The original posts weren't even anywhere out of line. There's nothing to object to.

And you never make rude jokes with your friends? Are you a member of a Nunnery? Life is meant to be enjoyed. I honestly can't understand your logic.

I don't demean other races or the sexual orientation of others. Ever. If you think that's OK and you enjoy that sort of humor then that's your issue. I get plenty of enjoyment out of life, I don't need to be sexist to do so.

Nobody in this thread demeaned other races or the sexual orientation of others. Are we even in the same thread

Where's the sexism? The only thing i saw was someone commentating that she is apparenly a lesbian. Is homosexuality a hushed up topic in your family? People can talk about this stuff openly, you know.

There was no "demeaning" of other races or sexual orientation in this thread.

I know. That was in response to deasy55's post about making rude jokes with your friends. But yes, joking about Kelly Tilghman's sexual orientation is out of bounds IMO.

Seriously guys? C'mon, this thread should have died with the announcement that there would be no announcement. The only thing that came out of it was that Steniy is joining Excel Sports Management.

Excuse me? Since when does rude jokes = demeaning of races or social orientation? I make rude jokes with my friends. Included in those friends is a gay person and a person of asian decent.

The 'announcement' was kinda like a balloon with all the air let out of it.  On another note....is it not ironic that MSchott is being quite defensive towards certain comments when M. Schott (Marge Schott) was one of the most bigoted sports franchise owners of the late 20th century IIRC.  I'm just saying....

FYI, M is the first letter of my first name and Schott is my last name. no relation to Marge. No irony.

I can't believe this thread took up 3 full pages. Some people need to learn life lessons, and the fact that they are adults and are still immature babies speaks for itself. We have no business talking about sexual orientation on this website. It's about GOLF.

And thanks to you there were about 20 extra messages about her orientation.  Well done.

But then again, what the hell do I know?

Not his fault. All he did was try to end it in the first place. But some people just keep talking and talking and then in turns into an argument.

    • 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."
