Bill Belichick Rides Again: Hired at North Carolina to build NIL NFL Factory
I think Mack is laughing big time. Of course he had the curse on recruits, but what about coaches? Strong check, now this, how about Torbush! Wow....17-18 at UNC. Gotta give it up for Mack, assuming Bill crashes and burns the Mack Coach Curse will be confirmed.

San Antonio
The wife and I are moving to an apartment a stone's throw from Brackendridge Park. Seems to be a nice older area, and the manager pointed out we will be within walking distance to "the Pearl district." Anybody know of good spots to eat near Brackenridge Park?

TurboTax
stupid but effective Turbo Tax. I have read the myth about a free e-file for a couple of years, tried again this year. This is a very simple return, 3 total W-2s, for the wife and myself. Our AGI was low enough, below $84k, to qualify for a "free efile", so I fell for the sucker bet and tried a free e-file last night. It is my turn to get the large refund. Sure enough the IRS would not accept my return, yada yada, PIN this whatever. My wife who works overnight comes home and jams the numbers in Turbo Tax, and it almost works the first time, but she transposed a number so IRS would not accept the return. I knew this would not be a free return but because I am the professional procrastinator supreme, I had little choice but to accept her inputting the numbers. One good thing, we made the numbers hum, as they numbers came out exactly the same. When it came for Turbo Tax to help her fix her transposition mistake, they were available on the phone, which is more I can say for my cheapo allegedly $0 cost return place. So, the charge is $137.51 to file a fairly easy return and I get the big refund. This is the last year I will have been on the dark side of income tax refunds. Forever and ever I did the correct thing, nailing the return within about $100 or so either way, but I got tired of the IRS bugging me, so when I came over to the dark side, they miraculously stopped bothering me. Only about 3 to 4 years on the dark side. I am now retired, and will have plenty of time to tinker with W-4s throughout the year. I plan to owe the IRS about $200 next year. I plan to pay with a paper check, to mail in the return via snail mail and for the return to take about 8 weeks to process, assuming they still take paper returns next year. I guess the thing that bugs me now is that I was never able to participate in a free e-file. Oh well. Here is to retirement!!😃

Rory is inside of Bryson on the green I think. Even Rory doesn't miss this putt??

That shot of Rory's just now was so damn good it reminded me of Jack's 2nd at 15 in 1986!

Weird thing is Rory still has two birdie holes left to play. If he revs it up, he can birdie 15 and 16, game over. Rose will have the clubhouse lead, which puts him in the better position.

Dan Patrick gave Nantz that line in an interview earlier this week. "Glory for Rory" Nantz just about guaranteed he would use it, and they joked about putting it on the credits at the end of the broadcast.

CBS keeps showing Conners, like they think he is gonna make a massive comeback or something. Not happening.

The Masters 2025
If he plays a perfect round and shoots a 64, he has a chance. Maybe a tiny chance, but still a chance.

The Masters 2025
well, maybe he won't be out there until midnight after all!

The Masters 2025
Did Lowry and Rose both take themselves out of contention with those two misses?

The Masters 2025
He really is gonna be out hitting balls until midnight, isn't he?
