Sunday i had been to go to the grocery store to get supplies but couldn't. I decided to try Uber Eats for the first time as I use Uber from...

    Anyone else see the 20 year old

    kid win the Am Ex tourney at PGA West??? Historic moment....last guy to do it was some lefthander by the name of Mickelson back in '91. Before that it was Scott Verplank. And he wasn't playing against bums either...he had JT and Sam Burns with him in the last group. Compelling sports TV imo.

    For you NFL fans, I have a question about TL..

    I am speaking of Trevor Lawrence. I know he got drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars and has some modest/decent success to date. In college he was looked upon as being an Andrew Luck, John Elway or Peyton Manning generational type QB. Is he projecting out to be what everyone thought he was back...

    First COFH game…

    Since sometime in the early 90’s when I moved out of state and dropped my season tickets. I did not post last night because I wanted some time to cool off. WTBS, it was a great game. I have nothing to add there. What I came here to post was that I had forgotten about how much I detest a...

    A question for any NBA fans here...

    my son has season tickets for an NBA team. I don't follow the sport since the "golden era" of the 80's...the Showtime Lakers, the Celtics with DJ, the Chief, Bird and McHale, the Bad Boy Pistons, etc. My son who is in his mid-30's and is really into this particular sport, insists that Nikola...

    Attended the FedX/St. Jude golf tournament today

    Couple of comments since it has been years since I attended a pro golf event. I took my 10 yo grandson. We were in two places at various times through the day where you could get really close to the players as the moved from the green to the next tee. Several of the players stoppped and...

    The US Open and father's day

    one of the best weekends of the year (imo). Smoked ribs and fixins, golf tomorrow with my posse, gin and tonic in copious amounts, new underwear and socks. I've already picked out a new sprinkler and hose for myself. Does life get any better than this? Who do you like? Rory is a good (safe)...

    Question about cell phone etiquette

    so today I was in a medical waiting room waiting for my spouse to have some minor medical procedure. (Of course) she was admitted 1-1/2 hour past her scheduled time so I spent the better part of the afternoon sitting there waiting. In the meantime, I sat there and witnessed (and was forced to...

    in this era of aluminum bats....

    what is a good benchmark for a ERA for a college pitcher? Additionally, is college baseball talent on the level of single A minor league baseball? Double AA? Or something else? When I watched, played and followed baseball an era of 3 was sort of the norm. I looked up some data from from various...

    Did you see the BMW golf tournament

    yesterday? That was one of the best and exciting tournaments I have ever seen, including the majors. Cantlay's performance was one of the most amazing clutch putting days I've witnessed and he did need some luck in the way of Dechambeau missing several makeable opportunities to seal the deal...

    Random question about the transfer portal..

    perhaps this has been discussed here and I missed it. If so, my apologies. Here is my question and it involves a hypothetical scenario. Let's say that a school has an extremely well liked and respected (by the players and their families) head coach but the HC is ultimately fired based on his...

    Anyone have a pellet grill?

    Costco is having their annual deal with Traegar grills. I love smoking/grilling/etc. and have an XL ceramic grill plus a weber kettle on the back porch. The Weber is on its last legs and I have been thinking of replacing it. The small traegar (or equivalent model from another mfr.) looks like a...

    Marketing/sales question for the experts here...

    My private sector background was in operations, engineering and manufacturing so the marketing and sales stuff always puzzled me a bit. With that background, here is a scenario I dealt with today and a resulting question(s) - My 5 yo AV receiver just went on the fritz. Of course it is out of...

    US Open picks after round 2

    Who do you like? If forced to pick one, I figure Jon Rahm is going to win one sooner rather than later. Heard an announcer, can't remember if it was on TV or Sirius radio, discuss the possibilty of a Bryson vs Brooks matchup in the last group Sunday. That would be great to see!!! Although it...

    any of you dealing with the new Bermuda Triangle?

    As of today, I am still short 3 shipments that I was expecting before Christmas (ordered between 11/28 and 12/06). One is a new laptop that has shown out for delivery since 12/11. I have contacted the manufacturer and they will replace it once it is received. But now I am not sure it will ever...
