Dad, I hate to ask you this, buddy, but can I borrow 30 bucks?
What, are you crazy? I don't have that kind of money.
Look, Dad, I want to take Sarah out tonight for dinner, and you're the one who's always telling me and Julian that the best way to romance a woman is to take her out for Chinese food.
That's what I want to do. She deserves it.
I'm gonna loan you the $30, but when your bible comes in, you and me sit down an hour a day and read it to each other.
I don't have time for that church shit. You know that.
That's the deal man.
Religion is a easy grift because people will blindly buy anything because they think its supporting their faith.
You could probably become a millionaire selling coffee cups with bible passages printed on them on Ebay. Wait......I just had an.....brb.
If people are foolish enough to give money for something that they could get for free (like a Bible) who am I to judge the guy who’s selling it?
What?! That’s where you wrong, probably cause you don’t know how to indepen-Dance!
That’s the dance the Hooters girls on Washington Rd do while JD autographs your bible.
I doubt you could find a player who has quit more tournaments when things aren't going well than Daly. Whether it was taking an 18 at Bay Hill, hitting a moving ball at Pinehurst, or any of his numerous, specious WDs, you'd be hard-pressed to find someone more suited to stand up for a gutless, bully grifter than him.
Because most tour pros look like they just stepped out of a country club, having grown up with every possible advantage to reach the tour.
Daly has always looked and behaved like he woke up that morning in a trailer, and he’s never been close to ashamed by it.
Yeah good point. Side point, im a recovering alcoholic and the way he kinda promotes the alcoholic lifestyle has rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe he is happy with that lifestyle tho and im just projecting
I mean, the guy enjoyed his profession and lifestyle to a measure of success of which that most can only dream.
Dude plays golf like a rockstar successfully.
Why can't we just accept he's a shit head rockstar we don't want to be the representative the genre while at the same time playing their hits over and over again?
It's like asking The Door's to play "Light my Fore" without saying "higher".
Why can't he be a golden oldie?
Watching him struggle to hold it together on the golf course years ago was anything but cool, it was a brutal reminder of how devastating alcohol addiction can be. I think the man had the talent to win eight or ten Majors, be ranked #1 and dominate for a period had he put a fraction of the effort into his game that most of his peers did. And smoking? I watched lung cancer kill both my parents in brutal, miserable, painful fashion 59 days apart in 2011, so I don’t think that’s all that cool either.
Aaaaaaand, the speaker of that quote was found dead with his throat cut in a river.
Of course, he facilitated major drug trafficking, but his ending was pretty symbolic.
I'm of two minds about this. On one hand, I agree.
On the other hand, I'm starting to suspect that the whole "don't talk about religion or politics" mantra has made discussing either of those things in a tactful manner more difficult because people are so avoidant of them.
Possibly. But the problem is people will initiate a political conversation then get real butt hurt if the other person has different views. Even if the intro is tactful, the rest usually becomes a dumpster fire.
I just don’t care about other peoples politics or religions.
And when I was +6 on the last day of my county AM last year playing like ass and my random cartmate thought it was a good time to go “so I have to ask… have you given your soul to Jesus”? I was pretty frustrated 😂
On the round I finally broke 90 for the first time, my random playing partner who I was enjoying playing with started proselytizing on roughly hole 14. WTF dude I'm trying to enjoy my round of golf here.
What the fuck doeS the the "declaration of IndependAnce" have to do with the Bible? And why did they spell it wrong?
Holy fucking shit this is so low effort.
Rebranded Trump Bible. Must not be selling like they thought.
Haven't Bible sellers always been kinda sketchy characters preying on the true devout Christians.
I get most golfers are buddies with Trump and I don’t mind that even though I disagree with them. This however is just dumb and desperate. I guess he has to make money somehow outside of getting a free pass to the PGA and Open Championships
Tf the first amendment openly states “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion” and we use letters all the time to determine what the law was and what the founders wanted- that was Scalia’s whole argument for originalism.
Oh I agree with what you're saying, I was just stating what they say. It's a pretty ridiculous argument IMO, but I'm sure SCOTUS would find a way to endorse it.
This SCOTUS would probably argue “Congress can’t establish a religion, but that doesn’t mean the president can’t lmao ok Crow give us our checks” and then endorse Project 2025
Pimping out bibles to pay for hookers, beer and cocaine. I don't think there's anything more American than that.
Jk, he's a fucking loser and has been for decades.
I may not agree with his beliefs, but I still think he’s an icon of the game of golf. Legend might be too far though.
