LOL, Men in Blazers at the USO

That "Tomorrow" heart medication commercial is the absolute worst.

[RJH999]

Furyk has been awful.

Adam Scott is the only major winner within 3:

 

Shane "You F***** Idiot" Lowery is in the lead.

Like I said earlier, if you tune in to only see the big boys compete or to see carnage, this is not your week. Birdies are going down and a lot of new names we are not used to seeing are on the front page.

Wife wants to know if the leaders have a chance of finishing the round before dark, and what happens if they don't. I ran out of answers.

Back 9 playing easier than front. You could see someone these guys get to 5 or 6-under by day's end. Really surprised  at how many birdies Oakmont is surrendering. Think you're gonna start seeing some separation here.

What is your idea of separation, how many strokes? Do you just enjoy being wrong about most of your predictions? Because your track record sucks.

Quite happy to see some new and new-ish names...although a bit surprised.

Damn, what crawled up your butt? Having a bad day? Geez. And Vegas says otherwise about my predictions, thank you very much. I've posted my winnings here before. Goodbye now.

You never make predictions. Just rip on others. Easy peasy.

Landry is impressing me. In a Ben Curtis kind of way.

I'm dreading the inevitable Icarus round of 80 coming for Andrew Landry tomorrow.

I'm keeping this comment in mind to prove you wrong homie

Jason Day moves into the top 10 with eagle on 4. -5 today after 13 holes. 

After that +6 on opening day, he's Even on the tourney now.

In 1881, there was the "Four Dead in Five Seconds" gunfight. 

In 2016, Lee Westwood gained four strokes in five seconds to earn a share of the lead.

Sounds like I went away for an exciting segment.  What happened?

They finish tomorrow.  It isn't like when you and I play and darkness falls, and we don't get to come back at daybreak and start at the 13th (or wherever we were).

FWIW- the commentator on the web feed for Jason Day's group just mentioned that even though Day is within 4, "there will be separation from the leaders as they get to the back 9- since the back 9 is playing so much easier."
