I hope he does time in jail. He deserves that much.

I couldn't figure out in the article if this was more jobs lost than expected, but I think it is saying that it is.

Also a quote from the comment section:

trump defenders:

"He didn't say that."

"And if he did, he didn't mean that."

"And if he did, you didn't understand it."

"And if you did, it's not a big deal."

"And if it is, others have said worse."
"Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan

Coast guard skipper Bill Bates said he misread the danger when Selwood reported his predicament.

"He said, 'I'm injured, I've broken my arm, I've got lacerations and there's a shark in my boat,'" Bates said.

"Often a fisherman will bring a small shark on board - maybe 2 or 3 feet - and they're still ferocious. That's what I was expecting, but I was totally wrong," he added.


Yeah, it was actually a 9 foot 440 pound white shark came flying into a small fishing boat and started thrashing around.

Tiger Woods arrested for DUI again lol

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4552628/Tiger-Woods-arrested-DUI.html

It's tough to feel sorry for the A-hole,
since he blew his career in 2009. He
still makes $50mil a year in endorsements
and is worth $740 mil according to Forbes.
His golf days are gone, just join the senior
tour. Open your own course and teach
private lessons for $1000 an hour.

Needs to get off the sauce. John Daly still sober. He's the only other golfer I know with a public drinking problem. No doubt there are some others.

Yeah, that's his only problem. Not.
He's a physical wreck, he has more
problems than an 80 year old. He
just had back surgery a month ago,
add that to the rest of his injuries.
He's done on the pro circuit, been
done since his nervous breakdown
after the world found out he's a
scumbag.

Well, ... found out his Mr. Clean image was simply a public relations program. I think he lost a few contracts to 'morals clauses' or stuff like that but all that happened is he had lots of women who let him not waste time with foreplay due to his public personna as Mr. Clean when in reality he was super active.

Golfing has to maintain that image that it is not like those other sports. Gentleman's game, or something. I love golf (a pleasant walk ruined) but it's played by humans like any other sport. (of course everyone should chuckle at the idea of Gentleman's Club anyway.)

If they trained golfers better they shouldn't get hurt in their career normally short of taking a 140mph golf ball to the head. It's not sport of extreme sets like tennis. Or contact. Or other players running into you. It's body mechanics. It's tiring to play extra rounds, but it shouldn't damage your body. Not like distance running either, which is worse than any golf walk

I can take a swing with a club and pull a muscle. But I can also control that and avoid it.
