the S+G social thread vers. NFL offseason = S+G offseason

had the shanks for two weeks couldn't play golf, didn't even want to think about it

just returned from the range and i'm back, it's times like this i believe in faith
 
i'm hitting the ball better than i have in a couple of years right now.

all i do in my free time is play golf.

i'm addicted as fuck.
 
starring down your well stuck shot from 175 yards out, all over the flag, pleading for it to be right

of all the highs you can achieve from playing golf, that's my favorite one, even if i'm laying 5 on a par 4
 
^ nice. I would be interested to watch one of those shitty court shows, for once

mang, I hate how dead my forum is during these dog days of the summer. comparing, say, baseball season to football season truly is leaps and bounds of a difference. it's annoying during the downtime, but it really makes S+G feel like a living, breathing, organic type of thing. and that's just one of the reasons as to why I will die with this forum

yeah October is seriously the best month for sports. NFL is a few weeks in and playoff baseball at the same is great

But the Olympics are starting soon, should we just talk about it in here or start a 2012 London thread call me maybe?

this is just the social thread for chit-chat and bullshit... and apparently the polo-shirt-hippies's golf thread, in the summer. so yeah, any real topic should have its own thread

yeah, I remember that. condolences CS

summer sports are fan, but while sports like frisbee golf or drawn-out-and-outdated baseball games are fun in their own right, the summer sports season simply lacks the gravitas of say football, or even basketball season...

and I can't believe I haven't visited the ATL again. I am so busy when it comes to work and drumming. been stepping up my game and giving tons of drum lessons and recording 10-20 second songs to sell thru a third party company.... I would like to drive down there and visit soon...
 
I would curl up and die quickly if I watched just 1 or 2 sports. I have 2 weeks out of 52 to deal with when there's no sports on, usually in July but its been busy this month and now the Olympics is on so here's to the next 50 weeks of drinking myself silly and glorious sports. Middle of August onwards gets busy as fuck
 
Amen Subaru.

Thats what happens when you follow sports no one else in the world watches. Rugby starts in February for me with the Super comp then swings into the Internationals around August before finally ending in November with the European Spring Tours by the Southern Hemisphere. There is a nice little overlap when the Cricket starts in Australia (the Gabba Test is usually the first of my summer and my home town drink fest) but there is usually an Ashes series every other year in June or if I'm lucky a Caribbean trip during March/April.

If I'm really unlucky there is one weekend in October after the NRL Grand final and before the 4 Nations Test series when there is only motorsport on tele, I usually take the family on a picnic that weekend and get shitfaced playing backyard cricket instead.... so that's kind of like real sport if you drunkenly commentate every delivery. Euro, World Cups every alternative 2 years, the odd Winter /Summer Olympics thrown in mid seasons and there really is no excuse to be a whiney bitch about it. God bess P2P.........
 
Baseball and golf get me through to football season. Then college basketball starts. I'm really just an alcoholic and need an excuse to pound beer all year.
 
it's been over a month since i've played golf somewhat seriously, i look back at my enthusiastic posts from back in april/june and curl up with my dog and cry

i blew the engine in my '99 camary last weekend, gonna be a good $2800, so yeah bye bye spending money

i think i'll make a strong push during september/october
 
cause that takes too much time, i need a car asap, and the car is in really good shape besides the suicidal engine

i don't want to buy a new car only to have it shit the bed in 4 months

only thing that i hate my self for is that i could have collected an extra 2,500 from unemployment benefits during the past 6 months but didn't cause i don't agree with abusing the gov't that way, i did end up collecting 2k, much of which is going into car repair....i started working right after my previous job, just under the table....i got put on the books last week

i don't make enough money to take those risks or spend more than 3k on a car

even if i did earn bank still don't think i'd ever spend more than 5k for a car, i'm cool and confident with who i am, i don't need some kewl car to prove it to the world yo

pb spent 3k on a used honda civic that lasted for almost a decade, then we junked it because the repairs ran up to 3k, so then we bought a car from CS' neighbor for 500 dollars, totally fine with junking that in a year and buying another 500 dollar car when that dies.
 
I spent $2600 on a 97 civic about a year and a half a go and its worked very well so far. If you're buying older cars i recommend honda, toyota and nissan. Those companies made the best cars in that era, especially honda. Mine still gets 30 miles per gallon in the city.
 
Yeah I wouldnt want to drive around constantly feeling like I was gonna break down. I got a 00 Maxima its pretty cool I guess
