Steve Elkington ?@elkpga 56m
ESPN reporting Michael Sam is leading the handbag throw at NFL combine....
No one else expected to throw today
This is just dumbassery at its finest. And I really don't care what the subject is.

You have to do something wrong to be a moron?

I always liked Elk on the Jim Rome show back in the day when he would trash Colin Montgomerie and the Smothers Brothers.

He really doesn't have any sponsorships. He uses a golf website/forum that he helped create for his bag sponsor and last year used a mix of taylormade and titleist clubs.

People have the same right to have a negative reaction to what he said that he has to say what he did say.
That includes employers and sponsors.

I don't like the fact that you have to watch what you say all the time these days, but he stands more of a chance to make easy money than I do and I just don't get why he would say something like this, even if I'm the kind of guy who likes jokes.

I didn't quote the entire passage because I didn't feel it was necessary, but the butthurt over him making a joke implies he did something wrong.
He didn't.
