  1. The “I bet he’s thinking about other women” meme is a great platform.
  2. I’m guessing it might be a lot sooner than we think.
  3. Losing Cam Smith is not good for the Tour. The thing is though, the Tour is what made Cam Smith. And when he’s gone, another 25 year old who worked his ass off and played the KFT and the opposite field events will win a British Open or The Masters. He’ll rise in the OWGR, get all the sponsorships, an no one will even be thinking about Cam Smith. LIV is a very lucrative one-way ticket to irrelevance. For all their talk of growing the game, LIV hasn’t even made a token effort to set up a feeder league or relationships with junior / amateur golf. Competition is what creates great golfers, not money. Eventually the Saudis will tire of trying to pick off the good golfers at a nine-figure price tag and the whole thing will disappear into thin air.
  4. What red line? After all, this was just an accidental ammo explosion. Right?
  5. Glad to see the Russians fleeing Crimea like rats off a sinking ship.
  6. Manpower is one issue, but Russia is also running out of weapons. I seriously doubt that the NK deal with come through - not least of all because Kim knows half of them will surrender to the first non-Russian they see outside of NK. But if it does, are they just going to human wave attack? Or will they bring their own weapons?
  7. I like when they add “terrorist and murderer” to the Russian officer death announcements.
  8. The most important thing for civilians, by far, is that the Russian troops are prevented from advancing and eventually pushed back. And let’s not pretend that the Russians only fire on civilian infrastructure if Ukrainian troops are located there. They destroy schools and hospitals with indiscriminate artillery fire as a matter of doctrine. And then they rape and murder the civilians once they take control of the town. UA should use any and every structure needed to successfully defend their territory. Amnesty International can STFU.
  9. They are slowly but surely gaining ground in the south around Kherson. I actually think the “return on investment” thing is a little different. Our main goal here is to grind the Russian military into dust, with the secondary (but still important) goal of restoring Ukraine’s territorial control. If it takes a long time for the latter, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Every day that Russia is fighting in Ukraine means fewer weapons and men that could hypothetically be involved in a future conflict with the US / NATO.
  10. I hope that Russian military life is as miserable as possible until they collapse as a nation.
  11. https://amp.theguardian.com/sport/2022/jul/31/henrik-stenson-leads-but-donald-trump-steals-the-limelight LIV event turns into a MAGA rally. What better way to “grow the game”?

  13. Orcs in Kherson are about to have a bad time.
  14. This makes a lot of sense. It certainly doesn’t seem that they’re currently limited by too few HIMARS to accomplish the mission.
  15. Remember when everyone thought this guy was the savior of humanity? He pretty much just seems like a douche right now.
  16. Just throw a couple of pieces of scrap metal in there and cover it with cement. Good as new. 🤡
  17. Can Hungary be kicked out of the EU?
  18. Hilarious that the Russians would ask for a safe evacuation corridor after what they did in Mariupol.
  19. You gotta have a fall guy. /cris carter
  20. It’s clear that the PGA Tour will never be able to match LIV dollar for dollar. The Saudi PIF is too much to handle. Although they did go back to their sponsors and get a lot of new money for the “Top 50” tournament series starting next year. What it comes down to is that players who care about tradition and legacy are going to stick with the PGA Tour. And they’re not going to live in poverty either. Guys who are in it only for money are going to hop to LIV. I predict that LIV won’t exist for more than 3-4 years though.
  21. Anyone who suggests that we should reduce support to Ukraine should read this article.
  22. It’s pretty clear how Russia ended up like this. They get taken over by a dictator, who then kills / disappears a bunch of political opponents while stealing the national wealth to enrich himself. Reasonable and smart people realize this is a shit situation and leave the country ASAP. Repeat this cycle a couple of times and what you’re left with is a country populated only by thugs and sheep.
  23. Kazakhstan taking a pretty strong stance against Russia. I like it.
  24. Listening to Belarus do their best “intimidating Russia” impression is pretty funny.
  25. I agree that we missed on bringing in an impact edge player - maybe we should have paid Mathis what he was asking for. But Diamonte Tucker-Mathis was potentially a big pickup at LB. He’s exactly the kind of guy who has kicked our asses at the MLB position at places like Baylor and TCU for years.
