Maybe it's just my sincere admiration for women that in observation of Justine carrying the guy's bag in his earlier years and her ability to stand by her man, that I thought "Captain America" was an okay guy and I always tried to look on the bright side regarding his behavior on and off the course. What woman would put up with knowing there was any dishonesty or abuse? Excuse me for my naivety.

In Reed’s “case” two things are true at the same time - his counsel has a fool for a client and the client might seek representation from Mar-a-loco

OK the planetary core line is early #1 for funniest of the year. Given the nearly geological age of ‘it’s the ball’ at the core of your web presence it’s going to be tough to top for us long time readers.

Re:Reed , America’s Pariah , a great lawmaker once used the term “benign neglect”. This chucklehead has become a malignant black spot on the game .

Those who think the game profits from a black hat need to think again - re: Bryson and Brooks

Once again it should be suggested :

“Raise your hand if you miss these guys”

Daily Double ? Name top five on LIV

Do we require any more coverage or “benign neglect”?

Patrick Reed, a very wimpy tee toss...underhanded (well,maybe that explains it). Needs to take lessons, practice and get better at a tee flick.

Rory - listening to the reporter, maintaining his composure, barely a nod, next question please (was that the reporter who begged to move on?)

Will Reed sue Rory for ignoring him???

While scanning thru the beach collapse video was wondering if the videographer was going to be nominated for a Darwinian Award for filming from UNDERNEATH the slide area...

Thanks for all the great posts,notes,links...always entertaining.

When Reed wins all his obviously incontestable lawsuits, will he ever need to play pro golf again?

At the time I was imagining the team of Patrick and Justine I was relating them to the team of Steve Stricker and Nicki. My bad. There’s an Ocean of distance between the two teams and it takes a bit of time to all wash up on the beach!

Geoff, for clarification except for the tier purses at events what were the significant changes to heip the Tour’s ratings and product? Like last year it appears off course news is way bigger than the weekly events.
