  • I was wait-listed to get into college, had I not got in, I would have been upset, had I not gotten in because of BS like this, I would have been really pissed!
    Most of these kids are probably underqualified for these schools, which brings down their quality of education offered, and worse, it leaves out otherwise qualified kids. Entrance should be based on grades, PSAT scores, and interviews, not bribes.

  • Why do you think the Dems don't want a border wall, more Mexicans in, more will ultimately vote for democratic candidates. It's like Mayor LaGuardia bring the Puerto Ricans in in droves in the last century to boost the dem voting.

    • Watching the replay of that play, there was a referee on the sideline watching, you can't tell me that he didn't see it, as far as I'm concerned, this was not just human error.

    • It must be the price point, I can't imagine anyone buying a set of iron , sight unseen for between $400 and $1,000.If you look, most single club infommercials never are priced above $200, usually around $100. Every one I've gotten fished into was crap, starting with the Perfect clubs up to Aaron's assortment of junk.

      • One of my backweights fell out of my Ping 2G 9 iron, I filled it with JB Weld and painted it black. Has held great for 3 yrs now.

        • My rule of thumb:
          Dino oil = every 3k
          Full syn = every 5k

        • sdandrea1 The Ping Eye 2's will play much better with new shafts, the originals are like rebar, try something in a softer R flex. I'm hereby formally withdrawing my offer of $60 for your 400's, now that I realize they will be on the market shortly. I can just as easily play lousy golf with mt G2's.

          • The issue becomes one of nurture vs. nature. My BIL and his wife adopted a child from Texas who turned out to be a nightmare. At 16 she became pregnant, and at 21 she died from a drug overdose. My BIL adopted her illegitimate child and raised him until he went into the Marines at 19. I can't begin to tell you the number of fights and police calls they had with this kid, and his disobedience in general.

            They weren't the best parents, but they didn't deserve these two kids. I feel that without strong parenting skills, nature will prevail over nurture.

          • That certainly ain't a PING bag any more. It's only the G400 irons. Everything else is everything else. You know you want to sell me those 400's, sleeep, sleeep.....

          • My only complaint with components is the quality of their paint jobs, most chip like crazy

            • Here in Hilton Head, SC wee don't play when it drops below 50*, our thinking is -we have so many nice days, why play on a shitty day...

            • Here's what I take from this thread:
              1. You can easily tell the Blues from the Reds
              2. CNN and Fox both put their own self-serving spin on the news to serve their viewers
              3. Politics has become very racist, not from skin color or national origin, but from political affiliations
              4. Whatever happened to being Americans first?
              5. I'm glad I'm an independent voter, vote the person ,not the party.

              • Bud of mine bought the Sqaure to Square chipper online. I tried it and it feels like the face is dead, it's in his barrel, as he can't control his distances. I tried the DTG model, and face is just way too hot. Prefer the 7-9 irons now.

              • sdandrea1 Been on HHI for 18 years, some pretty reasonable golf to be had, especially if you stay away from the touristy courses. Recently bought a golf cottage at Reynolds Plantation in GA, the golf there is wonderful, but very expensive. Can't have everything....

              • sdandrea1 Steve-I really enjoy reading your threads, they're real, honest, and give us all insight into the man you are. You're about 10 years younger than me, so it will be interesting for me to see how you fare as you age. I find that distance goes first, and then stamina, after about 14 holes, I am shot and done, and literally drag myself thru the last 4-5 holes. Unfortunately, none of my buds like to play just 9 holes, so I'm stuck with 18. Keep posting, I'm looking forward to them. PS- the offer is up to $24. CASH
