Tiger had a good press conference yesterday.  He talked about his game, and other interesting Golf issues regarding minorities and some other things where he gave interesting insight.  Not surprisingly, no one either noticed or cared to comment that it was a good press conference.

People (society) these days are way to addicted to drama.

The questions were polite and his answers were okay. It was a normal press conference which was a nice change from last week. Surprised "brocks" didn't create a thread declaring it the GPCOAT.

Geez, did I leave my curtains open last night? Try not to think about me so much.

Sorry, the level of vitriol in you thread starter belies any claim that you were ever a tiger fan.  You didn't stop liking him.  It is one thing to stop being a fan of someone.  It is another to spew the kind of garbage you started this thread with.  It shows your true colors.  But hey, at least you apologized.  LOL



I really have to say - you are a ****ing idiot for writing this. First, I am professional Jazz Musician - I have toured with Branford Marsalis (African American) Slide Hampton (African American) , Billy Higgins (African American). I also have many African American people in my family and have dated three African American Women. you have illuminated part of the problem with the frightening speed with which you jumped to race to try to justify your opinion. this has NOTHING to do with race. It's about his disgusting on course behavior - all of which has been highlighted yet once again this week at the Master's - i.e. thrown clubs, damaged tee boxes from him slamming his three wood into the gorund etc etc..

I am parachuting out of this thread - you sir,  are a jack ass.

And you revived a thread that was a month old for this?

    • Day 37, June 10.  Today was primarily WFH, so I had several practice sessions (indoors, off a mat, into the net).  At least one each of U, 9, and 6-iron full swings with the usual priority.   I also tried a few times a putting type stroke with my 4H, as something I should probably learn how to hit (and what it does), but the mechanical shot at home off a mat doesn't tell me much of what it's doing.  That's something I should probably try on a real green, not during a round until I've tried it.
    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • 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?
