Thank you for sharing. They look like ‘men’ on TV. But giving context - he is 22 years old - says it all. We all make mistakes in life. In football you win and lose as a TEAM. As an example, the punt coverage had been better, the Chiefs would not have had such a short field.

Disclaimer: I am USGA certified in the Rules. I always tell people I play with “the first Rule of Golf is to have fun”. If it is friendly game / social golf, move it. Why? Because if it was a tournament, The Committee would have marked that GUR.

Trump’s schoolyard bully act is so 2016. 8 years later he has no policies, no platform, and therefore no plan to govern. He likes the ceremony and adulation of the Office of the Presidency. A classic narcissist.

I am a local at Torrey Pines. We have a Local Rule where if you cannot find the ball in 1 minute, you get a free drop in a reasonably assume area. This keeps pace of play up as certain times of the year the rough is brutally hard.

Christie is a complete breath of fresh air. Coming from a moderate Independent (and former R), he is the only one speaking to the disenfranchised middle. It might not be a winning strategy, but I applaud 👏 him for admitting his mistakes and forcefully trying to right the wrong.

My amazing summer of golf ended last weekend. The summary: 1. Augusta National for the Monday practice round. 2. Oakmont to work inside the ropes for the US Open. 3. Played The Old Course (2x), Muirfield (36 holes) and Royal Dornoch in July. 4. Volunteered at Cypress Point. 🙌🏼

I am an Independent. Sadly, this is what Trump’s constituents voted for. And this is one of many negative results of your partisan voting record. There is always the “law of unintended consequences”. But in this case, it was all spelled out in Project 2025. And here we are.

Thank you (again) General for your leadership. And your willingness to inspire people like myself - exGOP moderate Independents - to stand up versus quietly sitting along the sidelines. We are the votes that will eventually matter.

Fed Governor Waller - likely Trump Fed Chair nominee - said on CNBC last week that “tariffs are absolutely a tax on the consumer.”

Tampon Tim? I am an Independent. I would expect more dignity from the WH; not middle school taunts.
