Curious as well. Played it last year around Xmas and it was really nice. I hope this spring/summer finished the areas that needed more seeding. Really enjoyed my rounds there.

re: Trump Burger in Houston gets reviewed by Eater

I’ve eaten at the trump burger and her assessment on the burger is about right. It’s pretty much a whataburger. Not the best burger but perfectly fine for lunch. It’s reasonably priced and decent. Will eat there again just simply for the fact that the patrons aren’t miserable people.

Played around Christmas time. The course was still maturing from the remodel. I thought it was fantastic. Some of the greens were still working to fill in but it’s a great layout. Worth playing.

re: Best grill

Posted by Houston Texas Tiger on 3/2/25 at 4:50 pm to nosaj

What do you like to cook. I have both and they are both good at what they do but not necessarily great at all things. Pellet grills are great for the casual user. It’s basically a smoking oven. There are some that expose the flame for searing options. I like those so you can sear high heat. Egg takes more time to get the fire right but gives a better quality smoke or direct fire cooking. But it takes time to get the coals right. I feel an egg type is better but you can mess up things pretty quickly. Pellet is much easier to not screw up.

re: Anyone have the scoop on LSU Men's Tennis?

I went to the lsu rice match here in Houston. All I can say is the number one player was a freshman sho held his own against rice number one. And the number two was a sophomore. So maybe the team is on the younger side with some potential. They struggled with doubles but I think that is more of a reflection of youth. Your best doubles teams play together longer.

LSU is a better alternative than the schools mentioned. But you could add Texas state to that list. Or even one of the UT Arlington or UTSA of UH. But you can’t substitute the big college atmosphere. If his heart is at lsu encourage him to go there. Have him make smart decisions with regard to who he hangs out with and where he hangs out and the possibility of crime will be minimized.

Appreciate the advice. Most likely will.

No. But you can get one in the low to mid 100’s. Similar price to a 911. I would like to get a car that I could pass down to son that would be cool to bough for him to keep.

I was waiting to see if the S would have a manual. The T seems a little underpowered but easily tuned. 2025 is my year to get another fun car as a weekend car and I have determined it will be 100% a manual. Thought about the boxster 4.0 or spyder. Preference is a 911 but they sure don;t depreciate which I suppose is a good thing in the long run. Have done the manual BMW's and have thought about one for nostalgia sake. Maybe an older gated ferrari or Lamborghini... Feel like I need to get a good one to keep before all automakers kill them off.
