A tradition unlike any other…The Masters. This time of year is one of my favorites. The weather starts to turn warmer. The trees and flowers start to bloom. People start coming outside of their homes. And the NCAA tournament concludes right into my favorite sporting event of the year, the Masters. With this in mind, I thought I would prepare a Weinke inspired by the tournament. I borrowed some of this from Warning Track and others via reviewing their backblasts.
Weather – chilly 39 degrees at launch
