Did your English Pilgrim Fathers give you the old origional game of football that involved much use of the foot to kick a spherical ball, in addition to punching and kicking and knocking people over? Or, did they give you the English game of Rugby Football played using the League rules? Your game looks and plays like an adaptation of the League rules Rugby Football game.

We show you respect by refering to your game as Football, but we do prefix it with American to make it clear we are not refering to the actual game of Football.

The Irish show respect (and that is amazing) to the game by calling their game Gaelic Football and the actual game, Football. Likewise the Australians call their game Australian Rules Football (closer to Gaelic) and the actual game, Football.

You show no respect! Yoy call the game Soccer Ball. Why?

After looking at some questions posted about clone vs real thing, I think what many are asking is: Given the high cost of a new set of nice Callaway (or whomever) clubs, am I, as a mid to high handicap player, or occasional player, better served by saving the money and using clones? When my game improves to the point of being a low to mid handicapper, or I am able to play at least weekly I would think getting the real thing would be a different story. Some guys are playing with pretty old clubs, even a clone brings them closer to the modern technology. I guess I would consider clones only because of cost and as an improvement in technology knowing that something is better than currently being used. If the budget allowed, I would skip right over the clones.
With the cost of clones fairly low, it might not be a bad experiment. Agree or not?

After losing the U.S. Open yesterday Phil said it really stings, having worked so hard and "not making a bogey all week and then losing it on the final hole." Didn't he finish +6 or there abouts. If he didn't make a bogey all week, as he said in the interview, than he must have shot 6 over par on the final hole? Not good.
