Ha ha ha ha. ROTFL. There is discord in everything talked about on Twitter. If there were people talking about making 18th century thimbles, they would be making death threats at each other. That is the nature of discourse, or lack of it, today. Suck it up Chamblee.

I’m thinking that golf should ban Twitter, not because it is interfering with the practice of the game but because it is interfering with the civility of it. Twitter may have originally been a burst of inconsequential information but it has turned into 140 characters of kindling, burning civility to a fine crisp. I can understand the discord involving politics, religion and war but what is there to argue about in golf, I mean besides the fact I am still paid to talk about it for a living?

Maybe he could try forming better opinions, taking more care with his own words, and being less focused on contrarianism solely for the sake of contrarianism. :dance:

LOL - Hey Brandel if twitter bothers you so much all you have to do is turn it off & not participate or view.

Twitter needs a 6 hour delay then.

Twitter is like any medium of communication. When used properly, it can be an amazing tool.

Has anyone ever tweeted Brandel on why he didn't last that long on tour?

Brandel only gets the "twit" part.

He brags he has 20k blocked. I hate guys like that who talk smack but can't handle any themselves.
