Gary Player v. Robert Trent Jones Jr.

[BearQ]

Before this thread gets out of hand with the recent short rant lol. We all have insecurities. It's Normal. Let's carry on laughing at Gary being Gary

[Peanut191]

short people and their insecurities ...

 

Do you have a problem with short people, or the fact most of us are insecure about our height? Maybe it is because society values height, and most good looking women on dating sites indicate they don't want to reproduce with someone shorter than 5'10", yet would rather go out with an 8'11" giant. Yup, most women on match.com by saying that would rather go out with someone who doesn't exist (worlds tallest person is not 8'11" and is female with medical condition), than go out with someone 5'8".

 

Or the reason taller people get better treatment in society, and more respect.

 

Are you too insecure to feel comfortable being insecure about something?

 

Calling a short person insecure about height is about as bigoted as it gets. Do you use racial slurs, and that kind of thing? I bet you hate short people, and are secretly glad you are taller. I implore you to keep your thoughts to yourself on this topic, however, out of respect for other human beings whose bones are simply not as long as your's.

 

Height is a vestigial trait, largely, since we no longer do battle with animals to be able to eat and survive. Taller people are more metabolically-inefficient than short people, consume more food and water, etc.

 

And you know what, if short guys are gonna get ridiculed and trivialized by society, then short women should too. After all, tall women back in the day of hunter & gatherer culture would be able to emerge from the caves and gather more berries, apples, and water than the short women. So how dare men give them a chance?

 

 

There's just no need to remind short people of how people like yourself feel.

 

The word "insecure" is a cliched term. It's freaking bush-league, too.

 

I wish I was a little bit taller

I wish I was a baller

I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her

I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat

And a six four Impala

 

Man, that Randy Newman song must really get Concentric going.

I'm 5'7" and I hate myself.

[djmohab2]

5'8" and you can't win. You sit there and take it, and everyone runs over you. You stand up for yourself and you're Napoleon.

[lumberman2462]

This thread turned weird...

 

I love everybody: short, tall, fat, skinny, bald or hair like Fabio, black, white, gay, straight......+5 hdcp or a hacker.

 

I'm not overly fond of clowns.....

[gvogel]

Player is also complaining about Langer's Champions Tour major record. Player says they should be tied. I don't care much for Player and his constant self-aggrandizement.

I didn't see this-

 

What's he saying?

 

Have a nice week Bro��

RP

Gary is upset that his 3 British Senior Open Championships aren't counted as Senior Majors but Langer's 2 are counted. Player thinks that once they decided that the British Senior Open was now a major, that those Championships he won should now be considered the same. He has a point. When Horton Smith won the first two Masters, the Masters was not considered a Major Championship. But, in retrospect, everybody credits Smith with having won 2 majors.

 

Then Natalie Gulbis has a major.... With that logic.

She has two majors...

 

Would that be two majors and a Major?

[BeerPerHole]

Poor Gary...

Ladies and Gentlemen, Randy Newman...

I think Garys legendary (just ask him) fitness would be too much for RTJ to handle. TKO inside six when RTJ is too tired to get off his stool between rounds.

if you stand instead of sit, you wouldn't look so short.

 

I kid but seriously, take what? Are you in grade school getting bullied or something?

[Pingfitz]

As a cheater, Player has lost any level of respect and credibility. I wonder if lies about his workout routine?

[gvogel]

A couple of insecure, juvenile jerks - both of them.

 

Poor Gary never got the acclaim that he thought that he deserved, because of Arnie and Jack. He still has a chip on his shoulder.

 

Poor RTJ Jr has had big times problems within his own family. Didn't he sue his own brother? Here's a guy who went to Tiger's press conference at Chambers Bay looking for Tiger to say nice things about his golf course, which is not a great golf course.

You mean when you see Adam Scott you don't automatically think, "POPEYE!"?

[ntagger]

He is even giving Napoleon a run for the money... Will it be known as Gary complex going forward?

I read it to mean Augusta as a whole. Maybe Gary snuck in on the keyboard while he was out of the room taking a piss.

[Lionstar]

Player is like all of his course designs; short and crooked.

[Forged4ever]

I think Garys legendary (just ask him) fitness would be too much for RTJ to handle.

Too much for RTJ Jr to handle???

 

Bro, his basic routine and "drop and gimme 50" would be too much for 95-96% of the chuckleheads in here to handle, myself included?

 

Have a great eveing?

[oldmotor]

Player deserves great credit for his career. I just wish it occasionally came from someone other than himself.

This. His act is very old and tiresome.

I'm sure that's exactly how he wanted it to read. I was being rather tongue in cheek with my "technical" comment.
