  1. Ha! Why does she not like him? Dude is awesome!
  2. That's strange. The Ducks Instagram page says he's starting.
  3. I'm going, too. I can't wait to see our future goaltender in net, live.
  4. His lines are great on the way back, but at impact there is a ton of hand and wrist action. To me that screams timing and consistency issues. Plus, he loses contact with the ground with his left foot. I remember he said he has a top 5 swing on tour. Backswing, maybe. Downswing, not so much.
  5. Look at last night's post game interviews for the NCAA championship. No one can say those guys are students, first, and athletes second. Their grammar made a 1st grade English teacher cringe, let alone a college professor.
  6. This is exactly it. I graduated in 2011 and never once experienced any problems with students. The real problems came on Halloween and other larger parties when random people from LA and other parts of California came to visit. That's when the true idiots came out.
  7. Why? It's a great school with nobel laureate professors. I really enjoyed my time there, but also found the curriculum to be extremely competitive with other top rated schools in California.
  8. Hiller gave up two soft goals. I used to love him, but he's completely soured on me.
  9. What happens if the player gets injured and loses his scholarship?
  10. I always miss these threads before they're deleted. Makes me smile I finally got to see one.
  11. This post was edited? Where is the English cop when you need him?
  12. And just as I say that he gives up a soft goal. Ducks are getting demolished.
  13. Andersen deserves it. I think he's been better than Hiller all year.
  14. I'll jump in here really quickly. When I was being recruited for golf the school I eventually ended up asked what major I was interested in. I told the coach meteorology. He looked straight at me and told me, "You're not majoring in meteorology; it's too difficult. I'd look in to communications or business." I'm sure I could have still majored in meteorology, but I was too nervous to do so as a freshman on the team. My point to the story is that I agree, somewhat, with what Mancini is saying. Yes, these athletes may be getting scholarships, but I doubt all of them are choosing that they like or that will help them get a job in the future.
  15. Flew from LAX to Hong Kong with a two hour layover and then hopped on a plane to Jakarta for another five hours. The five hour flight was miserable, much worse than the flight to hong kong
  16. I have a story that I though I'd share that happened this past weekend. My friends and I went out to the bars in Newport. We always have a designated driver who doesn't have a single drink, and rotate accordingly as each weekend goes by. My "lucky" friend was pulled over on the 55 by the CHP. He pulled my friend, the driver, out of the car and "questioned" him. His questions began with how much my friend had to drink to which my friend replied, "none." He asked it again and told my friend not to lie this time. My friend answered exactly the same. The cop then threatened my friend with jail if he "kept this up." Finally, my friend asked for a breathalyzer test. The cop was furious and got into his face and yelled at him, "are you telling me how to do my job?" After another 15 minutes the cop along with his three friends (back up that came) left us to go home. I couldn't believe it. They were trying to essentially force my friend to admit to drinking even though he didn't. Unbelievable.
  17. I'm fairly certain Nate was talking about teams this year.
  18. My friend was lucky enough to get paired with Bubba and Adam Scott on Saturday last year at the US Open. He said both guys were extremely nice. Also said that Bubba was kinda quirky but really funny.
  19. I like what Johnny miller said, for once, about the top 5 comment. Something to the effect of go out there and do it before you call yourself a top 5 player. I'm sure Reed's comments will run some of the pros the wrong way.
