2009 Open Championship Preview

The Open Championship is always fun, because the courses don't look pristine and it almost looks like they're playing in weeds. Plus the weather is going to suck this weekend and make things incredibly difficult.

4 People to Watch to Contend

Obvious is Obvious- Tigger Woo - He's a staple here. It's mandatory that you say he's going to be in contention.

Mr. Pretty Pants - Ian Poulter - Mr. Pretty Pants came in 2nd last year. Expect the Pretty pants to finish at worst top 10 this year.

Spiderman - Camilo Villegas - There's just something about his putting approach and his goofy outfits that will work this weekend.

The Youngster - Rory McIlroy - He's made the cuts in both majors this year and improved from the 20th finish in the Masters to the 10th finish at the US to the #1 position at The Open?

3 People Who Might Surpisingly Miss the Cut

US Win to British Fail - Lucas Glover - Mr. Glover came out of nowhere to win the US Open. 1 Hit Wonders often get crushed come the next major tournament.

The Titties - Phil Mickleson - He's not going to make the cut. I guarantee it.

The Dick - Rory Sabbatini - Screw Rory Sabbatini.

2 People to Root For this Weekend

The Bitter Scot - Colin Montgomerie - His old and only has so many appearances left in him. And while most people can't stand the man, to a certain extent I enjoy the relatively pissed of Scotsman.

The Emotional Brit - Darren Clarke - Its been about three years since Darren Clarke lost his wife to breast cancer and what better way to remember his wife and honor Mickelson's wife's battle than winning to Claret Jug.

1 Winner

SERGIO- Fuck It I'm going Sergio and the Monotone.

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
