My favorite band and I are the same age.  They are going on their 50th anniversary tour next year.  They play in Charlotte tomorrow, coincidentally (I'll be there).

Yes, many of us on here are getting old.

Was at a local late model race a few years back and saw the last name of a driver whom I remembered a driver with the same last name from back when I was growing up watching race who ran Indy cars and Nascar Cup events.

So before the event, I was in the infield pit area and stopped by to see the driver (Eric Darnell) and introduced myself explaining a background I had in motorsports and then asked him if he was from Chicago and when he said he grew up there .........I responded, " You know, I used to watch a Bay Darnell out of Chicago when I was growing up was that your dad by chance?"

He paused a bit and put his head down.......and hesitated to which I thought well maybe they aren't related after all. 

Then he looked up and smiled back at me and with a laugh replied, "Yup, we are related but he's not my dad........that was my grandfather."

Man did I feel old..............

    • I will admit this- Kon doesn't look or play like a 19 year. Much bigger and filled out than I thought he was. Plus initiate the offense during his best quarter and he did make some good passes for FG attempts.   I watch NBA years ago and was a top 3 fantasy yahoo managers for years. Many times a player had like 30 points, it mostly came from one or 2 hot quarters. The others were 5 and 0, so his 16 point game is normal in that regard.    If Ball, bridges, and Miller allow Kon to be apart of the team, just depends on if he clicks of not. Another generic white guy comp popped in my head........he of hornet lore-Gordon Hayward 15 points 5 rebs 3.5 asst Maybe??
    • Here are a couple of links.   Wish I had seen this before this past weekend as appears they had a big fundraiser event last week. https://sites.google.com/vollminadvisory.com/thewilmingtonarenaproject/home https://www.wwaytv3.com/wilmington-native-leads-push-for-new-multi-use-venue-to-attract-professional-hockey-team/ https://portcitydaily.com/latest-news/2025/07/13/wilmington-nonprofit-fundraising-for-10k-seat-arena-to-lure-pro-ice-hockey-team/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61577145613291    
    • Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄
