Lee Trevino was hilarious! One of my favorites..
And yes, watching the pros in person, all you can see are perfect swings and perfect ball striking... Truly amazing!
OK, out VEDU with only a $200 loss...wow
Lee was a beauty for sure
anyone figure out MSPR
The funnest golfer I ever saw was Lee Trevino here in Greensboro, NC. He really enjoyed interacting with the fans.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Trevino#Humor
The year my niece graduated from Wake Forest Arnold Palmer gave the commencement speech. His biggest regret was leaving Wake early and turning pro. Throughout his career he always remebered Wake and supported the school.
My favorite golfer to watch was Julius Boros. He'd walk right up and hit the ball. You never saw him praying over a putt either the way the pros do today. Sergio took a lot of grief for that at the USGA major in NY a couple of years ago. Fans started yelling at him to hit the ball already. He figured it out after that.
MY brother has played in a bunch of pro ams and he also says their ball striking is just sick. Little 170 pound guys with chicken arms smashing the ball 300 for a joke. He even played a round with Daly - A Saturday after the missed cut and after a party at his travel home until 3 am LOL.
I think there is a program of some sort where pros make themselves available for a fee - IE a guy wants to bring a pro out with some clients on a Saturday they pay the fee. Not sure if its official or not - good ide to allow some guys to cover a few expenses. WE had a 7 am today but decided to do some work. I have a new client who is a bit needy
I shot 55...got rained out on # 15 tee! Also I have covid! Walked and stayed away from everyone....I couldn't take a 6th day at home bored out of my head! Playing again tomorrow.
They are awesome aren't they? I had the chance to see Nicklaus up close for several holes when his son was at UNC and Jack came to play in some fundraiser in Chapel Hill at the UNC course. Still during the wooden clubs and rubber band ball days. I was young then, maybe around 30 and he was probably 40-42. He hit the driver I swear 60 yard past where I normally hit mine, He was hitting it 310 with that old equipment. I was around 250-260. I was in awe! We watched him for about 4-5 holes, then left to go play, lol.
I shot 73 today - ( 3 over) Those guys are 1000x better than me. I was up close with Woodland, Weir, Immelman, Hadwin and Kuchar ( asshole) 6 or 7 years ago. The ball striking still sits with me. Especially woodland - The power. I was like a kid in awe. I was beyond impressed. It was a exhibition 2 foursomes a few days ahead of a web.com event
All those years in Toronto I was always too busy to go to the Canadian open. Only been to one day of a golf tourney at Masters but frankly that day with those guys above was amazing.
I would have to play my ass off to break 100 at the PGA course from those tees.
Next year MY florida trip may hook up with the Valspar. Only problem is - Golf is not the greatest spectator sport - live in person.
I took my boys to the PGA Sat and Sun, Justin Thomas wins in a playoff! It was a great time!
Those pros swing just like me......
Except for a few things....
They hit it longer, they putt better, they chip better, they drive better, etc etc etc
I didn't think you would be that insane. lol.
sorry, repled about VEDU....wrong post!
Still waiting and watching here at 1.85...
I can't believe this POS is still trading.
Didi Shareholders Vote to Delist From NYSE in Wake of China's Tech Crackdown
(Bloomberg) -- Didi Global Inc. secured the blessing of shareholders to delist from the New York stock exchange, capping an 11-month ordeal that wiped out around $70 billion of its market value and turned the ride-hailing giant into a symbol of China’s tech crackdown.

I'm not sure if I'm the one to ask about VEDU... I lost a few bucks when I bought it at 3.00.. ha
Hopefully, the answer was no. Can't believe this fell below $2. I doubled down at $2.06 this morning. $VEDU
VEDU...late to the party. Should I be interested here at 2.18?
VEDU - In at 3.00. I can't; help it! And I can't believe I waited this long... ha
People thinking it would go to $40, lol.
under three - who the heck was buying this in the upper 20's on Tuesday?
Plenty of circuit breakers on the way up, nothing on the way down. Hate it.
Hopefully, it can get back to that area. It moves up and down pretty easily.
I bought some at 3.86 so you are in better shape. I flipped it yesterday for a gain from the 6's to the 7's. Now it is half that price.
Bought some at $3.60. Still too high, lol.

