Baddeley: "God @#$#@ed me over, He can suck my #$%".
In a surprising outburst, young Aussie golfer Aaron Baddeley has said that the Lord has forsaken his usually smooth putting stroke and thus must be held accountable for Baddeley's poor final round in the U.S. Open today.
"I have had the Almighty to thank for a lot in my life, but today he just sucked", the usually affable young man said.
"I guess Angel just is more more religious than I am, or maybe that new position my wife and I tried with the toaster didn't go down too well", he continued.
"Either way, God owes me one big time. I give him all the credit in the world, pray my guts out and ramble on to anyone within earshot about what a great Divine Entity the Lord is, and this is what I get in return. Well, God can suck my #@$".

Baddeley went on to say that he was surprised that the Lord would do this to him and that He must be held accountable if He wants all the praise when things go right.
"I mean, it's God this and the Almighty that- it even hurts me to go on like a twit sometimes, but that is the sacrifice I make for Jesus. Well, not any more. Jesus can get his own $#%#$% PR from now on".
"I am going to check out this Allah dude, but I don't know about that either. I can't see how I could pray without either getting my pants stained or a two shot penalty".

Absolute Pisser.......................Gutsy Post in these Day's of being so "P.C" but couldn't agree more , I got a good laugh out of it anyway.
Poor ol' Badds , had a real chance , on a huge stage ,to make a name for himself but it wasn't mean't to be.
It was obvious from the scores Today that "The Man Upstairs" had more important things on the agenda than to pay any attention to the US Open , Sunday's are very big over here for Garage Sales , so maybe he was out lookin' for some Bargins.
 
Badds.com despite his poor round today has really started to live up to his early hype.Scott a real disappointment.

True - It could just be the perspective of following only the aussies but does it seem like the Australian guys are rubbish on Sunday to anyone else? On the Fox sports ad they have an American commentator say something to the affect that the Aussies are as hard a nails - i just laugh.

FUNNIEST post of all time! :rofl
 
Well Guy's , it's that time of Year again..............The Open Championship is upon us.

Was surprised to see that this thread hasn't had any action since the US Open , but then again , not a lot going on I guess.

Normally , by this time , I've been fortunate enough to have been to a Tourney or 2 , but with the International (Colorado) cancelled , and the Western Open (Chicago) moved to Sept. , it's been a barren year.

Looking forward to The Open though , alway's an interesting watch , 12 hours of TV coverage doesn't hurt either , thank God , 'cause things are Sooooo slow on the Sports Front here at this time of Year.

So , how are our Boy's gonna do...................Legitimate chance's or not ?

Same old names will no doubt be mentioned , but can they get over the Hump this time around ?
No predictions here , it's a "Mug's Game" trying to predict Open winner's and ofcourse , Tiger is alway's the logical pick going in.
Will be interesting to see if one of our Boy's is in with a chance come Sunday , whether or not they can stay in the hunt , unlike what has been happening of late.

Apples at the Master's and Badd's at the US Open were both surprises , wasn't expecting either to fall away to that extent.

Scott and Ogilvy the best priced of our Boy's at 40/1 , find Cabrera at 50/1 an interesting sort. Finished 4 th in '99 at Carnoustie , 7th at last Year's Open and if he has his US open form still on board , he might well give it a scare for 2 Majors in a row.

Just heard Olazabal has withdrawn and with Ballersteros announcing his retirement from competitive golf , the Spainards are all the rage.

Tiger at 3/1 is obviously nearly unbackable , Els has been backed into 12/1 to overtake Mickelson 16/1 and everyone else is pretty good value if you like a Punt.

Will be looking forward to seeing everyone's thought's and comments over the next few day's , hope it's an interesting Open that comes down to the 18th , unless there's an Aussie at the Top , then I'll be quite happy for a 6-7 stroke lead.

Go Rob and Stuey , hoping 2007 IS the Year.
