Ralph Lauren has moved on.

JT has moved on.

People on this site have moved on.

He has been forgiven by pretty much everyone.

The only "debate" is from twits who think that the word "fa***" is the same as dick, or jerk or f*ckwit.

Ralph Lauren didn't miss anything. IN fact, the publicity they gained from doing waht they did may have been a smart financial move.

I think this is pretty accurate. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

I have a hard time believing RL would do this for money.😏

And who suggested they did? Not me.

Protecting your brand is obviously about money. But they weren't cynical about it.

Yeah, where I work you would get fired for using the slur that JT did even if if self directed. For good reason.

"Dumbass" might get you a laugh at the most. 

Not sure what is so hard about understanding the difference. Look up 'Illegal discrimination' - good place to start if you don't know where to draw the line. It's not always about 'looking for a reason to get offended'. 

EDIT: JT took responsibility. Seemed very sincere. He is good in my book. Time to move on for sure. Was good to see him win yesterday.

For what it's worth (very little), I used to be a moderate fan of his, but found myself rooting for anyone but him over the weekend because of the whole thing.

I vote we delete this whole thread and move on.

Then why contribute to it?

And why are the people who think it should be deleted or move on bumping it?

There are people who are offended when they hear someone use the term dumbass.

That’s not this. Not remotely.

Dumbass.

The point is… why are YOU posting in it?

Just ignore it and move on.

He still wears Ralph Lauren clothes...just without the logo. I think there is an under the table deal.

...time will tell how wrong I am

As I said before, and I don’t know the legalities of it, JT can wear RL all he wants...but he won’t be paid for it.

My point was that I think he will be paid for it again.

Thats why I said “under the table deal” Although handshake agreement may be a more accurate phrase of what I think is happening.

You have zero evidence to back up the claim. I don't think there is a reason why both parties would be hypocrites.

And I don't think they'd engage in tax evasion and illegal activity in this scenario either.

His clothes fit exactly as they did before, even down to the arm cuffs.

What do you think Luke Donald (respected brand ambassador) meant by this comment?

Do you think he is happy that JT isn’t wearing RL?

Do you think he is giving him a wink and a nod that he knows his clothes are RL?

Do you think he simply likes his outfit?

Do you think he is making fun of JT?


My original post stated “time will tell how wrong I am”
