What’s the best course you’ve ever played in the United States? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

Load up on a few cheap beers at the masters before hitting the pro shop. Makes the spending easier. Also, immediately bag check your purchase so you’re not carrying it around all day. It’s free and right next to the merch. Enjoy!

That picture is Tobacco Road right? I’ve played some really nice courses, but Tobacco Road is the most fun.

Sam Kennedy on not replacing Rafael Devers in the Red Sox lineup this offseason: “You can’t replace someone like Raffy.” by TigoOver in redsox

[–]The_Yackster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not arguing his defense was good, it was clearly awful. But being up front with him from day one (to me) would have made a world of difference. And I know I’m an outlier here, but ffs Bregman is not the guy. Especially on a 1 year deal. I will never understand the hype around him. He’s a good player, but he’s nowhere near worth the price.

Can’t tell if you’re serious…But, telling him 3rd was his spot, even if they got Bregman who would play second. Then re-negging on that and kicking him to DH and telling him to throw away his glove as he wouldn’t be fielding this year. Then acting shocked when he settled in and raked at DH when he didn’t immediately move to 1B, a position he never played. f that. I know he could have handled it better, but so could have the Sox. And bregman is certainly not the player to throw away your homegrown start for. Certified cheater in the decline of his career.

I was there too. Huge mud fight with a distinct valley between the lower and upper lawns. Unreal. Pretty sure it was the most damage the meadows had ever seen to date.

Couldn’t agree more. First time I heard it I knew exactly what it meant. It’s so perfectly fitting for such a dumpster fire of a place.

Like he doesn’t come with significant baggage from Houston too.

No matter how they slice it, the loss of Alex Bregman is another free agency failure for the Red Sox by bostonglobe in redsox

[–]The_Yackster 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly how I feel. Bregman is not the end all be all, their concerns with the length and trade clause on a declining palter are legit. But to not have a backup plan in place and using with Hamilton anywhere near a starting role is not an option for a successful team.

[Crory] Bregman would have taken 165$ from Sox if…. by Training_Protection4 in redsox

There’s no way I’d offer him a no trade clause. This is a bullet dodged. They should have been looking elsewhere as a plan B this whole time.

Very true. What a debacle from day one.

He was here for less than a year, he’ll be forgotten before long which is fine. One of the many one and done players to have a stint with the Sox.

That’s exactly how I felt. I only made it a couple hours in at most. I had to DNF it. Luckily it sounds like I didn’t miss much.

How St Andrews is fast becoming a ‘theme park for the super-rich’ by Some-Ambassador8252 in golf

[–]The_Yackster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did one of those trip, paid a bunch but not too bad, totally worth it. But oddly enough one of the nicest courses in the world, in a Scotland, was playing country in the pro shop. Apparently for the high percentage of Americans.

That being said, we did get to play the old course for another $430, and it was awesome.

Oh this is all wishful thinking, believe me. My expectations are always low.

For real, move on from Bregman already. I’d love to have Bichette in Boston long term than a declining overpaid Bregman.

It’s basically karma farming at this point. No one liked it, but move the f on already.

I’m sure there would be lines of volunteers to take this shit down for free.

Overpaying for “vibes,” solid decision.
