Style and Sportsmanship
« on: September 28, 2025, 07:45:24 PM »
I play golf as many do... I was taught at an early age that golf is a gentleman's (inc lady's) game. In general I believe that sportsman should demonstrate as much grace in loss as they do in victory. Fans apparently feel that these ideals are meaningless.

Today during the Ryder Cup finals Heather McMahan, one of the host MC's with a microphone lead the fans in a loud chant of "F---you Rory" referring to Rory McIlroy. There is always a winner and a loser in sport... can't believe its turning into a bunch of mouthy "tools". :mad:
Being male, an accident of birth. Being a man, a matter of age. Being a gentleman, a matter of choice.

Being a repugnant loud mouth is the new fad.

Whats next, face paint and boat horns?

These people lust for attention and resort to immaturity to get it. Not sure how making themselves shunned via stupidity works for that. “I want to be known as a loud mouth idiot”. Congrats on that success. Well done.

Personally, I’m exhausted with feeling embarrassed FOR the these type of people.

I’ve become convinced the human brain is devolving, these people act like chimps, no offense to chimps. They are proud of being stupid, because lazy minded and not thinking at all is much easier. These people avoided maturity with epic success. Well done.

Now I miss 12-20 hr days at work that spared me exposure to normalizing stupid.

What makes you think he is new or alone. He’s a poster child. You did.
