John Daly...There Are No Words

As reader Chuck noted, words fail to describe the video report of John Daly talking about his design work at, well, I don't know even know the name of the course. I was too distracted by the sight of him shirtless and shoeless for a photo op. Which prompted reader Gregory to wonder if John has set the new standard for staged architect photo ops? I think he may be onto something.

A flavor of what the video shows...

I think I might have seen some butt cleavage. I hope it was just my imagination.

And I heard that his next course will be named either "Death Tree" or "Massacre Lake."

I applaud this trend among player-architects, and look forward to Paula Creamer's first signature course.

Murder Rock must have reciprocity with Bob O'Link

jneu...that is classic!

While I can't prove the reporter was drinking before they shot this, he did touch John Daly's topless body four separate times in the intro which is equivalent to blowing a .08 on a breathalizer.

The course's name? How about Plumber's Crack?

I wondered about the worth of that video, which I was pointed to at another message board. (I don't have Arkansas Cablevision at home.) Seeing the comments above, it was well worth it. (Comment of the year, jneu.)

This is such a great response, I'm wondering if the next Ryder Cup shouldn't be shirts versus skins.

What a stud-muffin.

Bob - there was way too much mantouching in that video.

jneu, you misspelled Natalie Gulbis.
Now if only the PGA and USGA would let him play topless and shoe less we would see the REAL John Daly play....with cigarette in mouth.
