I have no reason to watch his YouTube channel, and I'll never watch an LIV event. So, as Unk said, I'll see him 4x a year, he'll maybe contend in 1-2 of those majors every year or three, and that will be plenty of Bryson for me.
Wags is right. Bryson is a character. I disagree with him the move to Saudi golf has been good for him. He’s always had the social media stuff going on. His crew have included his TikTok and YouTube videographers for years, even when a PGA member. He got a ton of mainstream attention from the day he turned pro. Now, he’s another sellout propping up an autocratic regime under the pretense of growing the game of golf. When he first got to the tour, he had a big fanbase and then, well, he got more airtime and more time to talk. That’s when he starting grating on people and exposed himself as not some weird golf intellect, but just another meathead golfer. But I liked that meathead golfer because he was so outlandish. He’ll win another major. Probably. Because he is a great golfer

Tell me you’ve only visited the touristy place in Orlando without telling me you’ve only visited the touristy places.
But yeah, the airport is awful.
Well, I've driven all around Orlando and the surrounding area. Used to go there for work. I don't remember seeing anything there that made me say, "Wow, this is special. I gotta get back and see that again." But you're right; perhaps outside the touristy areas, there is not much objectionable, either. I'll probably go to Orlando again someday if my wife ever participates in a grandkids-to-Disney trip. I've already said that I'm willing to foot the bill but that I'll be playing golf and enjoying a beverage somewhere well away from theme parks. I've already been to Disney/Universal more than a person needs to go there, and have no plans to go again.

The less Bryson, the more likable he is. Not having him be visible except 4 weeks a year is probably the right amount of Bryson for both himself and the public.
For all the BS with LIV, I think its allowed him to be more himself outside of the PGA guardrails. His Youtube channel is great and has done wonders for his personal perception. I think its all helped a lot with his general demeanor and leaving the animosity he had with PGA management. Its a shame that it took leaving the PGA Tour to unlock that. People can still dislike him, and thats fine, but you can't say he's putting on a facade. He's absolutely an odd duck, but he doesn't pretend to be anything else.

This was rather where my head was. We also have a gasoline powered sedan that we could drive everywhere (and it has a relatively low amount of miles on it) and could acquire an Ariya at comparatively favorable terms. My wife, however, wants a Murano for long-distance travel.
Big question is whether Nissan will negotiate on the residual. Exactly the same car is available at multiple dealers for between $35,000 and $37,000 and the resid on mine is $42,000. If they negotiate, I'll probably keep the car I now have.
All, the reason EVs have become political is because some states, like California, are outlawing purchase and sale of new ICE vehicles. That was a political decision by the State of California. Period. We honestly are looking at it on an economic and convenience and need basis.
Yea. If your wife doesn't want to only have the sedan as the option for long distance travel, you'll likely have to keep your Murano. If the dealer wants to sell you the Murano, they'd be silly not to renegotiate. Do you think it was a political decision when lead-based paint or leaded pipes or leaded gasoline or asbestos were banned by the government ?

1. My personal advice to you would be to turn in your Murano at least end (or buy it out and trade it in depending on equity/market price) and lease an Ariya. Install a level 2 charger in your garage and plug in every night. Take your other ICE vehicle on the road trips

Don't talk to us, and don't talk about gubmint. Talk to your new right-wingnut pal, Elon. This is his baby.

Easily Hovland for me. Outside of struggling at the Masters this year, I think he has like 5 top 20s in his last 6 majors. Like 3-4 of those were top 10s. He's really damn good and is really close to breaking through and winning a couple IMO.
In other news, I know the feelings on him here are mixed, but amazing tournament image-wise for Dechambeau. I read 4-5 accounts of how awesome he was with fans and support staff all weekend and his gallery support seemed way stronger than in the past.

Congratulations on losing the title. Who, now, is the best player without a major? Hovland? Cantlay?
