Anyone watch this? I can't help but mention one specific moment for anyone who watched it.....they are on the 14th or 15th hole (a par 3) and Lopez asks if Suzzanne Petterson (the guest referee) if she can show the way......then Trump jumps in and says, hey c'mon Suzzane, we'll each hit a ball.......as he is doing this, he walks behind Petterson toward the tee box and smacks her on the ass with the back of his hand and says c'mon....just totally classic.....only Trump.

I'm sure I'll be in the minority in this but I was more impressed and saw more potential in DeLaHoya's game than Jerry Rice's. Especially when he stuck that pitch and rolled it back on the 18th hole under pressure. That being said, I'd take Jerry's game any day. LOL!

I LOVE these shows, they are pure entertainment.....

First, you have The Donald, his arrogance, and his love of golf......next, you mix it in with celebs that are good athelets and damn good golfers that most of us can relate to.....you put them on amazing golf courses, let their personalities out, and have a little fun.....I like it....

On the first show, I loved the fact that LT delofted his 9 iron to about a 6 iron - Donald kept saying, "wow, he's 160 out and hitting only a 9 iron"......like LT, that guy is competetive....Jerry has a good game, that whole match was fun.....

De La Hoya has got to be one of the coolest guys on the planet......guy has a great attitude, very competetive, seemed to have some great insight, and was just fun to listen to.....just became a big fan of his.....Lopez is funnae and a pretty good golfer....

I'm gonna keep tuning in...."nobody wants to play golf on a hill....they want to play at a mountain, or a valley, not a hill"....LOL

Yeah I caught that! LOL

She was better than the Rice/LT match referee (women long drive champion?) who I think said 1 word the whole time. BTW are they a referee? I am not sure what they are. I suspected they were there to add insight. But the Rice/LT women seriously said ZERO! I can imagine what the members of that private Philly course really were thinking when they listened to DT talk about the club and the changes he was going to make. One that he is an arrogant arse and two how much he would be raising their fees!!! LOLOLOL

I watched both last night as well. Pretty cool show, I thought Trump would make it lame, but he was pretty cool. I liked how he would put money on the line for certain holes for their charity. They did a great job of making both matches competitive and entertaining. I agree with the comments on De La Hoya, he was fun to watch and seemed like a cool guy.

The lady on the LT/Rice show was Blair from one of the Big Break shows... I liked the show also. I still can't get over how much De La Hoya was able to bring the ball back. He must strike the ball pretty damn pure!

Watched both shows last night. The Donald, despite his character flaws, certainly is entertaining, enthusiastic, and truly loves the game. LT definitely knows how to score well with a bad swing---wonder if he always putts that well.

Yeah I just googled her. Wow! That is her. The whole show I was trying to figure out who she was and why she was there. She is nice to look at but not much presonality (though Donald is pretty good at...make that an expert.....at over powering others).

This show real fun to watch. John Daly and Rocco Mediate are up next week.

Oh perfect! I'll definitely watch that one. DT might be arrogant but it just shows he knows what he wants when it comes down to business.

I really enjoyed it! I honestly had no idea that either of them were that good. I didn't think George Lopez took anything seriously. Haha. Very entertaining though, and man would I love to play that course. I would need about 2 balls a hole just to keep playing, but I would love to play it!

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip.

      Ever Get Paired up With a Twosome Including a 2 Year Old?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)

      Minimum Exercise for Strength and Muscle Growth

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
