Golf Team Captain Jack Hiscock and Rest of Team Suspended for Naked Pics 

I'm sorry for posting this picture

Any athletic team with a captain named Jack Hiscock is going to have problems.  Here we go.

Athletes posing for risque calendars is nothing new, remember the 80's movie Campus Man? So it's no surprise the 15 members of the Bethany College men's golf team figured it was no big deal to strip, place their clubs strategically in front of their groins and say cheese.

And then post the photo on Facebook. Ouch!

Unfortunately, Bethany is a small Lutheran school in Lindsborg, Kan., that plays in Midwest events like the Evangel Tournament, the Central Christian Tournament and the Oklahoma Baptist Tournament. Double Ouch!

Christian college golf takes a dim view of this kind of thing, even partial nudity. So athletic director and golf coach Jon Daniels, who was emailed the picture by someone, suspended the team for three tournaments.

"I've been around a long time and I think this is a case of young people who just don't think beyond the moment and don't realize who they're hurting,"

Bethany, by the way, is very good on the links: The Swedes have won 11 of the last 15 KCAC championships.

Captain Jack Hiscock (I told you) reportedly said the team would appeal the suspension to the school president.

In their defense, it should be noted that the golfers seem to be covering their shafts mostly with drivers. Could have been worse. They could have used golf tees.  Insert your own jokes at this point.
