MD/DC/VA Golfers - This One Goes to Eleven

She looks like a 20 year old who has had plastic surgery to look like a 50 year old trying to look like a 30 year old.

 

For the young guys : if any woman holds on to you like that -- and you're not in a Haunted House -- run away. Too needy.

GTM: Finish this joke.....

 

OCGolfRick, a lefty, a 10 handicap, and OCGolfRick's dad are in the same foursome.....

 

 

GTM answer

 

.....and after 10 minutes, OCGolfRick's Dad says to the lefty "I thought we were going to be in the same golf foursome. That's why I said 'no women allowed!'"

 

[vtnerf]

Domes, wrong.

The actual punch line is:

Left over r i g h t...

[Ocgolfrick]

Oh it gets better according to THE source for all golf related news: TMZ. She works for him. That always works out well!

Is Tiger Woods banging the general manager of his Florida restaurant?

Sure looks like it ... especially after the way they cozied up together this weekend at the President's Cup.

Tiger was arm-in-arm with Erica Herman, who was ID'd on TigerWoods.com as the GM of The Woods, which touts itself as "Tiger's flagship restaurant" in Jupiter.

Plus, Herman was sporting a "player spouse" credential on the links, according to Golf.com.

TMZ right to the chase with that first line.

Welp, that's a step up from Perkins, I guess.

The Woods has two different types of fried calamari appetizers, so you know it's fancy.

And their description makes perfect sense:

 

CALAMARI CLASSICO

Flash Fried and Served with Marinara Sauce12 P22

 

SPICY CALAMARI

Flash Fried and tossed in a Housemade Mild Sauce and topped with Blue Cheese Crumbles14 P24

 

 

"I'll have the calamari."

"The classic or spicy?"

"How spicy is the spicy?"

"Well, we toss it in mild sauce, so not."

if i had the opportunity, i would so love to eat at tiger's restaurant.

 

i'd wear a nike smedium, throw in a couple "g'day mates!" and then tell them that tiger always comps me.

 

i'd generously tip the waiter in cash on my way out.

 

 

 

golf news: i hear bulle rock is going to be bought by ron jaworski golf. maybe it already happened. TIL that ron jaworski golf is a thing.

Good to hear Johnny. This morning I was thinking about that since I knew we had someone going soon, but couldn't remember who or when. Crazy.

 

Rather than drunk buy some irons, I sober bought an iron fitting for this weekend at Golf Care Center. May end up just being some extra money down the drain, but haven't done any sort of fitting in years now. Looking forward to it, and if all goes well I'll have something in hand that I'll be able to unwrap on the 1st tee at the 7s.

 

Wade is a good guy. He has done all my fittings for 20 years. Enjoy.

[TheCityGame]

Anyone interested in Wednesday like 2:45 at Turf? I got nothing right now. Just trying to get something going.

 

Let me know if interested. $50 walking. I think it's $22 for cart.

I've met Sull at GCC before. It's like our cheers. Jack was telling us what he hated that day.

[SullGolf]

There's a new high rise apartment building going up across the street, and today he was telling me how he wouldn't live there because he's convinced something is shoddy. It's being built so fast that something must be wrong. He's pretty convinced it's not going to collapse though, so that's good.

[misplacedtexan83]

Is this the same guy that built your last irons with very heavy stiff shafts and an Xstiff in your driver that you could barely hit?

Sounds like Jackie. He's always done me right.

[baddomes]

Jack can build the hell out of a golf club.

[eagle1997]

I am disappoint that Sull didn't even give Tex a chance to fit him for free.

 

You suck Sully.

[2moreTerps]

Denny McCarthy earned his PGA tour card through the web.com finals. Impressive.

[davechen]

Yeah, but does he make two types of calamari?

RIP Tom Petty

 

Saw him a couple of times in my college days and wore out an old 8-track I made of his first two albums. Still love Damn the Torpedoes

RIP Tom Petty

 

Saw him a couple of times in my college days and wore out an old 8-track I made of his first two albums.

We were going to see him in Philly this summer. Tix were like $150 each (for not good seats). We were still prepared to do it, then ticketmaster wanted like another $50 in fees on top of each ticket.

 

In my life, some things have gotten a lot cheaper (relatively). Some things have gotten a lot more expensive. . .I can't justify the cost of a "big concert". They seem to have gone through the ROOF in the last 15 years.

 

And, I'm fine paying for fleeting, experiential things (food, golf, travel) but for some reason, the price of concerts stick in my craw. I also ABHOR TicketMaster. They are huge. They pulled some absolute crap with me once.

Agree. Tickemaster is all the things bad with concerts. They know they can bend you over the table and fist you, and there is nothing you can do about it. I love seeing the old concert posters from the 70's where tickets for top acts were under $20. No reason to have to pay $200 after Ticketmaster takes their cut.

I was just nosing around the Woods restaurant site.

 

Very boring.

 

First of all, I think the website was put together on Weebly, or SquareSpace or whatever.

 

Second of all, what a completely uninspired menu. Not that I'd expect anything less from Tiger, but wtf? Why do you want to open a restaurant and then go, "calamari, lamb chops with aged balsamic, ribs, and anything else I've ever eaten at another restaurant". Why even open one?

 

You can go to a restaurant with the same menu in Duluth.

 

I'm not oblivious to the fact that someone wants to open a restaurant and have Tiger fund it, but it's just dawned on me as time goes by that Tiger hasn't had an original thought in his life.

 

If this is what his restaurant looks like, why the h3ll would I want to play a golf course he designed?

Because people want to pay money to eat that stuff at a restaurant owned by Tiger Woods.

the same reason anyone would wear the TW collection from nike, or play nike clubs (i play nike clubs, uh oh...) because it's tiger.

 

he and i locked eyes for a fleeting moment on the 15th at liberty this weekend. i'm about ready to break out a baggy red polo and re-read "how i play golf" until i die

[dcmidnight]

I know its shocking to have to ask this again but City, please chill with the profanity. I'm tired of editing posts.

I'm probably not going to take life advice from the guy, but I really wouldn't be surprised if he knows a thing or two about golf courses.

 

Also, do #TexFittings only go for Callaway clubs? Was thinking of possibly going to GolfGalaxy for a driver fitting at some point, but I'm guessing a demo day on the range with Tex would be better

[FAbb]

I'm about 4 months late with this, but I don't know how this got missed during our punching a clown face post barrage. Better late than never, I guess.
