GYERO ARCHIVE

[wcc31]

- I hate this "waiting a week" shit with "The Night Of." I want to watch them all now.

- "Ballers" is still terrible. Athlete/celeb cameos are still terrible 99% of the time.

- I'll take LSU to win the SEC this year.

- Thank God my schedule is packed from now until Labor Day weekend- hopefully that will make these two shit months go faster.

 

[anthonys735]

^ yep. Memommie threw Jerry's informational index card away, fwiw. He's basically dead to her.

I would say that's a fair reaction.

 

[assistbyhawkins]

^ yep.

Memommie threw Jerry's informational index card away, fwiw. He's basically dead to her, hasn't asked me about him for updates for years now, but she still does everyone else.

False. We email weekly. We texted for 2 hours last night about 60 Minutes.

 

[wildcat1973]

I'll take LSU to win the SEC this year.

As long as Johnny Jones is at LSU, I just don't see it. Give me Kentucky, especially with the new turbo athletic backcourt.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

60 Minutes threw on the Mountain Lion story at the end last night, which is always a treat.

 

[cawoodsct]

On the bet if it is 2.5, which seems like a 100% lock now, i think Phil and Tiger both win one.

Tiger's next outing is going to be scary to watch. If he were to come out with the yips and embarrass himself, i could see him saying forget it and retire, i really could, but that would be a pussy way out. What he should do is just admit it, say you are going to see some bad golf from him and play his way out of it. Many greats of the past have had the yips, don't be too proud to admit it.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Heyyyyy, that's the power to turn back timeeeeeeeeee

Amazon Echo is going to look like a f-ing Treo (or Amazon Fire Phone) when HomeKit finally comes out swinging.

HomeKit may ultimately be a better product, but the Echo has been a nice little device for me (that's completely unnecessary, obviously). I can control our front porch lights from echo or my phone- which is nice when we are out of town or out late, and we have a few small appliances that I control through Echo and Tp-link outlets. The bluetooth speaker isnt the greatest but it is fine for what I use it for.

There are a few cute little apps you can enable that are interesting. Yesterday I set the PGA app to announce JB Holmes progress hole by hole, since most of his round wasnt televised. Kind of cool.

But like i said, The whole concept of the entire "smart home" is kind of unnecessary- but it's interesting to tinker with. I mean programmable lights have been around for awhile, and most newer thermostats can be programmed to run on a schedule too.

Was pleased with Vice Principles last night.

 

[anthonys735]

-I caught a little bit of it. Meh, I don't think I'm going to pick up any shows. Probably cont watching Ballers for the occasional boob shot.

-Mr Robot coming out of the gates weird. It's on the clock.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Mr. Robot was a struggle for me as season 1 progressed. I plan to watch Season 2, or try -- but don't quite understand the sentiment that it was the best, or one of the best shows on TV.

 

[_Chase_]

Per Drew, #12 is going to be a Par 3 this year, with the Gold tees off of the Par 4 ladies teebox -- ugh, that's going to be a brutal hole. Apparently the idea is to speed up play, but that makes little-to-no sense, as that will instantly become probably the toughest Par 3 on the course, which at MCC, is saying a lot. I've played all over, and don't know of any course around here that has a more difficult collection of Par 3s.

Fine by me on that hole. I get in trouble about 85% of the time off the tee.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Me too, which is a joke really. Takes a snap hook or a complete block to really get into trouble -- which I manage to do much of the time.

 

[wcc31]

Mr. Robot was a struggle for me as season 1 progressed. I plan to watch Season 2, or try -- but don't quite understand the sentiment that it was the best, or one of the best shows on TV.

Same with me. I kind of lost interest down the stretch.

HAMBURG SNACKDOWN:

- j/k

I don't have a clue what the details of this bet are, and for an outsider, it's better that way. I'm pulling for PTI because it makes for hilarious GYERO . . . especially since one of the original bettors seemingly doesn't even know what the final bet is. If Phil couldn't win that one, it's going to be tough for the over.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

This looks like a nice thing to have:

 

[anthonys735]

Same with me. I kind of lost interest down the stretch.

I can agree with that. It came out of the gates so strong then it crossed in to unbelievable territory. Now it's firmly there and I guess trying to stay there.

