Turtleboy is shining a bright light on the vile scumbags in Canton

Fr Butler. Great choice

Talked about it after the Masters. I was in the car a bunch today so listened to the No Laying Up Pod interviewing a guy from the USGA about setup, redesign, etc. Pretty cool. Mostly because it looks like it will be pretty dry the next week. And that means carnage. I love US Open carnage.

This is the link to the pool I created. I have been in a bunch of these using this hosting site. Format is pretty simple. Pick six golfers using a salary cap format. Top four scores will count which means you almost certainly need four guys to make the cut to win. If three of the six make the cut, your fourth score will be the worst round shot on Saturday and then, again, Sunday. With this course and with the amount of amateurs who are playing, it might honestly be something in the high 80s/90 that counts for you. That means you will not be winning. So, try to get four and have a chance.


Fee: $25
Venmo: @bshay21. Please do not say "Dear IRS, this is a pool for gambling" in the note. Just whatever username you use for the pool. I'll figure it out.

Payout: If we have less than ten (which would be criminal), the winner will get it all. If it is 10+, winner will get 80%, 2nd place will get 20%. The tiebreaker question is winning score. If that is tied, we will go whatever single golfer in your picks shot the best round in any of the four rounds. Tie after that, we will split.

Fees: The site charges $20 for the first ten entries. I will happily pay that because I love (most) of you. That also pays for the British Open. There is a small fee per entry above that which I will subtract out of the payout. Feel free to invite friends, family, criminal associates.

I am defending a member/guest title starting next Friday/Saturday but will certainly checking in depending on bourbon level. And god bless whatever human being put the final round on Father's Day. I have an early April bday so I usually get birthday weekend during the Masters. My wife (does not) loves this. Tier 1A sporting events.

Let's get it to 25 entries!!

The champ is here!

An interesting article might be to take a look at New England players in the NFL from 2010-today. Their background, ratings, college careers, journeys, etc. Maybe they stayed local for college, maybe they went to Michigan, ND, etc.

I’d be curious, for one. Might also show how good (or not!) New England is at producing talent.

They control the media and the courts and the Congress. God help us.

First of all, 2025 sounds like a year in Buck Rogers but here we are. Second, pretty good pod I listened to in the car. C's, Sox, Pats game coming up. Middle part was with Lou Merloni. Interesting take on the free agent class and trade ideas. Good way to kick this new thread off short of a Soto deal.

Got this great quote out of him today... (should be free on the site)

Also, it's TERRIBLE, but game day is literally the worst place on earth if you hate traffic. I'd honestly take Rte. 1 on a Sunday over Chestnut Hill on a Saturday in the fall

Good listen, recommend highly.

Given the sudden destruction of the Celtics Franchise lets hop into the NFL season:

Pats over 8.5 wins (+100) : Schedule includes Jets 2x, Dolphins 2x, Horrific NFC South of Tampa/Carolina/Atlanta/Saints, Last place teams: Raiders/Browns/Titans and the Giants and the Qb-less Steelers. The "Good" teams they have are Ravens/Bengals/Bills 2x

Gotta figure the Pats improve a lot with year 2 Maye, an influx of free agents/draft picks and competent people as coaches.

The Belmont, RBC Golf, Yanks/Red Sox, College WS and Keeks throwing out the first pitch (it was a ball and it counted) at The Savannah Banana's vs Party Animals in Charlotte. They will draw over 140k fans for a two game series Panther Stadium. 80k fans at Clemson Stadium. What a story. It is actually fun to watch.

What are the rumors?
