I try to imagine how Dusty would take it if he extended his hand to a fellow manager and was told no thanks... that's a bullshit move...not to mention there are nearly a month of meaningless games left to play...
I agree with your thoughts on Jack/Tiger... except... majors aren't easy to win... back in the day, Woods made everything...not so much now... and you have to get the ball in the hole to win... will be win one this year? Probably... because he's due... but the clock is ticking, and he and Jack both know that.
CP - be safe this weekend and enjoy the Blizzard of 2013... 54 here on Sunday...I'll be on the course and thinking of you folks.
I once knew a guy that was a pretty good high school basketball official...worked a couple state finals and many regional and other tournament games...had a great schedule and was enjoying doing the games...and he woke up one day and saw his daughter going into the 9th grade and another in 7th realized he had only a few years left...before they would go to college. He called the league assignors and decided to quit.... so he could spend Friday and Saturday nights at home for the first time in 20 years...doing whatever his wife and daughters wanted to do...they were surprised..after all...he was near the top... they said he'd be back in a year and he'd miss it.
that guy?...it was me... 10 years ago... and I've never regetted the decision for a moment.
all good points... BUT... this isn't CYO football...if these are the best refs in the game how do they pass on a play that could likely decide the game? you have to call what's there...or there is no need to have officials at all.... a holding call would have resulted in a first down at the 2 1/2 yard line..no way to know if they would have scored...but to not call the hold/pass interference?
what if a replacement ref had passed on the call early in the season ? the 'real' refs would have crowed about needing the 'real' refs...
Didn't like either team in the big game... sure looked like the 49ers got jobbed on the no-call...no chance in hell that wouldn't be called in the first quarter.... guess a couple refs had to be taken to the hospital last night to have their whistles removed from their throats.
After 500 years the bones of Richard III are found... under a parking garage.... maybe we should get those guys to look for Jimmy Hoffa?
so he's a gay cougar? just sayin'....
Knicks season ticket holder... can't imagine zero defense 40 times a year.... but since MSG is on my bucket list ( more for Rangers than Knicks) I'd do it once, just to say I did.
How close are you to Spike?
Congrats...glad to hear the news.
I reget I could only give this one thumbs up... well played.
