You know, this will just balloon into something uncontrollable. First, it's the SB, then The World Cup, then the Olympics, then the World Series, etc... Eventually, work will disappear from the face of the earth, nothing gets done, dystopia ensues and we extinct ourselves, all because of this silly pigskin game. :-D

Nah... computers will have taken over long before that happens.

Never misunderestimate our ability to work against our own good. Odds that we off the world ourselves w/o any help from The Singularity, I'll take those odds.:8)

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

When I was working I thought that the Monday after SB would be a great day to stay at home. Since we have better weather in the summer here in Michigan, I'd vote to take an extra day when the weather is good enough to be outside golfing.

but....

since I'm recently retired, I don't care.....:beer:

I think it's a bit goofy.... Instead of people, you know, being more responsible and not getting so sloshed they can't make it to work let's just give them the day off with pay? How about no.

 

Sometimes I guess I can be a bit of a dick about this stuff, I mean if they made it a holiday it's not like I'd pass it up... I just think it's a dumb reason to have a paid day off.

KICK THE FLIP!!

That is an interesting bet, I say we don't off outselves.....I will take the bet for 1 Billion internet points!

Now all we have to do is figure out how and when we settle up

Players play, tough players win!

    • Okay, so in a golf shop and to my surprise I see a Cleveland Smart Sole Chipper in the used bin. Its the same chipper Mark Crossfield went ga ga over a few years back. It's in the used bin, but it still has the plastic on the grip and still has the plastic on the head. 39 bucks. ... So, for roughly the price my sister pays for coffee I can get the chipper Mark Crossfield says everyone should stick in their bag.  So, thirty seven dollars and sixty three cents later that bad boy is all mine. (BTW - I asked the guy what the best he could do on it and he said 35 bucks. ... Always ask what's the best they can do on clubs out of the used bin. They will nearly always take a couple dollars off for you.)  Anyway, I brought it home and tested it first in the basement. I skulled my first shot... and my second... Hmm.... I must be doing something wrong. I got back and watch the Mark Crossfield video.  I take the thing to the course. ... I'm excited to try it out. ... I skull far more than my fair share. I thought you weren't supposed to be able to miss hit this thing.  Apparently, I suck at chippers, Which is weird, because I'm a descent chipper with "normal" clubs. Anyone who's played with me will tell you I can be wildly inconsistent off the tee. I can tug a wedge shot with the best of them. I can miss 4 foot straight uphill putts. I can top a 3-wood. But my chipping is generally pretty solid. Shotscope tells me I'm better than a 5 HCP chipping.  WTH - I thought these were supposed to be easier to use???  I have a buddy who actually does suck at chipping. I'm going to have him try it and see what happens.
