I guess that's possible, but it just seemed so out of nowhere if done intentionally. If it was intentional I think he would've wrote something more along the lines of "Get it? Spiderface...? But yeah, benefit of the doubt.

And so much for having corn flakes for breakfast today.

I actually really like the CLA. It has a really luxurious look to it. I think everything about it, including the curves and lines just make it a gorges car. That being said. I do have some mixed emotions about its rear. But overall i think it really is a gorges car. But i would still have to go with the bimmer. Mercedes are just to plush for me.

Wasn't gonna post this here until the 2nd offense of the same kind.

Well, in my defense, I was actually exasperated.  I started to write another explanation, this just said 'I give up.'

And for the prosecution ... I absolutely thought of you and remembered that you used the line so well recently.

I don't know, is it still plagiarism if it was a genuine feeling I was having?

Verdict:  Probably.

No worries, use it all you like. I know that "exasperated" feeling and sometimes "never mind" is the least messy way out. It's not like I can claim it as intellectual property, now SergioFace ™ on the other hand...

Okay I stand behind the ball and pick an aimpoint. Address the ball and set up, slight waggle insinuating the backswing. Then take my swing. Prob 10-15 secs

But I suppose it kinda works under this definition:

Judge's ruling?  I still think he was going for "initiating."

Ha, I think that was a formatting error when copying/pasting from the website.  It should read "or artful."

I was 16 or 17yrs old.... And played in the US Junior Amateur qualifier in the summer of 1994. The first day was held at Wedgewood Country Club in Powell... I shot a 76 and was in the top 50 of the leader board. And then on the 2nd day at Muirfield Village on the tournament course... I blew my load and nearly shot 100. The course is not easy... And it beat my ass. First it was the longest course I had played to that date... And the course had very long rough. So if you missed the fairway, your ball wasn't going anywhere. In fact, it was hard to find shots in the rough that day.... And I hit more 3i/4i/5i that day than I care to remember.

It was the first time and last time I ever got to play the course.... And while I had a local caddy who's family were members on my bag, with a great deal of knowledge of the course, there are a lot of shots where you need to place the ball accordingly - or run the risk of hitting into a stream/hazard. And unfortunately for me... I wasn't playing well that day and struggled to keep the ball in the short grass. It was one helluva a tough track for me. I think today, if I played it again, it would be easier because I've gotten longer off the tee, and stronger... And would be able to manage my way around the course more so than when I was a 125lbs soaking wet with stick legs that looked like I was sitting on a chicken.

I have to wonder if the caddy's job wouldn't have been a bit easier, and consequently your score a bit better, if his entire family didn't spend the whole round on your bag?

I also wonder how, exactly, one is allowed to priviledge to become a member of your bag??

First, you're a dbag.  Now that we got that straight... Let me answer your question!

a.) I had never played the course, so we contacted the tournament director and they got us in contact with the course.

b.) The course then made a recommendation on a caddie... A caddie who's Father was a member - and he was in college trying to make a few extra bucks on the side

c.) My caddy knew the course well.  Unfortunately for me... It didn't help.

    • 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?
