Fun major. Never once thought Xander would win it until he sunk the birdie putt on 18. Hats off to Bryson, who played like a champion today. The course was a little underwhelming, but the golf was exciting. ...

re: LIV Golf Adelaide

Fun tournament to watch, and the team playoff at the end had a “proof of concept” feel to it. LIV has to be pleased with how it all turned out. I am not 100% convinced that the crowd understood what was happening in the final four shots, though. ...
[quote]It’s got too much attention already to not run it. And that’s what they want more than anything-attention. Probably just last minute editing making sure Mulkey won’t sue them into oblivion[/quote] My wild arse guess is that this story is probably not spiked but some legal at the Post has de...
[quote]I’ll never understand American golf fans openly rooting for LIV and the demise of the PGA Tour.[/quote] I don't know where this international golf fiasco is headed, but I think I speak for all of us when I wish for the Rangegoats to stay united through the turmoil. Also, who exactly is L...
[quote]Things will change. They always do. If liv continues to produce good golf, the majors will want to showcase it in their fields. Simple as that.[/quote] Maybe. To the casual US-based sports fan (living in golf's most lucrative global market), LIV golfers have fallen off the end of t...

re: LIV golf is unwatchable to me

[quote]Yeah that’s why he seemed so upset after finishing with back to back bogeys. Clearly the individual competition was important to him. Is he faking all of this too?[/quote] Maybe you missed the “50% up front” part of that LIV contract. He’s already been paid to look like he cares. That’s ...

I don’t mind LIV. It’s an interesting test kitchen for ideas. What I dislike is the fake rah-rah crap from several of these top name guys who are clearly there to cash a very large check. Rahm looked like a tool spraying champagne for the “team win” which he has made quite clear he hates. He ins...
Coach Mulkey seems pretty calculated in everything she says into a microphone, much like Saban. So these comments from her about the grind may likely serve some specific purpose related to this team and this season. On the other hand, she has demonstrated a pattern that she is unafraid to move o...
[quote]So who we got for the LSU All Pro Prison Team? Jamarcus Russell at QB Cecil Collins at RB Kayshon Boutte at WR[/quote] Are we going to talk about how The Rant casually threw JaMarcus in the clink and just moved on? ...
[quote]Either Tanner Boyle or Timmy Lupus. Not sure who Walter Matthau will put in.[/quote] Word is Kelly Leak wants to play short. All that wind in center keeps blowing out his Marlboros. ...
As the contract extension news breaks today and through the weekend, you will see their fans slowly start to accept that Tommy Rees is going to coach them next year. But not before a last-minute burst of misguided hope that Lane Kiffin is their only hope. I need some popcorn. ...
As someone who lived in Alabama through the post-Bryant years: Her thoughts are not new. That’s exactly how Ray Perkins got hired. They wanted some stability, keep the lights on and win a few games until they could figure out a plan. That patience lasted about 3 months. Within a year there wer...
Vegas loves Nick Saban. He’s good for business. Bama will be in the playoff. ...

If he likes stouts such as Guinness, Jameson makes a Caskmates edition Irish whiskey that is finished in stout barrels. A bottle runs 30ish bucks and is widely available at most liquor stores and Da Rouse. ...

They played it. Right before the Greg Brooks tribute video and the senior celebration. ...
I guess we will never know what kept #40 off the field for several games, but that kid is a capital-P Problem for offenses when he’s out there. His ability to spy/pursue sideline to sideline and make plays is noticeable inside the stadium. Only other things that stood out to me live were the cor...
