classic went well yesterday, with Team Cancer (my dad and I) against Team Lack of Compassion (my brothers, who didn't give us any strokes). In the team event, my dad and I put up a valiant fight, but were foiled and lost 10-8...it was over early, but we rallied at the end to close the gap.

In the individual event, it came down to the 18th putting green, it's always a close match with Kevin and I. I putted for par, Kevin bogeyed...I totalled in at 85 and Kevin 86 - a narrow victory, but a victory nonetheless. We had a great time, it's always nice to get out with my Dad and brothers, and since everything has happened it's particularly special when we all get to play together.

On another note; it appears I have already offended people (C.A.) with my comments on Roger Clemens age, and the fact that he may well remember Woodstock. To clarify; I don't think 45 is old, as a general rule...but for a starting pitcher in the AL East, making $4.5 Mill a month? Well in that case 45 is ancient. I know my friend was throwing me a simple jibe, he's a quick witted professional, but I figured since I'm at the tender age of 28 I might have raised some eyebrows elsewhere too...thus I will take the following pledge on my analysis of future Yankee signings;

A New Challenge is an equal opportunity Blog. A New Challenge will not discriminate against any future Yankee players, signings, or trades because of race, color, religion, creed, age, sex, national origin (including, without limitation, those for whom English is a second language or those who are immigrants), ancestry, physical or mental disability (including learning disabilities), past history of mental disorder, medical condition including pregnancy, family care leave, cancer and AIDS, status as a disabled veteran or veteran of the wars including Vietnam, marital status, sexual orientation, or any other non-playing related factor.

I did also discover an additional factor in his signing that may well have tipped the scales in his favor.

All else is well...nothing to report about me, I feel good, have all my hair and remain positive and in good spirits.

Good Day!
