re: The 125th US Open

How many shots back do y'all think is still in play for a guy to have a chance to win this weekend? None of the guys at the top of the leaderboard seem like they are going to run away with it. You have to assume they are going to drop some shots here and there.

I also don't think any of the chasers is going to go super low. 65 seems to about as low of a score that's possible.

I am thinking 6 shots back is about as far back as you can be with a realistic shot to win.

The only thing he has going for him is that he is playing on the back 9 now. All the guys that tore it up this morning started on the back. That double was definitely not optimal though :lol:

If he likes hanging out with attractive young women in very little clothes, he will enjoy himself.
Played there last summer and really enjoyed it. It's a muni and not in the best of conditions, but for someone who never gets to play at elevation, it was awesome.
I think Xander has a better chance at getting the career grand slam then Scottie just because I am not sure how well Scottie's game translates for the Open. It seems like he does great hitting his high stock shots but has issues with the playing conditions over there.

At the same time, he's in the best player in the world and I am an idiot on a computer, so I could easily be wrong about that.
My favorite story about the PGA championship was when it was played at PGA National. Dead greens, sweltering heat and women in bikini's working the scoreboard.

As bad as people talk about it now, it has been a lot worse.

I am not a huge fan of the course, but 18 has the potential for some fireworks on Sunday.

Didn’t the Cavs get it a couple times after LeBron left?

Florida does not deserve to be ranked that high. We were terrible to start last season. We are more likely to be 2-4 to start the season than 4-2 IMO.
We've also played them 84 times, which is our 2nd most games played against any other team after UGA (103 games). That game needs to come back.
If bears were extremely dangerous and attacks were common, people would never vacation in Pigeon Forge.
I think this is really the answer.

The truth of the matter is if Sasse didn't resign, both Stricklin and Napier were probably going to be fired after the A&M game last year. Money was raised for a buyout. High level boosters thought it was a done deal. But interim president Fuch didn't want to deal with it, so it got pushed until later.

Ono definitely seems very involved in sports, which should be a good thing for Gator fans. I agree barring something like 6-6 or worse, Napier is probably safe until 2026. We have something like 10 deans that need to get replaced, and that will be Ono's biggest priority. If we start 2-4 or 3-6, which is very possible with our schedule, Ono might pull the plug quicker.

I got this knock off speed stick thing, and it has helped me considerably. I wasn't sure if it would work, and it's much cheaper, so I got the knock off. It works well enough that I haven't bought the real thing.

Those might be the three reasons, but Acho definitely inverted the order of importance.

In reality it is:

1. Questioning his ceiling - by far the most important reason. 99% of why he wasn't drafted in the first round.

2. Confidence exceeding abilities - if you think the guy is arrogant and can't back it up, I could see not wanting him in the locker room.

3. Not code-switching - by far the least important reason, maybe .00001% of the reason he fell out of the first round but most likely 0%.
I go to a non-denominational church, and have had a similar experience. The only difference was they felt like the Southern Baptist Convention was getting too liberal on teachings, so they separated. I joined after it became non-denominational, but I appreciate the more conservative teachings. I know many Methodists and Episcopalians would probably like a clean break from their governing bodies too.

It definitely is larger than I like, but they do a good job of trying to minimize that by starting satellite campuses instead of just growing the main campus.

At the end of the day, they have amazing stuff going on for my kids, which is the biggest thing for me. I want my kids to have a great base for their faith, and my church provides it.
That’s the best I’ve seen LA Knight in the ring. Fatu is impressive. Great match.
