The 48 “essential” items every golfer has in their bag
2. An assortment of tees, ranging from wooden to plastic to brush in different shapes, sizes and colors, including at least one naked-lady tee.
3. Ball markers: a selection of coins, as well as plastic and metal discs with sponsors or club motifs. You only ever use that lucky one you’ve had since you were 11.
10. A waterproof jacket and trousers — taken off, stuffed away and forgotten about after that last soaking you got. They now smell like a vagabond’s crotch.
11. A windproof top crumpled down to the size of an orange.
16. Energy and chocolate bars, most of which passed their expiration date several months ago.
17. An array of bags of nuts/crackers/trail mix/beef jerky and other consumables.
44. A rain hood.
45. A club-cleaning wire brush, on which you’ve cut yourself on several times and sworn to get rid of . . . . . but never do.

I Agree
Bernhard Langer Says Anchored Putting Ban 'Never Made Any Sense'
"To me it never made any sense, and to a lot of people it doesn't…My
argument was always, if it's easier to putt that way, everybody would
putt that way, wouldn't you think? Out of 100 touring pros, you would
see 99 putting that way. And that's not the case…I don't think we ever
had more than 10-15 percent of the players, no matter at what level,
putt with an anchored putter. That just shows it's not easier. It's not
better. It only works for some."
He went on to explain how he feels that the ban could damage the game on the amateur or recreational levels:
"It's going to take a lot of joy and fun away from amateurs, whether they have the yips or the shakes or they have a bad back and they'd rather stand more upright because it hurts them to bend over with a shorter putter."

Tweak to coach's challenge system introduced at GM meetings
BOCA RATON, Fla. -- As part
of continuing tweaks to the coach's instant replay challenge, the NHL
will introduce two cameras located at each blue line in the 16 buildings
hosting games during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Colin Campbell, the senior vice president of hockey operations for the League, made the announcement Monday at the first day of the three-day meeting of general managers here.
"That's
the one in-season tweak we can make," Campbell said. "It's not a rule
change; it's just helping make the process better."Colin Campbell, the senior vice president of hockey operations for the League, made the announcement Monday at the first day of the three-day meeting of general managers here.

This Is An Underated & Underappreciated Car Paint Color
These Are The Best Paint Colors From The World's Craziest Automaker
The next color on our list is Viola Ophelia. Purple has not been a common color choice since the Diablo was sold in the 1990s. Purple cars in general aren't offered much anymore. This is a shame, because we think it looks pretty amazing on the Aventador. If you want to be unique in the world of supercars, purple should definitely be your number one choice. We also love Rosso Bia, or red. Back in the 1980s, red was a very popular color on the Countach. However, in recent years red hasn't been the most popular color. Lamborghini customers typically went for orange or yellow. Now, Rosso Bia has been brought back in spectacular fashion with the Aventador SV.

Buying a Lamborghini is a
message to the world that you are a reserved and sophisticated
individual. Oh wait, that's not right. A Lamborghini is meant to be wild
and outrageous. Pulling up to your destination in a Lambo lets others
know that you have arrived in style and that you command attention.
These cars are great in any color, but some just pop more. We have
compiled a list of the five best colors that Lamborghini has ever made.
This was very difficult because there have been so many great colors!

It Really Depends On The Model Chosen
LAST MAN STANDING: Of The BIG Three Germans, Audi, BMW, Mercedes, WHICH Vehicle Would YOU Expect To Stand The Test Of Time?
If there's one thing that people care about when buying an all-new vehicle, it's reliability.
With all of the bills and things people have to worry about
today, the last thing you need is yet another significant drain on your
bank account. Sure, most all-new vehicles do have warranties that extend
out four years/50,000 miles, whichever comes first.
But what if you hang onto it until it drops dead?
Of the BIG three German manufacturers, which automaker would you expect to be the most reliable AND survive the longest? Audi? BMW? Mercedes-Benz?
Agent 001, 009 and myself have owned the German marques and can easily catalog our varied experiences. But we're more interested in what you think and your perception. WHO would YOU trust with your hard-earned dollars if you were buying and keeping a one of the BIG three German vehicles until its wheels fell off?
