Think of it as your child being as smart as all get out - smarter than you - who wastes that brainpower sitting on the couch doing nothing. That's why people are upset with him.

People will see that when a guy is fat. People refuse to see it when it’s just a lazy guy . Both have used around 60 % of their potentials.

Rory may not have taken advantage of his full talents, but not because he's lazy to the point of self destruction like Daly; he just tends to check out mentally at times. I think he's looking at the big picture and trying to figure out what he's willing or not willing to sacrifice to be the top dog.

LOL! Since you picked Daly to win the event opposite the Open Championship do you realize he was given a cart by the PGA Tour for the Barbasol?

hed have to finish a round first...baby steps

Big John asked if he could get a cart, got no, is grumbling a little but seems to bite the bullet. Have always kind of liked him. This does not change that. But it would be cool if he showed up 100 pounds less next season on Champions.

 

In interviews and such he seems like a reasonably sensible fellow. Wonder how he got into, and seems to maintain that kind of lifestyle that he seems to live.

I had a hip replaced at 50. He isn't too young. And his liver problem was due to his alcoholism not his Aleve issue or a combination of both. He is a walking heartache with that gut of his as well. He might be too overweight for the knee replacement. Got a friend who has to lose weight before they replace his. Dr. orders.

Actually no fat is good but any you eat on a Keto diet isn't going to give you a weight issue. Its the oxymoron of the Keto diet. I'm doing it currently to loose 25 lbs and miss them carbs. Luckily Jameson has no carbs.

I eat 70-75% fat. 5'10" 165 lbs. Appetite control is easy when almost all your calories come from fat and protein. Bloodwork is perfect as well.