 

[PTI (pti)]

Nah. BBdK has never been more confident. Easy win for him. Especially with Tiger not even playing, and Phil turning 47 next year. They'll probably win a few more apiece.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Yep, Phil is getting over the hill. It's a young man's game these days.

 

[anthonys735]

A few rules:

-In sports always go pro sooner than later.
-Always take the under on # golf majors.

^Now, PTI acting all certain that those two are washed up is nauseating and I really hope we at least see something out of Tiger again.

-Also, suck on my balls, I was right, you were wrong. Lol.

 

[anthonys735]

Don't know how you all do it with Dish/Direct. Every time it gets cloudy and rains this thing goes out. Eff that.

 

[cawoodsct]

PTI (pti) will lose the bet but for the enjoyment and smiles he gets out of this while it drags out, will be worth his eventual pay pal payment.

 

[wildcat1973]

The bet will never paid, no matter who wins the bet. This is pretty much a certainty.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Why not? Never welched on a bet in my life, and don't imagine PTI(pti) will. He'll just have to wait a long ass time until both are officially retired from Majors.

 

[cawoodsct]

Like 2035ish, so congrats gyero, on a possible 20 more years of THE BET

 

[_Chase_]

Zero chance in hell I wouldn't pay out on this bet. (1) Only little bitched don't pay when they lose (2) Can you imagine how much shit you would take on gyero for not paying it out?

PTI may win the bet (he won't), but if he does, unless Phil and Tiger both retire or die, he's going to be waiting many more years.

Tom Watson should've won the British at 59.

 

[BKH34]

This looks like a nice thing to have:

Two different two-handed pin-down blocks against the glass. Shew wee.

 

[PTI (pti)]

That's the problem with this bet. There's no end. 20 years from now, when Phil is just the ceremonial starter at Augusta, and Tiger has an artificial leg and is 18 years into retirement, you clowns still won't admit defeat.

By the way, Tom Watson did NOT win the Open at 59. I just looked it up.

 

[cricket3]

Hope everyone enjoyed their last Spicy Chicken Biscuit.

 

[B.B.d.K.]

^ that's a national outrage. Fire up the petitions.

The key to winning majors, for the greats (which Tiger/Phil both are), is putting yourself into contention as many times as possible.

As Phil proved yesterday, he's not even CLOSE to being done having opportunities. It was arguably the best golf he's ever played, tbh. Tiger, we'll see -- but I just can't make myself believe he's truly done.

-Phil's swing is meant to last -- people could learn a lot from that. Tiger's violent swing is the complete opposite. DJ will play & contend for a long ass time for the same reasons Phil is.

 

[TransyCat09]

Polynesian sauce on a corn dog is the next big thing, per my Nicholasville sources

 

[JHB4UK]

CFA getting rid of a wonderful tasty fattening selection in favor of some yolkless healthy Sloot-approved nonsense. garbage.

 

[wcc31]

I blame Sloot for this, as well.

 

[Strokin_Bandit]

Can't they just put the egg on the spicy chicken? Problem = solved.

 

[PTI (pti)]

Phil did not win yesterday. I just looked it up.

 

[_Chase_]

By the way, Tom Watson did NOT win the Open at 59. I just looked it up.

So the bet should be conceded early because a 59 year old had a putt to tie/win the open, but missed it?

 

[B.B.d.K.]

Great time down at Forecastle this weekend. Top 5 bands I saw, in no particular order.

Moon Taxi
Unknown Mortal Orchestra
All Them Witches
Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness
Ghostland Obervatory


HM to Madisen Ward & The Momma Bear, he rocked out pretty hard despite the weather.


Can't wait til next year.

 

[cawoodsct]

Phil did not win yesterday. I just looked it up.

He did however win in 2013 when you said he could never win at the British Open, despite him winning the Scottish the week before, and us picking him as our favorite.

 

[UnfrozenCatfanLawyer]

Chik-Fil-A you stupid bitches this has been the worst GD Monday ever

 

[_Chase_]

You're too old to win ever again. As evidence, I cite the fact that you did not win the last time you played. The fact that you shot 63, and 65 on Sunday, and were involved in one of the most incredible golfing duels of all-time does not matter even the slightest. Finished -17, 11 shots better than 3rd place at The Open = pack your shit up and head to the retirement home.
