    Found some data in this article.  I would post a pic but I’m at my pic limit.  

    says he golfed the following # of times year over year:

     

    2017: 87 times  

    2018: 67 times 

    2019: 84 times 

    2020: 47 times 

    that’s 71 times per year on average or just short of once a week.  You telling me this guy waits there day after day waiting to catch a long shot?

    There are more than 71 weeks in a year?

  2. This feels like Michael Jordan-esque motivation. His commentary about Starocci's knee was a whole lot of so what. Nickal's reaction was a bunch of phony bluster. But if that is what he uses for motivation after all these years of grinding, then so be it.

    As for the fan part, yeah f*** that guy. As Burroughs said directly to him at the time, "what have you done?"

    Yeah this needs to get explained in a meaningful way. As of now I'm assuming that idiot in the stands is deep in burroughs head.

    The fans part I get. He got booed by the fans, and then there was that dipshit in a PSU shirt leaning over the railing and getting into it with JB. But is he really that upset with Mesenbrink still? Seems silly. Or is there something Nolf did or said? Seems unlikely. And what is his beef with the coaches?

    I'm going to go out on a limb here and say his motive, goal or objective was to shoot and kill President Trump. I will also say that the reason, motive, goal or objective was to prevent him from winning the election and being President again. I will also say you are a smart person.  What other possible motive, goal or objective could there be? 

    I have no insight to the diseased mind. And make no mistake, anyone who decides to aim a gun at a person has a diseased mind.

    Had the shooter killed trump would it be ok to be reckless then? When they shot the congressman on the ball field that morning, I already knew something was going to happen. I had been monitoring all the nasty rhetoric that was being bantered about. The temperature was at a boiling point. The night before it happened, I had a strong feeling somebody was going to snap and they did. This behavior is unacceptable.

    No

    I'm just a little pissed off right now. You have an opposing parties supporter's trying to assassinate the republican nominee. Just to be clear I have never heard of a supporter trying to murder their own nominee. Have you? Please tell me what I am missing here. Both sides have nut jobs. But only one side is trying to assassinate their opponent. Please tell me what I am missing.

    Ok, so you are being reckless. There are an infinte number of motives, but you have pre-determined one.

    I, too, find it outrageous that someone, and now multiple people, want to assassinate Trump, but I will reserve judgement on motivation until anything is known.

    No secret service near the golf course?

    • A Secret Service agent spotted a rifle barrel sticking out of fence and “engaged” with the suspect, Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw said at a news conference late Sunday afternoon. The suspect fled in a car and was taken into custody after being stopped on the highway.

    We should as Americans be mad as hell. Trying to eliminate your political foe in order to win is unconscionable. The FBI and the Secret Service are still dragging their feet on the first assassination. Why is the opposing party doing this? 

    And your evidence for this is what? Or are you just being reckless?

    Does anyone know how you qualify for this tournament? 

    Some people missing/wish to have seen this weekend:

    Suriano, Zane Richards, Crookham, Bouzakis

    Beau Bartlett, Nick Lee, Andrew Alirrz(signed up), Kaleb Larkin(signed up), Yianni((hurt), McKenna, Kolodzik, Pat Lugo, Jaydin Eierman, Mendez, Caleb Henson, Meyer Shapiro

    Facundo, McFadden(hurt. Barely made it to OTT), Lujan, Gabe Arnold

    Nate Jackson(retired?), Christian Carroll

    I feel like Beau Bartlett or Nick Lee at 70 would be a stretch.

  10. As I was saying, one of Trump's favorite bits is, when challenged, to play (?) dumb even while exposing himself as a liar. How about this ditty about that nut job, Laura Loomer?

    “She’s a strong person. She’s got strong opinions, and I don’t know what she said, but that’s not up to me. She’s a supporter,” Trump said.

    So which is it? You know about her opinions? Or you don't know what she said? All in the same sentence.

    Or how about him not giving two shits about the people he puts in danger with his lunatic claims?

    The city hall in Springfield was forced to close due to a bomb threat on Thursday. Two elementary schools were evacuated Friday “based on information received from the Springfield Police Division,” the Springfield City School District announced Friday. Two local hospitals — Kettering Health and Mercy Health Springfield Regional Medical Center — were also forced into lockdown due to bomb threats Saturday, according to statements sent to CNN.

    And then Trump goes to his patented "I'm too dumb to know what is going on" cop out:

     

    Trump dismissed those concerns on Friday, and again on Saturday when asked whether he denounced the threats in Springfield.

    “I don’t know what happened with the, uh, bomb threats,” Trump said.

    The man is a coward.

  11. I have an alternate theory.

    Theory #1 was Trump exits as soon as humanly possible. It is all found money. Get whatever you can. It certainly won't be billions, what with trying to sell 60% of the company. But the market has already anticipated this as the stock has slid hard in front of the lockup expiration.

    But Trump declared he will not be selling. So either he sells anyway and has to deal with certain litigation for securities fraud, or he does hold on. But with less than $4 million of annual revenue and something like $50 million of annual losses, what are you holding on to?

    Then it hit me. Bribes. If you are looking to influence a president what better way than to send wads of cash to his company, legitimately, by buying wads of services? And services are so much better than goods. Goods are inefficient. Goods have to be manufactured. Goods have a cost for the producer. Then goods have to be shipped. And where will you keep all those Trump bibles, and Trump hats, and Trump books? No, services are where it is at.

    And what better service than advertising? Advertising is so much more efficient. Money flows in one direction and nothing (?, good will? influence?) flows in the other direction. The marginal cost to host another ad on your site is just about zero (I think we are all living that experience now).

    Say you are Vladimir Putin and you really want the US to back off on all this Ukraine support, what can you do about that? Well, if the Greater Moscow Tourism Bureau were to buy $100 million of advertisements on Truth Social, what would be the harm? Just promoting good will between our two countries. 

    Yes, advertising is the game if you want to bribe a president. Fortunately, Trump is too principled in too many ways to cheapen himself in that way. When I think of Trump, I think faithful. Ask any of his wives. If you can find Melania, that is.
