Yep. That was really it. It was a non-hitting drill and Vontaze just couldn't control himself. Like usual.

I like that the Bengals aren't a complete punching bag like they used to be back in the day. Lewis deserves some credit for that. However, the lack of discipline this team consistently shows is an annual stumbling block. Burfict and Jones are the poster children.

The Bungles are a joke as long as they roster these two clowns.

Sure. Still, it's a different kind of joke than what they were in the 90s and early 00s. That stuff largely changed me from a "fan" to a spectator. Put it this way. I've cried my last tear over pro football.

Myles Garrett hurts ankle in one of the last practices before the opener...feared out for weeks.  My Browns are cursed.  F'n cursed.

Sure I wasn't expecting to be world beaters this year but at least healthy for once.

Fairways and Greens.

Weird night to start off with here. I have Kelce and Hill from the Chiefs and the Patriot defense. 

Of course bed time will be at the half anyway.

Glad you posted this.  Forgot there was a game tonight to start the season.  

Although like you will be in bed by halftime.  One of the big disadvantages to being in the Eastern time zones is not seeing the end of any football game that kicks of at 8:00 or later.  Might be another sign that I am getting old.

Browns will win 9 games this year. 
 

Unfortunately I'm including the 4 they won in preseason...

That's about where I have them also. Stuff breaks right for them (like Kizer hitting the grounding running), top side may be six or seven.

The Brownies get to be ole Vontaze's first game back from his most recent suspension. That's something to look forward to.

Good grief.... I am going to be asleep before this game even starts.  Somebody needs to wake me up when kickoff finally happens.

Fingers crossed the Rams can make it 2-0 this evening. Delighted to have AD back in that defence and think the Redskins are a good match for us to have. A nice, interesting week 1 in general so hoping for more of the same!

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

What's in the bag: Callaway X2 Hot Driver, Titleist 915F 3 wood, X2 Hot 3 Hybrid, 3, 5-AW Apex Pro irons, 54*, 58* Cleveland RTX, Odyssey Versa 1 Putter

So. From David Johnson to Jacquizz Rodgers in one week.

Awesome.

Glad I drafted Kerwynn Williams in the 15th round...

Yeah it was rough. Fortunately I knew better than to start him. 

Wanted to see how they'd play him first. Didn't look good lol
 

P.S. Browns were definitely Brownsing hard yesterday.

Yup.  My Browns looked the part.  New QB gets a migraine and the rest of the team looked BLEH.  Now off to Indy to face a Luck-less team.  They are actually favored for the first time since 2015.  I'm sure they'll find a way to mess that up.

Fairways and Greens.

I don't know that the rest of the team looked BLEH. Turn the ball over 4 times and only give up 24 points? Plus have the D on the field for that amount of time? Hey, Kizer's a rookie, and he's looking like one!

Anybody see any reason at all why Miami over NYJ isn't safe this weekend?

After a close shave with Arizona last week in the Suicide League, I'm looking for a less stressful Sunday.

Struggling a bit with this week's pick in that format too.  Miami on the road, coming from a home game in Los Angeles, crossing coasts... but up against the Jets.  Giants look bad so far this season too.  FWIW, in my league I'm debating Eagles or Dolphins this week.

Yeah. Eagles over Giants is the one my brother wants.

With a certain BM in my regular line up, I've watched the NYG crap-fests both the past two weeks. Maybe its just denial on my part, but they can't really be that bad. It would, however, be tempting to pick the Eagles and be able to save better teams for later.

Something about 0-2 makes people start worrying about their jobs.

    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
    • Hello, I've been playing a Teardrop td17 F.C. putter for many years and love it. It still putts and feels as good or  better than any of the new putters I've tried and it's in excellent condition except the face has dings in it ever since I bought it used that kind of bother me. I was just wondering if it's possible to have some really shallow horizontal grooves milled into the face on a "roll face" putter. I think I would rather spend some money on it instead of trying to get used to a new putter.  Thanks
