@Mike_kim714 @JoshACarpenter @SBJ @TheMasters I'd imagine a lot of nostalgia is lost for the players who haven't won.

@JoshACarpenter @SBJ @TheMasters Players (non champions) will not be using the normal lockerroom anymore which is good and bad at the same time

@td_nash Dream for me. No weaknesses. No hack Hakeem.
But we all know if you had either dude on your team you had the paint taken care of.

@wil_da_beast630 If you play ball and have had it said to you, it is a back handed compliment

The sensitivity on all sides is beyond belief.

LeBron says teammate Austin Reaves doesn’t “play like a white boy” 1. What does that even mean? 2. Imagine if a white guy said this about a black guy. Media would have a meltdown. 3. How does Steve Nash sit there & listen to this nonsense?

@IrvinsFur @sdtmgolf Not surprised on the difficulty with the narrow ass tee shot and then up hill to a green where you can't see the landing area. It is a great finishing hole.

@takeitlow65 @sdtmgolf 18 is a beast (2nd hardest last year). But the front right pin placement is the most gettable.
English

@IrvinsFur @sdtmgolf Sure, it could have been closer, but compared to the previous years final round approach, this was a dart 😅
English

@dopson_steve @sdtmgolf Nope, this is from 87. You're thinking of 86.

@takeitlow65 @sdtmgolf Pretty sure that was for par. He pushed his iron shot into the green to the right into the crowd.

No such thing as the British Open just Americans calling it by the wrong name.
Claude is clear and is the bastion of truth
“The Open Championship was indeed simply called “The Open” from its very first edition in 1860 at Prestwick. It was the original open golf championship — open to any golfer, amateur or professional — hence the name. There was no need to specify “British” because at the time there was no other Open to distinguish it from.
The “British Open” label crept in largely through American usage. As golf expanded globally and the US Open was established in 1895, American broadcasters, journalists and fans needed a way to differentiate between the two events for their audience. Calling it the “British Open” was a natural shorthand — it told American viewers exactly where it was being played without needing any further explanation, although they didn’t need to, one is the Open and the other is the US Open.
Over decades that Americanism became so widespread, particularly through US television coverage, that it stuck with American audiences — even though it was never the official name and was always considered incorrect, or at least imprecise, by purists and the R&A.
The R&A have been pretty deliberate in recent years about pushing back on it. Their branding, broadcasting deals and communications consistently use “The Open Championship” or simply “The Open” — and you’ll notice the on-screen graphics and commentary on the official broadcast now strictly avoids “British Open.”
So it’s essentially a case of an informal American nickname becoming so embedded that it outlasted its usefulness — even as the R&A reasserted the original and correct name. For anyone who knows their golf history, “British Open” is a bit like calling Augusta the “Georgia Masters.” Technically communicates something, but misses the point entirely.

@rumar4u @VinnysCorner1 Yep, he was 20-0 going into that fight and recovered with some wins before De La Hoya. Do you think he was rushed into the big fights or something else?
English

@takeitlow65 @VinnysCorner1 Don't forget what Trinidad did earlier to him as well...

@RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 Did you know when Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone he had two missed calls from Chuck Norris.

@kurt13warner So what you are saying is the next HOF QB could be down the street working the Wendy's drive thru while he gets overlooked by most pro executives and scouts?
By the way, do we know how you got the AFL gig? Seems like you weren't "overlooked" by everyone, thankfully.

More to my point about PRODUCTION vs POTENTIAL:
I sat on BENCH at a SMALL school for 4 yrs —> played 1 yr and was Player of Year in Conf
Got cut by GB after getting 0 snaps in game
—> worked in a grocery store —> signed in Arena Football League
Played 3 yrs in AFL, top QB in league & played in Arena Bowl 2x…
Went to NFLEurope was top QB statically that season…
Signed with Rams & sat bench all year in 98…
When slated to be starter after Trent got hurt the whole world said the Rams are finished, no way this small school, stock boy, arena football, backup QB can play… bc they failed to see the production EVERY time I played!
They were looking at all the wrong things, when I had played, I played well and that carried over to NFL as you would expect… follow the production 1st!

@JspecTheHost 😂 so true. Maybe a spelling bee though. That would fun!
I only saw a couple of his real fights back in the day, but it was crazy to me how confident he was. So matter of fact he would knock anyone out. Anyone!
