Deadspin
From AP: "John Daly woke up Wednesday morning to read that swing coach Butch Harmon fired him. Then he got a phone call when he was at the entrance to Bay Hill letting him know he had been kicked out of the Arnold Palmer Invitational for missing the pro-am." Wait, that sentence is wrong. It should have read:
John Daly woke up Wednesday morning on the front lawn of a junior high school, surrounded by empty tequila bottles and wearing a bra for a hat. Then he got a phone call letting him know that his pants were flying from the flag pole. /Fixed.
We mentioned Wednesday that Daly's coach cut him loose, but with Daly the fun just never stops.
Daly, who received a sponsor's exemption, played a Monday pro-am at Bay Hill and said he was asked to play the Wednesday pro-am, too. He requested a morning start, then called Tuesday to find out his tee time. A woman in the tournament office told him 9:47 a.m., which instead was his starting time for the first round.
But Daly also took down Nick O'Hern and Ryuji Imada as well. The two were alternates, and were called for the morning round when Daly didn't show. But since they weren't around, they were also disqualified.
It's not his fault! I blame Daylight Savings Time! Well, they'll all be sorry when the First Annual John Daly Invitational tees off next year.

I once saw John Daly get in a fight with the windmill on the 7th hole at The Lucky Pirate Putt Putt. He followed that up by taking a dip in the water hazard and mounting the ball-return hippo at the 18th.
It's bad enough the drinking is ruining his own life, but what about his unborn child?

All in all, one of his better days.
O, that I were a glove upon that hand.
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son.
ok, either its eating my comments or I just made the same bad joke twice... sorry
God, I missed that photo. Classique.
When your drinking is affecting your profession, you have to choose one or the other. I think we can all respect Daly's choice.
What is this Savings Time you speak of?
I know a kid who looked like John Daly a few years ago.
/Had a gut too
@Gourmet Spud: +1
This is all John Gruden's fault.
There's just something SO bad about being fired by your own employee...
@Gourmet Spud:
I think its just a food baby.
/juno
Daly doesnt believe in saving his golf game, marriage, liver, or lungs...who says we gives a shit about saving time?
You son of a bitch. I had Nick O'Hern in my fantasy league.
@CIALIS COOPER:
It's your own fault for not handcuffing him with Boo Weekley.
Answer: Golf.
Question: What is the only sport someone as unfit as John Daly can possibly play?
@Gourmet Spud: Since when do you handcuff last-round selections?
/ducks lightning bolt from Rob I.
//shits pants in fear
I thought the most surprising part was "John Daly woke up Wednesday morning."
I just realized that Par King in Morton Grove is GONE!
Another part of my youth.
Is Carl Spackler available to give Nibbles what for?
if he showed up with COCK painted on his forehead and his eyebrows were shaved. THEN he would be a victim.
Daly makes me feel good about myself in a "Well, I'm old and fat but I look like a God next to that tub of shit" kinda way.
Who knew Louie Anderson played golf.
You might be a redneck if...you're too drunk to be let into the Hooters tent at a golf tournament.
