It's a Wednesday edition of BFT PM.

Back from the league meetings in Arizona.

I love Arizona.

I don't know how anyone can live there.

Open air convection oven, especially in March,

when it really shouldn't be 90, 95 degrees.

It was warm.

It was toasty.

Thank God for air conditioning.

And man, you want a good business?

Air conditioning repair in Arizona.

Somebody's probably making a ton of money.

I say this from time to time after i come home from a

trip especially one of these short trips with a long flight both ways only there for three days

left saturday got back very late last night i say i'm never traveling again and i've been saying

that for several years now one of these times i'm going to mean it because I can do everything I do from here in the

great state of West Virginia.

I'll no longer have to say country roads take me home.

I'll be home and I won't leave.

One of these times I'm going to mean it.

And last night, look, I got over my whole flying thing in 2014. I was on a flight sitting next to Paul Hicks, who was the former head of PR for the NFL. And we were having a conversation after the week one game, Packers, Seahawks, after the Seahawks had won their first Super Bowl. And we're talking. And as we're talking, I noticed the plane was in the air and just at at that point something in my brain said, why do you worry about this? Now, I also had this weird belief that I had to at least stay alive until I turned 18 or until my son turned 18, excuse me. And then he doesn't need me anymore. So that was one of the reasons why I was like, hey, I can't fly. I'm trying to stay alive here.

And I know it was stupid in hindsight, but that's how I was wired.
