I don’t ride but my playing partners do. If they don’t want to talk, that is OK, I talk for all of us. Stories, jokes, recollections, course comments, etc.
Always the charmer. Boss doesn’t want to admit he’s incapable of small talk that doesn’t involve tea cozies. Even the PGA pros chitchat during their tournament rounds.
I find it interesting that Bossman has noone else to play golf with. ‘Are there no other men of industry that’ll hit the links with him? Or, does his arrogance run them all away? Or, more to the point, is playing with Brutus the only way he can be assured of a win?
His boss complains about Brutus a lot, yet he goes out of his way to do stuff with him. I guess his status won’t let him admit he likes Brutus verbally?
Sad that the boss doesn’t want to talk. That’s half the fun usually the better half especially if there’s a 19th hole. Going to be a long game, that’s for sure…..

Turn the discussion about the way he can do more money. That’s big talk for him.

I hope all your balls go in the water, followed by the clubs your throw in. And don’t send Brutus in to get them.

What would he do if he didn’t have Brutus to humiliate?

Not a Golfer, But I would return the cart without the snob

…so they DO golf together! I knew it. Now Brutus just has to get Wilberforce in on a match and a career awaits!

I’d leave him on the first tee. Wait til he is about to swing, jump in the cart and go. Of course he’d have to find a new job…..

knowing Brutus, they may end up in a pond, he’ll get distracted driving and Splash !!!

And you, Thorny, should focus on losing so that you can keep your job.

How would you like to walk the course rather than ride in my cart?

Veeblefester once again does his best to spoil our hero’s day and golf game by being irascible and taciturn.

Brutus, talk about money. He’ll loosen up then.

Just don’t speak Brutus. No great shot chief. No good one chief. No rotten luck chief. Just let the bugger stew in his own tiny wittle glass world.
andersjg Premium Member over 1 year ago
A sudden left turn might solve Brutus’ problem.

Met’s are a big disappointment Thornapple. The Guards are only 2 games out with a respectable 500 record. Get your teams straight!

Never argue with or be rude to the driver. They can get even.

Sounds like a good reason to head straight for the 19th hole, without him.

Hate to be this way, but I’m with the boss on this one.

Not only a loser but an ignorant A/H. You play golf with this thing too?

Veeblefester must insist on always having a chauffer because I can’t think of any other reason for Brutus to be along on this golf outing.

Brutus then replies, “When you asked me to caddy for you, I thought that is what you wanted, someone to distract you when you drive into the rough”…

It would turn out that Brutus was a Met fan
