I could potentially start one Tuesday...

I do like that about the course.

Paging HOAT or VtNerf! (Nerf is probably ⛳️).

Thanks for participating Lieutenant! Please keep answering any straggling questions!

Especially now that a conference championship game is the top 2 teams, not a weakling from the other division.

I recall someone in the athletic department had Dell's shot maps and figured an extra 800-900 or so points from 3 pt range. He had a low arching shot that was amazingly accurate. He would go for stretchs dominating the court.

Just saw this on Mo-Town. Pretty awesome they are doing a full restore. The inside architecture on this is classic.

Havana is a decent budget rum. Don't get me wrong I like it, have a few bottles of it at home, but if you like rum then you need to get into the premiums. Bumbu, depending on the year, can be quite good.

My favorite is Flor de Cana. Any age. Really good.

But here is a good list of some to try both in the premium and mid tier.
Premium:
Ron Zacapa
Mount Gay
Flor de Cana
Skeldon
Brugal
Plantation
Diplimatico
Enmore
Demerara
Savanna
Don Papa
Facundo Paraiso

Mid:
Merser
Ron Anejo Carupano
Old Monk
Siddiqui
Dom Tapparo
Kraken
Ron del Barrilto
Rhum JM
Botran
Ron Abuelo
Santa Teresa
Cruzan

White rum is not my favorite but I had some Copalli Single Estate which was very good. Typically I mix white rum though.

Living mostly outside the US I don't get to try a lot of USA Rums but I hear some great things about a few:
KoHanna Kea
Humboldt
Bayou
Montanya Oro

I just got into African rum and there are some real stand outs there as well, mostly from South Africa:
25 Degrees South
Limestone
Inverroche
Durbanville
Rhino
Whistler
and I haven't tried but I am trying to get to them: Tapanga, Still33, Brickmakers, Mora Mora, Mhoba, Rasta and Agua Zulu Cachaca

I also here Fiji has great rum but I haven't tried any.

Saw them at a music festival in Speyer, Germany when I was in the army in early 70s. They were great, but there was a really big rainstorm on Sat. night and the music stopped for a couple of hours and most of us turned in. At the stroke of midnight, though, the opening line of Black Sabbath and "I am Iron Man" had the whole campground waking up and shuffling like zombies out of our camps toward the stage. Not a big Sabbath fan, but I can still hear those opening chords to this day more than 50 years later. Also had Rory Gallagher, Rod Stewart and a ton of other bands my aging brain just cannot recall, but Deep Purple was one of my favorites at the time and I was thrilled to see them.

Edit: OK, aging brain can still fire up the Googler to fact check my faded memory. Firstly, Rod and the Faces were on the bill but didn't play. Also in the line up, billed as a British band thing, were Beggars Opera, Curved Air, East of Eden, Fairport Convention, Gentle Giant, Juicy Lucy, Osibisa and Fleetwood Mac. The festival was in 1971, and something I read said Sabbath started at 2 am, but it was a hell of a festival. And if you haven't heard of most of these bands, don't fret, I haven't heard of most of the bands mentioned on this site either.

I was out there 3 weeks ago. Great course. Oldest continually operated tee box in the US on #1. 17 would be an amazing finishing hole - downhill short par 4 with the resort framed perfectly behind the green. Greens were fast but not unbearable. I played by myself and got in 18 in 2hrs 15min.

Oh yeah I get tons of blood pumps, etc. I'll kept my eye out for you name coming across my desk (if your name on here is close). Cheers!

Yeah winning 4 games straight in the playoff is harder than playing in a conf championship then winning 3 in the playoff

If he's anything like big brother Patrick, we got ourselves a gem.
