@ no, because competitors may not realize they violated a rule and they get wrongfully punished for it. These rules had ultimately put golfers in a state of limbo at times. I believe the golfer was Dustin Johnson a few years ago, but during a major, the rules committee were debating over whether or not his ball moved when he was lining up to put. This constant state of limbo that wasn't even resolved until the next day, forced not only uncertainty onto Johnson, but his fellow competitors, because they didn't know how many strokes they were behind. It ultimately didn't matter because Johnson won by a few strokes, but this state of limbo has an extremely negative impact on the game.
@ except they don't. There is a lot of honor code in golf, hence why their scorecards have to be accurate. If someone on TV claims you did something, without a golfer actually knowing that they did something wrong (in this case, placing a towel to create a "stance", which is a complete stretch), then that not only hurts the golfer but the game of golf.
@ It would only make sense if every player were equally scrutinized for every shot. It wouldn't be fair to Tiger Woods, who has cameras hovering around him for the entire round, while Joe Hacker in last place plays in anonymity. Consider also that for certain violations, camera angle can also influence one way or the other. Beyond all this, it's up to the players, officials on ground to make the call -- not the spectators in attendance or watching remotely. All other sports recognize this, golf has only belatedly adopted this bit of common sense.
Not only that, they accepted calls after the fact. It was basically a huge disadvantage for anyone playing on TV, so the more popular golfers and the ones who happened to be playing with them were penalized and the players who got less TV time got an advantage.
The insane part was: - he had no idea it was a rules violation. - he was surrounded by a lot of reporters and other players and none of _them_ suspected it was a rules violation - he was never informed someone had phoned in a possible rules violation Yet it still got him disqualified. This setup incentivises: - never mentioning anyones mistake before they make their scorecards - hiring people to watch the life transmission to watch out for your enemies rules violations to get them disqualified
"hiring people to watch the life transmission to watch out for your enemies rules violations to get them disqualified" That's probably why they stopped allowing people to call in to narc on players.
Interesting guy, that Craig Stadler. Not only was he an incredibly accomplished tour golfer himself (he won The Masters '82), but one of his sons is also a pro golfer who is the same height and build. They nicknamed him 'The Smallrus'; that is not a joke.
I mean, historically the PGA has not been very friendly to people with disabilities. This is the organization which went to the US Supreme Court to try to stop Casey Martin from being able to use a golf cart. I can only imagine that they would rule a prosthetic leg as "building a stance".
I remember actually watching that round. 1) Stadler was not a fashion plate. 2) it was actually very common back then for people to call in penalties. I guess the actual officials were kind of useless. 3) it was really stupid to allow phone in penalties
During my sophomore year in high school, I stole a laptop from the computer lab to help me write an English paper. I was planning on returning it the following week, but I began hearing rumors that the lab teacher wanted to press charges against whoever took it, so I got scared and hid it in my attic. On the very last day of my senior year, during lunch, I snuck into the lab and left the laptop exactly where I had found it more than 2 years prior with a sticky note that simply said, "Thanks!" signed with my initials. I often wonder if they had somebody thumb through the yearbook and develop a "suspect list" based on my initials... but I guess I'll never know.
I love Jon Bois, but I think SB nation makes a lot of other really good content, and it can't feel good for these video producers to post a video they worked hard on and just hear back "where's Jon?"
Not sure if anyone mentioned this but 8 years later that tree was dying so they invited Stadler to come to the course and cut it down. He accepted and finally put the incident to rest.
With much regret, I confess while at work, I microwaved my spaghetti without the lid and failed to clean up any residual splatter it may have caused. Isn't there a rule regarding a 1-point play in the NFL? Like a returned-PAT-fumble-safety situation or something?
Cody Welter If there is a safety on a extra point or two point conversion attempt, the defense will be awarded 1 point. This has never happened in the NFL. There is only one way I can imagine this happening. The defense would have block a kick, recover a fumble, or intercept the ball on a PAT or 2-point attempt. Then, the offense would have to force a fumble shortly before the player with the ball crosses the goaline. Then, the offense would have to recover the ball in the endzone, and get tackled before the offensive player can exit the endzone. It will probably never happen, but it is indeed possible.
4-0, 5-0, and 6-0 are possible for shutouts. Both teams scoring could be 3-2, 4-2 and 5-2. Watch the SB Nation video by Jon Bois called "Scorigami", it covers all of this.
Yeah, after I posted it I realised how wrong I was. 6-1 is still one of the rarest low scoring games though. I don't think 6-1 has ever been achieved in an NFL game.
In football (or soccer if you prefer) it's actually quiet common to replace a injured referee with someone from the audience. In Germany a referee can attend any game free of charge as long as the stadium is not completely booked. He just has to show his or her referee ID. So the actual referee got injured all referees will be asked to meet at a location and a new referee will be picked.
The only time I’ve ever heard of Craig Stadler before now was an episode of Game Sack where Craig’s commentary and random taunts on a old 90’s golf game became a recurring joke in the series. Poor Joe and Dave.
I think this was the first case of video rules violations, and it took a long time for golf to fix some of these rules. There was a Masters where Tiger Woods hit the flagstick and deflected into a pond (15th hole). Somebody watched and thought he didn't take a proper drop- assessed 2 strokes, But he signed his score card for a score less than that- so DQ'd. But they just changed the rule to allow for that situation to be corrected. Nobody wanted to lose Tiger in a tournament, so it turned out to be good for everybody.
I almost lost my High school district tournament because I completely whiffed a putt and even though I didn't touch the ball I made the motion to hit it and it cost me a stroke. Fun times.
The best golf related video you could make if you haven’t already is about Dustin Johnson in the US Open in 2016. On the twelfth hole a rules official informed him that he might have committed a violation on the 5th hole. He had a one shot lead at the time. It wasn’t as bad as it could have been because he ended up winning even with the penalty
The facts of the case was it was a pair of rain pants that he put under his knees the rule says that you cannot build a stance which means that you can't put something under your feet or in this case his knees to improve his stance.... in actuality had he put on his rain pants it would not have been a penalty because that is not considered improving your stance. When that tree was to be removed by the course they made a big deal of it and let him kneel on some rain pants and cut it down with a chainsaw it made for really good television.
I understand the concept of allowing viewers to call in penalties. In other sports cheating (e.g. holding, off sides, double dribble, crosschecking, etc.) is typically "part of the game". The idea is that you do whatever you can get away with without getting caught (No really. You see it every single game in most sports.). In golf it's not OK to cheat even if nobody noticed. Still, golf is littered with unnecessary, arbitrary and vague rules that should be either eliminated or fixed. The rules are so poorly written that it's possible to "cheat" while having no clue that you're violating a rule. That's dumb and needs to be fixed. Nobody should be disqualified for kneeling on a towel or "grounding a club" in what doesn't seem to be a sand trap. Don't get me started on the idiotic bit about your ball landing in someones divot on the fairway.
Another golf rule that I think would be cool to see: Seve Ballesteros was disqualified from the U.S. Open in 1980 on the second day because he missed his tee time by ten minutes. He thought his tee time was an hour later than it actually was, and with traffic being heavier than usual en route to the course, that also slowed him down. He had to watch as Hale Irwin, one of his playing partners, holed out, and he was out right after that.
That's another thing-- the rule is "The player shall start at the time laid down by the Committee," which apparently means that exact time, not a second earlier or later; Porky Oliver in 1940 (in another controversial ruling) started earlier than his tee time because of bad weather, and the Committee said, no, you can't do that; you have to start right at the tee time. His playing partners said, come on, let him play; he didn't know. Committee said, no; he is DQed, that's that, and that's final.
NY Gamer Yeah, but the tournament should've alerted the golfer that he was reported for breaking a rule, especially one so obscure that he likely wasn't aware of.
N Jackson depends on when they found out. If the call didn't come in until after Craig turned in his scorecard, then it was too late. Sucks for Craig, but in the long run it didn't matter because he continued golfing for another 20 years after that
Google Markus Winkelhock, the only modern F1 driver to have led every F1 race he appeared in. A special rule regarding tyres allowed him to mop up the rest of the field during the only race he participated in (with Spyker F1). It's the race that made me fall in love with Formula 1.
