Cool story, bro. Really. PGA Club Pro and the People's champion for the week, 46 year old Michael Block has played his way into invitations to the Schwab Challenge event at Colonial this week followed by the Canadian Open in June.

Wife caught me cutting onions watching his interview lol

There is a lot of evidence that FDR and the U.S. military leaders antagonized Japan and goaded them into attacking prior tk Pearl Harbor. Not saying that we wanted Pearl Harbor to happen but that we were hoping for some sort of Japanese action that would result in U.S. citizens supporting entering the war.

Definitely would not be the first or last time that politicians and military brass have looked for ways to drum up support for a military campaign.

I have heard that too. One of those things that you hope couldn’t be true, but also believe that it could have happened just that way.

I was writing about the old tropes more than your post.

Without any doubt, the most racist place I have ever been is China. I regret that we took our child on that vacation. I hated every second of being there. The most fun part was my son spotted our Govt agents tailing us. I was OSI and they were watching closely whenever I spoke to any Chinese person.

Even the government provided tour guides made sure we knew they hated us and only tolerated our presence because of our cash. i suggest no one ever tour China for pleasure.

My heart is still in Japan. My wife would leave everything to move back there, if I said we were going.

Don't know how I missed this tweet on Beasley.

The close-up details in this image are messed up. Sally was trying to make ren & stimpy as vol fans. . .

Thank you for the smile that brought to my face.

Our inside linebackers could learn a lot from listening to Ray Lewis. Even something as simple as mindset. Be the intimidator.. Put fear in the hearts of the opposing team. Make them fear the hit they know is coming.

I want his Club Pro job. He’s not folding shirts, running the LGA, and answering phone calls asking, “what time does the 8:30 shotgun start.”

Well when does it start? I gotta know when to pregame

Ever talked to or been around Colin
Montgomerie?

My oldest son’s AF unit recently worked a tournament in Birmingham that Colin was at. Without going into detail, he did not have good things to say (and his group was ‘warned’ about him).

Had an encounter with him at 2001 PGA championship in a practice round. Buddy of mine and I took our 8 year old sons. They were chasing autographs of course. Coming off 9th green was Ernie Els, Sergio Garcia, Retief Goodsen, and Colin. The first three stopped to sign their hats and even gave one a ball and the other a glove. Colin basically cussed the kids and knocked a pen out of my sons hand. Let's just say I take great joy in any misfortune he has on the golf course.

He also said he gives 2-3 lessons a WEEK and he charges $150 per hour.

You should have responded like Doc Holliday. Why wifey I apologize I forgot you were there. You may go now.

...and that was now @drvenner met his untimely end when Mrs. @drvenner burned him to cinders with laser beams shot from her eyes.

The End.

Henry T was an Aaron Beasley wannabe.

Trust the Heup. Trust the coaches.

Reminds me of my experience with Geronimo Berroa… I was an 11-12 yr old kid and had a ball thrown to me at a KJAY game…. My favorite player was Berroa at the time… After the game…. Kids would wait near where the players exited the field for autographs… I asked Berroa for an autograph…. He cussed me and told me to get the F out of his way…. I started hoping he would fail so badly.

It helps if you look like Ray Lewis…. That is one scary man.

Well, the irony is that a PGA player didn’t win the PGA championship. Whatever one thinks of LIV, that is ironic.

On a doubly-ironic note, I think Brooks will be back on the PGA Tour pretty soon.

Will that even be a possibility? He has contracts, and the PGA seems to have closed that door with the ban.

 

[CAVPUT]

Haha...dogs are the absolute best!

It would be like USC or Ohio State winning the SEC Championship

It's really not like that at all, as the SEC championship isn't even open to other participants. The Fedex cup is probably more akin to that because it'd never happen.

The PGA is a tour where private contractors are given cards to play on the tour. There are exemptions for non-PGA private contractors to play in tournaments with the chance to win. That's really all it is.

It's more akin to a contractor being brought into a corporate environment and outperforming the other (more long term) private contractors over a four day period.

 

[Orange_Crush]

I get it, but the analysis of whether something is ironic doesn’t go very deep.

For example, if a candy salesman won a tournament sponsored by the American Dental Association, it would be ironic. That’s the whole analysis: a rote observation of circumstances. There are no value judgments or historical perspectives involved. No nuanced parsing of the details.

It's about as ironic as anything in the song.

How will Ryder Cup selection be performed now? Ryder Cup is great

Just like they always have. There won't be any LIV golfers representing.

Yeah…he was cussing them. The other golfers signed balls for them. He didn’t. Needless to say, my son wasn’t impressed.
