Racism - No

Elitism - Yes

And that's from a golf fan

Oh so he creates an article claiming golf commentators are racist and then when someone asks for proof he just says we are the ones who are offended

Are you offended that I assumed your gender?

I'm a golf fan too but can't stand Alliss.

Thankfully the BBC don't show much golf these days so don't have to listen to him struggling to stay awake anymore.

Sky's coverage is first class. I know it's a kant having to fork out for sky but nobody beats their coverage of any sport.

Other than Scottish football of course. Their coverage of that is honking and BT wipes the floor with them.

BBC for saying there are too few Asian football managers?

Li started the say on +1 and finished on -6 by shooting a 63, which equalled the lowest round on final day of a major.

The guy did come out of nowhere to be the clubhouse leader of The Open.

No racism intended. It was assumed by you because you haven't heard of him and he's Chinese........

You may have missed the point

The point wasn't the Li comment, the point was that after that he said Chan, there's another one. When chan parred the day

I don't watch golf as it's all white men dressed like pimps.....

I believe that was casual racism? not sure

I play golf and I utterly resemble that remark...

Played my first golf in years yesterday.

I like Peter Alliss

I hate guys who sort Get In The Hole as soon as a ball it's hit. Yer shouting at an inanimate object. FFS

I hate Americanisms like thru 15.

Some amount of O'ffended these days - there really is.

Funnily enough there seems to be more guys who are offended by guys calling out racism today than there are folk who are actually offended by it.

As I said, I find it funny when these guys who clearly try so hard to suppress it mess up, that's all. Nit something that offends me.

But call it out publicly and all you get are genuinely offended guys, who are offended by the thought of me suggesting that casual racism exists.

There has been a weird 180° flip in who gets offended by things nowadays.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No the flip is white men deciding what everybody else deems to be offensive.

Best not to discuss. Probably only bring out the basest knuckle dragging instincts in a few.
