Please don’t play dumb.
You NEVER exude this energy towards the Johnny Sacks of this site when they post their right wing garbage and the fact that the president of the United States has publicly called for the murder of protesters blows any bullshittery about removing politics from this discussion out of the water.
Everything is political in 2020 because our president makes it so and you know it - you just don’t want to be bothered .
Anyway, enjoy this new hot single from Taylor Swift.I've found you to be a reasonable poster, BamaChick. Please know that this post, pointed at this particular person, is way off. I say that respectfully, and this doesn't need to turn into an "is not! is to!" conversation, but it's just way, way off.

Pitchers are some of the best athletes around. Generally former skill position players in football (Kershaw excepted) or basketball, and generally great golfers. Absolutely I’m taking 1976 Nolan Ryan over Jenner.
This might be the funniest fucking thing I've ever read. Not just on Surly ... anywhere.

I definitely agree with you. But most say even today Jordan would be GOAT, and he may even be better with the advantages given at the offensive end of the court - no Jordan rules today, would never fly. Many say Gretzky wouldn't be the same in today's game - I'm not sure, but to me Gretzky is the greatest...
This is even more fun of a chart if you put up what the second-place record holder has as a stat. He's ~900 points ahead of second place in all-time points, for example (Jagr).

I was referring to the grunting after not getting the call on the cutter from. I get it’s gamesmanship, but it’s also gamesmanship for Butler to call out the fact that he just got the borderline inside corner. That type of shit is exactly why we need to have robots calling balls and strikes.
But Jimenez overreacted from that point, IMO. Butler just kinda made a subtle comment, and Jimenez wouldn’t let it go. And to top it off, that was a fucking bomb. It rarely goes that many rows up at progressive field.
With that being said, I agree. Butler is a bitch.
It was indeed a HUGE bomb. Butler won the overall engagement, for sure :).

I always hated Billy Butler when he was on the A’s but this was a pretty boss move, because he’s right IMO.
Butler isn't right, Butler's a bitch for saying anything. Jimenez is supposed to just lay down and not try and help his pitcher? Fuck that.
I'm not sure why Jimenez was so amped up about it, though. Both of them said their piece, Butler handled it better by far (not the homerun, just the 'step out and shut up.') -

I've had the best luck at independent liquor stores in small towns. Stop by often, buy a bottle of something every now and then and ask the person behind the counter (its usually the same person every time) if they have any specific bottles you are looking for or any other special bottles. Some of them will take your name and number and/or put you on a list. I've gotten 2 bottles of Blanton's 6-8 months apart keeping my name on a list at one store.
completely agree with this. There's a hole in the wall place near my inlaws (directionally towards kerrville) that I stop in every time. I don't know the folks by name, but I always buy something, and I always ask about Blantons, Weller 12/BP, and Eagle Rare. Last time I was in there, there was a bottle of Antique just sitting on the shelf - fucker had DUST on it. I bought that with the quickness. I've found Eagle Rare and EHTSiB the same way. Crazieness.

you're sort of an asshole. Oh, I just forgot these three ungettable bottles, and three super-rare bottles in the garage. Sheesh. Might as well just give them to me, to make yourself feel better.

I somehow finagled my way onto the Blanton's list at my nearby Spec's. They call once a year or so, and I get a bottle. I don't even remember how it happened - I think it was because I was asking about bottles in a knowledgeable way, and I made it clear I was buying to drink, not to resell. But when I was there, my goal wasn't to get on a list, it was just to find some bourbon. Also, this particular specs seems to be "nicer" than most .. usually when I go into a Specs and ask about "have anything fun in the back?" I get an incredibly snarky brush off. It's comical - they're just dicks.

In other news I’m finding that the flipping of nines at my home course has changed my course management. Now that first tee is wide open 10 by the time I get to 1 I am loose enough to hit driver on 1. And I don’t smother it into the hedge like [mention]longhorn10 [/mention]This is encouraging news ...

So you won’t be getting off the Regan until at least 2.Lol. I'm just not good enough to rope hook a 3w far enough ... have to try the driver otherwise I'm hitting 6i into that green and that's no recipe for success.

Anybody know how the course is at Falconhead? I understand they're open, just don't know if it's worth the drive.
quoting an older post, but played there Saturday AM. It's worth the drive. Greens might be as good as I've ever seen them - turns out, getting a 3-4 week break from a packed tee-sheet, along with a warm spring and a few heavy storms means the grass will grow. They're a little light on the social distancing stuff, but I wore a mask for all the checkin/pro shop time, and took my own hand sanitizer, and felt safe. Range is open, one-rider-to-a-cart. Beware that if they run out of carts, you have to walk ... so book an early tee time, or shoot for the 11-12 timeframe (for when the early tee times start to finish up).

Just wanted to chime in here and give thanks for being raised in a family of generally handy people. I'm no master craftsman, but I put together two shelves in the laundry room today at the request of the wife, made entire from "shit I had laying around the garage," and they look damn good. The goal is to be functional, but they're well thought out, strong AF, and cleaned up nice with a bit of caulk afterwards. As I jokingly texted my dad, they're even "about 92% level."
Love seeing everyones projects on this thread. Keep it going. I'm soon to start converting my walk-in attic to a golf sim room and theater. That's a much bigger project lol. I have what I need to get started, but i'll rapidly need to go to HD so I'm waiting until there's a BIT more clarity on CV19 before I really dig in. It should perfectly align with the weather getting balls hot again (neat).

The saddest part of this thread is realizing that there are no Brandy Perryman highlights on Youtube.

It's been a while since I've participated in this thread but all this time at home has made be quite bored. This story is wild...my new club Metacomet Golf Club (mostly because I moved right across the street and can't afford Rhode Island CC) was purchased last year by Faxon and others. Now they flipped it for profit (or so it seems). Article is a great read. From what I've heard from one of the owners and head pro it sounds like they're not convinced the new group will demolish / close the club. The course is incredible, some of the best greens I've ever seen.
Video of course is also fantastic..
Wind power turbines in the background - would not play.

One of the greatest decisions ever was to buy a complete array of DeWalt 20V tools. Easy battery swap. Tools work well. Every need covered. Really made a big difference.
This. I will say the new FlexVolt gear seems to be pretty badass. Can run 60V in things like the circsaw, but only 20v elsewhere. I found a bundle with the Circ Saw that included two 60/20v batteries and a charger, I bought another 60/20V, and already had a charger previous. Also have the impact driver, hammer drill, jigsaw and an extra drill-driver. Will soon add the dremel, work light, and sawzall (I have corded versions of all three, but I just don't see the need for my lightweight household tasks).
I'll also say that DeWalt isn't what it used to be. For general household use, I really think any of the house-brand brushless 20V+ sets will do you right. GottaB's collection looks awesome. Basically, pick one, and buy all the tools and buy good batteries.
¡Snek!
