Ah, the interwebs and technology, how I love thee. Did not know this was a thing until now.

That's funny because I watched this whole thing live and noticed her immediately.  But I'm apparently an oblivious idiot because it never dawned on me that she was trying to get noticed by Rory.  I even thought that she must be Sergio's girlfriend (or wife, whichever he has)

you didn't know what was a thing?

Women?  Stalkers? Unnatural blonds?

Believe it or not, both of them predate the internet ;)

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

Same here. She stood out from the typical golf crowd and looked like she wanted some attention.

I didn't know about the social media storm that ensued. All the stuff following the video in the link. A woman primps and preen for attention for 10 seconds and it's a thing, broken down to it's very teenie morsels in every detail. I thought people would just think, she's flirty with him, ha ha, that's it. Twitter, HD and fast internet, potent mix.

I noticed her immediately also, I was she's better looking than the normal golf fan and look she's trying to get his attention. I actually said that out loud to my family at the time.

Her dress top seemed to slip down more and more, good thing it didn't go to playoffs or they might have had to arrest her.

I saw this too, and was wondering if I was just imagining it. It almost seemed like the camera crew was trying to focus on her. I didn't know CBS was also behind match.com for golfers.

This was awesome...I noticed her fix her hair up all "perfect" and just blatantly stare at him, but he never looked lol. I wondered if that dude behind her was "with" her and was getting annoyed...cuz he was kinda doing that confused-constipated-jealous-fake-smile thing.

Of course he never looked.  He had $1.53 million to win.  She was good looking, no doubt but she wasn't that good looking. B-)

Rory can do better than that and I think he knows it too. I give her a strong 8. I initially gave her a 7 but I watched it again and stood corrected. To a guy with a job she's smoking hot, but to a guy like Rory she's ok at best I would think.

What did she do to grab his attention? Play with her hair?

Girls always do this

Stare at him?

Everyone was staring at him - it's Rory McIlroy

Nothing to see here folks

    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
