Course closed Monday

Due to more than 9 inches of rainfall in the last 72 hours, TPC Sawgrass will be closed to the public Monday, May 6.

Looking forward to spending a few days at TPC with some golf as well at the World Golf Hall of Fame.

TW has got to be odds on fav, right?

Course will play soft, slow -

Will spend Tues watching practice round (if open), otherwise will go find a course via Golfnow.  Wednesday will play King and Bear at WGV (purchased a deal through Golf Now Deal Caddy). Twosome will pay about $40/ea rather than their current rates which I see are over $100.  Then Thursday at TPC again.  Weather is supposed to be in the high 70s, low 80s. Unheard of weather for May here in FLA, really.

Can imagine TPC is sopping wet - built in lowland swampland.  Better bring mosquito repellant, too.

Looking forward to watching this. Sadly I'll be driving through Kansas or Missouri when Sunday's round finishes. Makes me want to buy satellite radio just so I can listen to it. I grabbed Tiger, Adam Scott, Luke Donald, and Jim Furyk for my fantasy picks. Figured the accuracy of Furyk and Donald would be key (although hearing your weather report makes me worry about Donald's distance) and Tiger and Scott are just playing great golf.

I used Google Earth to look at the 17th hole last night.  It is even more intimidating from the satellite view.   Does that tree ever come into play?

No, the tee box is well left of where the tree is. Unless there's some sort of gale-force wind, that would be a properly awful shot to hit it. Wait, is Nick Watney playing?

Wouldn't it be great to have a little blast from the past.
Tiger and Phil walking up the 18th fairway on Sunday afternoon tied for the lead...probably just wishful thinking.

Wait a minute. Could we throw Fred Couples in there too?

Horschel winning a playoff against Phil and especially Tiger. You will get crazy odds on that

    • Wordle 1,013 4/6* ⬛🟦🟦⬛⬛ ⬛🟦⬛🟦🟦 🟧⬛🟧🟧🟧 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 par is good after a double bogey yesterday.
    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
