Not sure if this is the 2nd of a couple shots at me, and I wouldn't be offended if they were, because I agree with your statement. I would only add that if you want to see more opinions from the type of people that you were referring to in those two posts, I would say it has to start sometime, and perhaps this was my time? Furthermore, I was also referring to yourself, as well as some others, as being the source of many thought out and well presented positions on various topics of debate I've had the pleasure of reading over the years (or I wouldn't keep coming back, lol.) Because it can be done without the senseless and personal cheap shots that accompany so many other posts I have seen.

I am one of the infrequent interlopers on this board. I have a few rules that I try to follow:

1) stick to hockey, particularly stick to the Buffalo Sabres
2) don't insult anyone or personalize anything. Respectfully challenge posters if it is a hockey based topic
3) ignore everything else.

3 major wins in his last 6 (50%), missed the Masters in April. He joins 4 other golfers to win the US Open and PGA in the same year (Sarazen, Hogan, Nickalus, Woods). Dude is gonna be player of the year, good sh!t!

edit- hats off to Adam Scott. For a guy that honestly can't putt, he hung in there. Dude is the sh!t from tee to green.

scott is a cheater

they need to limit length of putters


dude's thumb is on the top and pressed against his body


hats off to brooks though

The interesting part is he was warming up with a regular sized putter today at one point. He would be one of my favorites if not for that pole he calls a putter.

Pretty much covers it, and well, lol. I've just seen a few pretty low blows lately, and although I know the targets of those low blows can handle themselves just fine, I just thought an opinion from an "outsider" might encourage a little more respectful behavior. I guess that's what it took to drag me into this will all you crazy fackers, lol. Admit it people, deep down you all love each other.

I would put him on my second tier of likes if he had a normal putter

Side note. The theme music CBS and TNT use us kind of catchy. It's still ringing in my head.

Great, thanks for clarifying, even though I pretty much thought so. Just don't want to get off on the wrong foot as I may have done in the past without intending to.

Homie, I’m liking two rb’s to start from 7.

Gurley
Bell
Johnson
Zeke
Barkley
Kamara

Those are my rankings. If they all go in front of me, do u go AB/Julio or Hunt? That’s a tough one, but don’t think there is a wrong answer

What's the wording of the rule though? I know the putter can't be "anchored", but that's kind of vague, that, to me, means the putter itself can't be anchored to your body.

Really?

I don't know about that. 77 total targets in 2 years. I know they're allegedly trying to get him more involved in the passing game, but ahead of any of Gurley, Bell or Johnson is crazy.

Agreed. Loved Predator 2. The scene with the old lady confronting the Predator with a broom ? Classic.

"Bernhard Langer and Scott McCarron ruffled feathers last season with their controversial putting strokes, techniques believed to be in violation of golf's anchoring ban. Though the issue relatively died down following the USGA's statement that the duo was not in violation of the rule, expect the subject to heat up again as Adam Scott plans on using a similar technique."

looks anchored to me


if they make it illegal for putters to be over 40-42 inches, problem goes away

Yao Ming will never be able to golf?

I don’t understand why anchoring is illegal. It’s just a different technique. Nobody is saying we should outlaw the different putting grips - nobody is saying we should be outlawing all the new materials in clubs and balls. They are changing the game more than anchoring the putter.
