        Really hope Westwood's in the mix tomorrow, he's hoping for a 5 or 6 under lead, that would make for a fantastic Sunday.

            Hmmmm golf. Then you see McIlroy's trousers and remember the horror.

                I know, just hoping this time it's different. Rootin'.

                Haven't punted on it this year like I used to, put two small bets on it today (Scott & Mickelson), enjoying it more though. Used to be about 25 bets deep at this stage with the head bet into betfair instead of really enjoying it and rooting for lads for the sake of it.

                  I'd like to see these lads try to catch a dropping ball on the edge of the square in Semple Stadium.

                      I got great streams on Mobdro last night if you've no access to a TV.

                            He doesn't have a voice for commentary, really grates.

                            There's actually a disproportionate amount of Irish in commentary positions across all sports.

                              Is there really though considering who broadcasts the sports coverage you watch?

                                Has a v. good voice for commentary. It's natural unlike McGinley who puts on an accent.

                                  Spanish commentators are much better

                                    McDowell was commentating a few weeks ago. His accent is awful but was really insightful and streets ahead of the rest. Similar to Harrington who has great insight. As a lover of golf it is interesting to find out things that I would not know myself from watching the masters for 20+ years.

                                      This is Kjell Ove. Who came second at the final table tonight in the Norwegian Championships. I drew this and gave it to one of this family members I think..who said he rather liked it I snapped this just before I gave it away.

                                        Any Irish person in commentary position is a disproportionate amount!

                                            I presume you'd be just as supportive if she was competing in boxing or wrestling and smashing all the other females on route to gold.

                                              Hi Mellor.

                                              Well Really I just want to be nice. And post something positive. I don't claim to have all the answers.

                                              I have of late ...been thinking ..how I see the world ...through the matrix or after taking a red pill or a blue.

                                              I see the world through feeling.

                                              So that was my feeling. And I said it.

                                              I have met Trans men and women who were smarter than me ...nicer than me etc ...but they were also nice to me. And even if they weren't .....i still feel ..or am able to feel a little of what it might be like ..to walk that path.

                                              So respect.

                                              And I respect you too Mellor...because whatever we feel ....we are all equal in feeling. We all have feelings.

                                              I support human dignity. And I know you do too just as much as me. And I never want to hurt anyone even if they disagree with me ...as they would feel that hurt equally to me.

                                                So yes. I support this woman.

                                                          The wife did it to get started on python as is now working in the area, so that seems a decent enough recommendation

                                                          Idea is to do a machine learning specialism, but you need some python knowledge first.
                                                          Might be in the same boat. That job I went for went to an internal candidate (obv) so last chance saloon is permanent job in DCU in exactly my field which will be on offer over the summer. That will be interview no. 5 for my own job!

                                                          If I don't get that I'll probably be on the Python train to try and get one of them data jobs. Loads of our PhD grads have been snapping them up. Problem is I've typically got to about page 7 of the programming book then given up because it bores the life out of me.

                                                                        Not being able to find something I am looking for. I swear the fairies moved it ! Not me I didn't lose it!

                                                                        Being ignored or ostracized I suppose.

                                                                        Not being able to find what I am looking for though ..yup.

I presume that we'd all agree that it's never ok for a man to hit a women - isolated statement btw, not calling anyone a man.

People are free to identify as whatever they feel like imo. The women in the previous article was transgender. That's her decision. People often confuse transgender with transsexual. But they aren't the sane. Gender is not about sexuality. Gender is about identity.

                                                                            A transgender women, and a transsexual women and a ciswomen are not identical.

                                                                                    It's great that you feel that way. But you can't only look at the positive aspects in any situation. There's action and reaction.
                                                                                    There's often limited spaces on the girls team. What if allowing a transgender athlete means another girls gets bumped off the team. Doesn't get her scholarship, and doesn't go to college.
                                                                                    I guess she should have just been better, right.
                                                                                    That's not to mention her opponents than could end up severely hurt.

                                                                                    After how long identifying as a women is a transgender person allowed on the girls team? If some Russian boxer decided he now identified as a women. Is it ok for him to fight Katie Taylor next week?
                                                                                    Why/Why not? She's a women now. Just a strong one, probably didn't mean to break Katie's eye socket.

                                                                                    I'm all for identify, however ever anyone sees it. But i don't turn a blind eye to situations where someone can get hurt.
