Next time I'll consult you on the title.


Next time don't pretend you meant something you didn't and jump horses midstream.

You were basically saying "Michael Phelps dated a WHAT!!!???"

Then.....you saw that not everyone is as prejudiced and pretended to be saying something else.

At least be honest about it.

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

Assumptions make asses out of people, works for you in this case. I brought a topic in and this was the main idea. Erik usually changes titles so I made it to help the search engine find. Take your sour over sensitive response to another thread if you don't like it. Truth is that I could care less what your sexual orientation is as long as all parties are on board and happy. I (and I believe no one else cares, God etc) don't care about what you do with yourself on earth or what you stick inside you. The stigma of what is right or wrong is governed by society and no deity.

@Shorty ,

Please do not escalate this thread into something else.  It was a curious news story that @Valleygolfer posted in the Grill Room.  Every thread in this section doesn't have to become a political flame war.

Thanks for your cooperation.

This person is an attention-seeking moron. Horrible that she didn't alert Phelps before going public. Obviously, the only reason she did it was to embarrass him and further "the cause". This is what I referred to in another thread in terms of LGBT's being a fringe group of 2% of the population but trying to project as mainstream.

I agree in part here. I don't think he's ever spent time with her. He was probably drunk and gave her his phone number. They probably text some small talk and he blew her off. She obviously has two phones already and more than likely text herself the conversation with Phelps' name. He was in rehab and couldn't use a phone apparently and could not refute it or just let it go to fizzle out. Just my speculation. It's is interesting to me to see how much press this has gotten with absolutely no real proof.

Interesting? Yes. Surprising? No. That was the intent.

I know that but it is a lame amount of evidence for the amount of attention

Here's the thing that strikes me as weird, they have the phone that they used to communicate with Phelps locked up? Maybe I'm remembering that wrong, but if that's what really is the case this person really has some issues. What possible reason would you have for doing that?

Seems a bit beyond just "attention seeking" to me. This person seems mentally unstable.

Ya think? Anyone who fabricates a relationship and/or presents a personal situation to the public before telling the party involved is wacked.

Maybe you should contact a moderator and get this merged with the Winter Depression Thread . :-O

I'll be the first to say that his behavior isn't perfect by any stretch of the definition, but… he didn't "come up" with anything. The first post has a link to an article in the Washington Post.

Some 400 miles to the south, we're snowy in St. Louis. Hit a few shots for me!

    • Its simple, YOU are responsible for reporting YOUR score correctly, at every level of golf.  Do you imagine a top pro would really trust anyone else with his score? Without getting too far from the original post, the Rules have been revised every 4 years for decades.  They're continually evaluated, and most changes are in response to changes within the game.  BTW, if wind blows your ball off the green before you've lifted and replaced it, you play from wherever it ends up.  The TV call ins weren't a rule of golf issue, they were a PGA Tour issue, all in an effort to get the call right.  
    • Someone asked what I propose. I think if the bunker is full of rainwater, you get to drop it with no penalty directly in back of the bunker, so you still have a tricky shot of chipping over the bunker. People are talking about local committees and such which we just don’t have at our level. My league and playing partners gave the free drop with no issue. My original purpose of this post was just to understand what the “real” rule is, and I now know. But now I also want to encourage people to see that many long time golf rules are outdated and illogical, and hopefully encourage people to push for change. They made some changes in the last few years, so I’m hopeful the game I love will improve if enough people speak out. A lot to hope for posting in a little forum I know, but you have to start somewhere.
    • You get a penalty stroke because your local committee didn't do their job, they didn't address the specific conditions using the tools available to them within the Rules.  The rulemakers contemplated just this situation, bunkers being so filled with Temporary Water that they're unplayable.  The only way to address it "fairly" is to allow free relief outside the bunker, and they do NOT want to allow that on an everyday basis.  So they write the rules as it is, and allow the Committee to override the normal rule in the rare instance where the bunker really is full.  That's what your "local league" does, they invoke Model Local Rule F-16, which treats flooded bunkers as both GUR and as General Area.  Relief from GUR in the General Area allows relief in the General Area (i.e. outside the re-defined bunker).  Its quite a logical way to approach a relatively rare situation. Separately, consider your concern about temporary Water in the fairway.  I've seen situations in relatively level fairways where the Nearest Point of Complete Relief  from Temporary Water is 30 or 40 yards away, further from the green, even in the rough.   
    • There you go, @yungbuck6. Your hips aren’t really shifted forward and your head tips back. The camera angle isn’t good so what looks like hip slide could actually just be extension towards the ball.
    • But there's more to weight shift than just where you finish. How your weight transfers throughout the swing matters too.  But you're saying you can see it better than a device that can measure it? Got it.  Yeah I'm good here, good luck to whoever tries to coach you.
