I beat the crap out of a Freeper in golf today |
|
I played golf today in the lovely weather we're having in Madison.
It was a popular day to play since it is probably the last weekend where it will be POSSIBLE to play in this weather zone outside. As an aside, I love golf for its challenges from a physics standpoint as well as it's nice challenging nature in a game.
Anyway, I showed up to play and had to join up with a threesome (lazy bastards in a cart) to play a round. Somehow Obama came up on the first tee and a couple dudes started railing on Obama and Acorn and Reverend Wright.
From a golf purist standpoint, politics in the ungentlemanly approach is forbidden... at least where I grew up. But I digress...
So this one guy, Allen, starts railing on Obama as we are waiting to tee off. I interjected that I support Obama and did lots of grassroots work for him in 2007 and 2008. He is stunned! "Wow, somebody still supports that Marxist!", he droned like a penisless Beck fan. I said "we kicked your ass in 2008 and we will kick you into the rough in 2010!" Awkward laughter ensued.
So off we went to play a round of golf.
I had the best round I've had in years. We were betting holes and Allen owed me $300 ($50 for best hole) after the front nine. I was doing scratch golf (doing par) to his occasional double and triple bogey sloppiness.
Still, he would jibe me when I was teeing off about how "Obama is destroying America" and "Why aren't we just fighting the enemy in Afghanistan..." and "Your socialist healthcare is going to make America fail..." and other jabs that were built on well-developed masturbatory antics from Limbaugh, Beck and Hannity.
So on the game went... and on I kicked his ass.
When the final hole (a 200 yard par three with a pond on the left) came, I said "this one is for Barack" and hot the ball about 10 feet from the pin. Allen hit it into the pond THREE TIMES! After I holed out and watched Allen try to make a 7, I just simply told him "don't fuck with Obama fans, chump"... I kid you not, but as I said that, his golf bag fell off its cart and golf balls rolled off and people around him laughed.
I actually think I remember Allen stopping by my Obama table at the Madison Farmers Market a while back telling me that Obama could never win because he's black.
I. Kicked. His. Ass.

38. Good story. I like fiction. Strangers don't bet strangers $50/hole. |

You must have rattled him and screwed with his concentration. Remember that, the next time you play with him (if ever). :toast:

11. Good story! The weather was nice today - I drove a bucket of balls myself |
|
I thought passing a critical bill would be an inspiring story, but it turns out that reading about a round of golf has been the only bright spot today.
