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!

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.

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… 🤷‍♂️

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.🥲🤮

I showed my 14 year old daughter this amazing chart illustrating the progression of best-selling musical artists during the 1970s and 80s, so that she would get some sense of how insane Michael Jackson’s run during the 1980s was. And now in 2026 he’s back near the top again…😱

I’m not defending Tiger Woods, his accident was clearly his fault & he deserves to be held accountable, but based on this version of the body cam footage of his arrest, it sure seems like a non celebrity might’ve not been charged with a DUI. He seems not as out of it as expected.

Tiger Woods, Vanessa Trump, & Kai Trump, yesterday at Riviera CC… It sure seems like Tiger & Vanessa (who has the most remarkable dating history of any current celebrity) are in love. As a “member” of the Trump family, Tiger has a great shot at being on the GOP ticket in 2036.

So, apparently during the 2024 campaign, Kamala Harris did an interview with the liberal podcast SubwayTakes with Kareem Rahma that was SO bad that they decided not to even release it because the host didn’t want to get blamed for her losing… 🤔😱

It should be noted that, in a remarkably short amount of time, college football has gone from the epic Tim Tebow “promise” speech (which could never happen today with NIL & instant transfer), to a QB quitting on their team while they’re still bowl eligible. Nice job, everyone!🥲

That sound you just heard was Bobby Jones rolling over in his grave… On live ESPN telecast of the Masters Par 3 contest, Hoatong Li just dropped an F-bomb while taking a photo with Kevin Hart. I love the Par 3 contest, but things are getting a bit out of hand for The Masters
