Brandel Stands By Use Of Cavalier, Cheating Analogy
/From a Doug Ferguson AP story:
"I think 'cavalier with the rules' allows for those with a dubious opinion of the BMW video," Chamblee said Tuesday in an email to the AP. "My teacher in the fourth grade did not have a dubious opinion of how I completed the test. But she was writing to one, and as I was writing to many, I felt it important to allow for the doubt some might have, so I chose my words accordingly.
"What people want to infer about that is up to them," he said. "I have my opinion, they can form theirs."

Also having had more time to digest the piece, it's noteworthy that Chamblee's Golf Channel and golf.com employers aren't speaking. And Brandel is not worried about Mark Steinberg's consideration of legal action.
"I thought it incomprehensible that anyone with the slightest understanding of libel laws wouldn't know the definition of and the difference between libel and opinion," Chamblee said.