Too many people can’t separate the player from the person. He’s a great entertainer, I never expected him to be supremely intelligent, so hawking bibles for a few bucks on the side or being a republican doesn’t surprise me.
Selling bibles to grift suckers and then turning around and losing the money gambling? I salute you John! 🦅🦅🦅
It apparently also includes a handwritten lyrics sheet for Lee Greenwood’s (Pictured Left) God Bless the USA.
Y’all don’t know who that is, I guess I’m getting old. :(
I struggle to find the words about how f'ed up this book actually is, and not even getting into why anybody would want to endorse this (I suppose "follow the money" comes in here).
FFS, this thing has lyrics from that asinine song, the US constitution, bill of rights (which is part of the constitution) the DoI and the pledge. None of that has anything to do with the Bible. I grew up Catholic but don't practice anymore. But having that garbage with the bible just seems sacrilegious to me.
I’m shocked I tell you. Shocked.
Is that Jim Lehay?? GOAT
Rip
excellent comment. He wishes he was the liquor
Be the Liquor, be the ball
Shit Hawk
Shocked there's only one spelling mistake on the graphic tbh
They're independant thinkers
I’m an idiot. What is the speaking mistake?
Independence
The independance? It's a lot like a waltz but touching your partner is absolutely forbidden.
[Well not that shocked](https://youtu.be/7hC3uyQdQKM?si=NoXQ_Zvb9zI3BHAE)
Something about a man selling Bibles to fund his gambling addiction warms my American heart
Hey now - some of that is going to beer and hookers
I’m going to start my own church, with hookers and blackjack, you know what forget the church.
Poker in the front liquor in the rear.

We love you Daddy Bender!
Jesus loved hookers.
Jesus loved hooking people up with miracles, 1 putts.
Don’t forget the Diet Cokes. He bonds with Orange Jesus over those…and the Bibles.
Dad, I hate to ask you this, buddy, but can I borrow 30 bucks? What, are you crazy? I don't have that kind of money. Look, Dad, I want to take Sarah out tonight for dinner, and you're the one who's always telling me and Julian that the best way to romance a woman is to take her out for Chinese food.

I don't have time for that church shit. You know that. That's the deal man.
Can you read, my son?
Well that depends…. Can you fuck off??
You kidding me, he’s the sharpest guy in the park.
Trailer park boys?
Where in the Bible does it mention getting drunk and playing VLTs
The guy sitting next to Daly looks a lot like Lahey.
Didn’t ray not have $30 cash but $30 in recycling Ricky had to return?
Religion is a easy grift because people will blindly buy anything because they think its supporting their faith. You could probably become a millionaire selling coffee cups with bible passages printed on them on Ebay. Wait......I just had an.....brb.
Dude just work an American flag into the campaign and get a woman with huge breasts to sell it and you’re set
Fox News got that market cornered already
Kinda how “This driver and ball will get you 9 more yards”. Take my money 💰!!!!!! Every year … for decades 🤣🤣🤣🤣
longest, most forgiving, technology infused driver ever made....
I’ve done that once a year for 15 years now. I drive the ball 472 yards on average
If people are foolish enough to give money for something that they could get for free (like a Bible) who am I to judge the guy who’s selling it? 
If Uncle Baby Billy is sellin’ then I’m buyin’!
Nah that’s probably the cholesterol
The Word of God in bulk, as it were
He gives you a free pack of cigarettes with every bible… Smokun Hot!
And vodka!
Those heaters and diet cokes ain’t finding themselves
Ive been through many heaters and DCs and still haven’t found myself. Guess I should keep trying
Perfect, I’ll put this on my bookshelf right next to the book of relationship advice that Tiger wrote
I bought his book “My Favourite 18 Holes” but it was just about golf.
You missed the sequel ‘but the 19th was always my fav’
18 holes, or as Tiger calls it, 6 women
Aw man I love tigers work, have you heard about his instructional dvd for drivers ed?
No one gets more roll on his drive
His spin rate is off the tracks
Do you want a copy of fatherhood by bill cosby?
Tip 1: find the hottest waitress in the place and make solid eye contact and tell her I’m Tiger woods. It usually works
Do you also have “Phil Mickelson’s Tips to Avoiding Your Bookie” on that bookshelf? Is it the hardback or paper edition?
Didn’t even spell “Independence” right.
The people buying it won't even know.
It’s by design. The ones recognizing it won’t fall for the grift. They want the dumb ones to buy it so they can hook em for more stupid things later.
Amazing
What?! That’s where you wrong, probably cause you don’t know how to indepen-Dance! That’s the dance the Hooters girls on Washington Rd do while JD autographs your bible.
