Photo: COURTNEY HERGESHEIMER DISPATCH.COMYesterday coach Jim Tressell rode an indy car down Kenny Rd. to the OSU golf course. Under police escort of course. A perk of being the coach at Ohio St. Courtesy of the Rahal family.
This prompted a discussion on local sports radio: "What cool sports related things (attainable sports dreams) would an average person do?" (if given the resources). Chris Spielman said he would caddie for Tiger. I would also like to caddie for Tiger! I thought about what my wish list would be:
- Take batting practice at Dodger Stadium
- Play HORSE with Shaq. No dunking allowed, duh
- Drive a NASCAR at Talledega
- Sing "Take me out to the Ball Game" at Wrigley
- Skydive onto the field with the game ball for a BYU Football game
- Ironman Hawaii
- Ring the starting bell at the NYSE (not sports related, but still would be really cool)
- Swim Laps with Michael Phelps
- Go on a ride with Lance Armstrong
Feel free to leave your comments on what you would like to do.
The last on my list will come to pass this August, I will get to ride with Lance! I will be riding in Pelotonia, a grass roots bike tour with one goal: to end cancer. Pelotonia raises money for innovative and life saving cancer research at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center- James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute. Driven by the passion of its cyclists and volunteers, and their family and friends, Pelotonia's annual cycling experience will be a place of hope, energy and determination. Leveraging Netjets' transformational gift, Pelotonia directs 100% of every dollar raised to research.

I like this post, especially since now the first thing on your blog isn't that ugly picture from the last post. But, on my list would be:
1. season tickets to the yankees
2. next year season tickets to the mariners for K fed
3. rush a BYU football field against the U
There's probably more but that will do for right now!
Kevin's wish is to go to the Okalhoma-BYU game in Dallas this year. And mine is to have Ohio State season tickets right in front and with all the free food I can eat.
