IMO, blowing off charity appearances is bush league, and then offering the explanation of what equated to essentially "I didn't feel like showing up" is awesome.Originally Posted by improbus
His "slave" comment about the Ryder Cup still rubs me the wrong way, and probably will for awhile.
I think Improbus was talking about the TW article Highlifeman.
While I don't watch any sport looking for the sportsmanship, I certainly appreciate it. It's kind of sad that I "appreciate" people who are at the bottom line polite.
Sorry, I was talking more in a general sense. Blowing off charity events is not cool and I was not aware of that.
I'm not going to root for the Pol Pot of golf, but I'm not going to root against someone because they are a little salty. It is not their job to be nice guys. It is their job to hit great bunker shots.

Excellent Pot Pot reference!

Sorry pet peeve
At this point, I wouldn't mind seeing a Sunday shootout between Perry and Campbell.
Angel Cabrera is close enough right now to make it interesting, but unless someone shoots 64 tomorrow, this is a 3 horse race.
I've got a couple questions about this Masters.
First is Kenny Perry trying to imitate Charles Barkely with his swing?
And second, why is Phil Mckelson wearing Shingo Katayama's shirts? I realize he's lost some weight, but he's still fat and no one needs to see that when they're trying to enjoy their weekend.

Furyk to -9 now.
There is a good chance that Tiger and Phil will be playing together tomorrow.

I like watching Kenny Perry- he swings like the rest of use.
Next Reds manager, second shooter. --Confirmed on Redszone.
The thing is, his swing is great. Yes, he has a couple of hitches, but his shoulders turn so level it's ridiculous. The way he clears he has almost no chance of hitting the ball right.

What I like about Perry's swing is that he is not coming out of his shoes like the younger guys, yet he's just as long. A couple years ago, I had a terrible sciatica flare up, so I found the only way to swing a club was to flatten out, a lot like he does. It was a fortunate discovery- I hit the ball much better that way.

In slow motion it looks great, I just think it's funny to watch him hit in real time because he's got a little bit of jerkiness and I can't help but think of Barkley.

Bold prediction:
Stricker, Sabbatini or Katayama win this thing.
Safe prediction:
Angel Cabrera adds another major to his resume.
I was really surprised how Chad Campbell rowed the boat home. Dude gave back 3 shots, although maybe him not playing with Kenny Perry on Sunday might be a good thing for the both of them.
I don't know, he finished bogey, bogey on Saturday too.
Tiger and Phil are paired together. I'd really like to see them both play well and possibly push each other to low numbers.

Tiger will win his first major after trailing through 54.
