    ...and don't try to tell me it doesn't matter b/c Tiger isn't playing.

    Go Rocco!
    Go Weirsey!
    Go Norman!

    If Tiger Woods can't be bothered to not be injured for the event, then i can't be bothered to care.

    Tom Lehman teased me for 13 holes today, then, like every time in the past but once, he succeeded in disappointing me.

    It was once said there are only 2 things you don't have to be good at to enjoy, sex and golf.

    As for the correlation, there is none, except I used to gambooool a ton on the golf course, don't anymore so much, but it's a great game. Golf can be very peaceful and relaxing if that is why you're doing it. When I used to play competitively I got to a point where I hate the game, now I might play 6-10 times a year, and I really enjoy it. I'm nowhere near as good as I once was, but now it's a lot more fun b/c the pressure has been lifted.

    Looks like I may have saved some money in not backing Westwood & Rose. They need to get their shit together.

    rose is doing alot better now, and westwood is hanging in there, though neither will win I dont think. you have to have so much respect for norman and watson though, who can still cut it with the big boys even into their mid to late 50's. my pick for the tourney is the goose.

    That's the most blatantly sexual remark you've ever made spenda... and that's harassment... and I don't have to take it.

    seriously I LOL'ed and woke my daughter up from a nap I fought with her to take for 45 minutes.. you're a dick!
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes

    God I love KJ

    Also, DAVID DUVAL SIGHTING WTF

    Seriously, for a second it looked as if the final group tomorrow might be Duval/Norman which would be ridiculous.

    First Norman, now Duval and no Tiger...am I back in the mid 90s??? This is crazy...

    Watch out for Jim Furyk on the weekend...just 3 shots back and two consistent rounds of 71...he will be the one to beat this weekend.

    I really hope Harrington & Norman stay in the reckoning tomorrow. Could be a great finish.
