Sunday State of Mind: June 5th-June 11th

The sports sure sported this week; SSM is here to recap.

Tough time down in Florida, on the biggest stage
Finals and The Stanley Cup, fans are full of rage
Panthers and the Heat, both down three games to one
Elimination likely coming soon, both seasons soon done

LIV and PGA, now the best of friends
As the story goes, money always transcends
Now partners in crime, golf has fully changed
Most players want Jay Monahan’s face rearranged

Four straight Pro Bowl seasons, racking yards and touchdowns
He made Vikes fans happy, did his part to decrease frowns
But now he’s a free agent, he’s got his choice of teams
Whoever signs Dalvin Cook will feel like it’s a dream

Have to say this while we can, The Oakland A’s are hot!
Four wins in a row this week, for them that’s a lot
A sad season in progress, good to get some shine
Since they won those four, likely to lose next nine

Don’t You Dare Call This Man Brooksy

His name is not Brooksy. That is not the name of the person in the photo above. His name is Bryson, Bryson DeChambeau.

After Bryson, not Brooksy, continued to take L after L in his very public feud with Brooks Koepka, fans began calling Bryson “Brooksy” (remember, his name is not Brooksy, it’s Bryson).

The PGA Tour had apparently seen enough, and leaped to Bryson’s (not Brooksy’s) defense:


Listen, we’re an anti-bullying blog here at UDS. But if a professional athlete cannot handle fans calling him the wrong name, maybe your focus isn’t in the right place.

So, just to review:

– Bryson, not Brooksy, argued with rules officials whilst carding a 10 on the 15th hole at The Memorial Tournament last year.

– Bryson, not Brooksy, asked for a free drop because of ants at last year’s WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational.

– Bryson, not Brooksy, had his caddie quit on him mere hours before the 2021 Rocket Mortgage Challenge.

– Bryson, not Brooksy, was compared to an “eight-year-old that gets mad” after blaming his clubs in a post round interview after The Open this year.

– Bryson, not Brooksy, told a fan to “get the fuck out” after being called Brooksy (not Bryson), after losing The BMW Championship this past weekend.

Per everyone’s favorite golfer’s wishes, we wanted to make it clear the Bryson DeChambeau, and no one else, is responsible for the above.

Good luck with the non-name change, champ.
