ND is horrible.
Loved Tiger in his prime, but I watch Rory now tbh....and I am at most. a Majors + 2 fan (the big tourneys).

His body just broke down bc he ran it at the redline into his 30's, not much mystery to why he fell apart.

The amazing part is that he lasted as long as he did; my body is now breaking down in my mid 30s and I lifted heavy/ played fball, but didn't do 1/7th the stuff he did.

Everything I've heard said how big of a prick Tiger is.

I was goling last summer for charity outing and one of the guy with us knew him when he was heading to Medinah. The limo driver asked if he would ike to stop anywhere before getting dropped off at the hotel, Tiger looked up from his phone, said " I'll let you know when i want you to speak."

lmao never cared for tiger after hearing that story. Karma is a *****.

Now Spieth, that's a guy I cheer for every week. And P Reed, mostly because he's the arrogant prick golfer who doesn't shy from being the arrogant prick golfer.

So you dislike Tiger because he is a prick but you cheer for Reed because he is an arrogant prick

Liked Jordan more before he jumped and cheered at DJs 3 putt.
I get he won.. but a little class would have been nice.
He was humble in the interview later which was cool.
He will be a big favorite this week. He killed Agusta last year.
He's not playing his best right now.
I usually pull for the old guys... Cause I'm getting there.

As someone that was a golf fanatic and played as many as 110 rounds a year, I can attest to the toll it takes on your body. Woods was a range rat that hit millions of balls and all that turning and impact took a toll on his body. He also adopted the Navy Seal training regiment and heavy weightlifting which also broke down his body

He will never win another tournament. He is done as a threat.

Reed owns it. He's young. He's not arrogant in a asshole sense, he justr thinks hes a kickass golfer and can beat anyone.

Jordans a great guy it seems like and I love watching him play. I still don't get the Rory obsession, guy is talked about constantly but hasn't made noise in awhile. I'm more a Spieth, Day, DJ, Fowler fan.

I really like the younger guys myself. Daniel Berger is a name people will be talking about years from now.

what other sense is there for arrogant...I can't think of a situation where I would take being called arrogant as a compliment.

I'm a fan of golf for sure. I like Rory... I think he will get the slam... would be cool to see.
Fowler is one of my favorites... just a cool customer.
I'll pull for Phil... Cause he's not supposed to win at 45+...
Love Masters week...

Golf players don't have the right to have bad attitudes.

No, but people have the prerogative to not cheer for or even dislike high profile athletes who are, by almost all accounts, complete pricks

I wonder why Desperado feels that way.

GP, I don't have any problem with you or your stance on race.... I would say I get it but that would be a lie... There is no way I could.
However is it really a need of yours to inject that shit into everything?
Its Masters week... The greatest tournament of the year missing one of its greatest players... can we stay on target?

After hitting my buddy sitting in the cart with my tee shot I was asked to stop showing up. It left a pretty good mark. He thought I broke his rib. He also didn't like how hard the rest of us were laughing. That was a fun day of drinking.

I do not like it when guys get ahead of me when I shoot because I am afraid of spraying the ball at them. About six weeks ago I hit TWO GUYS in the same round. On both shots I had a sidehill downhill lie and I toed the ball right. One hit one guy in the meat of his ass on maybe two bounces and the other I just missed the guys balls and it hit him in the upper thigh. Fortunately neither of these guys were hurt bad. Don't know why but they still play with me:) But they don't get ahead of me:(

Loved, Loved Tiger as a player.
The guy that immediately came to mind that fell so quickly was Mario Lemieux. In Mario's case it was cancer instead of injuries.
Denny McClain is another in baseball that just had his career come to an end quickly.
The reverse would be someone like Sandy Koufax. Had two different careers. One bad and then one HOF.


I knew Denny when we played in high school against each other and when we were on the same American Legion team. Threw harder than any player I ever played for or against. My cousin, Tommy, played on his team(Mt. Carmel) in high school. Lou Boudreau came to watch him when he could and he ended up marrying Lou's daughter. Dumb shit, Denny, pissed everything away sadly and pretty much owes his life to Lou when he bailed his ass off with the mob who he owed money to.

Tiger is done! There's too many young guys who he can't beat when he gets back. Day, Rory, and Spieth are all way ahead of Woods.

Brother Monster, I only expanded on what gpphat subtly applied. Desperado is a cool guy (mostly when it comes to Cutler), but everyone on the board knows how he views certain things on a social level. It's no big deal really.

BTW, I was completely on subject with my first post on page one. I will now get back on subject to keep from derailing your thread.