What I don’t understand, they prohibit this but let golfers remove their shoes and socks to hit a ball out of the water hazard. I don’t have a problem with either, but apparently one is OK and the other not. Next time, the Walrus should remove pants and hit the shot in his tighty whiteys so as not to “build” his stance. Where’s common sense and reason?
Azinger got hit with a similar violation a few years later... he was positioning himself for a shot and had a rock under his foot that was uncomfortable.. so he dragged his foot to move the rock and re-position... a viewer also dinged him as you can't move impediments (like rocks) except on the green and he was in a water hazard... it might have even been considered the same rule... if Stadler had tied the towel around his knee then knelt, he'd have been fine if I understand the rule correctly... but putting it on the ground made it a violation.
I still remember the day my High School Golf coach sat the whole team down and slapped that book in front of us... greatest thing he ever did for us, forcing us to memorize the rule book. And then he handed us pocket versions of it for reference if our opponents ever had questions in a match...
My crime I'd like to admit to is my cousin and I used to steal our parents booze and underage drink and then go to the Boardwalk in Ocean City NJ while trying to pass off whisky in a water bottle as iced tea
Sounds like the American Tax Filing system. "Yeah, we know much tax you gotta pay but you still gotta report it to us. Oh, if you make a mistake, we gonna come down on you."
it's recent but would make an interesting episode, It's on John Scott of the Arizona coyotes gets voted in as a pacific all stars captain. gets traded to montreal in late december, get sent to the habs minor league hockey team. Then he plays in the all star game as "NHL All Star" with no team affiliation and wins all star tourney MVP. you can't write wilder shenanigans if you tried.
cant the golf tournament have people in place: 1- For they themselves to inform the golfer of any possible violation before they occur, since its not like a personal foul violation or something that happens very quick. 2- Cant they be the ones to handle all the golfer's scorecard.
Sadly this happen all the time in golf, idiots would call in and get players penalized + a scorecard infraction. They only just changed this rule 2 years ago.
Years later, that same tree at Torrey Pines became diseased and Stadler accepted an invitation to cut it down. The updated Rules of Golf, effective 2019, now prohibit tv viewers from phoning in rules infractions.
Idk if this is a rule but maybe you guys can tell me. I was a wrestler and one time I saw a kid grab the edge of the mat for leverage while pinning someone . Just like in wwe when a bad guy uses the rope . Is that legal ?
I'd like to admit to the crime of not being subscribed sooner. Just found the nba infinite timeout video and figured I'd start from the beginning. Love this series!
They finally changed this rule after what happened to Lexi Thompson last year. Viewers can no longer call in violations and golfers can no longer be penalized for handing in a scorecard without a penalty they didn’t know they committed. It’s still funny though haha
Just like when somebody anonymous called in on that woman golfer who got penalized 2 storkes for placing the ball on the green in front of her ball marker and then later another 2 strokes for turning in an invalid score card
If that’s a weird golf rule ( which I don’t think it is), then there are many more rules in the Rules Of Golf that you guys would for some reason consider “weird.”
Two footnotes -- years later when that same tree became diseased, Stadler was invited to cut it down with a chainsaw, making a great photo op; and, the 2019 golf rules revisions no longer allow tv views to call in penalties.
Haha, nice, note 1 brightened my day ^^

More Bad rulemaking then the person calling in IMO.

Mónica Muñoz some of the PGA rules are so picky
It seems like what he did wasnt even an infringement of the rule. I cant imagine the towel in any way provided a benefit to his swing.
The insane part was:
- he had no idea it was a rules violation.
- he was surrounded by a lot of reporters and other players and none of _them_ suspected it was a rules violation
- he was never informed someone had phoned in a possible rules violation

Stadler was a Masters champion (1982). He was a solid golfer.
What if it was Stadler's caddy who gave him the towel, AND MADE THE PHONE CALL?!
Dun dun dunnnnnn!
Game sack loves stadler
Now here’s a question. Would it be a rules violation if a person had prosthetic legs/arms?
I mean, historically the PGA has not been very friendly to people with disabilities. This is the organization which went to the US Supreme Court to try to stop Casey Martin from being able to use a golf cart. I can only imagine that they would rule a prosthetic leg as "building a stance".
What are shoes if not mobile stands?
