John Daly Is Wearing Kooky Pants To Raise Prostate Cancer Awareness
Yep, the controversial golfer is endorsing am apparel company called Loudmouth, whose spokesperson said , “John’s pants are splashed with brightly colorful fingers to represent the early detection prostate cancer screening procedure for men.”
Today, at the PGA Championship Tournament, John is wearing pants that look like an American flag was spun onto him from a giant cotton candy machine.
The brain dead staff of the SFGate ran the story – complete with the picture below of Daly wearing Loudmouth pants during a British Open practice round while SMOKING A CIGARETTE!
John is laughing, and then going into coughing fits, all the way to the bank.

He ain’t no Payne Stewart (may he rest in peace) but he doesn’t get lost in the crowd, either. I love ‘em.

I was wondering what that glow to the south and east of me was. Yet, I am thinking… For a golfer to raise awareness of prostate cancer. One would think he would be of better service, stowing his putter in his pooter. Don’t ya think?

John is a character. When God made him he threw away the mold. Keep going John. We love you.

I don’t follow golf, haven’t played in years. But the guy’s got chutzpah for wearing the pants and holding the cigarette. Bet he has the middle finger of his left hand extended to the anti smoke people.

“John is laughing, and then going into coughing fits, all the way to the bank.”
…AND giving them the finger.

I do not see one polyp on those pants. Perhaps on the inside??

@ Moe Tom. Amen Brother! John is every golfer I have ever played with. Not the country club elite. More a hero to the “Muni Duffer”. A man of the common man.

I watched Daly when he won the Buick in San Diego a few years ago. He teed off on the first hole, strolled up to his ball smoking a cigarette, tossed his smoke on the ground and hit his second shot within 10 feet of the pin, picked up his cigarette and strolled onto the green. All the man needed was a beer cart following his group, and he was everyman’s typical Sunday golfer. (Albeit with a 340 yard drive).
He lives life by his own rules, and is one of my favorite golfers.

Thank God we still have men like Daly that live their lives the way they want to, without apologies.

Maybe the problem is his cigarette. Causes all kinds of problems.

Cigs aren’t the problem. It’s the people who should have a smoke and a beer after their pizza, instead of whining to the M.D. that they are depressed and need anti-depressants that are the problem.

Cigs are not the issue. Johns a big time drinker. He’s lost a wife, been kicked out of a couple tournaments, been subjected to rehab all due to alcohol. Came out a few days after being admitted and proclaimed, I’m a drunk, and I’m O.K. with that. I love the dude.

Tiger won’t even acknowledge people who have waited hours to see him pass by with a fist bump or hand slap. So yes, I hate smokers but I will give John a pass on this one. Tiger is a dickhead and deserves his misfortune.

Before seeing John Daly’s pants I had completely forgotten about the fact that I had my prostate removed five years ago due to cancer
Then it all came back to me. So that’s what that five inch long red mark on my abdomen is, it’s my incision scar. And I guess that explains why I no longer need tissue paper after I jack off; I thought I had just dried up over the years. And I guess that’s why every year when I got my rectal exam the doctor’s always going “What the hell, where the fuck is your prostate?”
Thanks, John Daly’s pants, for re-raising my awareness

I feel your pain! I’m still annoying blog sites (like The most Fabulous IOTW) because I had my totally F’d prostate removed a couple of years ago too. Otherwise I’d be competing for virgins in HELL with a whole shitload of muzzies. (I guess I’ll be doing that later).
The PSA test was the “only” thing that indicated I had a problem! No other symptoms! Get checked! It’s a simple blood test. The doctors finger FAILED!
If you’re over 40 and haven’t had it checked, you should do it soon. I was 52 when I decided it was time. I was way late. It’s no fun, but I did well in surgery. A robot(controlled by my surgeon) did it, and the incisions were minor. I got lucky, I got rid of it before it went elsewhere.
So, don’t PISS me off! Prostate cancer sucks! And if you don’t believe it, don’t count on getting sucked ever again. Think about it.
I’m lucky, and the technology is getting better on the surgery. Blah Blah Blah…

Roger the getting checked, Sarthurk & ern goose! Asymptomatic myself. Last March, I got my prostate shot full of Iodine 125 implants.
But I’m thinkin’ those pants may CAUSE prostate cancer rather than raising awareness of it.
