At this point, I fully expect to get woodshedded by Missouri just to ice the cake of how shitty this season could go.

Augusta National has finally decided to crawl out of the dark ages

I'm surprised that a woman would want to associate with such sexist fucksticks, but to each their own, I suppose.

It's the most beautiful golf course in the U.S.  Also, why not be the person to break down some barriers?

Seems like a win-win.

I disagree that having an all-male club makes them fucksticks, but whatever.

Glad Condi was one of the ones that joined, she's a wonderful lady.

Might change your thinking when you realize she is a die-hard Browns fan and even went so far to do the modeling of the women's line of NFL jerseys. Now I am torn on her.

Sorry, when your reasoning is "that person has a vagina, and thus is not allowed in our totally sweet clubhouse" it pretty much makes you a fuckstick if you're over the age of 10 or so.

I think that's 7 actually.

Then there's Cypress Point...



There are a bunch of courses down there, all with varying degrees of that.

The only time I wish I played golf is when I'm down there and see that stuff. I used to do a summer music program at a school down there when I was a kid, we'd cut across part of Spyglass to get to the lodge for snacks. VERY NAUGHTY apparently (the tresspassing part), though I never got caught. Or hit in the head.

To you maybe. To others, not so much. Like minds will disagree on gender-specific clubs (golf or otherwise), but they exist on both sides of the coin.

They do (and I'm not always against all male or all female groups) but to argue that this bunch of douchebags deserves any benefit of the doubt is absurd.

I don't argue benefit of the doubt. I think they run a nice golf course. Whether or not they want to keep out anybody from a private club is their business, and your right as an American citizen to think of them as complete fucksticks. I just don't see it that way.

Actually, it's not if the people they want to keep out is based on something like gender or race.

Not true, but ok. It's been fought in the courts, but there's nothing definitive about it. At best it's a state by state thing.

There's a difference sometimes between what is right in the courts and what is morally and ethically correct.  A bunch of rich old white guys excluding brown people and women based on the facts that they have pigment and vaginas (or both) is really fairly reprehensible and is very reminiscent of slavery era society.  But if you're for it then enjoy.  I won't watch the Masters because they are a bunch of assholes.

Apparently they do or they wouldn't have let in a black woman.   Ohhhhh, I see.

There's no way they would be doing this if there wasn't significant social and financial pressure on them to do so.

I think it's both.  It is Augusta National and the Master's, so plenty of folks will watch.

But, nobody in his or her right mind wants to leave money on the table by imposing archaic rules like HE MAN WOMAN HATER'S CLUB...no gurlz aloud!

I think they saw an opportunity to let in two extremely conservative rich women, and let the haters from the Women's Libber movement choke on it.

I'm going to sound old here, but I think $315 is too much to pay for the latest Lebron shoes, even if they are the fancy edition.  Apparently the regulars sell for $175, which is just absurd. 

This must be what it felt like for my dad when I came home with my first pair of $100 Air Jordans.   awesome, for real

If it helps, I'm pretty sure the owners of Augusta National both ride bicycles while doped and touch children in wholly inappropriate ways.

I hate metal bats. They've already deadened them in college baseball because they were killing people. I don't think anything about them is good for the game.
