Watched some of the Nationwide action to see what the Ice Man would do.  He was doing OK until a little over midway in the race he was penalized with a drive through penalty for leaving the pits too fast.<\/p>\n<p>Quick digression; I also watched some Dawgs baseball.  They managed to qualify for the NCAA Tournament by virtue of a decent run with wins over the Fighting Chickens and Gators.  Too bad they could not manage a second win against the Gators in the elimination bracket.  Georgia\u2019s record may look flimsy, but when you look at their quality schedule, I hope they get consideration for the Tournament.<\/p>\n<p>In a few minutes it\u2019s onwards to Monaco, followed by some Indy 500 action and eventually some 600 miles NASCAR racing action well into the night.  It is too much to take.  I think throwing some wings on the grill and a cooler full of High Life and Miller Lite will just have to help me carry the day.<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I kicked off the weekend with a slow cooked Boston Butt Roast; I am biased, but it was fantastically delicious.
