41 years ago, this incredibly wise young man went to go see “Back to the Future” with his date and tried to warn us about what was coming… I really hope life treated him well. I also wish we had listened to him! 😱🤦‍♂️🤮🥲

Kudos to Kevin Kisner getting the REAL issue when it comes to the modern golf ball… While discussing the ball Ray Floyd used to win the 1986 U.S. Open at Shinnecock, he correctly references SPIN more than SPEED. Yes, the modern ball flys WAY farther, but the easiest fix would be to mandate more spin on the ball. The worst part of the ball traveling insane distances is that, because of no real spin, the mishits do not go off line NEARLY as much as they used to. If the spin returned, hitting a 350 yard drive would carry with it the HUGE risk of a mishit heading for deep trouble, even bringing many out of bounds back into play. As a result, not only would hitting a driver create far more drama than it currently does, it would cause most players to self regulate by hitting 3-woods and irons off the tee to keep the ball in play. This would effectively solve the distance problem because it would cause significantly longer shots to be played into the greens. Please, USGA PGA of America PGA of AmericaTOUR The Masters The R&A THIS is the path!

In honor of Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza winning the Heisman Trophy, here he is less than 13 months ago emotionally celebrating having beaten his then arch rival Stanford… While he was at Cal… Before immediately transferring to Indiana… 🤦‍♂️

The TOTAL failure of Spencer Pratt’s campaign should FOREVER discredit X opinion as a local politics barometer in blue USA. It should also humiliate lots of MAGA influencers who were exposed as morons. Even semicredible accounts like California Post & Hot Mics with Billy Bush shit the bed!

Why I’m not very impressed with the ability of AI to “think”… On the 40th anniversary of Jack Nicklaus winning the 1986 Masters, I asked @Grok Imagine to take the iconic image of Jack making the putt on the 17th hole, and turn it into a video. It was very clearly clueless… 🤷‍♂️

It feels like Taylor Swift decided to go to the Knicks game tonight just so she could see if her “dick” was big enough to somehow score four impossible court-side seats for her and her friends from a team/city she has no real connection to… And it was.

Maybe he had no choice, but how the hell does Aaron Rodgers, who knew that masks, the vaccines, and Fauci were all frauds, not understand that the “guardian cap” is so completely useless that its creators have to have had no understanding of how concussions actually happen… 😂🤦‍♂️

There’s been a lot of joy over the Norway fans & their “row” cheer, but not nearly enough talk about how that’s possible. When you have a homogeneous population not yet destroyed by immigration you can maintain your national pride/culture. Most USA schools would not allow this…

For years I’ve been warning football fans that soon the sport will be unrecognizable to what it was in the 1900s & effectively become some sort of flag/soft tackle hybrid. The most underrated facilitator of this is the total loss of institutional memory at the lower levels… 😱🤮

Like a vulture picking apart a carcass, ESPN (all while Kirk Herbstreit pretends to love the traditions of this game) continues to systematically dismantle everything special about the Rose Bowl. Yesterday’s earlier start time not only killed the iconic 4th-quarter sunset, but had the team’s floats emptied before the parade was close to over.🥲🤮

There is an emerging epidemic that I believe will lead to the end of small school high school football, at least as we know it. This year, it appears lots of teams are having their seasons canceled by the subjective decision of almost always liberal female administrators. This is happening for several reasons… -Demographic drop off due to birth rates falling in 2008 -Fewer kids being willing to make a huge commitment for a team that is unlikely to win any sort of championship (and it has never been easier for a good player to transfer away from a school whose program isn’t expected to be great) -Parents being more afraid to let their kids play tackle football, and flag now being a viable competitive option -Liberal academics realizing that they can, under the guise of “safety,” kill off football, which they hate, as soon as a squad goes below 22 varsity players (which is absurd, especially when in almost all of these cases the kids and coaches wanted to still play) Once a season is canceled, a program is doomed because you can never again get kids in the future to make the huge commitment needed when they aren’t even confident that the administration won’t pull the plug on them in an act of safety virtue-signaling. This is also incredibly unfair to the opponents of the schools that end their season before it starts, because now those kids only get to play, if they are lucky, nine games. America is in the process of losing something unique, special, and important to our culture, especially in smaller towns. 😡🤮🥲
