Has anyone seen the news today? Where Bernie Sanders just purchased a $600K house on lake front property? What a hypocrite! This scuzz owns over 1 Mill in houses, but demands the "the rich" surrender their souls to the government! This dude didn't have a real job until he was 40. Where did all this money come from?

DNC, via taxpayers.

The Elite have to compensate their vassals to a certain extent lest they rebel!

He's been drawing a six-figure congressional salary for 25 years, and a $600,000 lake house is hardly Xanadu.

A $600k house in the north east isn't exactly a Bel Air mansion. He's been earning a nearly $200k Senate salary and his wife was the president of a university.

They also sold a house that she had inherited from her parents, so they had some extra cash.

Yeah, that's not that much money around here.

Well, even full-blown communists have standards. This was one of the Stalin's homes.

Of course, if the Bern Dog and his lovely wife wanted to cement their reputation as being one with the people. ....

Weird, another complete non-story being propagated by right-wing media.  It almost seems like it was put out there to distract from something that isn't going their way  :whistle:

Plenty of that going both ways I'd say.

Right, but this one is especially stupid.  It takes all of ten seconds to figure out there's absolutely nothing to see here.  Also, just because both sides do it doesn't mean they are equally bad about it. People keep saying that and I don't buy it. Show me something equally petty from this week from the other side (that isn't from some fringe source). Either way, this junk is contributing to the dumbing down of society.

As near as I can tell, that Bernie Sanders story is from Fox News. That is fringe in my book.

I feel like this is similar to someone saying "you want stronger environmental policies but own a car, BLASPHEMY!!"

Nobody should be shocked a wealthy politician that rose to prominence as a champion of the don't-have's has expensive tastes, most are like that. Surely the Emo kids that voted for BS understood a 74 yr old politician wasn't really like them.

I heard he also bought two sets of PXG irons.......now that is living rich in my book!!!

Otherwise so what, he bought a house. Politicians deserve better than us lowly citizens anyway...

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 ·

      Hitting some good shots on my golf trip. It's good I can tell when I hit better shots the way I want to swing the ball versus when I use an older swing. Shockingly, the short game has been at worst, not harmful to my game. I am using similar feels to the full swing, in that I try to get my hands down. I've been nipping the ball clean off the turf.

      How Much do You Exercise?

      By mdl ·

      I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By Big C ·

      A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?
