Jordan Spieth gets into it with 'scums' seeking autograph

[wetfairwayshardgreens]

That's nice Jordan gave more of a PG-13 answer then his typical scripted G rated answer.

dang son...straight fire with his 2nd post

I get the dont want another mans autograph especially in the situation like Jordan was talking about. Here is my question. I was an intern for an NFL team and throughout the year we couldnt ask for autographs. One day a year they let you get 3 items signed. I took 2 footballs and a picture of one of the players to get signed. I really wanted the footballs signed by the team not to sell but to put up in my room as a cool memento. Is this pathetic?

[MMB1500]

I didn't know "scum" could be pluralized.

[Forged4ever]

Haha, multiple threads on the same topic are good sometimes, like

a plan B in case the first one gets thrown in cooler. :D

LMAO, I missed this?

 

And so has the Prophet spoken, lmao

 

FWIW, while I agree with Jordan, it is what it is and as long as there is a demand for this, you'll get these types of guys.

 

Where I get off the train and would take severe action is when the individual speaks and acts as though they are out in some gutter bar. They would be gone immediately as the caddy or another fan can get an official and it sounds as though some of these guys are "regulars" and recognized by the Players/Caddies so I'd take their picture, sort of a "persona non grata" pic sheet if ya will, circulate it with his and any others taken at the stops and let the Players/Caddies/Officials report them when they appear at Tourneys and they can be escorted off of the property and if they are formally banned from a PGA Tour event, yes they can be arrested and charged with trespassing(One such individual was banned from Oakmont's property and any events held there. He was from just outside of Cleveland, lol. This banned clown, KYMs and the Brownies, what a town LMAO ??).

 

I'm speaking to the rude crude lil dudes-

 

Have a great weekend Bro?

 

My Best,

Richard

I'm ready for the barrage of HATE I'll receive for this post, but here goes...

 

 

Speith's pompous behavior just shines light on his true character. Who gives a flip why a person wants it? I sat and watched the King (Arnie) sign FOREVER at the TPC here and he was in his 80s at the time, didn't let one person miss out of his fantastic signature, no questions asked. It's a pity people with true class like the late Arnold Palmer are getting more rare and the new(er) generations are increasingly entitled little punks. A true pity.

 

Honestly, I was somewhat a Spieth fan...and then this. You spoiled, OVERPAID little punk...maybe some day you will realize you are beyond Godly gifted and blessed to have the opportunity to take an hour or two out of the week or two you spend the months you play during the season to display a little bit of integrity.

 

 

Won't really be rooting for you any longer, JORDAN. :rolleyes:

[Joe85]

And FTR, Jordan, no, you absolutely DON'T have to sign a single damn autograph EVER, that is your right.

 

 

 

But again, it is just a damn shame you are so shortsighted and entitled how truly sad you really look.

So he's a spoiled, overpaid little punk because he called out a guy that was cursing amidst the kids waiting for autographs? Little harsh, ya think

No hate here. I couldn't agree more. Jordan has become quite the diva over the last year and a half.

That's not what I was referring to. I was more responding to his remarks about profiteers, or alleged profiteers (in his mind).

[SHIVAN]

Why a grown man wants the signature of another man is beyond me. Unless it's on the bottom of a check.

 

I asked Cal Ripken Jr. for an autograph one time. I'm a fan of his, a fan of baseball, and expected to have kids one day with whom I could share the memorabilia.

 

I guess the millions and millions of fans who sent letters to Arnie were weird, right?

[Doyle Hargraves]

It's interesting that Jordan is complaining about those who profit off other's success.

 

Is Jordan profiting off Tiger' s success?

dont you think Mr Palmer would have taken excpetion to some jerkoff pushing kids out of the way and then dropping an F bomb in front of them ? I know he would... for petes sake! H emay have declined to comment in the press conference so it may not have made news... but certainly dont fool yourself and think he never told some jackass to stepp off....you could see it in his eyes .. that man never took any s*** from anyone... wow.... what an idea... that someone should ignore behavior like that ...

by that logic we are all profiting off the founding fathers success... which is both true and ignorant as can be..

So he should just smile and sign over and over again to fund a bunch of DBags who push kids out of the way, swear, and trash talk him?

Weird.

Ok. So these guys, alleged profiteers as you call them, who in the process of seeking out autographs for profit, push kids out of the way for autographs and cuss in front of them, are not the scum. It is Spieth, who called the guy and guys like him(alleged profiteers) out for that behavior who is the bad guy, or spoiled, overpaid little punk. Got it.

Jordan isn't getting a financial benefit from Tiger's past success?

 

Purses exploded because of Tiger. That's an undeniable fact.

I'm not saying that Spieth(and all other tour players) aren't getting any financial benefit from higher purses/endorsement deals that likely wouldn't have been as high, without Tiger's influence. But, trying to connect the dots from Tiger's success to Spieth's gain certainly takes a large leap in logic from comparing that to Jordan taking issue with an autograph seeker cussing around kids.

[jmck]

I also don't get why the first thread was nuked. I thought we were all doing a decent job being polite to each other? Certainly nowhere near as contentious as some (most? all?) of the various Tiger threads get.

 

Anyway, I'll just restate my opinion that I don't particularly like Spieth--no judgement on the man himself because I don't know him, I just mean that I don't particularly like watching him play golf on my electric teevee machine and give interviews where everything is "we" this and "we" that--but I think he's 100% in the right on this one, and good on him for calling out those dudes.

 

Cheers to all! Spring will be here soon!

Not sure why the first one got put in the cooler either. Definitely was less contentious than many of the Tiger threads.

I think we may have found the guy that he refused to sign for.

[tigers9iron]

with the outrageous numbers of As*hol*s and Dbags at tour events and in society in general for that matter, its amazing these guys stop and sign at all
