It has been oddly cathartic to see @pablo.show do all of this to a bunch of guys who probably thought that the modern fourth estate, in its weakened condition, would never touch them.

I regret to inform the internet that the KPop Demon Hunters songs are stuck in my head. "You're my soda pop, my little soda pop," things of that nature. I don't mind it, but it might kill me.

Mid Pines Golf Club Course Review and Rating
Donald Ross’s use of the land is the primary source of Mid Pines Golf Club's challenge: in order to score well, players must hit precise approaches from all manner of uneven lies.

Early in the Great Depression, the city of Salem funded the construction of municipal golf course as a form of unemployment relief. Today, Olde Salem Greens is one of my favorite nines in the country. And it could be even better.

The WNBA season is the perfect length. I'm sure capitalism will eventually force it to expand, but five months and 40-something games plus playoffs is 👌. If only the NBA (not to mention the PGA Tour) could get to that size.

One of my dad's friends got single-length irons a few years back. Basically ruined his life.
Watching Bryson is so harmful for the average golfer. Seeing some jacked goon hitting a nine iron 183 is gonna ruin so many men.
