Ok guys the Super Bowl is only 6 days away and the game is on! Just thought I'd get some of your thoughts on the game. Who you will be cheering for? Should the Vikes be in instead of the Saints? Is Peyton over or under rated? How about Drew Brees? Has he finally got his chance? Let's hear it guys! Feel free to post anything about the big game here

Im glad the Viqueens arent in it. The last thing Favre deserves is a chance at another Super Bowl ring.
I will be rooting for the Saints. After everything the city of New Orleans has been through and what the Saints' fans have been through (remember they were the ones who used to wear paper bags on their heads), IMO they are due for a Super Bowl win.
Im tired of the Colts. Manning has had his fair share of chances and has done enough winning in his career. Im ready for someone new to win it.

Who you will be cheering for? Indianapolis Colts

Should the Vikes be in instead of the Saints? No. The Saints were the better team that day, they deserve to be right where they are.

Is Peyton over or under rated? Neither. He is what he's cracked up to be.

How about Drew Brees? Under. Being in a league with P. Manning, Brady, and Favre, he doesn't get as much credit as he deserves.

Has he [Drew Brees] finally got his chance? This is probably the best chance he'll ever have at winning a Super Bowl.

Career Bests:

9 Holes--37 @ The Fairways at Arrowhead-Front(+2)

18 Holes--80 @ Carroll Meadows Golf Course(+9)

 

Home Course:

1) The Fairways at Arrowhead

2) Mayfair Country Club

I like the atmosphere in here. Haha. I like the comments. All have valid points. I'm going to hold off on letting you guys know who I'm rooting for until the day of the game. Get some suspense built up. Ok, maybe the suspense will only be for me Lol. Most of you probably don't care what I think, but let's keep this thread goin'! I'm diggin' it!

Freeney is probably out I think that could be a BIG factor. Before that detail came out I saw Indy in a possible rout. Now not so much.

I will be in Vegas for the game so trying to figure out which way to go. With Freeney out might take the 5.5 and root for the Saints who I would like to see win.

You southerners must have it bad. A couple days without golf. Try making it three or four months.

Yeah, Haha, it's sucks here in Ky. I went 3 weeks ago just cause I couldn't wait any longer. Snow had just melted off and the course was a mess. Now there is about 10" of snow on the ground. Going to be a WHILE before I get to the links again.

Freeney is going to be a HUGE factor in this game. His absence, if he doesn't play will definately be a drop of chances for Indy.

I'm pulling for the Colts, but a part of me wants them to suffer for intentionally giving up a shot at a perfect season. I understand the logic they claim to have been using, but a) that's lame and b) they didn't even apply that logic properly so it's a serious cop-out. Still, they're "my" team so they better find a way to win, whether Freeney's at 0%, 100%, or somewhere in between.

Peyton is fairly ranked, I think. I'm not a student of football enough to rate him in a historical perspective, but there's just no way you can fairly rank him other than at the top of the top. Where he rates next Brady or the other bests at the moment, I'm not sure, but really the only black marks he has are failing to win more rings. And even that's not entirely fair as he's not been part of a team that's been as strong on both sides of the ball as the Pats were in their big run. To have had the kind of success he had in the regular season over the years is astounding, and it's not terribly surprising for a team, even an offensive juggernaut like the Colts were, to have trouble in the post-season with their history of flawed defenses.

As for Brees, honestly I barely have enough time to follow the Colts, so I don't have much of an opinion. Other than to say I wish him luck the NEXT time he gets a shot at the ring. Hopefully his upcoming loss on Sunday will fuel his fire then.

    • Yeah.  As far as remaining still, I was thinking body rotates around the spine like an axis.  Instead of pivoting, some like me, sway, come off that axis, leave weight on back foot, etc.  
    • I apologize on behalf of… idiot men. Sorry about that. Next time, tell the guy to shut up. 😛  Day 553, May 8, 2024 18 holes from the whites with @rwolfe. Windy AF today, but hit some good shots. Slid back a little from where I was the previous two days, but… I can get it back. Made a pretty nifty birdie on 12 from some pretty odd places. 😄 
    • The angles look fine. Get as much light as you can on the area — you want the highest shutter speed you can get. Less blur.
    • Snap @ Tour Spoon! Birdied 11 yesterday. Hit a poor iron ,stopped on edge of bunker , pitch with my lob wedge landed about 6’ away and went in. Only 12 & 14 to go, long par5’s into the prevailing wind. Might be waiting a while although I did have about 15’ on 12 after the birdie on 11, didn’t miss by much.
    • Tested the Maxfli TourS yesterday. Compared to my former ball, the Titleist AVX, I got an extra 10 yards off the driver and half a club (5-7 yards) off the irons. The combined extra yardage from the driver and fairway wood meant that on par-5s where I usually hit an 8-iron third shot, I hit a PW. It's just a smidgen softer than the AVX and seems to spin well. Some of the reviews indicated a low ball flight, but I did not notice it. I also did not observe any problems with the paint quality, which was an issue with previous Maxfli models up to and including the U series.  My previous round I tested the Bridgestone E6, a two-piece ball with a different cover. It was OK; the same distance and feel as the AVX but with less spin.
