Headline Los Angeles Daily News: Golf Linked to Longer Lives
This is another medical study that must have been bought and paid for by self-interested, clandestine self-promotional industries.
In this case the golf club makers and golf course operators.
All medical studies should be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism, as well as injected with a big needling question: Who paid for the study?
Where physicists rely on the golden rule of physics: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, I rely on my golden rule of every medical research study I read.
For every study there is an equal and opposite study.
This fantastic conclusion was reached when a while back, on the same page of the above mentioned newspaper, there were two coffee research studies. One said coffee is good for you; the other came to an equal but opposite conclusion.
Obviously, one came percolating up from the coffee industry, while the other was brewed up by the tea growers.
The real live-long golf story is just the opposite of the researchers conclusion that playing golf adds to longevity.
As long as there are old men who have wives who threaten to kill them if they don't get out of the house for a while at least five days a week; who are bored; who have nothing better to do; and thrive on stress, the game of golf, the pros, the broken club fixer guys and the greens keepers will live long and prosper.
