Disagreement with ones opinion is arguing?

That's gotta be difficult....

If it makes you feel better, you ALMOST made some good points!

[SatelliteGuy]

LOL... You guys see my point now.... You just can't resist trying to antagonize further....


Find meaning outside of drama and you would be astonished at how fulfilling it can be to simply say... As I did the first time...


Have a good day guys!

I won't return... But you'll still comment.

It's a fairly meaningless weekend for the OEMs, not many big events and winning late season events is more a "tree falling in the woods" scenario. I'm a pretty hardcore golf watcher compared to most and i would've had no idea even if they HAD all won

Nike is tied to Rory and Tiger for the immediate future. Their staff could sweep the tour events in back to back weeks and most would still know them as the OEM Rory switched to and then played poorly

Nike makes golf clubs?!

they make balls too, in fact their tour version is statistically proven to get more favorable drops then the competition

Looks like it WILL be another huge weekend for Titleist though...not much news there.
[/quote]
It should be they have the biggest stable in golf.

You'd think they would win more.
[/quote]

Could you imagine how much winning they'd do if they were Titleist golf "athletes"?

Boggles the mind...

Can you imagine how "little" winning Nike would do if it weren't for Woods?

Is that a Ray Lewis picture........ I'm sorry I can't take anything you say serious with that picture.

Yes, that is the 13 time Pro Bowler, 2 Time SB Champion, and greatest defensive player in NFL history.

Wasn't it Nike that proclaimed during the last several olympics:

You don't win silver, you lose gold...

Nike doesn't suffer losers...

It is this mentality that has ruined a lot of young athletes with huge potential. Wie, McElroy, etc are (rich) casualties, not heros...

[/quote]Lawrence Taylor has something to say about that.

I'm sure he does, but it's unintelligible.

Their golf and running shoes do not hold up very well. I know - I have owned them. Never again.

Their lead player interprets the PGA Rule Book like Judge Smails.

An hour old and already with the hatin'...

... to get great performances out of Wie and Rory was a good thing ...

[/quote]

Whipping out the "hater" tag anytime we are in disagreement is cliche. So played and dead.

Every reply was level headed and some even offering a little bit of analysis.

- The need to mention MW making a T3 demonstrates that her career is not-even-fraction of the down payment NIKE made. [b]Who else on the LPGA is [i]ever[/i] applauded for their T3 weekends? [/b]What a string of unprecedented exceptions we keep carving for the millionairess.

- Rory is sadly headed in the same direction of falling way short of the trumpets.

The OP has subsequently admitted the thread was a bait. If anything we all fell right into the well. But seriously, posting your assumption that we must "hate", of the old favorite that might have been clever when my Grandmothers were alive: "haters gonna hate" ... becoming diluted to the point of worthless.

Just goes to show me you don't really know what you're talking about regarding MW. Believe it or not she still is in the top 3 in terms of who moves the needle for women's golf.

It would be nice if she won more but she still sells product and draws galleries. From a recent conversation I had, she had thenlargest average gallery in 2012. From the mouths of one of her major sponsors, the only one who might move the needle more is PC.

As for Rory, just save it til his contract is up. You have no idea where he's heading.
