What a Tool - Jason Dufner Didn't Watch Ryder Cup

[Zeph]

I'm not on twitter, and maybe call me old fashioned, but I believe that by definition someone's goofy posts and antics on twitter do not constitute a personality, since you know, a personality has to be expressed IN PERSON and all.

Yet you judge him based on even less information, purely by how he acts on the course, in interviews and what little information you get from articles written about him?

uhh, that's not how it works. Technically, there's no such thing as having no personality, but it's ok to think what you what suits you.

And for all the folks saying it's common for players to not watch their respective peers play once their season is done, you clearly miss the point of why the RC is supposed to be different and why I take issue with public indifference to the event from former players. Europe and many many of its former players are publicly engrossed by and supportive of the event, meanwhile we've got this clown. Night and day, but I'm tired of explaining my position on here.

Care to elaborate on how it's suppose to be different? Patriotism? When/if it ever gets to the same level as the soccer world cup, then everyone will to watch.

I try to live in the real world, not the twitter world, so I try to base my opinions of people based on how they conduct themselves in said real world. I don't think this is that unreasonable nor do I do think it should be that objectionable if I don't care for the guy. We've all got golfers we don't like, he's near the top of my list for some of the reasons I've mentioned.

You are entitled to not care for the guy.  If you choose to make your reasons know, as you have, others are then entitled to consider whether your reasons justify your conclusion.

It is not objectionable for you to hold your opinion, but neither is it objectionable for other people to disagree and express that disagreement.

I object.

The guy is hurt, decompressing from the grind of golf and he makes an offhand remark that he didn't watch the Ryder Cup because he was busy doing other things and it is worth four pages on a thread? Really?

Get a life. That's what Jason Dufner is busy doing.
