@JeremyMonjo What’s great is if they made a show about the production of Luck it would hit all the same beats just with the Mann/Milch feud, Milch’s mounting gambling debts and the dead horses.
@jailedamanda Especially when most of these people know there are constantly 50% of sales at Criterion and you could get it for $300 with a modicum of patience.
@JonesOnTheNBA The only well liked challenge system as far as I can tell is ABS which has a big advantage of immediacy of the call, but another big advantage is that the reviews have to be player initiated immediately after the play happened which would be a good lesson for other leagues.
@capybaroness This is completely true (except in Edge of Extinction which allowed someone to become friends with the jury while everyone else had to vote them out).
The reason is because while this makes it look like it’s been close it hasn’t been.
US Open average winning score: 274.9 strokes / -6.7
PGA: 270.9 / - 11.1
There’s been a few years where the PGA had high winning scores in there but the US Open is a consistently “tougher test”
Higher winning score (more strokes) between U.S. Open and PGA Championship over the last 10 years.

It's intriguing to me that the U.S. Open has maintained an identity as the "you have to be tough to win this major" major when the PGA has been just as hard -- if not harder at times -- over the last decade.
@xenocryptsite@KooHo_jin I love that every few months you have a meltdown over how bad TROS was, and honestly it's completely deserved each time, it's truly that shockingly bad.
Reminder that the simmering disdain guys like Justin Thomas feel for amateur golfers is a major factor in the PGA Tour's pushback against equipment regulation.
Anyway, would love to see the Masters, U.S. Open, and Open just institute the rollback and dare the Tour to hold out.
