Neal Shipley - ex tOSU golfer, now touring pro

Solo second at 15 under through two rounds at this week's Korn Ferry event. The leader is -20 (62-62), which is insane. Both the PGA Tour and Korn Ferry Tour 72 hole scoring records are -31. Even if he doesn't win this week, it seems clear that Neal will be playing with the big boys next year.
After 3 rounds in the

Price Cutter Charity Championship presented by Hiland Dairy Foods​

Shipley (63-66-68) is tied with one other golfer for second at -19, the leader Chandler Blanchet (62-62-69) is at -23.

Jay Cutler (official thread)

My grandfather had a small rundown farm in Gore, Ohio. I loved the grands, but they did seem to live rather primitively when compared to Columbus. One day, I was about 6 years old and walking toward him when I heard a rattler start its shaker. Grandpa held up both hands to say, stand still. He reached down into the weeds, grabbed the rattler by the tail, and snapped it like a bullwhip, the head coming off in this one movement. He then told us to not touch it if we found it and threw the body away. He went from country hick to Superman in one fell swoop!
I heard that was possible but hell no.

Airport annoyances

Back in 2006 I flew back into Phoenix from Heathrow and got ambushed at customs. My wife's parents had some old luggage and when they died she kept it. One suitcase was this big red monster, more of a trunk and me lacking any sense of fashion chose to use it. Got into the UK, no problem. Coming back, coming through customs they were waiting for me. They immediately pulled me to the side after showing my passport. I had nothing to hide so I wasn't nervous. We go to this place with a table and he puts it on the table, crosses his arms, looks at me accusingly and asks what's inside. I told him the truth, my dirty laundry and some souvenirs. He kind of smirked and asked me if I had more than 10 grand inside. I told him "I wish". He asks if he can take a look, tell him "sure" and open it up. He starts digging through it, looking kind of disappointed and then asks "How can a guy like you afford to travel overseas?". I asked him what he meant and pointed out the old suitcase and perhaps I was looking kind of shaggy. I just told him "I'm lucky I guess". He then asks what I do for a living and a bunch of other stuff and he tried tripping me up a few times. He then asked me to lift up my pants legs which I did. He then let me go. I was outside waiting for a shuttle, smoking a cig (my smoking days) and some undercover looking dude comes out and "bums a cig". I give it to him, he pretends to light it up then walks away. They really must of thought that I looked shady.
Thank goodness he didn’t see your dinner plates.

Game Thread #1 Texas at #2 tOSU, Sat. Aug. 30th, 12pm ET, FOX

Still disgusted it's a noon game. Even the Miami home game in 2010 was 3:30pm.

Oh well.

Can't tell if it's the state of how college football is anymore because of the playoffs; or maybe it's the shift away from discussion forums as a medium - but the 2005 thread had 7k replies and was dozens of pages longer by July compared to now. The 2006 thread tops that by quite a bit.

Texas visits for the first time in 20 years. Hoping the crowd at The Shoe' is up to the task so early in the day.
