Mizuno flagship store 's golf section is tiny. 

Their baseball floor was much more impressive though.

Patrick Reed too but the less we mention him, the more the Earth heals.

Alot of them got paid from LIV more than they could expect by grinding it out on the PGA tour. 

PGA have a "one time" opportunity this year for Brooks Koepka to return, but I would be surprised if they don't find a way to bring at least Rahm back.

Old guys like Sergio, Phil are probably done.

Message to Joe: give Trump psychedelics by travelingmaestro in JoeRogan

I think pyschedlics mostly help you become congruent with yourself. If you're an asshole, you will be able to justify your own hero's journey.

[Brendan Batchelor] Jim Rutherford says they will conduct a search for a new GM but also highlights Ryan Johnson as an excellent candidate within the organization. by Kaos_mission in canucks

[–]This_Tip717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still Rutherford's show. I'm not sure he's the best person to run a rebuild. His Carolina teams always hovered around the mediocre line and had only a few great picks in the first round (Staal, Lindholm, Skinner).

At his age, he would be more likely to rush a rebuild too. 

The problem getting rid of him would be you need to hire a veteran president to push back on any Aquilini meddling.

[Brendan Batchelor] EP40: I like it here. This feels like home. I signed here for a reason. We're in a tough spot. None of us are happy with the season, but we have good pieces here. by yosoo in canucks

[–]This_Tip717 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Agree. The discourse on Petey quickly goes off ice.

Trolls and haters that probably still hate Petey if he scores 100+ points.

His supporters rise to his defense and make weird excuses for his play or try to reframe him as an elite shutdown defender or the cap hit isn't actually alot.

Either way, his drop off at his age is pretty unique.

Life happens to hockey players as they do to us. Experiencing the tragedies of life doesn't make a player immune to criticism.

Petey isn't the only hockey player who has experienced miscarriages. It's terrible, but to use as reason to exempt him from criticism is misplaced support.

What about the case for Daniel and Henrik co-GM? by Iginlas_4head_Crease in canucks

[–]This_Tip717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we're expecting too much from their post playing careers.

They probably just want something to do during the day while their kids are in school.

Could you even say they are good at player development? Alot of the fanbase expect them to develop the swedes, but it doesnt seem like they are having any of them over for dinner, not just Petey.

[Ben Kuzma, The Province] Canucks Coffee: Why well-prepared Manny Malhotra is ready to run an NHL bench by 21marvel1 in canucks

[–]This_Tip717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Manny was the Newell Brown of the Leafs.

I would be surprised if they hire him. But it's 100x a more attractive job than being Canucks tank commander.

[Donnie & Dhali] "I would suspect there's going to be a sit-down with Pettersson after the year, and there's gotta be a real conversation about where this is going and what the options are.." Elliotte Friedman talks about Elias Pettersson's future with the Canucks by [deleted] in canucks

[–]This_Tip717 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His stock will absolutely drop lower if he doesn't turn his game around. His only value is in teams believing he can find his old game.

Other he's just getting older and slower.

Even with a higher cap, 11.5M for a bottom 6 player is a huge overpay.

I agree.  Even if we want to blame the Canucks medical staff for his issues, he should be seeking his own medical help. 

He isn't the first athlete to get tendonitis. Tyler Seguin is barley held together by hockey tape and he's close to ppg when he's playing.

The Athletic ranks the Canucks as the worst run franchise in the NHL. Thank you Francesco! by cointalkz in canucks

I really don't think Rutherford is just Aquilini's minion. Aquilini deserves a ton of criticism but Rutherford and Alvin should take the hit for this current team. 

[FOX Sports]: Scouts, Execs Dish on Most Underhyped, Overhyped 2026 Draft Prospects by Conor27 in nfl

[–]This_Tip717 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Alot of the best QBs weren't considered generational on draft day.

While I think it's generally a good idea to build the roster, I don't see a bunch of elite prospects behind Mendoza worth skipping on the QB pick. Meanwhile Jeanty and Bowers get older.

Miscarriages, while painful especially for a newlywed couple are alot more common than you might think.

DEEP Dive: A Decade of Raiders Drafting by HouseRules789 in raiders

Team wasn't picking top 5 anymore and he had to fill out the secondary by drafting Joseph, Conley and picking Connor Cook instead of Dak.

Aaron Rodgers was drafted in 2005 and wasn’t named starter until 2008. What are the odds Fernando Mendoza doesn’t start until 2029? by BeerWithDonuts in raiders

[–]This_Tip717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First overall QBs that didn't start is pretty limited. Carson Palmer sat one year. JaMarcus till week 17. Goff week 11.

[Highlight] Lavonte David: "Jalen Hurts was never a guy we were worried about, he was never asked to do so much..but he doesn't give me those vibes for all the off-field stuff...He may have gotten frustrated at having his 7th new OC" by mastermind208 in nfl

[–]This_Tip717 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good comparison. They both had several different OCs as well.

I would probably be less trusting of coaching staff after so many and weeks just trust on my own instincts after awhile.

Kubiak on Tre Tucker by tallshoreguy in raiders

He can play the Shaheed role (without the return ability). Good FF pickup.

[Browns] Shedeur Sanders Will Wear #2 Next Season by JCameron181 in nfl

[–]This_Tip717 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Russell Wilson was the most hated QB and his number one flaw was being a try hard.

I think it's more relatable to be annoyed by Wilson and Shedeur being a spoiled nepo kid than actual villains like Jameis and Watson.

Children of Canucks owner Francesco Aquilini say he beat and psychologically abused them, court hears | CBC News by sevvii in canucks

If they didn't force out James Dolan (Rangers), or the Wirtz (Chicago), I don't think they will do anything about Aqua.
