Justin66 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Anyone see Bridgestone's new commercial? It has Freddie and his... assistant(?) reading a fan-letter about switching to the e6 ball from a Titleist model. At the end, DLIII comes on and talks about kicking that same "habit"! Now, this is most likely a nonissue, but the first thing I thought when I saw it was "Oh, no he didn't"! Anyone else catch this? Did you have the same (or any) reaction?

Manavs Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 we obviously dont know the details of what happened but, titleist pays handsomely esp to the top 50 players from what i'm told. thats a low blow dig against a hand that fed him for the better part of his career. i thought the spot, though very effective, aggressive and impactful, was beneath golf and dl3. we dont need trash talking in our sport.

I think this made DL3 look like a real ........ well you fill in the blank. The guy hasn't done nothing for what the last 6-7 years and he rips the OEM that kept his face on and in the minds of the golfing world that he's such a respectful player and is about honor and integrity then he pulls this w/his buddy Freddy. It was a real low blow in my opinion!

72strokes Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 While I certainly wasn't privy to the discussions b/w DLIII and Titleist, the word is that DLIII was not happy at all with Titleist and there's now some bad blood there. Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Saternus Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 That comment was teed up (no pun intended) win or lose. They (UNC) were completely unconscious tonight, what are you going to do? Tonight's setback was nothing a 9 game win streak won't cure. Follow me on Twitter: @MattSaternus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herb was one of my favorite coaches in the ACC during my time there, and I always felt like he got a raw deal. I have not kept up with them much since the Valvano days. I pull for their golf progam. their golf coach has been there for 30 plus years and he was a friend of my Dad's. I was actualy supposed to go to school there in 73 but screwed up my jr and sr year in high school. That is another story for another time entirely my fault.
