    2023 Draft and Season Discussion

    i dont disagree that they need a pitcher but i'm also not going to feel sorry for a team that brought in a stud catcher last year while still keeping dArnaud, and replaced freddie with Matt freaking Olson. what I wouldn't give to bring in established players instead of the continuous cycle of prospects that we develop and then trade away. Rays tend to win a lot of their trades but Snell did just win another cy young (even if it was a lot of fluke metrics) and Glasnow feels like a guy who will finally stay healthy and be an all-star

    2023 Draft and Season Discussion

    If someone with authority could pin this for 2023 looks like a Monday March 13th start to Round 1 of our draft. Bone Rolling… maybe Monday March 6th at the latest. We can do this as early as you guys want but then there is quite a lull. 6th gives us enough time for me to set up the draft threads and all of us to enter back end exclusives.
  3. okay. i thought we were all settling up afterwards. @jerryskids @patweisers44 you guys okay with sending venmo or whatever method you prefer to edjr? @edjr you okay with taking my $100 and applying it to this seasons edex?

    ***EdEx 2024 Sentry ***

    This was a non sanctioned event last year. when did we add it to the official edex schedule?
  5. Final Scores WW: -40 (-21, -19) [-15] Skids: -39 (-25, -14) [-7] Pats: -38 (-22, -16) [-7] Lager: -38 (-19, -19) [-19] Edjr: -33 (-19, -14) [-13] I can PM my Venmo or you can all Venmo Ed if he is willing to take it for an Edex down payment.
  6. I think @jerryskids has it. We are both -39, my team Goosen has 1 hole left and Langer has 2 left but you’d win a tie breaker

    obviously. if he didn't run the team, Hackett would have been fired months ago

    ***2023 Fantasy Geek Balls League*** Season Thread

    That’s fantasy. My main league I’ve waited all year to get JJ back and he’s without cousins. Keenan Allen in all leagues and Herbert goes down. I expect they shut Keenan down but even if they don’t would it even matter?
  10. I am legitimately sorry. I saw scores going on earlier today and just figured Saturday was early and tomorrow would be later. Then my cousin is texting me about Tiger and Charlie didn’t realize it was going to be shown tape delay

    2023 Draft and Season Discussion

    I guess the one silver lining is Glasnow remains exclusive . Sad to watch all my favorite Rays leave these last few seasons.
  12. No one asked for scores? YOU GOT EM! Lager: -25 ( -15, -10) [-10] WW: -23 (-12, -11) [-10] Pats: -20 (-12, -8) [-6] Jerry: -20 (-12, -8) [-5] Edjr: -16 (-8, -8) [-8]
  13. pretty sure we count 2 teams but yes, winner take all

    yeah im still a 3H guy. havn't carried a 5W in a long time. Mine is an original TM rescue dual TP edition. Still going strong. I have a few other 3W to choose from but something stood out to me about that SIM. The way the 3Deep sits at address it's almost begging for a pull and i really have to concentrate a lot harder on clearing my hips. Didn't feel that way with the SIM.

    ** 2024/2025 Golf Talk Thread **

    i did something similar a while back by getting a callaway xhot 3deep. deeper face, really designed to be an off the tee 3 wood. no clue why I did this. I love my driver and would never opt to hit this 3 wood off the tee. If I need something "safe" i'll hit 3H or 5 iron off the tee. so this 3 wood was rarely used until recently when I started making a point to use it off the fairway on reachable par 5's without too much trouble. It's a good 250-260 but with the deep face and loft it's a challenge. That's why, possibly in this thread, I was mentioning looking for an original SIM 3 wood. That thing was so easy to hit when I had it as a rental in Madrid.

    I have Cancer :/ -- now not so great, new nodule 3/18/25

    not that you're going anywhere but this thread always reminds me that you are one of a handful of geeks i'd enjoy having a drink with or playing a round of golf. As long as you don't start posting about how unattractive I am when I don't bang you one day

    i had a hoofer as a junior golfer and wore it into the ground. Replaced it... damn, probably been 8 years now... with a new hoofer. I had stayed away when they were using retractable straps and that nonsense. My old hoofer would always lean/slump on the back of a cart but my newer one has been great. Stays upright and in place. They probably have individual divider style options if one really wants. I also walk a lot but have opted for a push/pull cart when I do and my current hoofer has no issues on a hand cart. some might say its an overrated bag because its Ping and that titleist or sun mountain are better but I think all are good. Sun Mountain was super trendy 20 years ago and have continued to make quality bags.

    ** 2024/2025 Golf Talk Thread **

    saw some videos of one of those annoying "IG golfers" the other day. His gimmick seems to be his pause at the top of his backswing. Or at least thats part of what got him his following. He capitalizes on it with videos focused on it... for example he has to answer trivia questions while paused at the top of his backswing before he can follow through, etc. only reason I mention it is that in one of his vids he finally did pauses during his putts. Didn't do any research but am wondering if this is legal. It almost seems to me that taking your putter back and pausing and then finally following through could be pretty beneficial for anyone who struggles with "yips" or just basic nerves over shorter putts. Eliminate any mechanical issue during a normal take back and follow through that causes you to push or pull a putt off your intended line. You could take the putter back, pause, look at the hole and bring your eyes back down to the ball, and just push forward when you feel confident. Basically eliminate the back stroke from the equation completely = just focus on the follow through = easier to keep the ball on your intended line? I have no idea. have not tried it. If it did help, I would think it only helps for short putts. idk, its out off season here and i'm bored between indoor sim sessions

    Weekly High Scores

    perfect illustration thus far of why weekly high score means very little. glad we didn't pass a vote to pay it out. keeping track of it for funsies is cool but otherwise is a waste of pot $. our regular season points winner appeared once and not until week 12. only 2 teams appeared twice and one of those was herbie with his only two wins
