Thanks JG

For handling us (former) hecklers in the way you did... with grace, with elegance, with humor... with a butt whipping on the golf course...

Most of all, thanks for not taking the Ken Griffey Jr. route to dealing with hecklers.

In Friday night's 2-0 loss at Los Angeles, a Dodgers fan sitting close to the Reds' dugout had fun heckling Griffey and Griffey responded by giving the fan a unique piece of baseball memorabilia - a jock strap.

Too funny...

Do golfers wear jock straps?

There's a ball joke in there somewhere, but I am not going near it.

First, I have seen some swings that require athletic support. Second, I do not heckle, too proletarian... I provide satirical feedback. Lastly, anyone who made it on the PGA Tour has surely self actualized enough to tolerate a few "butter tits" comments. Hell, he plays golf for a nice livin and obviously has an intelligent, funny, well-balanced spouse (you truely outkicked your coverage on the one JG), so don't cry for me freakin Argentina. I am bringing back the sarcasm to put our hefty half-wedger not just in the top 25, but a top 10er. He appears to have righted the ship, time for a man-sized belly flop into the lake after sinking that 2 foot par putt for the 1-stroke victory. You go phat man!

JG... there is definitely grass roots support for you taking a dive into the nearest lake after your next victory.

JS said...

Hell, if Perks or Hank could finish in a top 10 I might consider a jump into a lake.

Equal likelihood they find water on Mars as Craig Quirks or Shank Kuehne victory jumps in a lake here on 3rd rock.

I know I would support a jump-in- the-lake-athon if JG pulls out a victory!!! Hell, I may even consider a big-fella belly flop myself even for a top 10!!!
