@bankertobuilder This is close. Still need to have 2 devoted spaces to Curbside Pickup, just so no one will use them.

Whoever thought this was the best way to hang toilet paper should face international crimes.

@LisaMCornwell @acaseofthegolf1 @Chevron_Golf With the amount of rain we’ve had in Houston, I think firm and fast may be out the window.

When @Apple designs its next iteration of Air Pods, could the engineers maybe uninstall what must be microscopic springs that send these things launching across the room when they slip from my bumbling fingers? #QualityControl

@SCNext @AlabamaMBB @PaulBiancardi @SPIREHoops @tarris_bouie4 But can he knock down a 3 in the 2nd half of the 3rd round tourney game?

@DrNeilStone @grok When was this video recorded and released?

@Teslaconomics No wheels? Hovercraft?

It’s almost like the @NBA has lost sight of its future - kids like mine who love basketball. For Xmas, surprised boys with @dallasmavs vs @memgrizz tix. They love @JaMorant and couldn’t wait to watch Cooper Flagg. Bought tix in December, and made the drive from Hou for a father/sons trip today.

We’re going to the game in an hour to watch backups. My oldest son (12) just told me he wishes we would have stayed home and played golf tmrw morning.

I get injuries, and it’s just bad luck. I also get tanking for the future. But dang, my boys are legitimately bummed, so now I am, too. We’ll find a way to have fun because we’re together. But the NBA is about stars, except when they aren’t on the court. @mcuban

I mean Tiger in ‘19 - maybe. But this is next level. Can’t believe it’s really him. I had my 9 yr old up late watching, trying to explain who @AnthonyKim_Golf was and what an amazing story this is. So glad I got to see it.

@GovernorVA Nutrea. It’s what’s for dinner.

As a journalist & media owner for 25+ years, I got a pretty good look at the erosion of media trust. Not sure I can find a better example of why it has happened than this article from @ESPN & @RobDawsonESPN on @ManUtd co-owner Jim Ratcliffe’s immigration comments: https://t.co/vo07NzYPKp

No honest person can read this and say it’s journalism (where the creed was once that we tell as many sides of the story and let the reader decide). It's a one-sided pile-on with quotes from Starmer, Muslim Supporters Club, Supporters Trust, & Kick It Out all bashing him as "offensive" & "disgraceful." Seriously, read it and tell me I'm wrong.

Zero effort to explore the other side: No data on UK's rising immigration numbers, economic strains, or unchecked migration concerns. No outreach to Ratcliffe or a spokesperson for context.

This isn't reporting. It's activism disguised as news, and it’s designed to fuel anger instead of dialogue. Even one paragraph on (legitimate) worries would have sufficed. It’s why people like @mtaibbi @bariweiss @ClayTravis keep sounding the alarm on what seems like media bias. It's something @KonstantinKisin talks about a lot in the UK.

Not that “journalists” want to do better, but news stories are supposed to be written FOR the reader; not TO them.

@NUCLRGOLF @TrackingKoepka The putter won't fix that loop he's got in that stroke. He takes it back inside and then almost comes over the top. Watch that first putt he pulls.

[Jonathan McElvy @mcelvy]

Interesting the @wapo cutbacks happen and the @PittsburghPG owners announce they’ve lost $350 million and can’t do it anymore. A lot of (on point) love for good journalists and news deserts, but the model is broken and the hope that public outrage and moral social media posts can fix it just isn’t the case.

No matter how philanthropic someone might be, there has to be a path forward. Bezos hasn’t found it and that guy turned a bookstore into a conglomerate.

I remember when @BKoepka left @PGATOUR and they said “no big deal.” And then he comes back to PGA and he’s featured group, constant coverage, interviewed by Jim & Amanda and given the royal treatment. So not a big deal leaving but biggest story out of Rose coming back? Checks out. @flushingitgolf @chambleebrandel @Daniel_Rapaport

@ClubProGuy Any good tales from your Tour days of an opponent putting up this much of a fight in a playoff?

[Jonathan McElvy @mcelvy]

@ClayTravis Well, at least he listens to his head coach on something.

@EnduranceAgency @Mike_kim714 @ringer @BillSimmons @LegsESPN Ok, don’t take my word for it (it’s not a personal theory that will cost me sleep). Shaq talked about it a lot. So did Ray Allen:
