Phil probably made $40 million in endorsements in the year after his recent PGA win. The top golfers make tons in endorsements and commercials. According to Forbes, Mickelson was 29th on the list of the world's highest-paid athletes during the 2020-2021 season, amassing around $40 million in...

Yes, after a couple of delays with finding tilt wash mechanisms for both sashes and salespeople who could get us some answers we just bought 3 of our windows to see how they fit, then we will buy the rest. Andersen 400 Series Woodwright designs bought thru a local lumber yard and they did the...

I am sort of a minimalist as well as a utilitarian. I do not need fancy, expensive cars or clothes, even back when I wore a suit and tie to work. I have nice lower cost, economical mileage cars because of the utility that they get me from here to there, they ride well and are comfortable...

Good points. The housing and car purchases are the two biggest of course for families. In the late '90s to 2002 I worked with someone whose dad laid carpet and tile etc. She said her dad told her that even during those years as the go-go 90's boom went bust her dad would go into big Des...

Covid threw a who lot of bad shit at us and we are having issues getting back to a regular life. Shut in, got stimulus money, but a lot of businesses shut down and supply chain issues have way more money chasing scarce goods, prices and inflation higher, a slow Fed to try to cool off the price...

The usual 'sell high' at a huge volume by big money, which then scares other investors to sell and preserve some gains, and then when the price drops, the big money is the first in to 'buy low'. Which is it? Or a real bear market where stock owners are scared of the economy.

Yep, I know what sportswashing is but it also seems to be dirty money flowing through a lot of hands. The way the Saudis treat women and kill people willy nilly to keep their power just makes it feel very dirty. Their money and ruthlessness with their people is the only reason they have a...

Yeah, there is hardly any college athletic news ever out of Alaska. I remember in Mr. Davis's first season when the hawks wen to play in Anchorage and beat duke or N Carolina up there and won the tourney, that opened my eyes to what that team might do. But before that I didnt even know they had...

Right now, from what I have read and heard, the LIV tour is a set number of players who will play every event. That might change but as they travel around it might look more like a barnstorming string of events with no big events like majors. The LIV doesnt have a TV or streaming contract...

I get some of your points. The casual golf fan who is a viewer can be a bandwagoner like many were when Tiger was up and coming, established and winning all the time. Those fans went for a winner. From what I understand the LIV Saudi tourney is a set number of players at every event so it is...

That is a huge amount of money but Tiger doesnt need the money. The tour gave him everything, I think he still wants to try to win majors, at least one more major, he wants to win on the PGA tour rather than some diluted tour where the marshalls and rules people walking the course wear some...

Looks like pro Lacrosse on espn right now. decent sized crowd.

You do know that Boise State is in Idaho dont you? Not that Boise St is P5 but they have been good for a lot of years and really good when Petersen, iirc, and his successor was there. Not a lot of people in Idaho and they like to shoot at things maybe instead of following college sports. I am...

That is a pretty strong lineup. Long road trips down to florida. Cincy and West Virginia will make a good rivalry geographically

I would say maybe just one from the arc as PM was a little shaky at times toward the end of the season. But I hope PM just lights it up this year

Nice. I didnt read the SI article but I assume Matt has been coaching. He was a very good player and maybe has some good ideas to help Iowa's defense too even though he was known for his scoring.

Steve Rattner, and economics and finance guy, had his charts on tv this AM and the data shows the story of big oil cutting oil production at the start of covid, OPEC or saudi's have cut production, there is a shortage of crude. That is where the cause of inflation of gas prices lies, not caused...

Good points but I think you/we need to add Wisky to the rivals list that KF needs to start beating again at a regular rate, at least beat them at home and steal a game once in a while in Madison like in 2015 and 2009. And KF needs to be putting the hammer on jNW way more often. The loss in...

Yep, the russians are crawling, they are obliterating towns and cities, and then they move in to control a bunch of rubble. Now that is what I call a good plan which is taking over areas of debris that they have to rebuild in order to use.

Well if you read the title of the thread it basically says a couple of items hardly anyone talks about or thinks about or knows about. In your list there are many that are talked about, unlimited stimulus yes because that puts a bunch of extra money and therefore demand into the economy and...
