My god people, leave John alone. He was late- the pga has a bug up their ass about these pro -ams. I bet John could have met his foursome on the third hole if the pga gods allowed it but no they say go home and btw the guys that replace you are gone too because they can't predict the future. John is one of the nicest guys on tour because he is nice to the fans. You can met John Daley, talk to him, cheer for him after he swings. Go meet Ernie or Phil, heck you can't even watch Tiger warm up. And John didn't need Butch - who really does? Soon Butch will have to teach golf to tourists.

And NEVER think Golf isn't the most important thing in the life of Tiger or Phil- come on. It can be slid over for a moment but golf will never stop being who they are. That would be unfair to the family. Look at Michael Jordan ( is that his name?) after basketball.

Your right 6B, the Tour does have a bug up their ass about the pro-ams..Because those people are the ones that give the money so that there even is a tour. It's pretty important and just like any other business.

Imagine if you blew off a client meeting in the morning because you were told wrong by someone who you shouldn't have been talking with about the issue anyway.....I would guess your boss would not like it...and you would not have that client anymore...You may not get fired, but I would bet there would be a post-it in your personnel file.

One more thing. I am sick of all these Tour players and all they can talk about is "getting away from the game" every damn one of them acts as if they hate the game during interviews. JD included. If they hate it so much, don't play, do something else, I am sure everyone of them has made a ton of contacts playing the tour and could do pretty much anything they wanted.
