PGA Tour pro films man taking his thrown out golf bags, finds them on Craigslist
You know what they say. One man's trash is another man's treasure — to be sold on Craigslist.
RELATED: Married golfer posts saddest Craigslist ad ever
Such is the case this week as PGA Tour pro Kyle Thompson tossed out three of his old golf bags only to see someone drive by and scoop them up. You're probably thinking, What's the big deal? Those staff bags are cool. I'd snag them as well. Perhaps. But Thompson promises “they were in bad shape.” Regardless, the video Thompson captured of this going down (2nd slide of Instagram) is pretty funny:

Look how stealthy that guy is. He even left the door of his truck open while he scooped up the bags and put them in the back so he could hop back in and make a quicker/quieter getaway. That's a pro move right there. Which led to the other pro move of trying to turn, um, acquired goods into cash. Thompson, a five-time winner on the Web.com Tour, did a little investigating and . . . boom:

Bill Murray’s greatest golf style statements through the years
Jeff GrossBill Murray is synonymous with many things: Wes Anderson, the Chicago Cubs, your dad laughing for the first time in what feels like decades. But of all his trademarks, his 25-year reign as golf's style kingpin is easily (and obviously) our favorite. From berets to bell bottoms to full gilly suits, the Artist Formerly Known as Carl Spackler has consistently pushed the sartorial envelope to its breaking point, and to honor this trailblazing absurdity (and unrivaled hat collection), we compiled some of our favorite Bill fashion moments over the years. So without further ado, we present the man, the myth, the Murray.

Rick Pitino joins Twitter, continues to make horrible life decisions every chance he gets
Joe RobbinsWhile he'll likely never admit it, deep down in places Rick Pitino doesn't talk about at parties (or in tell-all books, or radio interviews, or italian restaurants, etc.), there's probably a few decisions he wishes he could have back in life. Add joining Twitter, something he did out of the blue on Thursday, to Pitino's list of questionable moves he's DEFINITELY going to wish he had back.
No, creating a Twitter is not exactly like cheating on your wife or basically allowing strip clubs to operate in your team's dorm, but it will still go down as one of the dumber moves the former Louisville head coach has made in the last decade. Just wait until you see how he explained it:

“For years I have stayed away from Twitter..” Good! No, GREAT job Rick! Twitter is awful for people who have absolutely no baggage whatsoever, and it's REALLY awful for people with baggage, which you have in abund..
