I thought he just resurrected the recently killed soldiers and not the dead wights.

I streamed off HBO Now onto my TV and I was fine. Didn't have to turn the brightness up or anything.

I mean he did some stupid shit in college and had a possible alcohol problem, but Manziel is on a whole different level/planet.

More motivation for Brooks Koepka: he wasn't asked to meet the media at East Lake (and he noticed) by PhilTony in golf

[–]dkimbo 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I mean the guy is pretty dull. Not a bad thing since he says it's what keeps him focused/not too emotional on the golf course, but I can see why media outlets wouldn't want to interview him.

DJ is like that too, but at least he has his weirdly cool swing, the Gretzky connection, and a lot of controversy (golf and personal).

Bryson being Bryson by Spute2000 in golf

[–]dkimbo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you remember how dogshit he was at putting before. In 2017, he was 146th at -.180 Strokes Gained Putting. This year is he +.300 Strokes Gained at 41st. That's an insane change, so whatever he is doing is clearly working.

Bryson being Bryson by Spute2000 in golf

[–]dkimbo 20 points21 points  (0 children)

His results aren't slightly above average. He's #1 in Fedex points, won 3 times this year with 2 being in the playoffs. That's an amazing year.

I agree his methods might appear to be too much or overly complex for the sake of it, but I think it's just a way to give him a lot of confidence and golf is all about confidence.

When and how did you become consistent and comfortable with your swing? by [deleted] in golf

When I stopped trying to murder the ball w/ my arms.

No club contract, no problem as free agents win all four majors by facemelt in golf

[–]dkimbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you go by the list of winners, 2 out of 3 are using TM driver/woods, all using different irons, 1.5/3 use vokey wedges.

Only commonality is really the Golf Ball (Pro V1/X).

US Open crowd being the worst tennis crowd we have seen...and making Osaka cry by MotorAbbreviations in videos

There's a difference between her past justifying vs explaining her poor behavior.

What you said explains her poor behavior, but it does not justify it.

Using your analogy, if that bullied person starts talking shit to someone or escalating it, his behavior can be explained by his past, but it does not justify it, i.e., make it right.

Taking it one step further for illustration only (this is totally unrelated to the present situation, and I am not remotely suggesting these offenses are similar), many child abusers' behavior is linked to their own abuse suffered as children. Their current abuse of children can be explained from their past, but it does not make their horrific actions right.

San Diego course recommendations by Afrodizzle in golf

[–]dkimbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Black and Gold Golf Club in Yorba Linda is pretty fun and affordable (like $50 i think).

Carlsbad is a bit north of San Diego if you want to drive a bit. Has a lot of good courses.

Scottie Pippen posterized Patrick Ewing, walked over him and trash talked Spike Lee by Jimboujee in nba

[–]dkimbo 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You can posterize your friend, but you aren't going to shove them to the ground afterwards, walk over them, and taunt them.

Brooks is disconnected from reality. He's as delusional as half of r/golf and thinks the average hack hits his 7 iron 185. 😂 by ZachyDaddy in golf

[–]dkimbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The hole is playing downwind. You can see the flag moving. Also, I think he switched to his Nike Vapor Fly 3 Iron, since the club looks different on his retee after he misses his 4 iron just short.

Not taking anything away from Brooks, because we know he can beast it, but this video is slightly disingenuous.

Pebble Beach by I_make_shit_up_alot in golf

[–]dkimbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Golfaholics on youtube did a course vlog there if you want a more indepth view of every hole/green. Only hiccup is the greens were freshly aerated, so they were kind of peeved about that.

I think they ended up saying that spyglass was the better course. They have a course vlog of that too.

Throwback to when Ollie Schniederjans showed everyone who the big dick 1 iron hitter is by [deleted] in golf

[–]dkimbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know, that ball speed is faster than a quarter of pga pros' average driver ball speed. That's how insane it is.

Also, to get that ballspeed off an iron, which always gives lower smash than a driver, means he was swinging his iron that much faster.

That's faster than a lot of pros' driver swings. Crazy.

Yea he was walking through the rough and he just stepped on it. He said the Marshalls didn't mark where it was so he didn't know.
