And I suppose it's inconceivable that someone could agree with Tom and not be simply ass-kissing, or criticise Jack and not be simply bashing?

Whoops, forgot who I was asking....

Why everytime I ask for a simple example the person ignores my request and attacks me instead?  Please...give one example in the last week where anyone praised the contributions of Nicklaus on Dismal or Sebonack.

The King would be Mr. Palmer.

Mr. Nicklaus would be Jack, and lucky if nobody slipped and said Fat Jack.

Can't waste my time on thinking about something that will never happen, the only way Tiger or Mr. Jack Nicklaus the first would post is if somebody PAID them, both have very clear, "Time is Money"!

because you are a bad, modern design loving, hater of classic and neo-classic design and we "minimalists" are insecure and do not and will not tolerate a dues paying member of a fazio abomination.
I get it, you are mad at the world because you are an adult caddie and few people take you seriously.

Excellent spellers usually lack any vision or common sense.

I know plenty of courses that are in the red, and they are killing it.

I will still refer to him as Jack, unless I actually met him, in which case it would be Mr. Nicklaus.

What did he say or do that merited praise? Are we somehow obligated to make some sort of sham attempt to provide "balance" like the nitwit networks that feel they must have a talking head for each side of public debate? Must someone criticising his work first point out things they like before commenting on something they dislike?

Jeff Brauer defended Nicklaus plenty on the one thread, often erroneously so. I didn't see you criticising him for repeatedly making erroneous or misleading comments about Tom D.

You are the one who threw the first stone by stating, or at the very least, strongly implying that anyone who agreed with Tom D was just an ass kisser trying to look smart by association - why anyone would feel the need to dignify any one of your requests is simply beyond me, especially with your pathetic attempt to play the victim?

That's what I was referring to when I commented on your sad view.

The fact that Mike Young continues to support you for your oh-so-utterly courageous tilting at imaginary windmills saddens me even further.

C'mon Mike...

Just come clean and tell the group that you've created the computerized Dorkometer in your spare time.

Although, it may need some adjustments to the high-end ranges after redlining off the charts all this past weekend.

Mike,

If you don't have the RangeFinder Usage variable factored in yet, I'm not sure it's ready for the market.  

You would certainly know this better than I do, but is there a way for the Dorkometer to pick up on shaving techniques?  

That would certainly help to refine and delineate the top end scoring.

The dork meter is a very delicate instrument.....remember the movie "Something about Mary"?  I had some dork testing the shaving part of the instrument and he got that "hair mousse" all over the machine....we got a mess right now....

Mike,

I post on an internet message board.

Yes, I am a dork.

Did anyone ever see that clip fromTGC when I think Kessler visited his home and Jack cut off his tie?

I'd call him however he signed off.

I like the quote from the OSU coach Francis Schmidt, and think it applies here.


"The inaugural season [1934 - Ben] for coach Francis Schmidt is one that sparked a couple of great OSU traditions.  OSU's teams had been losing to Michigan regularly, and Schmidt made his famous quote “They put their pants on one leg at a time same as everybody else"


Unless they put them on from a sitting position :)
