Tour starts fund for Jarrod Lyle in leukemia recovery
KAPALUA, Hawaii (AP) Australian golfer Jarrod Lyle has gone through a third round of bone marrow transplant, and the PGA Tour wants to help Lyle and his family cope with the medical bills.
The tour announced ”January for Jarrod,” and part of the program includes a non-tax-deductible gift that can be made at www.youcaring.com/januaryforjarrod. All proceeds go directly to Lyle family to offset daily living, family and medical expenses.
Lyle, who played on the PGA Tour during five seasons over 10 years, suffered a third recurrence of acute myeloid leukemia on Dec. 6. He had the bone marrow transplant in Melbourne, about 90 minutes from his home.

”It’s of utmost importance for the PGA Tour family and the golf community to come together and help Jarrod and his family both spiritually and financially during `January for Jarrod’ month,” said Andy Pazder, the tour’s chief of tournaments and competitions.
Along with gifts, the tour has produced a linear phot..

The best knockout of 2018 already happened
Less than 72 hours into 2018 and we've already seen the best knockout of the year. Hands down. Lights, quite literally, out. Is that premature? Probably. Will it make us seem like idiots as early as next week? Almost certainly. But look upon this tapestry of pain and try to tell us otherwise.

The man in the red you see opening up a can of Bruce Lee on his opponent is Satoshi “Tiger” Date, a Japanese flyweight who on Saturday night pulled off this insane “Rolling Thunder” KO at an MMA event in Ganryujima. Ranked #193 in his weight class in Japan and boasting a career record of 6-9-7, Date isn't exactly what you'd call a powerhouse or even a contender, but the combination of acrobatics, arrogance, and ferocity required to execute a move like this in a competitive bout has helped Date achieve something even more elusive: Internet stardom.
We have a long yea..

Want a divorce? Buy this $68,000 foosball table for your man cave
Gentleman of America, we have found it. The most ridiculous accessory in the long, ridiculous history of man-cave accessories. No it's not the custom Halo Xbox you won't let your kids play nor the acoustic guitar you haven't touched since college. It isn't the collection of 1970s Playboys hidden in the drawer beneath the novelty Cheers mini-fridge next to the signed photo of that time you met Jean-Claude Van Damme. It's this—a foosball table that costs more than your asshole neighbor's Porsche.
FacebookPinterest$68,300 pre-tax US dollars. That's how much this gleaming Hermès tribute to your middle school friend Steve's musty basement will run you. Hewn from once-towering maple and ensconced in formerly-living calfskin, this future bout of acute buyer's remorse is elegant, opulent, and profoundly stupid all at once, sodding its field in luxurious leather and bedecking its jockeys in miniature silk jerseys that definitely cost more than the Pe..
This Swiss hockey coach is the most brutally honest dude on the planet
As much as we enjoy hockey here at The Loop, and do our best to keep you up to speed on all things puck, we understand it's not the most popular of the four major sports. Chances are most people will know what happened in this beer-can race rather than what happened in the Devils-Blues game on Tuesday night. In other words, we get if you haven't been following the World Junior Championships over the holiday break, or if you've never even heard of the World Junior Championships.
If that's the case, you've not only missed out on some of the best players under 20 in the world, but you've also missed out on the most brutally honest dude on the planet, that being Switzerland's head coach Christian Wohlwend. While the Swiss have their share of active NHLers, including 2017's No. 1 overall pick of the New Jersey Devils, Nico Hischier, no one has ever mistaken the country for a hockey powerhouse. That title belongs to Canada, who Switzerland had the unfo..
Sorry to ruin your day, but apparently chocolate (Yes, CHOCOLATE) is an endangered species
Cultura RM Exclusive/Diana MillerDouble Chocolate 015Try not to panic, everyone, but apparently chocolate is an endangered species. So says a recent Business Insider article titled “Chocolate is on track to go extinct in 40 years.” So much for a Happy New Year, huh?
RELATED: How to survive this murderous stupid cold
According to the piece, scientists estimate cacao plants, the natural source of chocolate, could be a thing of the past by 2050. These plants, which grow in rainforest land near the equator, have been hit hard by fungal disease and the “hoax” known as “climate change” in recent years. This might be enough of a reason to explore living on another planet. (Side note: Over half the world's chocolate now comes from just two countries in West Africa. So please keep West Africa in your prayers.)
At least one chocolate giant, Mars, is stepping up. The company has pledged $1 billion to help reduce its carbon footprint and work with scientists to develop cacao plants that aren&..
