That's odd. I wonder if the kangaroo was okay or if it was sick or something.

I think the 'roo was just interested in the grass, and when the golfer walked up, it was like "What?"

I have deer that come in my yard to munch and they are not particularly afraid of us if we don't move suddenly. The only thing that makes them move is my daughter's little 6 pound dog that gets really pissed at the deer in "her" yard.

I don't think it was sick, it was just really really used to being around humans.  I've played some courses where geese or ducks are the same way.

The weirdest thing is the bizarre shape of that "tongue" going into the bunker with vertical sides and what looks like artificial grass on it!

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Didn't notice it at first, but you're absolutely right.  The other disturbing thing was the guy's bunker shot spraying sand all over the Roo and it doesn't move.  And it was a crappy shot to boot. Take a lesson.

:-) There may have been a bit of nerves involved in his shot.  He probably didn't want to thin it and hit the roo.

      Phil Mickelson Booted out of Farms Golf Club

      By Shindig · Posted

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.

      No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
