dear grown man in our golf club house

[fadada1]

you are here as a guest (looking into having a wedding reception). therefore, you need to look presentable. first - tuurn your hat around so that the bill faces OUT. you are not 10 years old, nor are you riding a bike. second - TAKE YOUR F-ING HAT OFF!!!!! you're inside at a private golf club. look like you belong here. wanker.

no man above 15 should wear a hat backwards... unless you're riding a bike.

[jk the sooner fan]

[fadada1]

were his pants hanging low too?

[Boomer.....]

What's the point of the first rule?

[yermom]

[fadada1]

first of all, no adult should have his hat on backwards unless wind dictates it.

second, he's inside a private golf facility. we have standards here. pathetic standards, but standards nonetheless.

he looks like a tool.

[OU4LIFE]

[OCUDad]

I'm with Boomer:

first - turn your hat around
second - take your hat off

Is it permissible to skip step 1 and go straight to step 2? Or do they have to be done in order?

[yermom]

NO! Fight the man!

Wear your hat backwards. It shows that you are not in league with the devil.

Golf is the satan spawn sport.

Seriously, if Satan were to play sports, what would he play?

GOLF, of course!

No doubt about that. Selfish, cruel, evil, exclusive to rich and wasteful and destructive to the environment.

Golf is just devil worship. Wear your hat backwards, always! People can see you don't have 666 stamped on your forehead!!!!

Actually not. I have picketted golf course openings and I will continue to do so.

Maybe you are not aware of how destructive and divisive this issue is in third-world countries.

Bangkok has more than 100 golf courses. And, these golf courses not only took land away from farmers, but continue to steal an unjustified amout of public water.

Irrigation for one acre of golf can be used to grow 10 acres of rice.

These golf courses are club only and only for the very rich and foreigners.

There is very little economic value gained in attracting golf tourism. Sponsors of golf should be ashamed.

Then, there are the pesticides and fertilizers used and discharged into the water system that pollutes and contaminates.

If you like hitting a ball into a hole, try putt-putt golf. Otherwise, it is just selfish use of natural resources.

what kind of propaganda you reading there?
I'm not rich and about 5% of the guys I actually play golf with might be considered wealthy.
you want to read about economic value check out what the tournaments at Southern Hills have brought in to Tulsa.

:confused:

:confused:

We are just looking at it from different perspectives.

Probably if you'd see some of the destruction caused in third world countries and the benefits totally denied to common everyday people (surely different than you and your friends).

From an Oklahoma perspective and as a farmer, I am alarmed at how quickly the water table is falling. Water wells that were dug more than 100 years ago on my family's farm have now gone dry.

People make fun of global warming. There may be some truth in it or not. Still, the key is to secure water resources and golf shouldn't be high on priority list, regardless of the short-term benefits.

[picasso]

I can see where you're coming from being a farmer and you're right. I haven't seen how they affect 3rd world countries.

I'll keep playing though.

[Chuck Bao]

Okay, sorry about the devil spawn crap and I WAS just joking.

There are eco-friendly golf courses, as has been repeatedly pointed out to me on this message board. I just think that people need to think and be aware that the greener greens aren't necessarily the golf ultimate.

And the whole snob factor, meh!

[Boomer.....]

No hats if your grown, then what about almost every PGA player?

I think he said hats turned backwards. could be wrong.
also, it IS rude to wear one indoors. old school anyway.

and I played Mohawk Park's Woodbine yesterday. that course is an improvement to the local enviornment. believe me.

[Boomer.....]

Oh, so under the Fadada Rules of Golf it's cool to wear a hat at a golf course, just not in the club house.

[jk the sooner fan]

is there a shortage of third world rice?

[mdklatt]

is there a shortage of third world rice?

There's probably a shortage of clean, fresh water. There's certainly a water shortage in places like Palm Springs and Scottsdale, which have bajillions of golf courses.

after reading all that, i had to remind myself that golf wasnt a new sport.......has been around ALONG TIME, and still hasnt contributed to the end of man as we know it.....

[sooneron]

The only people over the age of twelve that should wear their hats backwards are catchers and black guys. And that's only because the black guys started it.


I saw this guy wear a backwards baseball cap for an entire 60 minutes segment the other night-

I wouldn't know how to polish Keds or Converse or whatever it is that you're wearing.

Please, you think us upper crust types wear Keds? Silly man. I wear custom made $4200 John Lobb's.

and they need regular cleaning by the shoe boy.

And, you don't tip? Good thing that you're rich and you can just thow the old pair away and buy new.

I'm happy for you.

edited to add: I misunderstood when you said you tip yourself.

Okay...you don't have to speak to me. Just tip well and I will polish, spit shine your shoes.

[sooneron]

This thread took a definite turn for the worst.
I can see where Chuck is coming from, third world-wise. We don't know what happens in those countries. A lot of the time, the pols are so corrupt, they will put up whatever resort that they're told to for the right cash with no looking ahead to the future and the implications on the environment/economy. They gloss it over by saying, "ooh, look at all the chambermaid jobs!"

[OU4LIFE]

I can totally see Chucks point. and in the 3rd world that may very well be the case.

But all you have to do is stop by your local muni on a sunny saturday and check out all the guys in cutoffs and wife beaters and you will quickly realize that it is not a rich man's game....

[OU4LIFE]

I mean, for 15 bucks you get 4 hours of entertainment.

Now, see this is the way that political discussion should go. We have different views and perspectives and we listen to each other and agree to part ways amicably. The shoe stuff was just for silliness sake.

As far as third worlds, it is more complicated as far as Thailand is concerned. The massive building of golf courses all over Thailand in the 1990s, especially around Bangkok, forced the Bank of Thailand to issue an edict that all commercial banks must stop lending to golf courses immediately.

Can you imagine the US Federal Reserve calling all banks in the US in to tell them that they've lent their last dollar to golf course development?

In Thailand, that rule was eventually relaxed, but the damage was already done.

Okay, that's third world.

Hats can be worn in the Men's Card Room. The drinks tend to be stronger in the room anyway and cigars are still allowed in there!

Hats should not be worn in the grill room.

Hats should never... NEVER be worn backwards. "Hey Sparky, you aren't from da hood, you don't look cool in it, and no man who wears flip flops in public is entitled to give ANY opinion regarding fashion."

For a bald guy like me, hats are a requirement on the course.
