Just got back last night....long, long week. Way too long to be in Vegas. Spent most of my day time at the Encore pool. Only gambled 4 times, ended up down about $300 - most of which was the last night, which sucks. Still a lot of fun.
I haven't been to Vegas in 6 years. The place is still the same, except I noticed they do all they can to drain every penny out of you. It's amazing how they find ways to nickel and dime you.
The NBA summer league is going on out there. Lots of players walking around. I met a guy named Willie Reed who plays for Utah. I looked him up after he left and it appears he's an NBA journeyman/fringe player - 5 seasons, 12 career starts. 6'11 out of St. Louis University. He had his pregnant wife and two other kids with him, very nice and polite. Also met Jane Enos (Dan Enos' wife - google "Dan Enos wife"), very nice and classy...and pretty hot too! Dan did well. She was a golfer at Southern Illinois University and Dan was an assistant coach for the football team. They've been married 20 years. She was fun to talk to, told a couple of good stories. Said she was amazed at the number of staffers at Alabama. Said she did not like being a "head coaches wife" but enjoys being an assistant coaches wife. Said she enjoyed living in Arkansas and is still adjusting to Miami. I bet she enjoys that fat salary he's making!
