I knew John Daly would figure out a way to get back on TV.




EDIT: Was there also a rattlesnake bite in that episode? Because, according to my on-screen guide, there is another episode of the show on in an hour. But the only info they get is about a child getting bit by a snake.

Ok seriously - did his cousin get mad and shove a driver shaft through his head? AKA - tried to kill him. Is that what happened or was it somehow a freak accident?

Ok, watching it now. The pre-show preview was hilarious.

The dude is wheeled in with the golf club through his head, but it's completely wrapped up in about 6 inches of gauze. Then they flash to the nurse slowly and carefully cutting the gauze away, they show the club head on the end of the shaft as she unwraps it, and she says "ok, it's a driver".

And if that wasn't funny enough (for f***s sake, it's a golf club shoved through a man's HEAD! Who cares what loft it is?!?!), then the guy, awake and mad as hell, screams "Dry-vah?!" (he's an Aussie) "That's me fay-va-roite club!"

Will update as show progresses.

Okay, they just started the golf club sequence.

The Paramedic calls in to the ER and is FREAKING out.

Paramedic (on Radio): "I've got a guy with a golf club through is head. I don't know what to do! You need to tell me what to do!"

ER doc: Okay, you've got a head trauma. You've had those before. Start head trauma protocol.

Paramedic: No, you don't understand. This is more than head trauma.
The guy has a Golf.Club.THROUGH.His.Head. I need a wider ambulance.

My mistake, it wasn't gauze wrapped around the club.

They wrapped a pillow around each side of the shaft that was sticking out from his head and taped it up.

I'm going to see if I can take a digiphoto.




EDIT:
Aussie Dude: "I'm nevah playing golf with hem again as long as I live."
EDIT #2:
(Female) ER Doc: "What's your name?"

Aussie Dude: "My name is Alex Baymer. But you can call me Alex."
EDIT #3:
ER Doc (narrating): "The guy has clearly been in a fight. Torn shirt, black eye, little bit of blood . . ."
Harry L.'s Interjection: Yeah sweetheart. Not to mention the GOLF CLUB STICKING THROUGH HIS HEAD!!!". Sorry, back to our regularly scheduled program.
ER Doc (narrating): "The guy has clearly been in a fight. Torn shirt, black eye, little bit of blood . . ."And then I get a whiff."


"Sir, have you been drinking?"

Aussie Dude: "Yeah, a couple. You know, par for the course."
H.L. Interjection: I kid you not. Dude with a golf club sticking through his head just said "par for the course."

Aussie Dude: "I can't really hear anything out of my right ear. Is that going to be a problem?"

ER Doc: "Sir, you've kinda got something sticking in it."

Aussie Dude: "Is it my 3-Wood?"




EDIT:

Nurse: "It's a driver."

Aussie Dude: "My Driver!?!?! THAT'S MY FAVORITE CLUB! The bloody mongrel! Where is he?! Oh my god!"

ER Doc: "Don't move! Stop moving!"

Aussie Dude: "Oh! He knows that's my favorite club!"

Okay, apparently they were playing for money, Aussie Dude was shaving strokes, both dudes were highly intoxicated (5x legal limit), and cuz breaks the driver so it has a sharp end and shoves it through Aussie Dude's head.

Aussie Dude suffers no real damage other than loss of hearing in one ear.

Although, with these 2 geniuses, who could really tell if there was brain damage, right?

How bout when they had to call maintainence for some bolt cutters so they could cut the ends to fit him in the MRI. Some musclehead shows up with the bolt cutters and about craps himself when he sees what he is going to help with. (I would have used a tube cutter though).

Then when they interview his cousin who was there for treatment (with the police of course), the Doctor was trying to make him feel guilty....Dr. "You know...you almost killed your cousin !".....His reply....."He was shaving strokes...")

Also...when he said he got in a fight on the course...The Dr. says..."with who? King Kong?"

That exchange was one of the most bizzare things I have seen on TV. Just think what would have happened if he stepped in his putting line?

    • Rule 1.2b refers you to a section in the Committee Procedures (Section 5I) that helps explain what a Code of Conduct may (and may not) do.  Defining acceptable behavior (including smoking) and applying Stroke of DQ penalties are certainly within the Committee's authority. That Code of Conduct certainly should be available, either in written form or in a webpage accessible to all.  It may not show up on the "standard local rules" for an organization, the "hard card", as it sounds like its a policy of this particular golf course. Assuming that's the case it should show up on the Notice to Players for this particular event.  If you can't find it, ask someone, send an email, try to find out.   In summary, yes the Committee can DQ (or withdraw) a Player for smoking, even before or between rounds.  But its up to you to go from there, communication is the key here.

    • Hmm... I not sure I completely understand. If the course has a no smoking policy, then he shouldn't smoke at the course.  I'm assuming since you are aware of the policy, it must be written down somewhere.  As far as getting disqualified from the tournament, I would think that would be up to the committee. But it feels like it is within their power to disqualify, so why take the chance?
