How many hours per year do they work


Way more than most people realize. They may be at the school 8 hours a day but with lesson planning, grading test/assignments, and after school events it adds up. Now they have development days several days in the summer. Just dealing with the kids and shitty parents alone they deserve hazard pay.
Have marshaled at the Zurich for a good while. The amount of obnoxious “fans” has increased tremendously since Covid. The ones following Rory in 25 were awful. Thankfully this year it was much better. Ignorance and alcohol are a bad combo.
There are no good candidates in that race, at least with Cassidy we know what we are getting.

Hometown makes it look so cute and quaint....then you drive through there and find out it's nothing like the show. Similar to Waco, Chip and Jo never show you the bad areas. Like someone posted, damn near every town has that one area you must avoid.

Funny thing is I work with someone who actually believes what the OP posted.
Ruffles was a tour player before, not just some random you tuber.
Have always had labs. All have been great dogs but the big chocolate boy I have now is something else. He's very laid back, listens well, and only wants to please us. He's almost 100 lbs, very tall and long but he's just a big baby. Was always told don't get a chocolate but our last two labs were both chocolate males and were excellent dogs.
Titleist Tour Soft AIM, I'm old and need a softer ball.

Oh well, at least Hahnville’s girls won the championship today.
Cancelled shows at UTEP, Baylor, LSU, Ole Miss, and a few others. Most likely low ticket sales but rehab wouldn’t surprise me either.

Shiels video, he showed the price in pounds which converted to US dollars was around 475.
Rick Shiels had a video up last night where he tested out the McLaren Irons. Actually they performed very well but at $487 per iron, selling them to the general public might be a stretch.

Do some research Livtard. It's been here for a long time.

Key Historical Highlights:
Evolution of Names: Started as the Crescent City Open (1938) and the New Orleans Open, before becoming the Greater New Orleans Open Invitational in 1958.
Venue Changes: Originally played at City Park Golf Courses (1938-1962), it moved to Lakewood Country Club (1963-1988), then to English Turn Golf & Country Club (1989-2004) before settling at TPC Louisiana in 2005.
The Team Format: In 2017, the tournament changed to its current two-man team format, featuring alternating rounds of foursomes and four-ball.
Hurricane Resilience: Despite Hurricane Katrina (2005) and subsequent storms (Gustav, Isaac, Ida) damaging the area, the tournament has continued, briefly returning to English Turn in 2006 before returning to TPC Louisiana, helping rebuild the region's tourism.
Recent Winners: The 2026 winners were Matt and Alex Fitzpatrick, finishing at a record 31-under 257.

Anyone ever play Fashion in Hahnville?


Live about half a mile from it, used to play it on the way home from work. In the 80's and early 90's the owner then kept the greens in good condition....the fairways were hardpan.

Closed a few years back, developer is building a subdivision on the property now.

Was that the course by the belle chase tunnel and industrial canal?


Yes. 27 holes, pretty decent burgers, and cold beer.
