I agree with pretty much everything you said about all the theatrics, but we both also know the game is changing (has changed). Golf is now cool and everyone wants to be a part of it. Just take a look at the rubes I had to play behind yesterday. Took every one of them 10 to get to the green!:mj16: My buddy slices one over in another fairway, and they just pick his ball up on their way by:wtf: Trounced through bunker after bunker and never raked, never fixed a ballmark, left the flag sitting half in/half out on a lot of holes, 2 holes behind and never gave a single thought to letting us play through. They were all wearing Nike this and Nike that, these clowns would never have been there if not for Tiger.
That is what happens when you play shit courses.
