  1. Has anyone played Maridoe yet? I’m playing there on Friday. I’ve heard it’s brutally hard.
  2. I’ve got a great schedule of golf coming up this summer/fall. Wednesday: Alotian Club Member Guest at Prairie Dunes Fourball at The Blessings in Fayetteville Fourball at the Golf Club at Castle Pines in Colorado Bandon Trip this fall with a bunch of old teammates
  3. Unfuckingbelievable. Now let’s beat the fuck out of Liverpool
  4. Our nine year old morkie/jack Russell mix tore her ACL doing her favorite thing on this earth, playing fetch. Took her to the vet, and the vet seems to think since she is a small dog that she can possible just heal naturally. Her temperament hasn’t changed. She’s happy. She will let you hold it and not show any symptoms of pain. I just still feel bad for her limping around. She’s the absolute sweetest dog. I present to the surly nation, the currently hobbled Emmy.

  5. Brewer was the one that ordered a ridiculous amount of food for his last meal and ate none of it. Now the prisoner gets whatever they are serving at Huntsville that day.
  6. I don’t know if this is where I am supposed to post this, but here goes nothing. As I shared in the Shaggy Dad thread, we lost our daughter to still birth at 8 months. I don’t drink at the house, i don’t drink at dinner or bars. The only time I drink is at the golf course. I’m really good at it. I’m a notoriously bad sleeper. I’ve been prescribed Ambien and Tizanadine for years to help with my sleep. Normally, it’s fine. Taking that stuff while drunk is a good way to die. I was doing that on a consistent basis. Doubling up on ambien if didn’t sleep well. With the anxiety and stress of losing our daughter, I couldn’t keep going. Panic attacks and constant anxiety became the norm. Friends and wife became worried, so I made some lifestyle changes. Off Ambien. Off Zoloft. On a new non narcotic sleep prescription that has worked way better than Ambien ever did. On prozac. And I’m taking a break from the booze. I’ve been more social than I have been in years. No problems or urges to drink. I just feel like a new person. Thanks for having a place for me to vent.
  7. I once had a steadfast rule that I was fine with anyone winning but Bubba. Douchebag Patrick Reed has now made it “Anyone but Bubba or Reed”. I really like Leishman and Paul Casey this week.
  8. The following schools have played in a BCS game or New Years Six bowls which started when the Playoff System started. Georgia Tech Northern Illinois Kansas Wake Forest Hawaii Utah Arkansas Kansas State Uconn Baylor UCF Boise State Illinois Granted, they did play in a Cotton Bowl in the 2000s but it was before it became attached to the playoffs. This is just astounding. I think Frost was the right hire, and will make them much improved. Let’s just pump the breaks on them being “back”.
  9. Wife rescued this dude last year. He’s the man. Attracts all the ladies at the dog park. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. So this may be a long shot. Is there a service that will buy/ship limited edition beers? So there is a beer from Land Grant Brewing in Ohio that is only sold in central Ohio. I contacted the brewery but they said they can’t ship because of restrictions on the liquor license. I don’t know anyone in the area, so having a person send it to me is out. Any suggestions?
  11. Aaron Nola signed a 4 year - 45 million dollar extension with the Phillies. That’s a really good deal for the Phillies. Nola was phenomal last year.
  12. Just good wholesome television. Barney is always funny, but it’s the secondary characters that were gold. Ernest T. Bass, Floyd, Gomer, Malcolm, Goober, Howard, Otis. Sports and Andy is basically all my parents watch on TV, so I saw them all growing up countless times. Never really gets old. I can’t even imagine how many times my dad has seen them all.
  13. Harden with George guarding him last night: 7 points, 2-9, 1-7 from 3, 3TOs. Even if George doesn’t win MVP, he’s gotta be DPOY.
  14. George has put up two monster games against his two biggest competitors for MVP in the last couple weeks. 45-11-3 against the Rockets last night 36-13-3 against the Bucks last week It’s still probably Harden’s to lose though. He’s basically carried the Rockets with Paul and Capela missing significant time.
  15. I can get used to Son scoring every game. Dude has been on a heater lately.
  16. January update: We’ve started some grief therapy. Wife wanted to give it a try and i told her i would go. Its been better than I expected. Sloane was due on December 8, so I took the wife to New Orleans to just get away. We had a great time and it really was nice not being home/near the nursery/etc. Holidays were rough on the wife and for some reason New Year’s was the roughest. The wife has gone a couple times to a group in town that has several ladies who have gone through similar things. I’m all about her getting out and talking to people. Physically, she’s great. Healed completely, has started going back to the gym. Mentally, you can just tell some days she’s having a rough time. Doctor diagnosed her with some clotting condition the other day but seemed real upbeat about treatment and what it means for us going forward and trying again. The male in me makes me want to be able to “fix” everything and what’s infuriating to me is there is no timeline. There’s nothing I can say or do. I just have to be consistent and there for her. We still don’t do well in big crowds, I’ve a full blown panic attack at her doctors appointments since. And do the the DEA reigning in doctors, it’s damn near impossible to get good drugs. Lol. I’ve started Zoloft but I’d prefer not to take something daily and just be able to take something when I know I’m going to be in tough situations. Oh well. The amount of outreach and support from friends and family and Hell even you bastards on here has been truly humbling. It has renewed my faith in humanity. We’ve gotten the green light to try again in May, so that’s our plan. Hope all goes well.
  17. Drink a lot of Spotted Cow. It’s got a pretty insane cult following up there. Can only be sold within the state of Wisconsin. New Glarus is the brewery that makes it. They have several other beers that are good.
  18. A quote that the nine other teams in the Big 12 can stand behind.
  19. Don’t know if you are playing Pebble or not, but the Tap Room in the clubhouse has really great food and beers. Lots of history. And you can go walk out to 18 green and watch people come in. It’s beautiful. Last time i was there I needed a 3 on 18 to shoot under par. I hit it in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Made 6. Oh well.
  20. Mark Dantonio having a 5:45 presser today. Wonder if he’s stepping down at Sparty.
  21. Probably him or Alex Grinch
  22. 8 team league. But it’s for 400 bucks a teams, so in general, most owners still try. Had the 7th pick and got Kamara. Barkley at 10.
