    Merry Christmas to those that do and don't celebrate. Cherish this time with family and friends even though they may annoy you so much.

    i've been thinking about regripping one of my Newport2's and letting it roll

    I have Winn oversized on both of mine, Ping grip was hard, brittle and crumbling so it was upgraded to a superstroker piston

    If I seem the putter, I have to include the wife. As I couldn't stand the years of "I bought that for you"

    50 putters or so, not sure what i'd let go

    Tell me a you are a shitty putter, without saying you are a shitty putter.

    Spoiler

    I used to have 3 - Ping Anser 2 I picked up about 1978 (my daughter in law lost it on a course 2 years ago...oh well it was my gamer); now I have 2, Scotty Newport 2 it's my gamer, Taylormade Spider Tour Diamond Putter that my wife gave me for Fathers Day because my best friend told her I liked it (it was a joke, that he missed 1000%) - but I can't not carry it because...

    95% of rounds I play my Scotty, if I am struggling with the bead the I'll play the Spider and put in more practice, the return to my true north.

    I am convinced that they are at a major major plateau and that its not fixable with more data at this point. They simulate 100x the actual miles driven or something pretty high of a multiple. It's just not improving anymore and I've even experienced some regression in my recent rides. 

    Its also a wonderful example of how bad of how ineffective it is to dump all this money into AI. Could you imagine how many people you could teach to drive on that many million miles in both a simulator and in real cars with all expenses paid and all they had to do was drive? If would be significantly less than the fleet cost and the training cost. There's a fallacy that once they actually get the solve it'll be worth the money, but I don't see it happening in reality. 

    People aren't going to driving better with simulator hours/miles - bad drivers already think it is everyone else that is the problem, no simulator can make them changer their belief. The ultimate issue to solve is that people make irrational driving/walking/biking decisions and automated vehicles will only get better if there are more of them. But the transition will be a hurdle that is hard to overcome....just one old mans opinion.

    This war mongering is not worthy of the inaugural award winner of the FIFA Peace Prize.

    When TACO Trump (aka President Huff & Puff) doesn't actually start this war, then he will call out his warranting a Nobel Peace Prize. For not starting a war,  thus showing his mental brilliant.

  7. It is mid-December, time to think about Santa, mistletoe, bowl games and the 2026 Celebrity Death Watch Pool. 

    Start paying attention to who is still around, and is a celebrity (someone with a wiki page is a good indicator, but there are other indicators) 
    1) Points are awarded based 100 points minus the celebrity age at death (aka there is no point in picking Dick Van Dyke because at age 100 he is worth 0 points) AND please note that points are rarely, if ever, tallied. 
    2) You must have at least 1 person under 40 on your list to qualify for the grand prize (though never previously awarded - if you win there are a host of prizes, including 2 Best Buy coupons, 100,000 internet points, and official recognition at one of the Surly tailgates in a future year.

    Contest entries must be posted before midnight 12/31/2025; if you pick early, and someone dies before that date, then you get to make a replacement pick (no later that 1/6/2026)

    here are my picks from a couple of years ago - just as an example (note these are not my picks for 2026 as at least 1 of them is already dead

    1. OJ Simpson - 76
    2. Larry Nassar - 60
    3. Rudy Guiliani - 79
    4. Vlad Putin - 71
    5. Hillary Clinton - 76
    6. Matt Gaetz - 41
    7. George Santos - 35
    8. Bruce Willis - 68
    9. Dennis Rodman - 62
    10. Clint Eastwood - 93

    Good luck (or bad luck, depending on how you look at it) - I rarely get any right, but you never know. 
    One final suggestion don't put your wife or mother-in law on the list because a) they aren't really a celebrity and b) the owners of this site do not want to have to testify in court at your trial.

    I have actual family members who viscerally hate Obama, and love Trump. Like if you ask them, they will tell you that Obama is Satan and that Trump is a good man. It completely blows my fucking mind.

    I am pretty sure we all have that, unless you are in a family that only things Prez Huff & Puff is a great leader, a christian, good man, and out to help the common man.

    That goes to show how important it is for QBs to be in the right situation, even great QBs.  Mahomes landed in an ideal place in the NFL.  His head coach is an offensive genius plus Reid is the only head coach he has had in the NFL, he has always had elite playmakers catching his passes, he doesn't have to constantly run for his life behind a patchwork OL, Kansas City's owners aren't cheapskates or attention whores or greaseballs, he was allowed to ease into the starting job because he wasn't expected to bail out a franchise that had been poorly run since he was in elementary school on day 1 of his rookie year.  If some dumpster team like the Jets or the Browns, who both passed on him, drafted Mahomes they might have permanently fucked him up.  I can envision some dinosaur coach who gets hard watching highlight reels from the 80s trying to coach the creativity and unconventional passes out of Mahomes if he ended up on a bad team.  I really hope a franchise that isn't a fucking joke ends up with the #1 pick in 2024 so Caleb Williams is put in a good position to succeed.

    Case & point - Matt Stafford didn't win shit in Detroit; now he is the leading MVP candidate and with a prime spot to get to his 2nd SuperBowl (no jinxing)

  10. Does start until Jan 15-18 for the Sony Open (no Sentry this year due to Kapalua being in shitty condition)

    8 Signature events - AT&T Pebble, Genesis (Riviera), Mr Palmers event, RBC, Miami (Trump Doral), Truist (Quail Hollow), Jacks Event, Travelers

    Majors - Masters 4/9-12, PGA 5/14-17 (Aronimink), US Open 6/18-21 (Shinnecock Hills), The (British) Open 7/16-19 (Royal Birkdale)

    2 active players need 1 event to get a Grand Slam - Jordan needs the PGA, Scottie needs the US Open. Those with wins in 2 different majors include Xander, Morikawa, Brooks, Rahm, DJ (ish he is done, IMO) 

    PGA TOUR - Tournament Schedule
