The original posts weren't even anywhere out of line. There's nothing to object to.

And you never make rude jokes with your friends? Are you a member of a Nunnery? Life is meant to be enjoyed. I honestly can't understand your logic.

I don't demean other races or the sexual orientation of others. Ever. If you think that's OK and you enjoy that sort of humor then that's your issue. I get plenty of enjoyment out of life, I don't need to be sexist to do so.

Nobody in this thread demeaned other races or the sexual orientation of others. Are we even in the same thread

Where's the sexism? The only thing i saw was someone commentating that she is apparenly a lesbian. Is homosexuality a hushed up topic in your family? People can talk about this stuff openly, you know.

There was no "demeaning" of other races or sexual orientation in this thread.

I know. That was in response to deasy55's post about making rude jokes with your friends. But yes, joking about Kelly Tilghman's sexual orientation is out of bounds IMO.

Seriously guys? C'mon, this thread should have died with the announcement that there would be no announcement. The only thing that came out of it was that Steniy is joining Excel Sports Management.

Excuse me? Since when does rude jokes = demeaning of races or social orientation? I make rude jokes with my friends. Included in those friends is a gay person and a person of asian decent.

The 'announcement' was kinda like a balloon with all the air let out of it.  On another note....is it not ironic that MSchott is being quite defensive towards certain comments when M. Schott (Marge Schott) was one of the most bigoted sports franchise owners of the late 20th century IIRC.  I'm just saying....

FYI, M is the first letter of my first name and Schott is my last name. no relation to Marge. No irony.

I can't believe this thread took up 3 full pages. Some people need to learn life lessons, and the fact that they are adults and are still immature babies speaks for itself. We have no business talking about sexual orientation on this website. It's about GOLF.

And thanks to you there were about 20 extra messages about her orientation.  Well done.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

Not his fault. All he did was try to end it in the first place. But some people just keep talking and talking and then in turns into an argument.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
