  1. Looks fantastic
  2. This view from the back of a boat is always cool
  3. Watched him play in high school. Friendly with his family. His success surprises me not one bit. The kid has been a basketball junkie his entire life. &nbsp We raised a glass, prior to one of our Pitt football games last season, to his new contract.
  4. I have not watched any of the series as I am on vacation but, have the announcers talked about a record for 4th quarter comeback victories in a playoffs?
  5. The guys/gals working the boats that I’ve encountered here in St Tropez have always been really nice and open to talking about the boats. It’s pretty cool because I know next to nothing about them
  6. 1. St Tropez last night 2. I always enjoy when you can’t tell where the water ends and the sky begins 3. A pretty neat sailboat in town for the regatta. No yachts in town, just sailboats
  7. So they can crush another #2. ugh
  8. this is pretty funny
  9. My buddy who works there said the rough is nearly impossible to get out of. The rain has been something else. Been a very wet winter/spring/start to summer
  10. On the drive to St Tropez Friday. Just fucking gorgeous
  11. That second half was amazing
  12. I’m in Germany and watched with friends, all Germans, and we all said the same things which were similar to what you said. Germany has no offense, none. Not since the Federation Cup in 2017. Terrible game tonight. Better team won for sure. At least my Bier was great.
  13. Her dad has a beautiful 850 and an M6. Fantastic cars
  14. I’ve never been a huge BMW guy. Our family has always thought the Bavarians were too whimsical but, some of their cars are awesome. I love the old 635 and 2002. Just beautiful
  15. I arrived at my cousin’s house in Germany and this was in the garage. A friend of her husband’s was out driving in his 1960 190SL and had some brake issues so he asked if he could park the car until he could get it sorted.
  16. A buddy of mine works there. He said a ton of players are going to be at Oakmont tomorrow. He also said one of the foursomes playing in the event tomorrow is worth a combined $1,500,000,000. We used to swim against Oakmont in the country club swimming association. We used to clobber them. Of course their youth golf team was very good. I worked three of the Opens and they were a lot of fun. One of our family friends was the club President when they cut down all the trees to take it back to its original form. Said it was nuts the calls they’d get at night from people complaining. My buddy J.R. Is in charge of the little kids who walk the course with the scoring placards. It will be his boy’s first Open. Me, I’m getting out of town today. I don’t want to go anywhere near Oakmont the next three weeks. Sitting at Dulles waiting to fly to Germany. I know folks who rent out their homes for serious money when the Open comes. It is a great course and a wonderful club.
  17. Towards the end I was confused as to why Redbull was telling Max to give the position back to George. I thought that when he and LeClerc made contact that it was on both of them but, then it was on George for that first hit. Seems to me there needs to be much better communication from Race Control. The contact between Max and George after the confusion on the radio was not a good look, not at all. Max should be beyond that. Although his radio communication from his pit were quite confusing. It's really odd seeing the Mercedes have reliability issues. Very good day for LeClerc. The McLaren are just such good cars right now and both drivers, Piastri more than Lando, are on top of it. You have to go all the way back to Alan Jones in 1980 for the last time an Australian won the title. I did not really hear anything as to why Yuki sucked so badly this weekend. That was bad. Hulkenberg getting by Hamilton at the end was certainly interesting. Nico was certainly surprised. Hadjar with yet another fantastic showing. Lawson two spots in front of Yuki. Nice to see Alonso finally get that monkey off his back. I didn't hear them say why the second Aston was not out there. Do they not bring a substitute driver? Although, if this is the beginning of the end for Lance I'm all for it.
  18. I’m not a huge fan of PSG but, I think they have been the club I have most enjoyed watching for the better part of a decade. Just a lot of fun and I really like the uniforms they are wearing today.
  19. Watched two of the three practice sessions from Spain and a lot of guys had trouble with the back end of their cars jumping loose, especially, it seemed, in Turn 10. Hamilton is just doomed to misery this season. At the end of P3 he was on the radio basically saying the car wouldn’t shift.
  20. Not a chance would I take Gobert if I was another GM.
  21. Pacers just don’t let them get close enough
  22. WNBA has concluded it's investigation into the racism charge towards the Indiana fans and found that nothing could be corroborated or substantiated.
  23. A bit along the lines of what I suggested. I’d add a different compound on each of the five qualifying runs. Everyone has to run the five but, they can be in any order depending on temperature and time of day so the teams have some experimental latitude. Like others have said the cars are just too damned big and the course is too tight/confined. Two years ago when we were walking to the train station after the race we happened upon a storefront that had one of Clay Regazzoni’s cars and it looked like a go-kart compared to today’s cars.
  24. I don’t know what I was expecting from Holmgren when he came into the league but, he has the chance to be something special for a long time.