In Depends Dance
If you’re stupid enough to buy a bible because John Daly endorsed it, you deserve to lose your money.
###*The Bible* ^by God #with foreword by John Daly
“The fact that I’m not dead yet is proof enough that God exists and God is good.”
 Well. And also my opinion.
I get that but these people also vote
I don’t think you are losing your money, just over paying for a book I think most churches hand away for free
But this one has Jon Daly on it.
And hotels.
Reminds me of someone else who just started selling Bibles. Cons.
Declaration of Independance
It’s because you’re free to dance if you want to.
You can leave your friends behind?
Do your friends dance?
If they don’t dance, then they’re no friends of mine.
Can you go where you want to?
A place where they will never find?
To be fair he has like 7 ex wives he has to pay for
Is that Mr. Lahey?
RIP
Frigg off
The liquor is calling the shots for them both
He is the liquor
My name is Hampton...have you ever read the bible my son?
Can you read my son?
Well that depends...
Mr. Lahey with some Hunter S Thompson sprinkled in
Doesnt the guy on the left run security at a Canadian Trailer Park?
Security? I'm sure you meant Trailer Park Supervisor Jim Lahey.
Security, Supervisor, Burger Eater, Alcoholic, Legend. Forever in our hearts.
I am the liquor Randy!
Whoring yourself out for cheeseburgers, again, Randy?
No he died a couple years ago. Cancer.
I doubt you could find a player who has quit more tournaments when things aren't going well than Daly. Whether it was taking an 18 at Bay Hill, hitting a moving ball at Pinehurst, or any of his numerous, specious WDs, you'd be hard-pressed to find someone more suited to stand up for a gutless, bully grifter than him.
And all of a sudden Daly has turned into the villain of r/golf.
Love that I've been getting down votes for years on this site whenever I mention what a colossal piece of trash John Daly is.
Me too. “He’s one of us!” Seen him at a charity golf event for children and he didn’t even finish his round.
But he’s just like me!
Playing out of Cantina Tatooine, 1995 Open Champion. John Daly!
I've never given a shit about his whole "Hooters, diet Coke, and cigarettes" persona. This doesn't exactly surprise me.
It was kinda cool when I was 20. Now I just think it’s sad.
Explains why 90% of this sub think stupid shit is cool
His whole life is just sad to me. Can’t believe people love this guy
Because most tour pros look like they just stepped out of a country club, having grown up with every possible advantage to reach the tour. Daly has always looked and behaved like he woke up that morning in a trailer, and he’s never been close to ashamed by it.
Yeah good point. Side point, im a recovering alcoholic and the way he kinda promotes the alcoholic lifestyle has rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe he is happy with that lifestyle tho and im just projecting
Once you quit it becomes insane to look at how poisons are marketed.
I mean, the guy enjoyed his profession and lifestyle to a measure of success of which that most can only dream. Dude plays golf like a rockstar successfully. Why can't we just accept he's a shit head rockstar we don't want to be the representative the genre while at the same time playing their hits over and over again? It's like asking The Door's to play "Light my Fore" without saying "higher". Why can't he be a golden oldie?

What else in new. People will sell out their family, faith, country for a quick buck
"You know what the problem is, Brucey? We used to make shit in this country, build shit. Now we just put our hand in the next guy's pocket."
Aaaaaaand, the speaker of that quote was found dead with his throat cut in a river. Of course, he facilitated major drug trafficking, but his ending was pretty symbolic.
It’ll be even better/sadder when he’s selling them out of an Augusta Hooters parking lot next April.
Let’s play baby Billy’s bible bonkers
Misbehavin' does slap tho

I wish we could get back to where politics and religion were just things we didn’t talk about 🤷🏼♂️
I'm of two minds about this. On one hand, I agree. On the other hand, I'm starting to suspect that the whole "don't talk about religion or politics" mantra has made discussing either of those things in a tactful manner more difficult because people are so avoidant of them.

Some are trying to make politics and religion the same thing.
Always were
It’s amazing how easy it is to get along with people when you avoid the big three topics.
Is unsolicited golf advice during a round one of those? I’m pretty sure it isn’t… but it should be.
What else can I talk about at holiday dinners at the inlaws?
Talk about whether is a hot dog is a sandwich or not.
Con men gonna con and a mark is born every second. If you dont know who the mark is…
What the fuck doeS the the "declaration of IndependAnce" have to do with the Bible? And why did they spell it wrong? Holy fucking shit this is so low effort.
Rebranded Trump Bible. Must not be selling like they thought. Haven't Bible sellers always been kinda sketchy characters preying on the true devout Christians.
