    TPC Sawgrass

    Stadium course is very good. You will realize how precise you need to be with your irons on many of the holes to score well. The drive on 18 is very difficult. The 17th hole is so fun. You can guess which hole I played better.

    OT: With golf season coming up for you northerners, what do you do to prepare for the season? Any special drills or routines you go through?

    OT: With golf season coming up for you northerners, what do you do to prepare for the season? Any special drills or routines you go through?

    I hit the driving range to work on the new improved swing I anticipate having after working out and studying golf videos during the winter. I read a few books by Norman Vincent Peale. By my last range session I visit an ATM and put away some cash in my golf bag in anticipation of the numerous...

    Tiger Woods in another car crash.

    I stand corrected. Whenever a friend says to me I'm afraid to fly, I typically say "you are at more risk driving to or from the airport".

    Tiger Woods in another car crash.

    Third time for this gentleman, and yet the press will continue to defend him. I'm sorry, but if this was an average joe, there would not be the same level of mercy or understanding.

    Your way too early season prediction?

    I believe that if you have a good offensive line and good QB play you can win every game you play. We will have a very good offensive line in 2026 and the best college QB we have had in the last 20 years...and yes, I am saying he is better than our recent string of solid QB's. . We will beat...

    FC/OT: Thank You.

    I believe a parents true happiness is found in two things: How good their marriage was, and how good their childrens journey through life is. Sounds like your mom was two for two on that scoreboard. She is smiling from the other side. Blessings to your dad and your family.

    Does anyone say “merchandise” anymore?

    Rumor has it that Shakespeare originally called his work "The Merchandise of Venice" but was later quoted by friends saying "I know it will likely get shortened some day, so i decided to change it instead".... and then he dropped the "D" for a "T". He had to rework the whole script as a result...

    Growing momentum for the 24-team playoff

    All of your points are sound and valid, yet the TV ratings do not agree. The ratings have increased sharply with the expanded pool, likely due to the reality that more teams can participate in the playoffs, that's its not the same 6-8 teams every year that dominated to sport for 20 years. It...

    Legend Robert Duvall died

    When you think of The Natural, you think of Redford and Duvall first. The Judge was supposed to be the villain, but Duvall was so good you think of him as the bad guy.
