Before They Are Hanged Question- Spoilers
Posted by DestrehanTiger on 4/25/24 at 3:55 pm
I am 25% through the book. I would have assumed by now that I would understand the overall dilemma or connection of the characters 5/12 of the way through a trilogy. Somehow, I am still entertained, but I have no idea what Logan, Jezal, Ferro, Bayaz, and company are doing. I just know they are headi...

re: Bryan Bros Update - Corales Puntacana Championship
Posted by DestrehanTiger on 4/23/24 at 10:19 am
I think there is a balance to be had here, but, to play devil's advocate, why should the PGA Tour allow golfers to profit off of an event that the tour pays all of the costs? Hopefully, the tour is weighing the benefits of individual golfers building their brands to aid in television viewership vs t...

Horschel finished 90th in the FedEx last year. He didn't qualify for the signature event and wasn't selected as a sponsor's exemption....

It's better than what they have had for the past 25 years, but the Orange Crush jerseys look better than all of them. ...

[quote]It also blows my mind how people can watch seasons of this show and then get to the island and still act so arrogantly. Venus, Tevin, Q … how have you not watched people in the past act so confidently only to realize they were the fools in the end.[/quote]

re: 25 years ago today Mike Ditka traded our entire draft for Ricky Williams
Posted by DestrehanTiger on 4/18/24 at 9:27 am
I will never forget riding in the car with my dad listening to 870 during the draft. I can still hear Jim Henderson yelling "That seals the deal! That seals the deal!".
ETA: My dad just informed me that it might not have been Jim Henderson. Might have been either Buddy D or Mike Detillier....

The reaction my wife and I had to seeing Chili's sister pregnant is the ultimate indication of the greatness of the show. She was in an 8 minute episode and hardly ever mentioned in other episodes as far as I remember. Yet, we both yelled "Chili's sister is pregnant!", when we saw her.
The Sign ...

[quote]I also liked how it was a chore to get around BOTW for the first half of the game. Made you really explore the world and thus get killed in the process.

I think this is a good criticism of TOTK. If TOTK was the only game, it would be incredible how there are 3 levels to explore. ...

[quote]I don't necessarily think that's an unpopular opinion Tears of the Kingdom is a bigger/better version of BotW.[/quote]
That's how I felt. Yeah, the first few hours in BOTW were probably better just experiencing how vast the game is, but Tears is essentially a huge DLC for BOTW. I also felt...
re: Golf Clothes
Posted by DestrehanTiger on 4/1/24 at 3:07 pm
Flag & Anthem has some nice 8" golf shorts. 10 is way too long, but I also felt like 7 was a bit too short for my taste. I've found that they are a great middle ground. They typically have some sort of deal every month or so. So, I would wait to buy anything that is full price....

[quote] I kept thinking they were wasting valuable time when they could tell me about players that matter instead of this irritating guy's story. I'm sure Bhanu was intersting in conversation, but not relevant on Survivor.[/quote]

[quote]Did you ever play the 6/6/6 Ryder Cup game?[/quote]
I did. I forgot to come back and report on it. It went great. We really enjoyed the game. I feel like the game needs a name so it's easier to identify. I called it Ryder Cup in my spreadsheet due to it involving different formats, but I a...

[quote]He reminds me of Gollum from LOTR. He definitely had a dark side the editors chose to minimize.[/quote]
This is a great analogy. The way he talks to himself and shifts opinions in an instant is just like Gollum. I think if he stayed longer, there was a possibility that he was going to murd...

[quote] I didn't think much of that episode[/quote]
I disagree. I thought the last few episodes, including this one, are examples of why I love this show. Even when they telegraph the joke, it almost makes the joke better.
My only gripe, and it really does not matter in the scheme of things, ...

I'm happy AK had a good round, but this line made me chuckle. If he could just figure out 80% of the game, he'd compete. ...