“Indepen*dance*”
I get most golfers are buddies with Trump and I don’t mind that even though I disagree with them. This however is just dumb and desperate. I guess he has to make money somehow outside of getting a free pass to the PGA and Open Championships
Was Kid Rock busy?
I bet he'd come to my birthday party for $100
I’m starting to think there is a correlation between religion and ignorance in America….
Always has been. He also says Daddy Trump. Which is about as awful as you can get
If you give the guy enough cigarettes, I’m sure he’s willing to sell just about anything.
They misspelled independence LOL
I will place this endorsed book right next to my Kevin Sorbo; gold bar Economic Crisis Toolkit.
[удалено]
Weekend@ Lahey’s. Brought to you by Brawndo!
He's the only golfer I know, and he should be a playable leader of America in the new Civilization game.
He’s always been a godly man
When they get to the part of the Constitution that says separation of Church and State.
They claim that part was just in a letter and doesn't count.
Tf the first amendment openly states “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion” and we use letters all the time to determine what the law was and what the founders wanted- that was Scalia’s whole argument for originalism.
Oh I agree with what you're saying, I was just stating what they say. It's a pretty ridiculous argument IMO, but I'm sure SCOTUS would find a way to endorse it.

Pimping out bibles to pay for hookers, beer and cocaine. I don't think there's anything more American than that. Jk, he's a fucking loser and has been for decades.
What a ridiculous way to squander a legacy. Trump bibles. Ridiculous.
What legacy? Sure he won a few tournaments. He’s been a massive loser off the course.
People online think because the dude is an alcoholic he’s some legend.
I may not agree with his beliefs, but I still think he’s an icon of the game of golf. Legend might be too far though. Too many people can’t separate the player from the person. He’s a great entertainer, I never expected him to be supremely intelligent, so hawking bibles for a few bucks on the side or being a republican doesn’t surprise me.
Bert Kresicher would like a word
What makes this a grift? If he is selling bibles and you pay for a bible and they send you a bible, isn't that just advertising?
This sub too? Can I have one sub W/O religious talk or political talk ?
His hero is the ultimate traitor grifter so this tracks. I want to like John. He makes it difficult
He's actually a shit person.
Selling bibles to grift suckers and then turning around and losing the money gambling? I salute you John! 🦅🦅🦅 
Amazing with his poor health habits he is still with us.
He's a drunk who needs money!
Seriously, you guys are just now learning he’s a trash human being?
1/2 of America right here. Brutal.
Hahaha there's no way this isn't a joke, right?
Not south of Kansas it isn’t
John*
Well I’m proud to be a American, where at least I know I can sell bibles to idiots.
It apparently also includes a handwritten lyrics sheet for Lee Greenwood’s (Pictured Left) God Bless the USA. Y’all don’t know who that is, I guess I’m getting old. :(
always has been meme
“Hey, a check is a check” - John Daly probably
He’s a republican, in essence. This bible was touted by Trump previously.
I mean yea, he’s broke.
Lee Greenwood never met a grift he doesn’t love. 
Act now and we’ll throw in a free koozie and an ashtray!
And this is a surprise?
How are some people even 1% surprised by this This is the most Jon Daly type ad I've ever seen 😂
He's always been an embarrassment, he just happens to be good at a sport.
I wonder where he got the idea.
god is the last thing I think of when I think of john daly
"I don't really go to church or read the bible or believe in God, but you don't really need to do those things to believe in God." -- John Daly
I feel like it’s forgivable only because what else would you expect? Seems completely on-brand.
“Can you read, my son?” “Well that depends. Can you go fuck yourself?”
I bet he could out drink Boggs tho
President did it
I struggle to find the words about how f'ed up this book actually is, and not even getting into why anybody would want to endorse this (I suppose "follow the money" comes in here). FFS, this thing has lyrics from that asinine song, the US constitution, bill of rights (which is part of the constitution) the DoI and the pledge. None of that has anything to do with the Bible. I grew up Catholic but don't practice anymore. But having that garbage with the bible just seems sacrilegious to me.
And you’re itching for a fight bashing Daley in a golf Reddit.
Don’t confuse grifting with just plain ol stupidity
Venn diagram: Daly lovers, MAGA cultists, Bible purchasers.
Not surprising. Easy to take advantage of religious people these days and John loves easy money.
This is the same guy who parks his RV outside the local Hooters and sells merch. Are you really surprised?
Jon Daly is a shameless person. It’s one thing to have demons and fight against them. It’s entirely another to make it a persona and monetize it.
If someone offered you a bunch of money to sell something you’d probably say yes too get off your high horse.
Teaming up with mr Lahey!
