I second that, but the OP has a good username.

Rory will win in a landslide imo

Looking forward to it. I’ve got a hip replacement, so upgraded to a room with tv. Those in Canada catch this on TSN early rounds.

Didn't someone ask Jack once why he played in the Canadian Open ?

And he said something like paraphrasing " it's their national.championship why wouldn't i." Jack is still the man btw.

Good luck on your recovery. As someone who has had both replaced take your meds, take therapy seriously and in a couple of months you will feel great and wonder why you didn’t do it sooner rather than putting up with all that pain.

Thanks! That’s what they tell me. Played a lot of golf, and walking and running over time. Left hip of course. Dominant leg.

Scheffler can't play.

 

 

He was ordered not to leave the country.  

 

Too bad he will miss out on the maple syrup, cooler weather, discounted pharmaceuticals and the round bacon.

Jack didn't play at Cherry Hill club in 1972.  The course probably didn't suit him; or that was a family weekend.

Canada wouldn’t have let a hardened criminal like Scotty in any way. That’s a one way door up there. Keep us riff-raff out!!

Tell me about it!

Are they afraid he's going to go Dr. Kimble on them?

 

[Ferguson]

Someone agree with me Sam Burns is overdue.  I see him playing well in Canada.

Scotty should simply cross over from the Quebec border like all the other's....he could probably end up with Canadian citizenship before the weekend!

Great episode. 

 

Absolutely one of the most underrated guitarists of all time.

No argument here. I assume you’ve seen the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame acceptance speech?

Sadly, Canada offset that by giving us Nickelback as well.

Mike Myers is another negative checkbox for Canada. He is what a friend of mine would call a 19.  Essentially not worth 20 minutes of your time.

Of course.   

 

The journey Rush took in their career "explained appropriately" by Alex Lifeson.
