I think a mini-Tiger Woods sprouted from my loins!

Did I phrase that poorly?
Anyhow, if no one is going to post in the sports forum (at least a sports-oriented topic) then I can start things off. First, it should be understood that I am not athletic nor do I burn off the donuts I eat regularly. But my four year old son is seriously into golf... has been since he was 2. Every day he wants to play. It started with our yard but then he eventually hit the balls into the road or neighbors yards. Then we went to the park, but by early this summer he was driving the ball 50+ yds so he outgrew that place as well. Now we go to the driving range where I fork out lots of money to hit balls.
We also go to the free practice greens at a few courses and he is a true natural - which is why I think he is a prodigy like Woods. The first day he ever putted - maybe the second that he even held a putter - he made a 60' and a 35' putt as well as a large number of shorter ones. More importantly though, he showed that he could easily modulate his speed to what was required. I am constantly amazed. Now we are practicing chipping and he shows the same control in this realm as well. About 3-4 days a week I pick him up from day care and we practice for an hour before going home for dinner. I need to stress though -- I do not push him. Encourage maybe, but I never led him to this.
Oh yeah, he also loves watching golf and knows many players by name. The way I see it, I'd rather have him watch something that is not flashing a new image in his face every half a second (yes, I know, some of you do not watch at all, but that's not our case). I've even started playing a little bit now (its been 18 years) so I can be ready for him.
So, any golfers out there? -
I f'kin' hate golf!! .....waste of a good walk.
There are about 10,239 better things I could be doing with my time including bank robbery. Yeah thats right I went there... I'd rather do 25 years for armed robbery than play a round of golf. It's crap.... like watching someone die of old age; you can't stop looking at your watch.
However if your wee man diggs it then good for him, encourage the wee lad. Just wait till the spotty teenage years with all the horny hormones, golfers don't get chicks; they get promotions. "Yes sir, good shot sir, I think a 3 wood sir, may I lick your arse sir, oh thank you sir"
Thats golf... na not really but golf is one of those things where even if your a fat middle aged semi-bald accountant you can shout to the man with perfect teeth, $300 haircut and in charge of promotions and say.... "up for a round Nigel ol' buddy"
yeah you get a lot of promotional pull with golf. -
lol. Your protest is duly noted. Fortunately for me my game will never be good enough to warrant a promotion. I'd hate to fall into that trap.

golfers don't get chicks
Hmm... Actually I think hotness of "getting" a chick may be proportional to how good your golf game is...
Enter Elin Nordegren (Tiger Woods), Amy Mickelson (Phil Mickelson), and Sonya Toms (David Toms)

see that middle golf guy above I bet he's got socks older than that bird.... that will never last, he'll pop his clogs before she'll graduate from hair dressing college.
Took me a while to notice there were pensioners in those pictures. Look at the fashion sense of these guys... save your wee boy from that life, get him on da' streets hooked on crack and hip hop rap cos yo' those mofo's got da sick threads fo'real. Look at them though, you wouldn't even get clothes like that down the charity shop, they wouldn't take them ... thats my dad!! thats worse than my dad! thats my dad dancing at a wedding!!!
The first lassie, the one thats well greased up with the chip fat (fries), you'd be struggling to keep your grip on that frilly. Like a bar of soap! You'd sneak up, like maybe slippyness won't notice you approaching, and then you'd make a grab and then it's just a matter of momentum and chip fat, exactly like chasing a bar of soap around the bath. Worth the chase mind, aye. Bet she looks bogging without her slap on.
What do you think? those birds... think it's because the guys are good at golf like some sort of sport stars or do you think some manner of wallet is involved? -

Well, in the case of the chip fatted one she didn't need the money as she is a very successful model. However, she and Tiger have some kids now so I think family was part of it. Tiger is a very nice person - and ripped too. Or maybe she heard he was hung?
Anyhow, as for her being greased up with chip fat... as far as I'm concerned that's just icing on the cake! I mean, the only thing that tops a model is a model that tastes like chips.* Two-fer!
Re: Phil's clothes... I can't argue with you there. Although it does look suspiciously close to what I wear to work.
*One exception: if the model tastes like fish and chips. Man! did I just write that?
Howdy, Stranger!
