Herb Abrams died in a pile of coke and hookers. No better way to go out than that.

In the first round of the 2000 US Open Tiger Woods started on #10 and got off to a shaky start. Due to a screw up by his caddie, he was standing on the 18th tee with only 2 balls in his bag. He hooked his first one left into the water and asked his caddie for another ball. Realizing that he'd fucked up, he didn't tell Tiger that it was his last ball - if that one went into the water he'd be DQ'd for running out of golf balls. Tiger didn't know the situation and took an aggressive line off the tee, his ball found the fairway, he finished out the hole, and his caddie was able to get more golf balls at the turn

He went on to win by a record 15 shots, one that will probably never be broken



In b4 golf is not a sport

True but my guess is that a competitive adrenaline high fueled MJ's casino binges whereas another chemical might've been involved in Rodman's. fwiw I literally partied with Rodman for 5 straight nights at the Hollywood Hard Rock in the summer of '08 and natural adrenaline wasn't necessarily his drug of choice

Wait, witf???? You know damn well i love Rodman as a player and competitor (greatest rebounder and defender ever, hands down), and you've literally never mentioned this before (at least not that i recall)..... PM me some stories my dude
