DO NOT MESS WITH JIM GRAY

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnbK3wc9vps

I hate the guy. His interviews are always awkward and stupid. Vijay Singhs interview at the AT&T; was a classic awkward one

He began to question DJ and his caddy about the penalty during the round.  Had he waited until after they were done, it probably wouldn't have been as big a deal.  A reporter walking up to a player and his caddy during a round and asking about the penalty they took is tantamount to a shoving a mic in someone's face during a perp walk, there's absolutlely no place for it in a professional tournament.

I wish Pete Rose would have laid a beatdown on him for the stunt he pulled in '99.  Gray is someone who needs to be put in his place in the worst way.

OK, agreed. That's a total dick move.

Ironically, the Gray interview with Rose, and Pete's professionalism during it, probably had a more positive influence on Rose's image than Gray was intending.

If the story about Gray sticking his hand in Pavin's wifes face is true I would have smacked him around then but if I was DJ's caddie he would have been eating that mic real quick. The guy is terrible him and Mike Lupica should get their own show on versus at midnight so no one would have to suffer through it.

Is this the same caddie who let Dustin hit out of a bunker on the 72nd hole of the PGA Championship? Same guy that abandoned Dustin in the same situation?

The caddie needs to grow a pair.

Good defense is a good offense. Seems that is what is going on here. Deflect anger to a third party, right out of the I farked up play book.

    • Day 12: stole about 10 minutes in the garage, doing my drill with foam balls. 
    • Day 116 12-6 Still working on getting to lead side. Tonight I also tried some skill work with clubface awareness.  Hit foam balls. 
    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
