skyrider 0 #1 October 12, 2010 Obama has recently appointed a Golf Czar and major rule changes in the game of golf will become effective October 1, 2010. This is only a preview as the complete rule book is being rewritten as we speak. Here are a few of the changes: Golfers with handicaps: - below 10 will have their green fees increased by 35%. - between 11 and 18 will see no increase in green fees. - above 18 will get a $25 check each time they play. The dollar amount placed in bets will be as follows: -for handicaps below 10, an additional $10. -between 11 and 18, no additional amount. -above 18, you will receive the total amount in the pot even if you do not play. The term "gimme" will be changed to "entitlement" and will be used as follows: -handicaps below 10, no entitlements. -handicaps from 11 to 17, entitlements for putter length putts. -handicaps above 18, if your ball is on green, no need to putt, just pick it up. These entitlements are intended to bring about fairness and, most importantly, equality in scoring. In addition, a Player will be limited to a maximum of one birdie or six pars in any given 18-hole round. Any excess must be given to those fellow players who have not yet scored a birdie or par. Only after all players have received a birdie or par from the player actually making the birdie or par, can that player begin to count his pars and birdies again. The current USGA handicap system will be used for the above purposes, but the term 'net score' will be available only for scoring those players with handicaps of 18 and above. This is intended to 'redistribute' the success of winning by making sure that in every competition, the above 18 handicap players will post only 'net score' against every other player's gross score. These new Rules are intended to CHANGE the game of golf. Golf must be about Fairness. It should have nothing to do with Ability. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanuckInUSA 0 #3 October 12, 2010 Once Obama has finished making golf fair for everyone, the messiah must fix College Football. After all it is not right that a team like the "Valparaiso Crusaders" loses every game they play by an average score of 42-7. It's not fair and College Football should not be about winning. In Obama's Amerika everyone in College Football should be treated as an equal. All games should end with the score 0-0 to ensure nobody's feelings are hurt.

Sad Actually - they are going to be taking the competition of keeping score copletely out of football. The next ones scheduled are Baseball, followed by Basketball, then a blanket across all sports, including professional sports. That includes the USPA Nationals. The only place we will be able to compete for a score will be overseas, or in our neighboring countries.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #25 October 12, 2010 QuoteSo, you have no words on the subject . . . What do you want me to say; that it's a lie and detail all the reasons Obama isn't going to change the rules of golf? Just pointing out that it's an old joke from the internet should have made point. Further, by knowing where the joke comes from we don't have to assume you wrote it. You're now off the hook for any stupidity associated with the actual words of it - just for posting it. What fascinates me about jokes like this is someone makes them . . . they sort of float around . . . then one day -BOOM- it's suddenly copied and pasted on a bajillion blogs all at once. Not that it's a conspiracy of uncreative bloggers, but holy crap they create very little in the way of original content. Most of them are just reposting something another guy said. It's the same way with this "joke" and the Lewis resignation letter. The blogoshpere is just horrible like that.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
