I've watched some, usually the night time replay. Fun stuff. I mean, obviously we're not watching Bayern v. Barcelona here, but it's entertaining. There've been some nice goals (and some totally horrendous ones too).

Alex Morgan is pretty darn cute too. She's pretty easy to root for.

I've got the U.S. as well. That second half was pretty convincing today, they seem to be pretty clutch, and have quite the bench. Japan's no pushover though. FWIW the final is at 2 on sunday (though they usually don't start for another 20-30 minutes), and the Open Championship is scheduled to end at 1:30 (or, coverage is at least).

Finishing this with penalty kicks is like game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals being decided in a shootout. So dumb. They should play 7 on 7 or something until someone scores.

It would be like deciding the Masters (or any major) back at the putting green, giving each player five 5 foot putts.

I was really impressed by the players' skill level. Rapinoe, in particular, has excellent ball control, field vision, and leg strength. She made outstanding passes and moved well on and off the ball.

Bring back the golden goal!!!

Heh. U.S. would have won with golden goal. I know they tried it for a while, but eventually went back to the 330 extra minutes plus penalties if needed.

Sad ending. I'm not sure why you sub out Rapinoe and not use your third sub, but oh well. Heroic run nonetheless. Very league of their own-esque.

    • 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.
