My first reaction is, who the hell cares. My second reaction is to want to slap Martha Burke and tell her to shut up.

Thoughts?

Don't care, not surprised, knew it was coming soon enough.

This situation worked out like it was supposed to, e.g. no government involvement, congressional hearings, and all that BS. The private market told Augusta that they don't care for their policies and made those feelings clear with money. If you want to have your exclusive club then have it; just be ready for others to protest in some form.

Did wdprice really think there was some possibility of government involvement?

Come on dude

8/20/2012 4:01:03 PM

^^Meh, saw it on a couple of sites, saw it wasn't posted here yet, so I posted it. I'm not a huge golf fan honestly, but I am glad that a private club was allowed to do what it wanted rather than be bullied or sued into something.

8/20/2012 4:03:45 PM

Yeah I bet Augusta was really struggling on the financial front. Good thing they listened to the free market and took heed!

8/20/2012 4:04:31 PM

jesus, everythings about politics with this wdprice joker

8/20/2012 4:07:35 PM

Don't have to be struggling to still want more money and less negative press. These boys didn't do this out of the goodness of their hearts.

Do I think the government was going to get involved? I don't know, probably not, but they've stuck their heads in enough issues that didn't need government intervention, so it wouldn't have surprised me.

Meh, everything is politics.

of course you don't know, you've proven many times you dont know shit. the only thing you care about is pushing your own political agenda in conversations where it has no bearing

hey psycho

8/20/2012 11:01:11 PM

thats not very nice jibbles, why you trying to derail the thread?

8/20/2012 11:07:27 PM

that makes no sense, your argument doesnt have a leg to stand on

8/20/2012 11:09:59 PM

it certainly does have a leg to stand on, luckily I'm skinny so that all I need

8/20/2012 11:14:57 PM

what does you being skinny have to do with your horrible logic?

8/20/2012 11:17:22 PM

oh, I didnt realize we were being serious. at what point did I use "horrible logic"?

8/20/2012 11:18:43 PM

you call me jibbles, I call you psycho... then you accuse me of being the one to derail the thread.

8/20/2012 11:20:02 PM

thats not logic, thats just fucking around...BUT you did start it by calling me a contrarian which doesnt really fit

8/20/2012 11:21:30 PM

of course it does, you do it all the time, and admitted as much on FB a few days ago.

and no, my statement didnt because you all were already arguing with wdprice and that was already off topic

[Edited on August 20, 2012 at 11:24 PM. Reason : d]

8/20/2012 11:22:38 PM

aha, okay, in this instance I don't think it fits. I really do think wdprice is an idiot, not just arguing to argue

8/20/2012 11:23:51 PM

Could you guys stop pissing into each others mouths for a few seconds and discuss what it's going to be like for Condi in that locker room?
