One of golf’s four “major” tournaments every year is called “The Masters.” The field of golfers is the smallest of all the majors — only the best allowed — and the winner can be deemed “The Master” (plus, he gets a cool green jacket that every pro golfer covets).
But one writer at Deadspin has decided that the tournament’s name is racist and should be changed.
Rob Parker wrote a piece headlined “We’ve Lived with ‘The Masters’ Name Long Enough.”
The name “The Masters” must go.

So we will no longer have a Master Sergeant, Master plumber, master electrician , master mechanic, master carpenter, etc. What an idiot.!!!
ReplyDeleteRob Parker, does anyone really read this guys stuff. Just a no body trying to get some attention. Nice try Rob, no go back and suck your thumb.
ReplyDeleteI should turn in my master's degree for renaming, not because it sounds racist, but because it was established by white men. It was 800 years ago, but what's that matter.
ReplyDeleteMy friend is a master mechanic. Another friend is a master builder. Yet another is a professional tuna fisherman, who worked his way up the ladder to owning his own boats. To get there, one of the things he had to do was become a master baiter.
And that's what I think about that.
I guess we take Tiger's FIVE Masters titles away.
ReplyDeleteI don't give a damn. I want that name changed.
ReplyDeletePeople in hell want ice water. NOT GETTING IT FAG.
DeleteSo does joe Biden
DeleteGood luck son
DeleteAnd to be honest, when I hear anyone say the "Masters", I think of the golf tournament in Augusta, GA. If that is the "wrong" answer, I would then say the painting by Rembrandt. But, then again, I'm not "woke"?
ReplyDeleteMakes me carry dem clubs. Gotta wash dem white balls. Masters. Boogies, yep, golf is racist.
ReplyDeleteSo no more Masters degrees either . we'll just call the best excellenters or most betters. And poof changing the name will end racism and heal the country. Thought that happened when AuntJemima and Uncle Ben were kicked to the curb.
ReplyDeleteTo what?? THE SLAVE'S??
