Great piece by Amick

Not bad for a Sac. State grad. No surprise that he hangs around the airport - probably looking for the first flight out of this dead end town. :)

Slight difference between Theus and Adelman

I took my son to get an autograph from Adelman back in the day at the Granite Bay Raleys. I didn't see him talk to a single fan during the whole time I was waiting for him to sign unless he absolutely had to. Looked like he was sitting on a bad case of hemorrhoids.

Not that I held it against him. I think some people are just not very comfortable around strangers. But it looks like the Maloofs definitely got the PR man they wanted.

Now I live in Spanish Fork

Utah, which is just like Granite Bay . . . only in that it is a two word city.

Provo is going to town

In Spanish Fork you can tell if a guy has a girlfriend, because there will be tobacco stains on both sides of the truck.

Adelman and Petrie

Geoff Petrie has actually been quoted as saying that he's known Adelman for 20-odd years and has never been to the guy's house for dinner. Adelman isn't what you'd call a socialite. I imagine that Theus is the exact opposite, and much more what the Maloofs wanted.
