  1. I don't think that's it. We spent $13.5B on repos to give banks more cash (presumably for lending, which in theory can be a good thing, like it was during COVID but is generally a "oh fuck bad shit is coming, we need to put up our shields" kind of action). We're also now about to spend $12B on this "bailout". That's $25B that just went poof from the feds, assuming we actually pay the farmers. The $13.5B liquidity injection is quite the tell... Not in a good way. It might also be an indication that bond rates are about to go down so they wanted to buy back bonds now before their price jumps. That seems unlikely...
  2. So basically, this could have been an email.
  3. Who knew strokes were contagious.
  4. I have a SkyTrak from ~5+ years ago so I can opine on it. In general, it's pretty accurate and fun to use. The pairing with your device requirement is a bit annoying - sometimes it struggles to connect and in general, I'd much prefer the unit to come with it's own display like the new Garmin does. But otherwise, for $2k and the ability to plot ball flight (big selling point), calc RPMs, launch angle, swing speed, ball speed, face angle at impact, etc... I've been pretty happy with it. However... If you're even remotely OCD, it 100% triggers that and you start to fuss over 0.5 degrees open and 2 yards offline and 500 rpms too high and.... You get the idea. Which then requires you get a good hitting mat to avoid injury because you will certainly end up swinging a ton. I use RealFeelGolfMats.com and have been happy with them, no elbow injuries and it's been in use since 2021.
  5. If they were in the ACC, they would have lost more games, they wouldn't have qualified for the CCG and wouldn't be pitching a hissy fit now b/c it would have been more apparent how undeserving they are.
  6. It's not often you see a player come back from a knee ligament injury and operate at 100% pre-injury speed immediately. I'm hoping one more offseason gets Baxter back to near 100% and he can improve his draft stock, even if that means it happens in a jersey color other than burnt orange.
  7. Did Crockett get gerrymandered or why make the jump? I personally would rather see her in a safe House seat where she's a consistent voice for the left rather than fighting for her life every 6 years in the Senate. And that's assuming she actually wins this time around and doesn't set her political career back 10+ years (which is a MASSIVE assumption/risk).
  8. Curious.... Give a reasonable example within the confines of a Cinnabon where THAT reaction is justified? Being a shitty, demanding customer isn't grounds for that response.
  9. Nothing gets panties in an irrational wad like Lewis underperforming.
  10. Did they rehearse this? Like ever? Low point of Kevin Hart's career, right here.
  11. Better him than the Pig AD.
  12. Madi, Rori, and Jordan need a vacation.
  13. ND making it is the biggest travesty of them all but I think them slotting ND at 10 and Miami at 12 sets the CFP up to right that wrong - BYU loses, that puts Miami and ND next to year other which justifies a flip due to the head to head. Doesn't really do us any favors but at least ND gets fucked. If they want to quiet the Texas hype train down, they just need to come out and say it - losses are more important than wins. That is the ONLY justification for ND and Miami being ranked ahead of Texas. If flies in the face of what they've said previously but if that's their stance now, so be it, but fucking own it so we can adjust accordingly. Stop persecuting Christians.
  14. I volunteer to lead the investigation.
  15. Champions league style qualification (kind of). The strength of your conference from the previous year determines how many bids you get for the following year. The smaller conferences are fighting for 1 bid. All other small conferences that didn't win the 1 bid? Win more this year, try again next year. Conference tie breaker rules determine the top teams that win the bids. No CCG. Fuck ND. Join someone.
  16. I think "giving a lesson" isn't what was really happening. I bet someone said "you look like you have a pop stroke" and he was just defending himself that he essentially dead hands it at impact with a super light putter.
  17. Just the away games that Fox covers (so this year and last).
  18. One of those is a legit reason to be left out while the other is a completely egregious and incredibly shitty for the game reason.
  19. Worse than Miami at #12, I think them moving Bama up to #9 ahead of ND is going to fuck us in the end. It's them sending a message that Bama won't drop out if they lose UGa - worst case, they'll swap with ND. I don't think there is anyway they drop ND out. So much love for that garbage resume. I don't get it.
  20. Are you in Austin? If so, I have a set of irons, 3W, and driver (head only for driver) I no longer need that I'll just give away. Cobra forged tec GW - 4i, Taylor Made M2 driver and 3W. Also, don't cheap on lessons. Cheap on clubs.
  21. That's not how odds in Vegas work.
  22. Drop someone for losing half their coaching staff then. Fuck them kids. /MJ
