What once was a pristine stop on the PGA Tour, was the Doral GC in Miami, Fla ...a gorgeous piece of land that was set in the "tropics" of this country...but... it has been Trumped up ...changed to a ridiculous set of bunkers and water traps all over the yard ...that even the best of the best can find dry land to hit their shots...and the announcers go on...afraid to say what they really feel about it...an absolute joke...the best after 2 rounds...-1, by 4 blokes... well over 100 shots have found water ...by 50 of the top pros in the earth...imagine what you or I would be doing...and the greens...lordy...new and firm...unfair type...a bloody joke...and who is to blame?...look at the moniker... The Trump Doral ...enough said... The NBA ...this is stuff...way too much is being made about what is going to happen with Carmelo Anthony, aka Melo ...where he is going to go...he plays NO D!...is a liability and at his age, will fight the dominate coach that he needs...I read an ...

If there was ever a time to "seek a new direction" , now is the time for the hapless Lake Show ...wait...didn't they just embarrass the Blazers a few days ago in PDX?...well...they got beat down by the Clips ...by an all time score...of destruction...48 points... 48! ...in the most shellacking of rivals...let's see...these are pros... right?...and the Lakers were the "home team"... eegads, the worst, Jerry, the worst... Speaking of the worst...this group of "Idols" is the just that... I see no one there that will do anything ...and I am through with it...it's that bad...no interest...like I have been saying, this unfound singing genre is too watered down...when the highlight of the show is to watch JLo... Cat fight between Katy and the atrocious Miley...this gal gets more and more disgusting every day...and she just laughs in the face of all of us...because the press won't quit on her... Man, am I negative today...but I feel that a...

Remember

When the Bums were known for their very massive complex in Vero Beach, Florida?...they had streets, golf courses, shoot, everything named after famous Dodger players and well...management...we went there and it was way cool...and so now?...they moved out west to Arizona...had to be a major blow to the city... When the golf superstars were just that?...the tantrums that Tiger goes through...the F bombs on a regular basis...think you would have ever heard Jack or Arnie mutter that so the world would have heard?...did you ever hear of them walking off the course when they were struggling?... When the best women singers were known for singing and not for the deplorable acts of vulgarism?...take note Miley...and your hero, Madonna...before them...like a Connie Francis ...or a Carole King...imagine... When the amount of money a pro athlete made was in the thousands and not the millions?...and the price of a pro tix was under $10....not under a $1,000... When the price of a co...

Fantasy

Whoa, hang in there kids...I'm talking FANTASY BASEBALL ...a topic that hangs on with me for an entire season...silly little daily checks on what happened in the game...and prognosticating the day ahead...it is fun...it is easy...it is a kick in the arse...my team has been drawn...and I have three Padres on  it...not necessarily a good sign...but great pitching, i.e. the Bum's Kershaw, and the Mariner's King... I think I am going to have a very, very good one... It was Phat Tuesday ...and Marsh got some passes...and I balked...there is this massive street party and parade down in the GQ...it is reported that they had 20,000 peops show up...really...which I have written and showed pix of in the past years...instead, we gawked at 4 more issues of the House of Cards ...geez, we lurve this show...oh yea, my golf...my new driver was a plus...after I tweaked it...I can't tell you my nickname for it...as I do so for all my cherished items and friends...but lordy, my play ...

Staying in the golf world...another bloody playoff...this time in the PGA...at the infamous Bear Trap in Miami...ha ha...I might be wrong on the name...anyway...it was more of a collapse of major proportions by the young gun, Rory McIIlroy ...who backed up and let many other blokes in the hunt...turned out to be a 4 man OT event...and the winner?...none other than Russell Henley ...a cool cat, who also strums the guitar...and calmly birdied the 1st and won...and... concerns again about Tiger ...who started the final round in contention...and was a mess and was 5 over....and then quit ...on the 13th....right before the Bear Trap...hmmm...says a bad back...hmmm... I am mesmerized by the House of Cards ... Kevin Spacey is awesome....absolutely lurve the story lines...and we are like in the middle of season one....thank goodness there are many episodes...unlike Downton Abbey's pathetic 9... The Pads are still winless...and boom!... Cam Maybin is injured already...better now t...

I stayed up to midnight watching the final round of the LPGA thinger in Singapore ...you see, the gals play all over the world for their tour...and it was another W for veteran Karrie Webb ...who has found a youth pill lately...or so it seemed...as she stumbled a bit...and let some others get back into the fray...one being in a group just ahead of her...none other than America's dahling, Paula Creamer. ..who was putting lights out...and closed the gap...in fact, tied her... OK, I am going to say this in a nice way... the pace of play by the final group was horrendous ...wait, that's not nice...they made the senior PGA turtle, the German, seem like a rabbit...geez, they were 2 holes behind...in that group was a sweet swinger from Spain, Azahara Munoz ... who just may be the culprit of the pace problem ...she was involved in a similar thing a year or two back...remember?...when Morgan Pressel was penalized for Munoz's delaying tactics... OK... Munoz kept closing too ......
