Try as it might, golf will never totally shake its image as a pastime for stuffy snobs.....With THAT in mind,having more "animal hazards" would make it more entertaining.For added fun, experienced handlers would actually release the predatory threats at opportune moments when the golfers weren't looking: T.Woods running fearfully for his life with a couple hungry wolves in pursuit---Are you gonna tell me that THAT wouldn't make an awesome gif?

Hahah.

Would a dog be more or less preferable in that situation?

Here's the article I originally read about it in:

Was thinking that it would be some small pueblita, but Xalapa is a decent-sized town that's the capital of a large state.If you look towards the Gulf of Mexico, you'll see a long,skinnier California-shaped state, and that's Veracruz.

To answer your question, a dog would be loyaller to the people in the city, but a self-centered,spoiled cat would be more clever and adapt to the wheeling-and-dealing of politics.

Maybe the Mexicans, like the rest of us, want to try having felines rather than felons running their government?

We all know that the WTA goes to embarrassing lengths to legitimize AI; b/c she has only made one Slam QF in FIVE YEARS(and even THAT one with an easy-ass draw), the WTA is following in the footsteps of humanist-run public education by dumbing down the standards: They comment that she has a "streak" of reaching the 4th round of 4 consecutive Slams.Can you imagine the huge celebration in the Graf camp every time that Steffi achieved such a monumental.....streak

Well, the WTA webpage has reached another nadir in keeping with the pathetic Allaster realm of No Accountability. They have an article where AI shares her brilliant insights on the successful transition from clay to grass. The problem is.....when you cite a source for any particular topic.....that source ought to have an ounce of credibility.This is why our waste-of-life,ex-president Salinas isn't ever invited to lecture on political corruption.

It was probably assumed that AI would beat Vesnina in the 1st Round....though Elena V. is,by most accounts,a really sweet gal(unlike the phony,smile-in-your-face then stab-you-in-the-back Serb)--and a SUPERB doubles player--the fact is that she has never once gone past the round of 16 at ANY WTA-level grass-court tourney.We can only speculate what activities in Ana's hotel room Sunday night caused her to fall to grass GOAT Vesnina the next day(maybe a cricket snuck into her room and wouldn't stop chirping)...yet the WTA insisted on carrying through with the laughable clay-to-grass 'advice column' from someone who hasn't made a Wimby QF since 2007.The WTA p.r. retards should realize that their desperate pro-AI propaganda efforts only make them appear LESS believable......common sense,really
