It took one page of debate for us to get to Social Darwinism as a defense for colonialism. Good lord.

'Overrated and overpaid!': Saudi rebels heckled at US Open as golf's civil war rumbles on
“You’re overrated and overpaid!” Bryson DeChambeau has heard far worse in his colourful, controversial career, but with the Saudi rebel circuit dominating the agenda in the golf world, each and every barb being delivered in this US Open is bound to be accredited overblown significance.
sports.yahoo.com
Phil is not used to this level of heckling. Even during the peak of his rivalry with Tiger he still had an adoring fanbase pushing him on. In the midst of Ryder Cup chaos there was always the knowledge you were fighting for country and your teammates.
This is different. It's bugging him enough to shoot 78.
Guys like Rory, Rahm, Justin and Jordan are the white hats out there now.
You guys are exhausting. Just follow the rules which are made by the people who own and pay for this site. We just enforce them. There’s really no conspiracy here and everyone who replies to posts that clearly violate forum rules just makes it more of a mess.

Come on…a long layoff, a tough course, and he’s just getting older is why he shot 78 IMO.'Overrated and overpaid!': Saudi rebels heckled at US Open as golf's civil war rumbles on

Mostly rust would be my guess…his putting was terrible.
I didn’t realize they were the GW Colonialisms. If so I think they should consider just being the Colonials.
So back to your complete lack of intellectual honesty…

Here is something new I learned today. The MLS is now considered a “major” US professional sport.

I don't really care one way or another about the name, but they did and they changed it. Good for them! Why does it bother snowflakes so much that they decided to change their name?

He hasn't forgotten how to play golf in a few months of playing privately.

Ok, I'm gonna blow your mind here. The people who did all the Colonialism? They were the Colonials! I guess you thought it was just a coincidence that they shared the first eight letters, but nope! I'm sure you weren't just pretending not to see the connection because you value intellectual honesty so much. Sorry I didn't clear that up earlier.

It's obviously triggering when people have different opinions.

Those evil colonists were more "progressive" than the natives who took their land from other natives in violent conflicts and enslaved them en masse.
It's almost like the Woke cultists are wildly ignorant of history and are merely drowning in resentment, tribalism, and open racism.

Zach Johnson throws shade on author Rick Reilly to perfection
Fifteen years may have past, but Zach Johnson hasn't forgotten Rick Reilly's bad take.
sports.yahoo.com
Reilly is a great guy and a brilliant, hilarious writer. He apologized and ate crow years ago, more than once. Handled it with class.
Seems kind of dickish for Johnson's father to show up at Reilly's event--a signing for his book about loving the game--to keep f***ing with him about it.

seems like Reilly took it as he should have (as good natured ribbing), instead of being offended.Zach Johnson throws shade on author Rick Reilly to perfection

Great point about the publicity…..I would not have known about this book otherwise….
My position on this one….he took a shot a ZJ’s career prospects early and blew it….so as long as ZJ is still actively teeing it up, that potential for zingers stays open lol….

Assuming that people only care about the treatment of Native Americans because they thought they were progressive says more about your own conceptions of morality than anything about the "woke cultists." The implication that you think where a group is on a political spectrum determines whether or not it's ok to subjugate them is frightening.
