Those Two Viral Videos To Kick Off The Year...

I heard from a number of you who took the holidays off and missed the two viral videos discussed today on Morning Drive.

There was the Alabama karma killer, the tooth extraction via a golf swing.

And the instant classic, stop, drop and make a 12 footer (or something like that) from Matty of Vermont, who also has the first backswing I've seen in a longtime that reminds me of a young Davis Love.

To Matty get to 10,000 views Tuesday, here goes again (love that putt on the plane!):

Telegraph's Corrigan: Roll Back The Ball!

Add The Telegraph's James Corrigan to the list of subversives out to end capitalism as we know it by suggesting that it's time to end the mad chase for distance. No free golf balls for James!

Topping his list of five things he says need to happen in 2015...

1. Roll back the ball - The horse has probably bolted on this one, but it is never too late. All of golf’s ills can be traced back to the negligence of the authorities to rein in the turbo-charged golf ball. The courses are too long, the golf is too boring and the game is suffering. Do something now.

And just to show he's a dreamer...

2. Slow play - Let’s face it, golf takes too long. Five-hour rounds on Thursday and Friday are actually welcomed on some tracks, while four hours for two players is absurdly acceptable. The action takes too long to watch and is far too long to play. The only way to speed up the pros is with shot penalties. End of.
