Moving the tee back on 13 is the biggest design mistake they’ve ever made that I can remember. No one is even contemplating going for it and eliminates Rae’s Creek off the tee for most guys as well. Almost every player in the field is just fanning it out to the right and hacking it down to 60 yards....

[quote]It's tough on a once proud program (UTWBB) who now knows they are stuck way behind SCarolina and also LSU. Right now in the SEC in WBB, I see Tennessee as in the third tier with State, OMiss, and Bama. (Carolina is tops with LSU following at second in the SEC.)[/quote]

Don’t think this is true. Don’t follow or watch the sport day to day but I know the last thing Danny White wants to deal with is the bullshite that comes with that opening. No hiring men, non Summitt connections, etc. or they’ll freak out. B...

Not even close. It is heavily slanted towards the PGA guys.
JT Poston #12 player in the world and Cam Smith #41?
Cam Smith 22-1 at Augusta and JT Poston is 150-1.
Russell Henley #14, Koepka #42.
80-1 and 16-1.

re: LIV golf is unwatchable to me
Posted by volfan30 on 2/4/24 at 10:47 pm
There are several aspects of LIV that are a turn off for sure. A lot of very good players though which I enjoyed watching.
Would like to see a deal reached soon. Rahm, Cam, Brooks, DJ, Niemann, Bryson etc. competing with Scheffler, JT, Hovland, Cantlay, Xander, Spieth and company week in and week...
re: Ridiculous that ESPN even posts a leaderboard for LIV
Posted by volfan30 on 2/4/24 at 8:26 pm
LIV was very good today. Not a huge fan of the music and have no interest in the team competition but the last 5-6 holes of Rahm, Sergio and Niemann battling it out commercial free and the playoff was a better 2.5 hours than anything the PGA Tour has produced this year.
But anyone who hates LIV d...

He has been the best lefty in the game over the last 4 seasons.
I have never suggested extending him or even weighed in on it but diminishing how good he’s been in the past in order to keep pounding away at this narrative you’ve created is unnecessary. You can be against extending him without ac...

Braves signing Jose Perdomo for international signing bonus record $6.0M. 17 y/o Venezuelan SS. #1 international FA per Baseball America.
60 hit tool and 55 overall per MLB Pipeline. Baseball America throws a Gleyber Torres hit tool comp on him.

Savant page is very promising outside of the swing and miss.
AA said internally they had a young Joc Pederson comp on him.
They invested about $25M in buying him from the Mariners.
He might suck but “he sucks and has never shown anything” is an interesting take considering he literally prod...

We scored almost 1,000 runs. Bringing the offense back is essentially a no brainer. Kelenic is an interesting upside play to hit 7th/8th. Will be interesting to see who the RH OF option is.
The defense at SS is a small concern to me as well. The metrics for Arcia were ok but I would have him on a...

Our offense had the second best wRC+ of any team in the last 95 years and scored 0, 1 and 2 runs in the games we lost.
Lost 2 games where the Phillies scored 3 runs.
Fried wasn’t good but we did win the game he started.
Elder shouldn’t be starting playoff games, I don’t think anyone will di...
