just lost a game holding Iowa to 0/10 on 3rd downs, < 50 yards rushing, had the ball for 20 more minutes, and had double the amount of yards on offense.

So that’s a new one.

I love that the @NFL is “supposedly” all about player safety and preventing concussions but yet they don’t enforce the mouth piece rule which is statistically proven to lower concussion rates #allforshow #nfl #concussions #rogergoodell

[The Market Hustle @themarkethustle]

Many people thought 2023 would be the next great depression and "played it safe" by sitting in cash.

While many were busy with predictions, others made moves.

The market since Jan 1st:
Nasdaq 100: +47% 🟢
S&P 500: +20% 🟢

Lesson: You don't get rich sitting on the sidelines.

Howard also wanted to kick Nebraska out of the Big Ten for advocating to play football in 2020.

“I would demand a public apology from Nebraska," Howard said in 2020, “and if I’m Kevin Warren, I’m working on a way to get their ass out of the Big Ten. They ain’t Notre Dame, baby. They don’t have that cachet.”

It was a great day on the golf course yesterday for the Washed Up Open. It’s awesome having great relationships with some great people.

Some of my favorite Tiger stats.

Enjoy.

------------

Tiger from 1999 to 2009:

Percent of events he won:
➡️34%

Percent of events he finished 9th or worse:
➡️32%

Over a 10-year stretch, Tiger was more likely to win than finish 9th or worse.

------------

Tiger had a 10 year stretch (1999 to 2009) where he finished in the top three in 53% of his starts.

------------

Tiger in 2000 season:

▶️2nd in Distance off-the-tee
▶️Hit 71.2% of fairways

Pretty good.

------------

From 1999 to 2004 Tiger had a 100 tournament stretch with:

▶️33 wins
▶️61 top 5s
▶️70 top 10s

-----------

Tiger was how good in 2000?

Take the 2022 leader in each strokes gained category:

Off-the-tee: Rahm (1.03)
Approach: Zalatoris (1.06)
Around-the-green: Kuchar (0.52)
Putting: Herbert (0.85)

Add them up = 3.46 per round.

In 2000 Tiger gained 3.83 per round.

------------

Tiger Woods won 24 times in a 38-month stretch.

------------

Since 1980 (as far back as the stats go) the only player ever to hit more than 75% greens in regulation in a season?

Tiger Woods in 2000.
(75.15%)

-------------

Tiger in 2000:

He gained 5+ strokes in 31.6% of his rounds.

------------

Tiger's career win-rate as a pro:
▶️23%

Chances the typical PGA Tour pro makes a 15-foot putt:
▶️22%

-----------

Tiger had 32-round stretch in 2006/2007 where he beat the field by an average of 4.7 shots per round.

Tiger was nearly 5 shots better than the average tour player. 🤯

He would have needed to spot them 19 shots over 4 rounds to make it "fair"!

------------

In the 2000 season Tiger finished in the top five 17 out of 20 events. His worst finish that season was 23rd.

-------------

If you only counted the money Tiger won at:
▶️Firestone
▶️Augusta
▶️Torrey Pines
▶️Bay Hill

It would be $36.9 million.

That alone puts him 28th on the career money list.

-------------

Tiger had a stretch where he won 23 times in 50 events.
▶️Win rate of 46% 🤯

-------------

In 2000 season, Tiger played 76 rounds.

He shot (or tied) the lowest round of the day 21% of the time.

He shot (or tied) one of the five lowest rounds of the day 53% of the time.

The uncertainty of sports is stress, but the uncertainty is joy. Without it we are just watching a movie on repeat. The highs and lows are a package deal. As a coach, the heartbreak is worth it all if you help one person be better. At sports, at life. No risk, no courage.

@HuskerWrestling @silas_allred Did Silas choose bottom or neutral to start the 3rd?

@daverichard Sounds like what you wrote and what you meant were 2 different things. Do better!

[Russell Walton @treetrunks44]

@daverichard I would agree with that statement 100%. You said that none of them are worth that. You should have said “a lot of risk in case they don’t turn out” or “I don’t think they turn out to be worth anything” then give your reasoning why they won’t turn out

@CalvinRidley1 @PlayersTribune Fan for life now @CalvinRidley1 thanks for being transparent and adding to the game we all love!
