There’s nothing I detest more than a phony, and Dennis Silvers, aka the Las Vegas Golf Guru, takes the cake.

Here’s a guy who brayed and bragged about being a no-holds-barred, kick-ass, tell-it-like-it-is blogger. But, when it came time to do just that, he backed down into a corner like a quivering, church mouse. Turns out, the Guru was making money from all those Vegas kingpins who think nothing about screwing the little guy to make an extra buck. Oh, he had all kinds of nasty things to say about people OUTSIDE of Vegas, but when it came time to talk straight about wrongdoing in his own town, he clammed up, becasue he was making money off them. He did exactly what he complained about OTHER people doing.

Silvers is finally getting his just reward now after being publicly humiliated, called on the carpet for his hypocrisy and being voted off TravelGolf by his fellow bloggers. I think he’s been punished enough and I hope, for his sake, he comes clean with the listeners of his talk radio show. If he is going to continue in the business with a shred of credibility, he must. Guru, it’s up to you. Fans love public figures who ‘fess up, and usually forgtive them.
