    Why, do italics make you nervous?

    My only point was that your comment before focused too much on minor aesthetic problems, when really it was mechanical deficiencies and managerial incompetence that led to the Titleist's demise. So much lost potential...
    no... it just didn't make any sense to me as to why you did that.
    oh, well it's still ugly.

          That makes 3 of us.

          Ming and I are old so we would remember the DeLorean "gull wings".

          What's your excuse Dis?

            You don't need to be old to remember delorean. It was on Back to the future... everyone knows delorean.

                The design isn't particularly offensive for the era (remember the Pacer? ) but the paint/surfacing problems would certainly hurt sales. Add to that a poor acceleration and I can see why I never heard of it.
                Hey, at least the Pacer actually got some sales. If you want to talk about a Titleist-level marketing flop, read up on the DeLorean!
                Unbelievable!

                  At least John DeLorean had an excuse. He was on drugs.

                    Of course. How could I forget. You've just sent my recovery back ten years.

                    I actually remember Delorean most from the Larry Flint tape... It is usually my 1st thought at mention of his name. The car is second.

                        I don't particularly care to argue their position (though I think they are right), I just thought the environmental impacts of this elitist sport should be mentioned somewhere in the thread...
                        Well, be sure to tell us about all them bugs getting stepped on by those guys in cleats running around after an inflated pigskin.

                        And elitist? Kinda weird blaming a sport for the behavior of a small minority who play it. Thats like blaming porn for Ted Bundy...

                          Referencing a macho game where the men wear tights doesn't strengthen your position. I can't speak to football field upkeep but the use of pesticides on golf courses is legendary.

                          Who has time to chase a ball around a field for hours? People with more money than sense or someone without a job. The unemployed can't pay.

                            But you forgot the poor little bugs

                            And yet millions of working people play golf, how many "elitists" have you identified?

                              Stop trying to troll me into a serious discussion. Particularly on golf.