Absolutely. Golf is able bodied only, not for cripples.
I remember actually watching that round.
1) Stadler was not a fashion plate.
2) it was actually very common back then for people to call in penalties. I guess the actual officials were kind of useless.
3) it was really stupid to allow phone in penalties

Does it count as 'building' if the way you used it makes you lower than if you just stood up normally and took your shot?
Google Markus Winkelhock, the only modern F1 driver to have led every F1 race he appeared in. A special rule regarding tyres allowed him to mop up the rest of the field during the only race he participated in (with Spyker F1). It's the race that made me fall in love with Formula 1.
How is it a stance if you're on your knees? The word "stance" practically has "stand" right in it.
That rule specifically is talking about placing their feet...last I checked knees are not feet
Does the rule imply you're only allowed to golf on your feet thought?
What I don’t understand, they prohibit this but let golfers remove their shoes and socks to hit a ball out of the water hazard. I don’t have a problem with either, but apparently one is OK and the other not. Next time, the Walrus should remove pants and hit the shot in his tighty whiteys so as not to “build” his stance.

Such a terrible thing to happen and worst of all, Stadler was playing in his hometown tournament when it happened.
I gotta confess: I came into work this monday and saw my coffee+muffin garbage from last week. I hadn't thrown it out at the end of the day.
You could do this entire series on golf though.
Azinger got hit with a similar violation a few years later... he was positioning himself for a shot and had a rock under his foot that was uncomfortable.. so he dragged his foot to move the rock and re-position... a viewer also dinged him as you can't move impediments (like rocks) except on the green and he was in a water hazard... it might have even been considered the same rule... if Stadler had tied the towel around his knee then knelt, he'd have been fine if I understand the rule correctly... but putting it on the ground made it a violation.

The "player count" rule in Australian rules football.
They’ve done it I think
How about the PGA Tour, Inc. v. Martin case where the Supreme Court had to rule if using a golf cart in a golf tournament was legal or not?
Excuse me, sir, Ump, Man. That was a strike!
Not the only time a viewer called in that resulted in a player being penalized a stroke AFTER turning in his card and being disqualified afterwards.
you still can call in for golf
Why not tie a towel around each knee before? Does the rule cover what you are wearing?
is it technically a stance tho if he wasn't standing?
Sadly this happen all the time in golf, idiots would call in and get players penalized + a scorecard infraction. They only just changed this rule 2 years ago.
Isn't wearing shoes and socks "Building a stance"? You are materially altering the course by using foot coverings.
Years later, that same tree at Torrey Pines became diseased and Stadler accepted an invitation to cut it down. The updated Rules of Golf, effective 2019, now prohibit tv viewers from phoning in rules infractions.
That's when everybody from top to bottom gets cussed out until they get me a name or the game will be delayed
Bruh something similar happened to Lexi Thompson at the ANA Inspiration
Imagine people just calling in for NFL and NBA penalties 🤣🤣🤣🤣
By that rule, wearing shoes would be building your stance and should disqualify every golfer who wears shoes.
Idk if this is a rule but maybe you guys can tell me. I was a wrestler and one time I saw a kid grab the edge of the mat for leverage while pinning someone . Just like in wwe when a bad guy uses the rope . Is that legal ?
Devin Gallegos is have to say no as one of my teammates wrestled some guy who grabbed the edge and was immediately called out
I'd like to admit to the crime of not being subscribed sooner. Just found the nba infinite timeout video and figured I'd start from the beginning. Love this series!
Whoever reported him isn't a hoopy frood
They finally changed this rule after what happened to Lexi Thompson last year. Viewers can no longer call in violations and golfers can no longer be penalized for handing in a scorecard without a penalty they didn’t know they committed. It’s still funny though haha
I feel that if the rule violation was called in and the golfers was not informed then the golfer should not be DQed (scorecard error in ignorance)
Just like when somebody anonymous called in on that woman golfer who got penalized 2 storkes for placing the ball on the green in front of her ball marker and then later another 2 strokes for turning in an invalid score card
If that’s a weird golf rule ( which I don’t think it is), then there are many more rules in the Rules Of Golf that you guys would for some reason consider “weird.”
He didn't even use his feet though. He used his knees!
