Yes exactly, I think Lebron, Michael Jordan, etc would look a little stiff on the soccer field. They’re unbelievably coordinated for the size they are but I’m not sure they would look that way on a premier league soccer field. They play a sport that rewards explosiveness and straight line strength as much or more than shiftiness and agility

Kids who get great at soccer in the country are affluent subburb/private school kids. Those kids don’t have the grit of the inner city euro guys

Does Randy Moss count? He went to Marshall because FSU rescinded their offer due to a parole violation

I haven’t read this whole thread, so I’m sorry if I’m giving advice it’s already been given. This is coming from the side of your kid because I’m a younger parent.

Come over and offer to help with stuff like babysit, bringing food, even just taking the grandkid to McDonald’s for an hour and giving the parents a break. Host dinners at your house, but make sure you planet a week or two ahead so it’s not surprising them, and don’t drop a guilt trip on them if they can’t come because of some unforeseen reason, life happens.

Biggest thing don’t keep score with the other grandparents, that is a bad situation for everyone and there’s nothing positive that will come from it.

Your kid and grandkid love you, none of it is personal. Remember when you were in that stage of life, your wife, and your kid are what matters and what you based your decisions on, everything else is secondary, including the feelings of the grandparents

I know this is an extreme generalization but I personally hate practicing on mats because it makes me feel like I’m dialed when in reality my ball striking could be completely off. A mat basically eliminates the possibility of a chunk and also guarantees a perfect lie. For a large percentage of amateurs learning how to strike the ball properly is likely more important than swing mechanics, fat and thin shots kill a score faster than left and right well struck shots IMO.

Anyway, better players can benefit plenty from hitting off mats and working on swing mechanics and distance/trajectory control, but my theory is a lot of people learning the swing and practicing primarily on mats are actually making themselves worse at golf.

Different sport, but I read this whole thing about how everyone in the NBA basically sleeps with the same 20 women. The reason being they are the 20 women willing to sign NDA’s and trusted not to talk to media or anybody else. And if any of them ever do give up secrets, they are blacklisted

This thing looks atrocious.

I will say the tailgate scene around Neyland stadium is severely lacking compared to most other SEC schools based on the 2 times I’ve been there. Lots of sitting in parking lots and not much else to do. The real tailgating seems to take place on the river, I’ll have to do that next time.

Yea I’ll probably go see it first and make a decision. I don’t think it’ll be too scary, he knows the stories and has watched some pretty scary myth videos and it hasn’t scared him. He’s pretty into it

Weird I don’t have that issue he’s tweeted a bunch about it

Claims he just started playing golf in May and now shoots low 70’s and has an index of +1.2

I don’t have any way to confirm his story but also can’t prove he’s lying so I dk what to think

I’m not surprised at all that Phil is a scumbag and a degenerate. I mean, he was honestly viewed that way by most people until the wife cancer stuff redeemed his image.

That being said, I’m not gonna act appalled that a pro athlete travels around the world and cheats on his wife. Honestly, in those circles, the loyal ones are probably the outliers. I would assume most of those guys wives just learn to live with it or accept that it comes with the lifestyle they provide.
