Post your personal victories

Well, we play Philly next. Or I think. Somehow we’re still going to let Simmons go off for 40. Niang revenge game. Needless to say, it may be a while before we see another one of these:



Over the years I tend to have a hedge between how the Jazz are doing and how my life is doing. When the wheels are falling off for the Jazz, the frustration mounts and I enjoy the fact that while the team can’t put forth effort, and none of my efforts really have any effect on the W/L column, that I actually have some control with what goes on elsewhere in life, and my efforts can outpace the ******** I’m seeing on the court. On the flip side, when the Jazz are really rolling it’s nice to throw any life frustrations out into the abyss of not caring because you can have that positivity of a good run carry things. Finishing out the year alone in first place for the first time in history was great. We’ll ignore what came after that (and part of why I enjoyed it so much was my suspicion that we wouldn’t have much else to get high on after that).

So to contrast with the ******** efforts we’re seeing on the floor, this thread is to post your own wins to help me feel better.

I beat my granddaughter armwrestling. She's surprisingly strong for a 7 year old.

I started playing golf just 3.5 months ago. Yesterday I shot +3 over 9 holes on a challenging course. I feel legitimately smug af.

Good stuff. Though I know what this means, I’m not experienced enough with golf to know where people would compare at different skill levels. My dad is a huge golfer and he’s always said I need to get into it. It’s been a while since I’ve been to the driving range, but I did the driving range a few times back… maybe 6-7 years ago and realized I could drive the ball well. At least for what I expected as my memories of going as a kid I couldn’t drive far at all.

That's astounding. You're a phenom!
Myself, I've had the opportunity to realize a long held dream of owning a cabin in the mountains. It's taken a lot of work and disciplined saving to come to fruition but it feels grand to have done it. It's quite modest but the family is enjoying the heck out of it!

The best first time golfer was Kim Jung-Il, who shot three hole-in-ones on his first round.

is that why he looks like 10lbs of **** in a 5lb bag?

I just won a game of Among Us as an imposter, so...

Possibly. One of the sacrifices of being a deity I suppose.

He has multiple rounds of single digit scores for the entire round, meaning hole in one on 8 of the 9 holes or more.

Definitely a dream of mine as well.

A month or two ago I had read a post or article about a woman, I believe she was an anesthesiologist, who was between SLC and Vegas but ended up buying some property that I assumed was somewhere around there, and they had put a small home on it. Can’t remember if it was one of those shipping containers or what, but it was interesting, even though I don’t remember a lot of the specifics now. It sounded like they were pretty far out there and had a number of issues.

I'll play infection. Big win of the year in spite of lots of downers...

We are refinancing the house and the goal was to save $300 or so a month. Instead we are going to actually pull out enough cash to do the basement using equity. I expected I wouldn't finish the basement in a decade and my kids would all move out before I could. Instead, we get to do it this year and we will end up with an identical mortgage to what we were paying. It feels like a free basement because I will pay the same per month as I am now.

Besides, I am going to do lots of it myself so I will be extra tired while the Jazz are sucking which means, I will likely snooze through some otherwise terrible 3rd and 4th quarters with a nail gun in my hand.

Besides, RSL made the playoffs on a last second goal after a call went our way that shouldn't. The gods are smiling on RSL after a tough 18 months. Go RSL!
