re: Match Day 1/17/25–Manchester Derby Edition
Posted by Floyd Dawg on 1/17/26 at 8:54 am to Alyosha
As a referee, it seemed a certain red and as a United fan, I’d agree with it had it been given. The ONLY reason I can see it not be given is a lack of force in the challenge. But for me, it was a no doubt red. I‘d have been reaching for my back pocket.

re: Rory is playing cavity back irons now which begs the question. Why use blades?
Posted by Floyd Dawg on 1/15/26 at 6:36 pm to MizunoDude
The ability to shape shots afforded by blade irons has been neutralized by the modern 4 piece golf ball. The ball is designed to fly straighter and not curve like previous generations.

Draw a straight line at the hash marks and make that the 3 point line.
re: 6 US Attorney's resign after push to investigate Renee Good's wife...

Their “resignation” came with a large condition; they wanted to use all their annual leave (PTO) and actually quit in April when it runs out. Bondi said no dice and fired them, which may be a moot point because the government may be forced to pay them their PTO.

thats kind of where the thinking is heading. we're staying at Sonesta Resort, which has Shipyard on/near it i believe, one of the RTJ courses just up a bit, and on the top of the island looks like oyster reef. those are 3 i'm considering.
Ok, so looking at where Sonesta is, Oyster Reef is every bit of 30 minutes away. I’d scratch that. Shipyard, RTJ and Wexford or Sea Pines would be good choices. Double check your dates as well; most all the HHI courses aerate just after Memorial Day.
re: 2026 SEC Baseball Helmet Schedule

Saw where UGA was ranked 15th overall and picked to finish 8th in the SEC. That ought to tell you what a meat grinder SEC baseball is gonna be this year.

Highly recommend playing the Monday after the event. Tee markers and hole locations are left in the Sunday spots and it’s a ball trying to play the course in tournament condition. I did it for 5-6 years and had a ball.

Yes the grandstands should be at least started by end of March. Tournament isn’t until third weekend in April so they may be done.
re: Hilton Head recs

Grew up in the area and have gone on several buddies trips to HHI over the years.
The first questions I would ask is where are you staying? It matters; for example, Old South Golf Links and Hilton Head National are actually not on the island and can be a bitch to get to for an early morning tee time. Traffic is horrendous even with the bypass.
After you nail down where you are staying, I’d pick golf courses relatively close by. We used to stay at Palmetto Dunes and play all 3 of their courses and got a really good deal for our group of 12-16. Is anyone a member at a private club? If so, ask your pro to call to see if he can get you on Long Cove Club. Best course on the island by far and I’ve played them all. Each plantation has 1-2 tracks that are decent. I like Indigo Run and Port Royal as well. Shipyard and Wexford are okay.

re: Will we eventually see people opt out of the NFL entirely?
Posted by Floyd Dawg on 1/14/26 at 8:13 am to chalmetteowl
Played 3-4 years in the NFL and became a neurosurgeon.
I could see the following trend happening- to be fully vested in the NFL pension, you have to be on the 53 man gameday roster for the average NFL career length (which is 3 years and 4-5 games last I checked). Practice squad does not count. I could see guys who wisely invest their NIL and their NFL money walk away as soon as they vest their pension. They can start collecting at age 55 and it depends on how many years they played. Matt Stafford’s pension will be close to $100K annually.

I expect it will be similar to the Battery next to Truist Park. If so it should be very popular.

His opponent (Mondale) was from Minnesota. No fraud needed to win that state and was perfectly understandable.

Except against UGA in the Peach Bowl. Hadn’t run all year long and we had no answer to stop it.
re: Do you know any lawyers who do immigration?
Posted by Floyd Dawg on 1/13/26 at 12:56 pm to lionward2014
My brother and his wife (no pics, Japanese national) hired an immigration lawyer to assist them with the green card application and process for her. It wasn’t cheap, but he told me it was worth every penny. Immigration lawyers don’t just help keep people from being deported, they also help people legally get status to stay and eventually citizenship.

They should pay state income taxes and the “jock tax” is coming for them next.
re: You Baws who are “On call” for work
Posted by Floyd Dawg on 1/9/26 at 11:26 pm to Planetarium
My brother is an engineer for Exxon and is “on call” during holiday periods. I’ll have to ask him if he gets paid for it; he makes really good money so I’d be surprised if he gets extra pay for it.

Great response by UO there.
re: Is Indiana's dominance sustainable going forward?
Posted by Floyd Dawg on 1/9/26 at 5:44 pm to QJenk
Indiana has more 6th year seniors than underclassmen on their roster. I can’t see how that is in any way sustainable. This is the final year of the COVID waivers, so some balance may return to the Force.

Just landed at ATL and there are LOTS of IU fans in the airport. Late night flights from Indy and Evansville were full.
