A Quick Masters Review

~First and foremost I think we can say that Shingo definitely brought it with his Japanese flag hat and the plaid green and white pants. Unfortunately he did not even come close to making the cut so we only got two days of Shingo mania.

~Holy shit I was right for once. I picked the Titties to win and by golly he did. Mickelson's win can pretty much be summed up by his three hole explosion on Saturday when he went Eagle, Eagle, Birdie and by his shot lying in the woods between two trees which he landed within five feet of the hole. I just wish Westwood or Kim were a shot back on the final hole to see how the added pressure would have effected him.

~Hell, I almost went 3 for 3 on my missed cut predictions. I predicted Furyk to miss the cut and nailed it. He finished 91st out of 95. I predicted Sabbatini to miss the cut, as always, and he finished 80th. Finally I predicted Weir to miss the cut and he came close. He finished +8, 5th worst of all players who made the cut.

~Outside of the plane flying around with humorous slogans, Tiger wasn't exactly persecuted at the Masters this weekend. Just goes to show you how quickly he will return to the Tiger Woods of old where fans will forget that he had sex with every porn star in the nation and just remember that he's a really good golfer who is entertaining to watch. Now only if he wouldn't duck hook his driver into the woods about 4 times per round.

~Sucks to be Lee Westwood, three top three finishes in majors in a row, and in reality he's likely never going to win one.

~Fred Couples is completely overrated in golf history. Something to get into in more detail at some other time but just my thoughts this weekend.

~And finally check out pretty pants Polter's sunday outfit. Purple plaid with purple and white spikes. Solid. Unfortunately like Shingo, his golf game on the weekend was not.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
