They were literally deflated yesterday - it's almost like they dislike him so much that the reality of having gone too far the day before had sunk in and they were clinging to "don't like the look" (Faldo) and whatever the heck new versions of arguments contradicted by facts Brandel was saying, he has more positions than the Kama Sutra.

Almost like Reed derangement syndrome.😉

Hey Jim Nantz - your are going bald, getting old and losing your looks. 

 

You receding hairline - "I don't like the look."   Phony.

Yeah, this is from BC's Twitter feed.  "a pall had been cast"  Really?  who cast it?  You? "Sir" Nicky?  give me a break, these jokers think golf is way more important than it is, step back to reality.  The self importance displayed by BC and Faldo makes me is funny, Nantz is just about Nantz.  These jokers could have totally flipped the script and talked about how well PR performed under the scrutiny, but they made it hollow.  

 

I loved PR's post game interview, they asked him what he had learned, it was NOT the answer they thought they would get.  LOL.  I'm glad he isnt playing their game.  

 

I can’t remember a more lackluster Sunday at a PGA tour event. It was as if a pall had been cast over the day by what had happened the day before. This is the definition of a hollow victory and the fact that

@PointsBetUSA

refunded bets made speaks to the inequity felt by many.

 

Hmmm, he thinks a reference to gambling supporting his argument is a good "look", in the "spirit of the game".

[karstens_ghost]

It's funny… when he played for almost a year with the wrong spec'd clubs, that's when I lost interest in him. If you're daft enough to not figure that out, the other stuff is just part of the whole thing.

 

Some people have enough talent that they don't have to try hard. He's one of those guys. Lazy af mentally.

 

You can come back from it, but you have to address it better. If he says something like, "the last rules fiasco… don't want anything like that to ever happen again" then you're on your way back. Instead it was an entitled "I handled it right" basically because his playing partners aren't going to say anything.

 

 

[Tzoid]

He's so talented and it's obvious he's got some issues personally that come up in his public life as a golfer.  He cheated at the Hero World Challenge in 2019 and then 

Lied about not realizing he moved the sand. The College days incidents also contribute to him being disliked so where there's smoke there's fire.   

 

That said I hope he can get his head right and redeem himself because at age 30 he has many Ryder Cups and Presidents Cups he could be Captain America !

I love this.  Agree 100%.  Looks like they are even trying to "cancel" PR in a way....  The media mob gonna rain down on the PGA till they decide to do something drastic.

So strange, and it's not like bookies don't pay bets when refs make a bad call in basketball or something.  This is just weird.  

[wjdpar1]

Yes, Rory kind of took the wind out of the storm.  Reed is very hard to understand but he's a seriously talented golfer.

I never paid much mind to Faldo or his crew of old ladies but seeing them foaming at the mouth was a bizarre sight.

 

And Brandel, he has issues, he went overboard, great “analyst” he is. 
 

Then, you got the Xander “the boys are in a huff” Soufflé crying too. 

 

Meantime,

 

Rory and the entire field were doing the same thing all day!

 

Great to see Rory give his take and show these guys are throwing hissy fits for no reason

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[br61]

Even though I don't care for Captain Douchebag but he is very entertaining to watch. Hellva player too. Whatever he did on Saturday's 10th hole, he got a free pass to Go by that rule official and that is it.

[RhytmEarl]

I'd like to see him thrown off the tour.  

[dropkicked]

What I've learned is that PReed is a massive draw, 😄

[bscinstnct]

Here is a follow up question!

 

Patrick Reed calls you and invites you to play a round with him.

 

At Augusta! He is an honorary member as a Masters winner and one perk is he can play whenever he wants to and bring a guest. 

 

Id like to know who amongst you would turn him down, lol

 

Obviously, you can’t act rude like you’re holier than thou or he will throw you off the course in 2 holes. You have to either be genuinely happy to play with him or act like you are.

 

What say you?!

Best short game on tour and a great competitor.

 

But I also think he's a scumbag cheater and I don't like the person at all.

 

I root against him, but I won't lose any sleep when he wins.

You root for him, if you're an American.  He's one of our best.  Screw the haters.  They probably live in mommy's basement.

Correct.  CBS asshats and Golf Chanel hate the guy so much that they explode.  Meanwhile, Reed followed the rules and won the tournament by a blowout.

 

Think CBS might want to review their practices, as their commentary did not follow the rules.

Dude has the best short game on tour by miles right now. I can't hate on a dude with that game. 

 

If Rors had PReed's skills from 100 yards in, he'd win every start. 

 

 

If Rory had Reed's short game AND mental toughness he'd have 12 majors by now.

[cardia10]

I think 1 rules infraction in 8 years isn't too bad for Reed. I don't remember Tiger's drop at the Masters being discussed this much and it was an obvious violation. 

[bscinstnct]

Ok, aside from those (92 people) who are “fine either way” (which I consider to be actually pro-Reed!)....

 

 

We have 61 who root against Reed

 

And 38 who root for him.

 

Thats not too bad for PR.

 

 

I really think that Reed icing the field on Sunday combined the idiots Faldo and Brandel screaming from the rooftops have created a

 

Reed fan club!

I'm rooting against just cause he should of asked Official first before picking ball up. And yeah that was a pretty big bounce. No food throwing though cause I spend hours making dozens jalapeno poppers and pouring a cocktail. 

So what you really want is a rule change ?

Agree. You can find me defending Brandel here a lot.  But when him and  his mosettes started their crying jag , I was at a loss.  
 

at one point he and rich learner were remembering a unnamed Cheater that Brandel played with in the 1890s , and told a whole story on why he didn’t call the guy out ..... I’m sitting there going ,” I know why you didn’t  call the guy out.  Your 5 ft 4 137 lbs .... that’s why.  “.    But he had no issue doing it on tv when the guy wasn’t sitting face to face in front of him.  Then to cap it off he stops and says. “ disclaimer.  Reed broke no rules.  We’re not talking about him.  “.   
 

 

im sorry. All credibility for the next 10 years. Gone.  Brandel .... completely full of crap.

Are you useGolffacts on Twitter?  JK. This is so true on many levels. Weekly there are numerous instances in any event where shady relief situations are taken. Joel Dahmen was roasted on here for calling Sung Kang a cheater for a drop he felt never crossed the hazard as close as he was able to drop it but a rules official okayed it. If you’ve played at the college level, serious am level, or any pro level you’ve def seen it in your group too, just depends on the rules officials sometimes or how nice the paying partners are. I’ll never forget in college a kid claiming a Mickelson type relief under a bush in Mexico by extending his arms out all the way with a driver which he never was going to use but put his left foot into the cart path by a little of his heel. Myself and the other kid in the group refused his relief, but a coach acting as the rules official okayed it and that was that. Had Reed not grabbed the ball so quickly and just called the official this was a non story. That digging incident in the Bahamas took this story to a level it didn’t need to get to and I am no Reed fan.

LOL, this place blew up and in a far bigger way than Reed's issue.

 

People with earphones were having arguments about it translated at the U.N.

I’m shocked there hasn’t been a Xander backstopping thread yet either.  I guess it doesn’t matter since he got such a bad break. Imagine if his ball stopped by Jordan’s after hitting it...and the Reed drop, it might have been as close.
