Glad you had a great time and the weather was cooperative for you. Swope Memorial is a good course. It's just a couple miles to the east of my house. I'll play it at least a couple times every summer. Haven't played Stone Canyon yet, but hear good things. I'm a member over at Indian Hills Country Club over across the state line in Kansas and play quite a bit over in Lawrence, KS at Eagle Bend where my best friend is the course superintendent.

I take it you went to the gas station location for Joe's? There's more than a couple locations across the city, but the original is still pretty good to experience at least one. So many great BBQ choices in KC. The competition is such that you can't find a bad joint.

The drive down from Minnesota isn't too bad since it's just I-35. Not a glamorous drive, but better than the one I drive up I-29 to see my son play ball up in North Dakota.

What kind of ball? Baseball, or hoops? College? Went to a BBQ place called Q39 last time i was in KC...outstanding!

I'm a Man UTD fan. It's nice to say that with a bit of pride for the first time in a little while... Thank you Solskjaer

Yeah, United apparently should have fired Mourinho months ago, lol. They look a totally different team under Solskjaer.

I follow Spurs. Saw them beat Real Madrid at Wembley last year; it was a hell of an experience!

Oh wow, what a game to go to! Wembley's often a bit quiet, but I bet it was rocking that night.

And whilst Ole has injected some fresh optimism, there's a high chance of a reality check at Wembley next Sunday

I'm not following too closely anymore, but remember Solskjaer's playing career. Absolute delight to watch, baby face with monster's attitude, the super sub.

My team Liverpool comes with mother's milk. My mother was the football fan and player in our family when I grew up. We watched Premier League (or it was First Division back then), days of Grobbelaar etc..

Later, of course Hyypiä's period was spectacular to watch.

Nowadays I've been mainly following hockey.

Welcome!

 

[57special]

All of you with your fancy boy clubs. Try following Newcastle. Now THAT takes a real man!
