My father was a avid golfer so I started playing with my dad in the 1960's and started watching golf tournaments. I've watched at least part of most of the majors since then and back then watched them all. Tiger was the most talented golfer I've ever seen but I think Jack was close in talent and was more clutch, his majors finishes show that. I even remember Tiger on tv when he was a couple years old. As in most things I think there is some recency bias with Tiger.

Unfortunately, discussions about who is the greatest inevitably lead to a denigration of one or more of those involved.

Jack and Tiger are both great golfers. They both made clutch shots. They both showed superior course management and they both had an incredible desire to compete. I’ve watched both over the past 50 years and they are the only two I’ve watched who, when they absolutely must make a putt, seemed like they always did.

Jack was definitely a better sport than Tiger. Remember him conceding the putt to Tony Jacklin on the 18th hole to tie their Ryder Cup match?

It sounds like Captain, we’ve both followed golf for a long time. How many clubs did you see Tiger throw? How many tournaments did you see him lose because he let his emotions get the better of him?

Agreed.

I remember as a kid seeing him on the Johnny Carson show.

I miss golf a lot. I used to play every chance I got. Never was very good at it, but I did love it. Neck and back finally knocked me out of playing in my mid 30's. Still have my clubs in my GT bag covered in dust out in the garage.

I didn't like Tigers outbursts and temper on the course, my father was the same only worse. Asking how many tournaments it cost him is unknowable. It would be like asking how many tournaments Jack lost because of all the time he spent on his business of designing golf courses instead devoting that time to practice.

I want to go with Religious fanatic, but something about his mom saying 'his politics run hot' and his face scream 'True Believer nazi', so his working at the hate group FRC might just be a troll.

(assuming the above 13 things about this dude are correct) I would love to see the thread pulled on who/why he got his first top secret clearance.


Im going to go with "True Believer nazi', and his working at the liars pretending like anyone is pro-abortion (they are not) was just to steal data that he smuggled to the Trump campaign (this last bit is breitbert level bullshitting). Final answer.

Some of the military were in on the failed coup.


Some ex military, the new head of the DOD will court martial the fuckers and might bring back Flynn and do him along side his brother. Lloyd Austin doesn't strike me as the kinda guy who will tolerate that bullshit and he's gonna go through the DOD like shit through a goose. The GOP won't have the future military in it's corner and if the try to destroy democracy they will be risking a coup and getting shot. From the generals to the ground pounders the services will be purged and new recruits screened, observed and heavily indoctrinated.

There was a guy on another forum that had a major hardon for the insurrection and claimed he had just received his xx-x endorsement and to let him know where to go. I don't remember the actual letters/numbers now, but I googled it at the time and it was a military bomber. Who knows what's true, but I guarantee you that if there were every any type of major firefight between Trump'ers and the military, some of those servicemembers would step back and start popping their own.

Two hours before Guard forces entered the Capitol, they were guarding DOD officials' homes.
That weren't under obvious threat... Their biggest threat now is Lloyd Austin the new secretary of Defense and perhaps a congressional investigation or commission. They are gonna have to account for every minute including how long they spent on the fucking toilet. I would expect some court marshals for the uniforms involved and legal consequences for the civilians, but before that the heads will roll in the DOD.

I hate to laugh about violence on people in prison, because I really don't think that anyone should be tortured, even if they prove unsafe to be around people and get locked up.

But this guy, the cockroaches guy, and vegan diets are just nonstop snow flaking from this group of insurrectionists.
