for starters, golf needs villains. Let's just admit that part of the reason we love sports is because we hate the heel. For the spectators, its more fun b/c you don't just have to clap all the time you can boo and hiss. The heel has so many opportunities...he can be walking to the next tee box and pull his hand back before giving someone a high five. He can autograph a ball for a kid but instead of giving it to the kid, turn around and throw it into the middle of water hazard. he sinks a clutch putt and tells the crowd to suck it.

Patrick Reed’s the most easily hateable villain the sport has ever had

and of course the character arcs. like Rory just being a total dick all the time and everyone hates him but then after the 18th hole at the US Open on Sunday, bad boy Bubba Watson sinks the winning putt, both remove their hats/visors and shake hands...but then Rory kicks Bubba in the stomach and gives him a stone cold stunner. Back to hero status. beloved by all. nobody even cares that he just lost the belt he can still get up on the top turnbuckle and everybody is going to lose their effing minds

I’m not sure what it was about tiger that made me like watching golf on TV, but it’s not as exciting without him.  I’m pretty certain the level of play is the same or similar, so it’s hard to really nail down why.

It's no where close to being as fun as it used to be.   I mean the unlikeable guys are not fun unlikeable, and most of these guys are just robots anymore. 

You had Tiger, which was awesome.   You got to watch and wait to see what kind of nutty ass shot Phil was going to try and pull off.    These guys are boring AF.

You're watching greatness, who still has a shot at the all time majors title. Every major tourney he's in, grabs taints and balls by the bootstraps with viewership. There's a lot on the line and it adds to the drama.

I agree with dax about these dudes being robots.  You have to work so insanely hard to get that damn good that it creates a machine.  Phil was fun and but now it is just a snooze.  They can definitely play though.

And lol at KK, my god he is such an incel

Keep the useful idiots of ProgFascist Nation fully in our .001% camp by going woke.   Outstanding strategy

The 'self own' tap out hits early today.

Making fun of yet another 180 by ProgFascist Nation is now classified by Resident Chief ProgFascist Deflector Rainman.7 as a 'self own'  :lol: :lol:

All I could read before the paywall was that executives made a lot of money despite taking pay cuts because a lot of their compensation is tied to their respective company's market equity.  :dunno:

Median CEO pay was up 13% last year.

But 100 CEO's had a big meeting this past weekend about punitive measures against states that pass election laws they don't like.

Keep Corporations out of government  :shakesfist:. . . unless we agree with their agenda  :Woot: (ProgFascist Nation)

Screw the 1%  :curse: :curse: . . . unless they say the right things  :love: :love:  (ProgFascist Nation)

Still waiting on being told who can no longer vote in Georgia.

Patrick Reed is a dumb fat hoe and Bryson is the try hard that everyone knows and rolls their eyes at. Unfortunately because neither of them are unique personalities, and they don't win enough or demand enough attention, they aren't enough to drive a narrative that is must watch television.
