  1. Not even close - because if he sells his core holdings it will trigger capital gains taxes on the shares he has acquired. He is sitting on a winning lottery ticket, but the tax man cometh.
  2. so you are saying we went to the moon on white Ford Bronco that was driven there slowly
  3. took me a minute, then I realized West wasn't 116 years old. and because this is Surly, I will include a photo of his daughter in law
  4. I think the more difficult bet would be where do you see the cut line; and how many over par do think the worst score is of those who make the cut. I am pretty sure there are going to be some big numbers out there, especially from some of the qualifiers, including the am's.
  5. Well maybe the solution to the problem is that they became a throuple; think about it ... I mean Rory can clearly afford to support a family like that. Next season on Full Swing is going to have an episode about the Life & Crimes of Scottie and then Rory and his sister wives.
  6. Some of the best advice I ever got was from a commercial banker who I became friends with; he shared an article with me that explained how the market/individual stock can be wrong for longer than you can be against it. That if you sell short, or are playing options both of those are expensive and time sensitive, and the cost can eat you up before there is a correction OR there can be an event that changes things and the market is no longer wrong. This banker was a guy met after seeing a bond offering evaporate a previous employer because of timing. We had the offering documents done and the road show was supposed start, as my boss was in NY to go over the presentation with the firms promoting the offering. He came back from NY 2 days later when they told him that there were no buyers for debt offerings.
  7. Highs in the 90's, early starters get moderate temps No rain, some wind but not much, humidity won't be terrible (by Houston standards) All-in-all looks like a great weekend for championship golf
  8. RIP to the logo
  9. DFV/Roaring Kitty was undercut by GME, as they sold $2+ billion in an equity offering this week of 75 million shares. That alone should tell people that Gill does not have inside information, or he certainly would have sold some of those options before they cratered (then again maybe not he is a hodl guy) https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/12/gamestop-raises-more-than-2-billion-by-selling-75-million-shares-capitalizing-on-meme-frenzy.html
  10. She should do some personal appearances during the break in the WNBA schedule, and likely make more than her salary in the league. At this point there is no way that adding her to the team would be anything but a huge distraction. Long term this plays out well for her, by her not calling out the bias and saying all the right things to the media about supporting Team USA and the Olympics, and hoping to make the team in a future year.
  11. Here is a course flyover - I've watched about the first 6 minutes and the green complex with flow that they show presents that anything within a few feet of the edge of a green track off the green. https://www.usopen.com/2024/videos/features/06/06/2024-u-s--open--pinehurst-no--2-course-flyover-6354433152112.html?__hstc=230596675.0603d442c8172cb9e426af0ed6579e08.1718118116332.1718118116332.1718135022994.2&__hssc=230596675.1.1718135022994&__hsfp=3523199817
  12. this looks like a fun course
  13. Well that settles it - I won't be voting for Hunter Biden come this November
  14. don't argue amongst ourselves about intercity petty disputes - instead focus on the bigger picture. FUCK that list and whoever put it together (and their mother)
  15. And just seeing that tee times are posted - https://www.usopen.com/2024/tee-times.html Scottie is with Rory & Xander at 1:14 on Thursday (thinking that might just be one of the featured groups) Defending champion Wyndham Clark with with Brian Harman and Nick Dunlap @ 1:25 of interest Jordan, Rahm, Hideki @ 1:36 Tiger, Zalatoris, Matty Fitz @7:29 (off #10) - finally someone gets Tigers limitations and has him going early/late JT, Brooks, Morikawa are at 7:40 (off #1) find your favorites at the link above
  16. looking at the usga site - featured group coverage is available on usopen.com and the USGA app. I am hoping they have a good site/app - thinking like the British Open, because nothing compares to what they've done with the Masters site/app
  17. I thought with the mention of $400,000,000 it was a current statement
  18. Looks li Sounds like someone has buyers/sellers remorse. Rahm might be the first to come back to the Tour full time, though I'm sure there is a clawback clause from LIV/PIF on the 9 digit investment in getting Jon on their tour.
  19. You are right - I think that is the number of players in through exemptions, so it excludes players who go through qualifiers
  20. The field is set at 84 - Adam Scott gets in (ranked 61 in OWGR, but Grayson Murray is 59 and dropped from the list), Sergio is in as 1 of 4 qualifying alternates who made it in on spots reserved for the last week and nobody else qualified from last weeks events) Field - https://www.usopen.com/players.html List of how they qualified - https://www.usopen.com/2024/articles/current-exempt-players-124th-us-open-pinehurst.html If I had to pick 4 players with the best chance to win it would be: - Scottie (and I would take Scottie in the Scottie vs. the field bet) - Xander - Morikawa - Brooks
  21. If you want the details, here is a linked google doc with a summary and then all the details of what and from whom, link is from an article on CNBC https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14l25NLvBOd9sk4mArK4k7dtV0MUwxr5GBuLHL5Sp8lo/edit?pli=1#gid=1166051249
  22. Hell - Greller needs to find a job that pays him money. Maybe he can find a good gig that is weekends only.
