2017-2018 D1 Women's Soccer Talk!

Well, I bit and had to look up the 2nd verse (because I’ve never heard the anthem considered as racist and I’m curious by nature):

Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines in the stream, 'Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Maybe I do t have the right perspective but I still don’t see it.

Somebody told MAP the second verse was racist, but its actually the third verse that some would argue, (incorrectly) is racist, with a reference to "hirelings and slaves".
In any event, nobody is gonna have their minds changed at this point.
Good for you for taking the time to look it up.

Im all about the 3-d checkers, but nobody gives me points.
Did Zero-D give NG a point on the "projected" final?

I would like summathat action if projections fruitionate.

I agree that would really suck, fortunate for me I’ve lost only 1 AVX ball the last 2 rounds. This includes playing Vellano Country Club (now public) in Chino Hills which is target golf. It’s target golf, because on almost every hole there is a ravine carry off the tee.

I played Pro V1 and Pro V1x prior and IMO the AVX is a better ball for my game. I’m a high ball hitter, so I don’t need the extra spin with the wedges with the Pro V balls. The AVX ball also has a softer cover and makes for a better feel when putting.
