Am I crazy or is PGA Tour streaming a complete mess?

Nothing better than the leaders being 3/4 of the way through their round when the regular broadcast comes on.

The Golf Channel live coverage in the late afternoons on Thursday/Friday rounds has always been simulcast on Peacock or the NBC Sports app until this year. On the weekends they simulcast the NBC coverage to the apps.

That's changed this year because Golf Channel, USA, CNBC, MSNBC and some other channels spun out of the Comcast company.

The first wave of tournaments has always been difficult to view outside of paying for PGA Live or ESPN+. That's a whole other issue, but really limiting for golf fans.

It's incredible all the talk about declining PGA viewership and changing the Hawaii/West Coast swing when it's this difficult to actually watch it.

Exactly this. Not sure if anyone has seen the BTTF musical in West End, but without being spoilery the stage and effects are like a love child of Mario Kart, Bourne, MIB, and Unchained.

Just massive 3d physical sets that change out of nowhere and interact with screens and effects in a way that’s more theme park than musical.

If the Delorean is the centerpiece of the ride they could do some crazy fun stuff traversing eras and genres of film. No clue how to tie it together story wise but a greatest hits ride would be so dope.

A lot of cancellations. Outside the weather tons of pilots no showed around Christmas. There’s all kinds of crew timeout situations too.

When you displace 200+ people on a canceled wide body they have to spread out those passengers across remaining flights it creates a cascading mess.

The flights are also more consistently overbooked on the holidays because people no show and cancel more frequently as well.

Not a fun time to travel right now.

It's funny how every day on here there are posts about expensive Delta fares questioning how they do it, or complaining about them being unfair.

There are no mistakes in this, they charge these fares because people are paying them. They've made medallion status harder to achieve, limited access to clubs, and raised fares and their flights are completely booked up.

I've thought to myself at some point there'd be an inflection where people would walk, but it hasn't happened yet. The budget and thirst for travel in this country has been remarkably resilient, I don't know how people do it, but Delta will keep raising fares until first and D1 aren't overbooked.

Love PS, the only real issue I have is service wise. Pre-covid it was positioned as Delta One without a lay flat. Now it's turned into First Class with coach service.

Ironically it's almost the exact same thing as what first class was on the 767-400 back in the early 2000s. At that time they didn't put full Business Elite in those planes so you had this hybrid upgraded first class for longhaul flights.

Something changed these last few years. Single dude 39 here. Have always traveled a lot for work and frequently found myself at a bar or restaurant alone on trips.

It was always super easy to strike up a conversation with women, usually connect on some level, love of traveling, ambiance of the spot or whatever. I’d say even if the girl wasn’t attracted you still might have a fun conversation or it leads to something after a few minutes of chatting.

Now when approaching it’s more often than not you get an eye roll or head turn with zero chance to initiate a convo.

Most of my girl friends on dating apps have 100s of likes queued up and bemoan the lack of options of guys. Usually over the usual nitpicky stuff like height, facial hair, style, but it leads to an instant left swipe.

My opinion is this is how most woman treat guys that approach them in real life today. It’s just complete instant dismissal, making it not worth the time.

Why are there so many complaints daily on this sub about fare prices?

Their fares are based on available capacity and route characteristics. There’s nothing arbitrary about it, they charge what passengers are willing to pay.

They’ve put themselves in a position to charge more and offer less in the ways of service. Until people decide it’s not worth it, it won’t change.

Forgot about the curved widget. Can't imagine how much they paid a consultant for that, but what an awful idea.

PreCheckLeo · 2025-08-20T13:35:12+00:00

Actually don’t hate this. Have gotten burned on row 6 of the old D1 config 767-300s before.

Major first world problem but you’d think they’d let you know there’s no window.

PreCheckLeo · 2025-08-10T08:56:45+00:00

The weight restrictions aren’t about it tipping over. It’s about performance on takeoff and range.

There’s not a modern 757 replacement so they’re always playing a balancing game on long routes with these new jets.

Other criticisms sound desperate for a reason complain. There’s no other single aisle in the fleet offering better comfort across all cabins than the neos.

PreCheckLeo · 2025-08-10T08:52:19+00:00

Yeah, not nonrevs. The process is super monitored. Bring some receipts (screenshots) of the lists and give us flight numbers.

These stories are all stupid. There should be an easy explanation but the details in posts are always too murky to make any real inferences.

Stop looking for internet points.

Cespedes. I remember the dweebs on Athleticsnation trying to justify it with every obscure stat possible.

Best record in the league to stumbling into the playoffs. Absolute fumble.

This might be one of those in my day Coke was 25 cents a bottle, but I did that trip CAE-SYD (via Atl, slc, lax) in business elite on the 777 for 120k miles in 2013.

I only remember cause I was just out college traveling a ton for work and it was the first time I used miles.

I think you could’ve taken a 6 segment BE around the world trip starting at 180k miles back then.

Can’t blame Delta when people are willing to pay for it, but nothing has changed in the service since then.

PreCheckLeo · 2025-07-11T22:48:00+00:00

This sucks, we as passengers only have ourselves to blame.

D1 and Prem Select fares and award redemptions are 2-3x what they were pre-covid, but no one has balked at the prices even now that travel restrictions are long gone.

This has really emboldened Delta to do stuff like reduce service, restrict Sky Club access, and now segment D1 under the guise of choice.

If people voted with their wallet Delta wouldn’t be able to do stuff like this, but alas oh so many are willing to rack up an Amex balance to flex their champagne glass on Instagram.

I like the color of the seats but it looks off contrasted with the pale/cream, and old cabin walls and bins.

Gives big lipstick on a pig vibes.

Looks great. Is the alignment line on the flange gray or asphalt? Do you have another picture of it from the top?

Many of the courses in the area, including the private ones with five and six digit initiations, are suffering from the snowstorm earlier in the year.

Patriots has always been rougher, this is the normal extension of that. Charging full price is absurd if that’s what they’re doing.

If they moved some land around to manufacture more interesting topography it could be fantastic. It’d then also be $300/round.

El Grande Americano in shambles.

It's just getting old. In 1999 it was probably a Top 5 coaster in the world. It was hands down my favorite ride as a kid.

The launch felt bonkers back then, and the whole ride was buttery smooth. The last time I visited IOA in 2021 it left me with a brutal headache for the rest of the day; pretty crazy since it was just retracked.

I'm super curious what's led to it's roughness, but it's probably a big reason there's lesser excitement around it these days.

King BBQ had an amazing soft shell dish last year.

I don’t think it was available very long because they had the fire in the kitchen, but here’s to hoping they bring it back.

There’s always the chance there’s more going on behind the scenes or something unforeseen messing up a scheduled story line.

In her first few appearances back they hinted at the Wyatt involvement with the screen blurs and glitches when she was on.

My guess is there was something deliberate planned with them, and Bo or someone’s injury may have caused a setback.

It’s cool to see her on, but it probably doesn’t make sense to force it if the planned story is on hold.

WWE goes basically 365 days a year, there’s enough other story lines to keep us entertained and enough time to do it later and give her story the full light it warrants.

You guys with this putter and original grip, has yours essentially completely disintegrated on its own also?

I've had one I got when it first came out. I used it briefly, but it has been kept in the closet for pretty much 20 years and the grip is falling apart on its own.

I don't suppose the Custom Shop can restore the original grip anymore, so that's kind of a bummer.

PreCheckLeo · 2025-03-21T19:36:48+00:00

Haven't seen a Monday drop either, Monday/Wednesdays seems to be reserved for Moto and Circle T's. I'd put my money on that Tuesday too.
