He was really funny. I had forgotten about him.
Shame on me.

Funny one DB

Maybe I'm just pissy but why does every thread get turned into something ridiculous? I don't know who red button is and I don't care either. Dangerbob should have his own folder for his nonsense.

Saw this on Yahoo Sports...is this a real story...I don't follow Twitter at all...

Christina Kim kicks up a little officiating controversy on Twitter - Devil Ball Golf - Golf - Yahoo! Sports

...wow...I wonder who it was...I'm surprised Christina would tweet something like that...if she doesn't want people to name names and speculate on who she is talking about then she should never make the post in the first place...does anybody here follow Christina on Twitter, did she really post this...even if she felt this, I know she's smart enough to know you can't post something like that and not have people want to know who you are talking about...

We've talked about this before, but does anyone here read the life on tour blog? That guy is a piece of work. He constantly complains about the Asians, but yet won't turn down a chance to caddy for them. This week even he is caddying for one, and he doesn't even have the respect to spell her name correctly in one of his posts. Her name is Ran Hong, and in one post he writes Rang Hong. Guess those Asian names are too tough to remember for him.

Seriously, if your gonna complain about them all the time, don't be a hypocrite and say they are killing the tour when they are the ones giving you a paycheck for letting you caddy for them. All the other 'non-asian' players he caddies for usually shoot in the 80's.

I follow her on Twitter and yes, she did post all that - they didn't include the last post she made saying she was "off Twitter" for awhile because of all the hullaballoo - seems she got a tad angry that people wanted to voice their opinions about her comments. Not sure what she expected.

He's a constant source of amusement with his hypocritical ways. Why any of the Asians would even consider him as a caddy after his comments against a lot of them is beyond me - when he got Ran Hong's bag, he pretty much said on his blog that it was "better than nothing" - the Asian players should boycott him with a vengeance.

No DJ, you're not being pissy, this happens all the time, I've learned to pretty much ignore it, but if you're going to post stuff like this, at least get the man's name right - it's BUTTONS, not Button.

Oh, Christina. You know I admired her gumption in stating her mind on the matter the first time. Although she should have talked to the official to get clarification before unsheathing her knife. I think her recommended punishment of being barred from the tour is mildly irrational. Fined yes. Maybe if it's really bad a shot penalty for abuse. If it's a tirade and there are threats then maybe even disqualified from the tournament with further punishment under review. But barred from the tour? Ease up there Nurse Ratched. Also, if you're going to go on the record about an incident at least have the spine to name the player. Otherwise the speculation might create a bit of a crapstorm. Not that naming them wouldn't either but at least if you're going to stir up some do it with a bit of forthright dignity rather than being a coy turkey about it. Clean up that spit Christina.

Putter and DJ.. I see nothing wrong with a little humor on a forum if there is no
personal attacks.

Look around life is way to serious anyway.

There is an old saying.. You can look at life two ways a comedy or a tragedy.
I chose not to take life to seriously especially on a forum.

Christina Kim is a great example.. She is always happy go lucky for the most
part (humor and fun like DB) but somebody stepped way out of line.

If someone started on you he would probably jump in and help you with humor.

Please lighten up if it bugs you don't read it.
