Tiger Will Even Beat You At Passing Gas
As Tiger Woods begins his march for yet another Masters victory, we look deep into the soul of a champion, try to figure out what makes him who he is, why he is dominant, who he is inside. For some insight, we check out this quote from golf announcer David Feherty, who describes an ongoing contest h...
Hey, The Masters Start Tomorrow
Even though it's dreary outside and we're kind of ill from it — we don't ask much from weather except for it to make up its mind — it is obviously springtime, because The Masters start tomorrow....
CBS Is Taking Augusta By Storm
With the Masters just two days away, it's time to get in the swing of things, and by "swing of things," we mean looking like this....
The Dull Phil Mickelson
We tend to agree with The Mighty MJD: We have a hard time getting too excited about Phil Mickelson winning the Masters. He falls in that place now that's difficult for sports fans to follow or get behind: Completely lacking in storyline. Mickelson for years was the talented guy who could never win...
That Was Not As Much Fun As It Should Have Been
Phil Mickelson is your 2006 Masters winner. There was no drama on 18, there was no big finish. The 18th was just a formality. Phil Mickelson bumrushed the field, or perhaps more accurately, let the field bumrush themselves, en route to an easy green jacket....
A 10 Unlike Any Other
Tiger doesn't look like he wants to be a part of it, but we're going to have quite a finish to the Masters anyway. Phil Mickelson continues to lead by one stroke. He's at -6, with Freddie Couples one stroke behind and Jose Maria Olazabal and Vijay Singh two back....
A Ponytail Unlike Any Other
For the moment, I'm going to ignore the people who would tell you that "The Masters doesn't start until the back nine on Sunday." I've been watching for almost an hour already, and there's no way that Miguel Angel Jimenez's fucking head is bothering me this much without the tournament having start...
Masters Morning Mayhem
Golf was on at 8 a.m. this morning, which was a pretty good way to ensure that I wouldn't be watching it. But I missed some compelling action, it seems....
We Will Have Golf Today
This was supposed to be a post about golf. I suppose it still is, but I wanted to tell you that Tiger Woods was making a charge, Chad Campbell was holding steady, Rocco Mediate had started yelling "ALRIGHT, ROCCO!" everytime he made a birdie putt, and Phil Mickelson and Vijay Singh really did wres...
A Weather Forecast Unlike Any Other
They are getting in some golf today at The Masters, despite some nasty storms passing through the area. A lot of players are on the course right now, and some are making the most of the soft greens. Miguel Angel Jimenez, Jose Maria Olazabal, Tim Herron, and Jim Furyk are all 2-under-par on the day....
Tiger Woods Successfully Completes High Five
As we congratulate Tiger Woods for finally figuring out the correct way to slap another man's hand with his own, we take a look at the Masters, which, for all its bluster and Carlyle Group vibe, is the one golf tournament we look forward to every year, even if it's just because it reminds us that ev...
Jim Nantz, King Of The WASPs
As The Masters tee off today — complete with cigarettes and littered beer cans everywhere — we cast our eyes again to Jim Nantz. After playing toadie to Billy Packer for a while — and is there a worse possible job description on earth than "Billy Packer's toadie?" — Nantz heads to Augusta, a place...
Ah, The Pageantry Of Augusta
This is John Daly teeing off during a practice round at the Masters yesterday, in a photo from The Augusta Chronicle. If you ever had any doubt as to why John Daly is popular, that doubt should now rest. Yes, yes, a tradition unlike any other....
