Discussion: Signs of Getting Old(er)

This happened 2 times recently...wife and I go golfing.After arriving I remove her clubs....place her bag behind me..look into the trunk and say...Honey..we forgot to put your clubs in the trunk!

After making a 1 hr drive to a golf course,,,I leave my bag at the bag drop, park..as I begin to put my shoes on "realize" I don't see my clubs
and spend about 5-10 minutes calling my wife,cursing... etc before I remember my clubs are at the bag drop...I am 62 1/2...so it begins.....

Discussion: Choosing Home team vs Visitor

Thanks for the response...I guess I was looking for the REASON you ALWAYS pick home team... results be dammed.

OK ,I get it now...its an unreasoning belief system not open to
results or facts. I will now go commit "harry carry"..have a nice day! :)

Discussion: Choosing Home team vs Visitor

Just wanted to add that I don't think either way should be "written in stone".
I was just struck by the fact that "many on my team" felt its he ONLY choice if given the chance.
Since I have been playing SSB for only 6-7 yrs...not long compared to many on the team..

the ..."Since I've been playing for 30yrs and you ALWAYS pick home".. was the best argument presented...that seemed pretty weak to me...especially when we were kicking Home Team butt as visitor.

Discussion: Choosing Home team vs Visitor

I assembled a pickup team.... we played a qualifier
and in Vegas.. Won the last 5 qualifier games..won the event, 2 as Home team, the last 3 as the Visitor. In Vegas..won 5 straight as the Visitor..10 in a row....however it was a BIG issue to most so ..we voted..9 for home, 2 for visitor..we lost big time. My thinking was we keep the scoring pressure on our opponent and sock it to them in the open...it worked well but in spite of being 5-0 most felt home was the ONLY way to go.

What say you?
