Downey’s Description: Was It Out of Bounds?

A “slob” can be slovenly, sloppy, crude and obnoxious not only in dress, manners and personal hygiene but also in use of language.

To call someone who played with the skill and finesse that Scott Hoch did in the Masters a “poor slob” makes one, well, something of a slob.

Come on Mike Downey, back to the dictionary.
