Long Island is RED

Totally untrue.

Kamala and Tampon Tim carried Long Island and its 4 counties by more than a half million votes.

I think he was surprised that Trump got cheered by the crowd at the Ryder Cup.

Long Island has only two counties
In the 2024 election, Donald Trump won both Nassau and Suffolk counties on Long Island, marking a significant shift in voting patterns in the region

Apparently you are forgetting the counties of Kings and Queens, who are also on Long Island and went for Kamala.

Because we're winners and we hate losing. Anyone who doesn't get mad about losing is a *****.

To the point of cheating?got it.

 

[Deadstick]

Nobody likes to lose and that does not just apply to Americans.

Sometimes everyone loses get over it without acting like a drunken hooligan, it's only a game FFS.

Totally untrue.

Geographically speaking, Long Island has four counties but Queens and Brooklyn are part of the City and not considered part of Long Island.

You don't contribute anything interesting to this forum.

And that's a load of horse shit. If the pussies can't concentrate, they need to stop calling themselves athletes.

So when did this hooliganism start, i have watched Golf from the 70s when people had manners and sportsmanship.

That is football hooliganism which has been a problem in Europe for decades, not like trying to put a Golfer off his stroke next to the green, you are just bad losers get over it, in sport you win and lose Men take it and move on.

How very sad that is.

 

[Blaster]

Kind of like being drawn to a traffic accident.

 

[Woodznutz]

Why does golf demand silence? Look at what the fans do at an NBA game when a game-winning free throw is on the line.

Apple and oranges.

Welcome to MAGA America

Uhh.... yeah... you wanna lay bets on who has the most political representation at a golf tournament crowd?

 

[iamwhatiseem]

Apple and oranges.

It really isn't.
It stems back from the days when only higher classes could play the game. Lower classes were not even allowed on the course. It was an upper class game, and wealthy people were all about etiquette and form. Making noises was considered disrespectful, and raucous.
Same with tennis, another game created by the upper class. Both sports were entirely played by the wealthy who demanded decorum and very-very limited response win or lose.

It comes down to manners, some people don't have any.
