City lost to Brighton - - - -BRIGHTON! in the Carling Cup yesterday. Well at least that doesn't affect the league standings. It's gonna take a while for the team to come together (that 6-0 shellacking last weekend is not how they are going to play all the time, it just happened to come together for them) with all the new players, new management, and the January transfers that will be coming in. I still think top 6 is still an attainable goal for them this year. But it won't be easy for all the new players to get on the same page in just part of one season.
My Equipment:
Northwestern 3-, 5-, 7- and 9-wood;
Goldwin AVDP Irons (5-10 plus PW);
U.S. Golf 60 degree wedge;
See-More Putter; Bushnell Yardage Pro 1000 Rangefinder;Golflogix GPS.

Well City lost to Wigan 2-1. Thanks to a super dive by a Wigan player which led to a penalty kick. City didn't play well enough to win anyway but it might have been different if that Wigan player had been red carded for diving in the penalty area. Oh well, win a few, lose a few, it's still a long season.

My wife (the Mancunian) said they should review any time there is a penalty kick and that would eliminate the diving/acting. And she hates instant replay but she has seen too many games in many competitions decided by an acting job.

But that is a better loss (if there's such a thing

) than Aresenal's loss to Hull City, a promoted team from the second division, that moved the Chelsea up to first. My squad is looking good

Here's what I play:

City is in the last 16 of the UEFA cup competion.
Won't it be great if City beat United in the UEFA Super cup (ala FC Zenit) this fall i.e. if United gets to the final.

Manchester United is going to be dethroned by liverpool! i believE!!!! go gerrard!

I'll say to you the same as what I said to the last liver

scum pool fan who said something of this sort to me: "after United's sudden 2-game absolutely catastrophic disaster-like truly heart-breaking fall from grace (Oh my god! 2 games!!!! EEEEEK!!! WORRYING STUFF!!! DON'T THINK I CAN COPE!!!) and Liverpool's absolute legendary amazing truly monumental Rafa-tactical-genius inspired lengthy record breaking errr...2 league-game winning streak, I would quite happily bet 10 years salary on the fact that 99% of Liverpool fans suffer from premature ejaculation. " (Inended as tongue-in-cheek; don't get all butthurt on me)

      Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow.

      Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills.

      That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness.

      Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