Thanks!!! lol You can't trade in this market.
Happy belated Mother's Day. Take today off too.
Anything down today? lmao
Yep, I bought 2 yesterday for my grandkid. You can buy up to 10k per person - each spouse has to have an account - then you can buy another 5k paper bond with tax return money. This is counted as a calendar year - so if you bought 10k in Dec you can buy another 10k now. But you can't sell it for one year. If you sell it after a year, the last three months interest get forfeited (only if sold within the first 5 years). Also, there is NO fixed rate on these. So basically, whatever the inflation rate is you get - no extras. So the rate is changed twice a year - nov and may. If inflation goes all the way down in a few years you are only getting whatever the inflation rate is at the time. In contrast to the older I bonds that also had a fixed rate attached. So any I bonds I bought with a fixed rate also have that rate added to the current rate they are giving now.
Nearly risk-free I bonds to deliver a record 9.62% interest for the next six months

KEY POINTS
I bonds, an inflation-protected and nearly risk-free investment, will pay 9.62% through October 2022, the U.S. Department of the Treasury announced Monday.
“It’s a milestone for I bonds,” said Ken Tumin, founder and editor of DepositAccounts.com.
However, there are purchase limits, you can’t tap the money for one year and there’s a penalty for selling within five years.

TDOC - Bouncing a bit.... Bot some calls on your mention last week... Gooooood!
Guy plays golf every Saturday rain or shine. One particular Saturday, it's storming... thunder, lightening, even some hail. He gets up at the 6am alarm, gets dressed for golf, kisses his wife goodbye in the bed and hurries out the door. On the way he decides, this is crazy, no way can I play in this weather, so he turns around and heads back home. He gets there, drys off, changes back into his bedclothes and slips back into bed beside his wife and cuddles up behind her. He mutters something about the terrible weather and she replies..."I know. Can you believe my husband is playing golf in this weather?"
Four guys golfing, they are in the 18th hole, look out in the street and notice a funeral procession going by, one of the guys stops, takes his hat off and bows his head as the procession goes by…
One of the other guys say, “wow, that was nice, did you know the person?”
The golfer puts his hat back on his head and putts his ball and says, “yes she was a great wife for 30 years”
nflx and pypl both having great bounces today
the following was written by the founding moderator of this board,harbs
for me, the most profitable and consistent trades i make on a daily basis are the bounce trades...typically intra-day bounce plays..and the harder and longer they fall, the higher they bounce...
anything that is crashing down and belongs on watch belongs here...bb's, pinks, big board stocks - all of 'em...we run scans all day long - looking for those dropping at least 15-20%, or a stock that has been beaten down for days or weeks straight and finally turns up, a reversal of sorts..
ideally i'd like this to just be a thread where we can post a ticker during the day and not much more needs to be said...any bad news or anything causing the tank would be helpful, though...
this is not a long term thread, a break-out thread, an accumulation thread, a dd thread...let's nail the bottoms..
THIS IS FOR BOUNCES ONLY...(and reverse bounces - shorting)
the timid and faint of heart need not apply...
ps - i appreciate all of you that make your calls real time...as you can see, that is what i try and do ( sometimes i'll even post where my bid is, before i'm filled, or may never get filled )..bottom line is protect and build your own accounts, but if you have the time it's nice..( obviously, when you're flipping a naz 20 times in a day, it might not make a lot of sense to post all the trades )
and i appreciate the calls real-time because that helps people make money - it's not to say that anyone should buy or sell when i or you do, but heck, what good is it to tell us after the fact..how many times does a stock close up 1,000% and the supposed guru posts after hours -"oh, btw, i loaded the boat on xyz this am - made bank" hmmm, thanks..
ok, one other trade..when a stock shoots up like crazy, i like to call them "naz-crackers" lol..well we try and short those for the reverse bounce...day 1 of huge volume always scary to short into unless it's just an over done momo play...but days 2 and 3 are usually the best spot..
