@DublinOhio Hey @ODOT_Columbus when are you going to rebuild this exit with enough banking to solve these rollover issues. It’s a design flaw that is screaming for attention.

@JenniferSey @xx_xyathletics Good.
I wore Nike as a CIF state medalist.
I wore them as a D1 athlete.
I wore them as an adult until I looked behind the curtain.
Now I wear other brands on my feet, but only @xx_xyathletics for athletic wear.

Does anyone understand why @ChipotleTweets sells 700M bowls a year but tries to put the 10 inch bowl in a 7.5 inch wide bag?

@1stOhioBattery Including the stunning loss to the Islanders, the Jackets surrendered 4 goals in 159 seconds of consecutive play, which included two game winners. That HAS to be some dubious record. Ughh.

Fun fact: Today is the two-year anniversary of the last time a Big Ten opponent was called for holding against Ohio State.

The Buckeyes have played 17 Big Ten games since in which their opponents apparently haven’t held a single time.

As I watch @rydercup and listen on @SiriusXMPGATOUR, I thought I’d share this. I recently had a young man at work ask me how to get started and learn the game of golf. What did I miss with this response?

1.Find a teacher/coach and take lessons.  Most golf courses have a PGA Teaching Professional on staff, schedule a lesson - don’t be intimidated they love teaching the game.  Many golf stores (Golf Galaxy, PGA Superstore) also have teachers and can provide lessons.  Your goal here is to learn the fundamentals (grip, stance, body positioning, rotation, weight distribution) correctly from the start.  Most of us spend a lifetime trying to undo bad habits, if you never create any you will be much farther ahead.

2.Get starter set of clubs. Golf is not a cheap sport but you don't need a $1,500 set of brand new clubs as a beginner.  Locate a free/low cost hand me down set, buy a used set at Play it Again or on-line, or get a basic set at a big box retailer.  I would do step #1 first, let the pro give you tips on clubs before you buy any.

3.Practice.  All the golf stores have indoor hitting bays or you can go to a driving range.  Top Golf is another option but not an inexpensive one.  Develop some level of consistency at the range, focusing on the fundamentals. Don't try to kill the ball, just swing properly and see the ball go straight.  There are many skills to master, each needs dedicated practice reps.

4.Learn the rules of golf, proper etiquette and proper attire.  Golf is an honorable game, you call "fouls" on yourself. Don't be the guy to miss-count strokes or cheat the game, take your 10 on a hole like a man - because you'll have them and worse.  Now that said, when you are learning don't handicap yourself with ridiculous lies or repeated shots over a hazard.  But don't relocate your ball 3 times on a hole and then write down Par for your score.         
https://t.co/rfNy8AJEVf Golf.  Start with an executive course (short holes), easier tracks, or municipal courses.  Generally the cost of a round will be your guide. Play a scramble format with more experienced golfers, to keep the pace of play moving.  As you get better then move on to stroke play.  Consider walking instead of taking a cart, it's part of the game and why they walk on the PGA tour. 

https://t.co/FMI9x0jnCd Patient.  Golf is difficult and the slightest turn of the club will result in an off target shot.  It takes massive repetition to build muscle memory and consistency.  But, golf is one of the few lifetime sporting activities, so it is rewarding and can be played into your old age. Good luck.

🚨 BREAKING: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis calls on Elon Musk to put his resources toward a BALANCED BUDGET and TERM LIMITS FOR CONGRESS amendment, says that would be FAR more successful than a new political party.

"You need to do a BALANCED BUDGET amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and you can do that through the states. You can do it through Article 5. We've got 28 states that have approved this! There's another four or five that are on the docket. Once you hit 34, then you write an amendment and then the states are able to ratify that."

"If @ElonMusk wanted to weigh in on that and work on those state legislatures, he would have a MONUMENTAL impact doing this."

"And we also need term limits for members of Congress. So you can do both of those things."

"When you do another party, especially if you're running on some of the issues that he talks about. that would end up. if he funds Senate candidates and House candidates in competitive races, that would likely end up meaning the Democrats would win all the competitive Senate and House races."

"We do have a problem in the Republican Party with these DC congressmen, they always run saying there's out of control spending and they're going to spend less and they never do it."

"@ElonMusk was doing DOGE and a lot of Congress didn't want anything to do with actually adopting the DOGE cuts!"

"The way you do that is expose that in a primary and show that there's another way forward."

"Honestly, if you're concerned about the debt, I wouldn't even worry about that because I don't think just electing a few better people is gonna change your trajectory."

"The incentives in Washington are going to lead to these outcomes really regardless of the outcome of elections at this point."

There are so many great players to name and so much history that I could've spent an hour opening this thing.
