That was a heck of a shot

Just mind boggling, as was his flop on 18 last night. Hope he makes this putt.

When Tiger starts sucking, there is no one better ... at sucking.

Ton my point, Tiger is throwing away the Fed Ex playoffs. Too bad. Had a chance to make some ground but throwing it away on this back nine. Looking more and more like an early end to the season for him.

Tiger doing something he never does-Oh wait he almost always does this just haters do not give him credit for it.

"The expert golfer has maximum time to make minimal compensations. The poorer player has minimal time to make maximum compensations." - And no, I'm not Mac. Please do not PM me about it. I just think he is a crazy MFer and we could all use a little more crazy sometimes.

Right… only they do, and not only that, but they have to pay in the whole time as well.

I'll offer you straight up odds at $1000 apiece on the two things you stated:

Tiger retires at the end of the 2015 calendar year by citing an injury (I take no, you take yes).

Tiger wins a sanctioned PGA Tour event before he turns 46 (I take yes, you take no).

Nope. I'd rather take bets from idiots, and you're no idiot.

If (or when) Tiger wins, I'm already out (-$900). That's enough for me.

Okay then. I'll just call you out early in 2016 and then again in a few years. :-)

In other TW-related news, this seems to be somewhat correct. But the next time he plays it could be 0-for-2 for all we know…

The announcers just said Jay Haas was given "line of sight relief" from a building.

This is contrary to my understanding of the rules.

Did they misspeak or am I wrong?

Never use a paragraph when a sentence will do.

Kevin Chappell reminds me a lot of the 2010 version of Dustin Johnson (on the left). Kinda eerie. [URL=http://thesandtrap.com/content/type/61/id/129135/] [/URL][URL=http://thesandtrap.com/content/type/61/id/129136/] [/URL]

I thought that earlier today!

Troy Kelly will win for his first PGA Tour victory and last minute invitations to the PGA Championship & Bridgestone. Scratch that it's Troy Matteson. Whoops his name is "Troy Merritt".

Congrats to Troy Merritt, held everybody at bay and finished with a exclamation mark on the 18th. And look, his first name starts with a T and flip that M over and you get W. What more can you ask for?...

Dude had missed the last 5 cuts in a row. Pretty special stuff to turn that around and win.

    • 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.
