UNC has made it to the national championship 3 times in the last decade. Nobody else can match that. Only two other schools have been twice. And Jay Williams’ school hasn’t been at all!

"If North Carolina didn't have that logo, I'm not sure we'd be talking about them as a blue blood. ... I can make a case that they're not a top 5 current, relevant team in college basketball." —@RealJayWilliams on UNC men's basketball 👀

Lydia Ko found me on the range Tuesday at the Founders Cup and asked if we could reschedule our lunch interview for later that afternoon. The range was packed and players were waiting for a spot to hit. Then later, as her practice round dragged on, she asked if we could bump it to breakfast the next day – 7 a.m. It was there, over a plate of eggs, that we talked about retirement and how she plans to say goodbye (she doesn't want a retirement parade). We talked about how she's come to realize that she doesn't really love golf, not like many of her peers do, anyway. We talked about what drives her now. It was a 45-minute conversation, and I left feeling grateful. Ko was 16 the first time she told me that she planned to retire at age 30, two days after she made her first paycheck as a pro. She was always destined for greatness. But the woman she's become – the wisdom she carries – is what separates her now. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports/g…

You can call yourself the ‘fifth major’ once your crowd starts behaving like the one at Augusta. Deal?

Footage from the cabin of a United Boeing 787 shows passengers carrying their luggage during the emergency evacuation of Flight 2127 at LAX — a procedure that is supposed to be completed in 90 seconds or less. We never learn, do we?
Turbine Traveller@Turbinetraveler

A United Airlines Boeing 787-9 flight 2127 bound for Newark with 256 passengers and 12 crew made an emergency return to LAX shortly after departure due to a left engine issue. Emergency slides deployed and Fire crews hosed down visible smoke on arrival.

@AugustaGolfGirl You will not regret it. Make sure to include some of the fabulous links courses not on the rota. That is the real Scottish golf experience.

@joshwgoodson Yet at 71, I get abused for playing the “senior” tees.

When should one play the blue tees instead of the white tees? I don’t hit it super far. My thought is I want to play the tees that I could theoretically have a birdie putt with my normal play

Pleasant surprise this morning to have an email from @CrailGolf saying my waitlist number had come up and offered membership to the club. Incredible honor to be part of the 7th oldest club in the world and an Old Tom design. Fife roots are taking shape nicely. See you in June.

I’m just about to turn 65. I’ve been employed as an airline pilot for 36 years. I’m reasonably intelligent, but admittedly far from a wunderkind, and with no offers to work for the JPL or NASA. Pretty much an average guy who’s outstanding at being humble. At at age 64, I had to learn how to fly the most complex and advanced airliner currently in service, the Airbus A350. I had flown the relatively simplistic Boeing 767 for the past 25 years, and had never flown an Airbus, which is completely different in almost every way from a Boeing. I was the oldest person to attempt going through the Delta’s A350 Initial Qualification training program. I was warned that even much younger pilots were finding the training to be extremely challenging, and that because of my age, success might not be an option. It was an extremely complex airplane. The training manual is literally 7000 pages long. Countless Training videos, 6 weeks of simulators, extremely difficult electronic and oral exams. “It can’t be done, old guy”, many said. BULLSHIT! I went through the training and actually had an easy time of it. It was no more challenging than when I went through MD-11 training in 1991, at age 34, even though the A350 was a much more difficult training program. I had no decline in my learning ability in 30 years, and aced the very challenging program without any trouble. If I can maintain my ability to easily learn complex tasks into my mid-60’s, hell, anyone can. To answer the question: For some it might be age 30, or 40, or 50, etc, etc. However, everyone is different. Some people are still extremely lucid and able to learn well into their 90’s. Don’t assume. Don’t count yourself out at any age. Don’t be prejudiced against older people and sell them short, because many of them are still as sharp or even sharper than you. Treat all people well, especially older people, because in the blink of an eye you’re going to be one of them, and you’re going to love it when someone treats YOU with dignity and a little bit of respect.

Another angle has been released of Lamelo Ball’s crash. We slowed it down so that you can clearly see who is at fault.

Royal Dornoch was there before any of us. It’ll be there when we’re gone. And our chance at seeing it, or anything else, gets smaller every day. lyingfour.com/conversations-…

I guarantee Hunter Hess is the most shocked person on planet Earth today with the pushback he's getting on social media because he's lived in a liberal bubble his whole life and was convinced that 99% of Americans agreed with his anti-American views!
