Relief in the Midst of Tragedy


Shortly after arriving home this evening I learned of the explosion in the small town of West, which is about 15 minutes north of Waco on interstate 35.

As the news reports came in, it quickly became clear that it was a very serious situation. As I write this well past midnight, there are over a hundred hurting and at least three dead.

I have many friends in this community, and although I don't know how they have been affected, I'm sure that some of them have been injured or worse.

One of my closest friends also happens to be the mayor there. He is also a volunteer fireman, so when I learned that there were firefighters on ther scene when the explosion occured, I was scared that he might be one of the casualties. All I could think about was his wife Lisa. She and Tommy lost their son in a car accident 9 years ago, and now it looked like she may have lost her husband also.

You can imagine how relieved I was to see Tommy holding a press conference that was televised on CNN.

Surreal.

As it turned out, he was on his way to the fire, about two blocks away when the explosion occured... two blocks away from almost certain death.

If you can picture Andy Griffith's Mayberry, you have a good idea of what West is like. It's a very tight knit Czech community that has been knocked to its knees. They are a hardy people, and I know they will recover from this tragedy, but it will take a long time.

I'm grateful Tommy is there to lead them through what will be a very difficult time.

Please take a moment to say a prayer for this community.

Poker League Ends- Lucki Heading for Vegas!

We finished our Vegas or Bust Poker League last Friday, then had a cook out at the Duck Blind Saturday to present the prizes to our winners.

I was able to take first place and Stamps held on to his slim lead to win the second WSOP seat.

Entering the final tournament, Stamps was in second, but Ollie the Accountant, and Lil' Annie Okie both were within reach. Annie fell on her sword early, coming in ninth, then Ollie dropped out in fifth, giving Stamps the prize. He played well the entire season, seldom finishing in the lower half and deserves to go to Vegas.

The way our league is set up, if either Stamps or I cash in the WSOP, we keep half of the prize money and the other half (after taxes) is divided among the other nine members.

I haven't decided when I'm heading to Sin City, but it will either be the last week of May or the first week of June. I'll let you know when everything is set. Hopefully, I'll get to see some of my fellow bloggers while visiting.

Till next time, win the flips.

MLB Picks, April 9th

A couple of games, one AL and one NL, look like possibilities today.

$10 @ +105 on Cincinnati (Arroyo) over St. Louis (Lynn
Lance Lynn takes the ball for the Redbirds. He has struggled in his last 3 starts, posting a 0-1 record and a hefty 9.53 ERA.

Maurer surrendered 6 runs in 6 innings versus Oakland in his major league debut, but the Astros have only scored 8 runs in their last 6 games, which were all losses. Bedard toes the rubber for Houston. In his last 3 outings he has posted a 1-2 record with a 10.05 ERA.

Basketball and Hockey Picks, April 8th

The picks have been few the last several days in both the hoops world and on the rink. It doesn't look like that will change today, especially with the only game on the court being the NCAA title game.

If I was forced to pick a winner in this one, I would lean towards Louisville (-4), but I lived in Louisville for almost 5 years, so this pick might be with my heart and not my head.



The Boston/Carolina NHL match up looks interesting for a puck line wager on the Bruins. But at only +130, I don't think that's enough of a payoff to give 1 1/2 goals.

Hopefully, tomorrow will bring better opportunities.

MLB Picks, April 8th

Two games on the MLB docket look interesting.

$10 @ +115 on NYY (Kuroda) over Cleveland (Jimenez)

$10 on Seattle (Saunders) over Houston (Humber) -1 1/2 @ +130
The first of what will probably be many bets against mt favorite team. Saunders is 2-2 with a 3.32 ERA in his last 6 starts. Humber is 1-2 with a 6.20 ERA in his last 4 outings.

Starting Bankroll                                       $1,500.00
