Is there a golf tournament on?  Forgot (yawn), been watching BB vids.  Of all the Big 3 BB's, none sounded like a Max Wedge Cross Ram.  What a brute!  Subject to arguments to the contrary.

How did I not know about these?  If my dad was still alive, I'd buy these for him in a split-second even though he'd likely have no idea who is Homer Simpson.  I think I've mentioned before that tennis was the first sport my brothers and I learned because our dad was big into tennis.  The green and white Stan Smith tennis shoes were the ONLY sneakers he wore when we were kids.

 

 

Stans are comfy.  Wish they were the green and white (non-Homer) version.  Like for game days.

How does this read Mr. Green? Is there a comma missing or am I jus not getting it??

 

Probably a comma after what would have been best. It's from legally blonde, after she got into Harvard law,  what like it's hard?   At least that's what my daughter told me. 😆 

 

In this case, it's senior year what like it's hard?

Considering MSU is a Nike school I’d go w/these.

... He should have put it in a podcast. 😉

Senior confidence from the young Green:  What? Like it's hard?

... I am always at least 2 hours behind so I can FF through commercials. I just have to remember to avoid the forums because someone invariably says "Congrats to X golfer" as if they read golf forums. 🙄  I know, I know I am in the minority on this subject, hence the avoid the forums comment. 

 

I do the same thing...with all sports.

I do that with all shows but sports. For some reason I have to watch sports while they happening!

Admittedly, I am watching the LLWS Championship live.  Heh.

... I do have to say it was a real head scratchers. Not that I agree but I certainly get boycotting or protesting. But burning what you already own after you paid Nike was pretty amusing. Especially since they could have donated the shirts, jerseys, shoes to underprivileged kids.

... I hear ya but just too many distractions for me. Nothing worse than watching a Diamondbacks game when they get a hit in the 9th building excitement and then the s-l-o-w walk to the mound, a brief discussion then motion to the bull pen for another pitcher. Or waiting for the replay booth in football. And the Pot calling the Kettle and all, bad commercials. Ironically I will stop FF for some commercials as they can be one of the few creative endeavors on TV these days but I have no interest in a ToyotaThon, McDonalds Qtr Pounder or any beer commercial.

I always have a “commercial show” loaded into the ‘last channel’ for such moments. But most of the time that show is in a commercial as well! 😜

Right now every other commercial during the LLWS is Chik-fil-a and it’s getting to me! 🤤

If I remember, I'll take some pictures of the coolest block of cars assembled every year. One solid block of Auburn's, Cord's and Duesenburgs.  The GM Futureliner was out yesterday.

Go test drive a 750HP Rousch Mustang and you might change your mind.😀

I’ve owned 2 Mustangs actually 😂 Not saying I hate em. Just always been more of a Chevy/Mopar guy. But we talking 60s/70 muscle cars. Modern iterations of any of ‘em jus don’t float my boat 🤷🏼‍♂️

Not a hater, have a few Nike apparel items.  More a case of Nike sneakers have never fit my feets all that good.  Even going up a full size, wide widths (sloppy), just didn't fit as well as others.  IIRC, once tried on those (or similar) and no go, especially for the asking price.

Def run small/narrow 

Only exception I’ve found is the Metcon line. Much wider toe box

@bscinstnct didn’t post a pic yesterday so he told me it was okay to post the one I have of him.

DMM approved me to submit on his behalf as well

... Never thought I would say this because I "thought" I knew what I was getting into when I moved to Phoenix. The last 3 summers were hot and pretty much what I expected. Probably missed 15 days due to the heat every summer. But this summer has just been insanely !HOT!  and I am guessing I have missed playing at least 40 days due to excessive heat. Played at 105* Friday and was happy to get it in before 113-113-115-115-111* then finally dropping to only 106* later this week. It is really trying my patience.
