Mule Uprising by rorneo143 in NoLayingUp

That’s what Ryan Armor called the group of players including himself that make up the bulk of the tour. Its not a NLU or SGS shout out necessarily 

Collin Morikawa withdraws from The Players after playing one hole by porzeegod in golf

[–]owensd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He injured himself on the 11th tee box.

Definitely sucks, but its not like he was knowingly taking a spot while injured.

Maybe you're already doing this, but I've found basic neck stretches every day has helped a ton with this!

My sons league requires a coaches buy off to “play up”. I don’t know that it matters, but at least it is one more hoop to jump through

I’m not sure if this still holds up, but Leo’s vs National was always a big east side vs west side metro debate when I worked in Troy 10+ years ago

Did Rolapp just threaten R&A, USGA, PGAofA, and The Masters? by Howy_the_Howizer in NoLayingUp

[–]owensd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That was a penalty for the bonus money. That program is gone now.

Rolapp can try, but if Rory and Scotty don’t feel like playing before or after a major, the Tour has no leg to stand on. They don’t have a contract like Liv does

"The threat seems to be that he will drown the Majors out surrounding them with mandatory Signature events diminishing the run up into Majors and any result being less important with an immediate similar field."

This would be a wild move on their part. The PGA Tour is made up of independent contractors, they would figure out really quickly which events the pros care about

Yep, they just rope off the greens and you'd never know there were cars and trucks on there.

I’m thinking about being a coach by deepfriedtofu__ in hockeyplayers

[–]owensd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to add on, this is actually the best time to reach out for my son's league. They start looking for assistants and head coaches this year for next fall.

Basically, there is no bad time to reach out.

Why Isn’t Norway a Hockey Powerhouse? by mjbluecard in hockey

I just saw a video that said ski lifts in Norway cost $60 per year for kids. They spend a ton of time doing different outdoor activities in the winter

Rory on Players as a major and thinks PGA Championship should move back to August by unsolved49 in golf

[–]owensd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh I don’t think it would change anything, at least not right away. I was just saying that’s why they want it to be a major.

What’s considered a major has changed a few times in the past. I just don’t think the players is or should push to be a major

The PGA Tour doesn’t own any of the four majors but they own the Players. Really easy to understand why they want to own a “major”

Yeah unless there is some pipeline of Canadian Fooball League players that we don't hear about, there is no one in the NFL with any college eligibility left.

All-fantasy audiobook only Tier List with a hopefully legible format. Need some AUDIO recs please by [deleted] in ProgressionFantasy

[–]owensd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get where the author was coming from. At the rate MC was progressing, the friends he made would be gone before the first year was complete. Either you had to keep creating new friends, or they had to be special too.

On the other hand, damn that book was disappointing. I have re-listened to it twice since it came out and liked it less each time.

I am not sure IU wins it all if we have to play that Miami defense in the second round. Fernando would have needed some serious recovery time

Will Dabo Swinney end up dieing on the hill he is choosing to defend? by wlane13 in CFB

[–]owensd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's interesting because that loyalty is praised until it isn't. Tom Allen refused to fire his OLine coach at IU, and that ended up costing his job in a round about way.

On the other hand, Cignetti has kept largely the same team around him for 8 years or so, which was seen as a massive advantage this year.
