Good Good is no longer the sponsor of the PGA Tour event.

The company is stepping away as title sponsor of the November tournament in Austin. The event will still be played Nov. 12-15. Another partnership gone after the driver ad fallout.

Cancel Cancel Culture .

I remember when Happy Gilmore assaulted multiple people on tour and got a hired as a spokesperson for a company. How times have changed.

Everyone who’s pulled out of working with Good Good so far:

• Callaway — cut ties completely, donating $1M to anti-violence causes
• Golf Galaxy / Dick’s Sporting Goods — pulled merchandise from stores and websites, withdrew as presenting sponsor of Big Break x Good Good
• PGA Tour Superstore — pulled merchandise
• Target — removed products from its online shop
• Golf Channel — postponed the Big Break x Good Good premiere after a sponsor (Golf Galaxy) requested branding removal

PGA Tour title sponsorship of the November Austin event is still listed as “fluid.”

Callaway just cut Good Good and pledged $1 million to ending violence against women.

Over a shove in a driver ad.

Druski just dropped a new CTE skit.

Funny until you realize the NFL has been living this plot for 20 years.

Beginning this season, all NFL rookies will wear a Debut Patch on their jersey.

Topps is back as the league’s official trading card licensee. After a player’s first on-field appearance, the patch comes off and goes into a 1-of-1 autographed card. New wrinkle for the collectibles game.

Packers joint practice didn’t go good.

Offense started hot then faded. Lost all four two-minute drills to the Cardinals, drops in the red zone, and Arizona’s defense started picking off Love late. Sloppy finish to the last public practice of camp.

Garrett Clark, co-founder of Good Good Golf, has released a video addressing the controversy surrounding the Callaway driver advertisement.

Body-cam just dropped from Jed York’s trailer-park arrest.

Officer on the tape: “He’s got all the money. It’s crazy the people that do this. They could do whatever they want. It’s wild.”

$8.5 billion net worth. $160 meetup. “Just driving.”

The NFL is ending the Pro Bowl game.

No more standalone tackle or flag football contest. The Pro Bowl honor stays — 88 players selected the same way — but it becomes an individual award with a February celebration in L.A. instead of an actual game. Ratings had cratered and players had lost interest in the exhibition.

𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: The NFL will abolish the Pro Bowl game, per @jjones9

It will remain an individual performance award.

A massive change to the league.
