Priapism at the AT&T National

At 6:10 on July 8, I was sitting on my couch eating dinner with my six-year-old son as we watched the AT&T National’s final round wind down. OK, so maybe you don’t eat dinner in front of the TV. Go piss up a rope.

Anyway, one of the tournament’s other big sponsors, Cialis, had an ad on at this time. I couldn’t find the remote and, before I knew it, the guy is saying that even if he gets interrupted, his erection medicine will still work because Cialis stays in your system for 36 hours.

Then, the spot’s announcer voices over some advice about contacting your doctor is you experience priapism. Now, I’m no prude, but I really didn’t want to explain to my son what a painful, four-hour erection is all about. He doesn’t know about sex yet and I’m not ready for him to learn. Jesus, I hate to sound like Tipper Gore here, but can’t you even watch golf without having to suffer through penis talk?
