When I saw a DC Sports Bog post titled Elijah Dukes Tees Off, I was immediately excited. Shitcanned by the Rays after those unfortunate threatening to kill his wife and impregnating a 17-year-old foster child incidents, I couldn't help but wonder what Agent Steinz meant by Dukes "teeing off." Did Dukes lose his mind and yell at reporters? Did he beat his girlfriend with a seven-iron?
Nope, he was just at the driving range, where a chance encounter with the Post's videographer led to this four and a half minute exchange where Dukes comes off as strangely likable. He whiffs on a swing, sweats like Chris Berman, makes self-deprecating comments, and addresses "America" and "Golf Digest Edition Part I." And not once does he seem like he's about to attack anyone with the driver. He hardly seems like a monster at all.
Gosh, now I don't know what to believe in. If Elijah Dukes is a decent human being, anything's possible. All of my racist, sexist, and xenophobic [update: and religious] stereotypes may not be true. Heck, there might even be issues where shades of gray exist. Damn you, Dukes! You've destroyed everything I believe in!


Wait, athletes are people too? NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
He could use some practice with Lee Carvallo's Putting Challenge.
//you've selected power drive
Does this also mean we shouldn’t kidnap or kill hookers?
I never really had any problems with the guy. I mean, who amongst us HASN'T threatened to kill a bitch who gets on our last nerve? And the girl wasn't seven, she was seventeen, ya know? In most cultures that's prime marryin' age! Quite frankly, I've always been in this guy's corner. I'm really hoping he turns things around with the Nats next year.
You dead, ball.
Also charming and personable: Ted Bundy
Audible AND intelligible… Double threat guy!
Ah, I see that Elijah has the Michael Skakel edition golf club set there, good choice.
That’s actually not a bad swing
keep that left foot down, dawg.
He was there to establish an air tight alibi.
Does anyone else think that the driver was the only club that came out of the bag for that bucket.
Gotta keep that left foot planted Dukes!
Inside the white guy in the background’s head:
“Is he a rapper? He must be. Why are they filming? Is this a video? I hope Helen remembered to iron my god-damn shirt”
Oh white people. We’re so white.
