The Masters

Morning, kids...if you are a golf junkie, this is your week...as the best of the sport for the guys, is staged in Augusta, Georgia...the site of the Masters...never been there...but, from all that have, it is said to be absolutely gorgeous...and, the players consider it to be the plum for their bucket list...THIS is the one that they dream of winning...

So...who is it going to be this year?...can a 46 yr old Lefty find enough fairways to win it again?...DJ has won most everything else, how about this one?...maybe Rory?...the list goes on...Spieth?...will that area dodge the crazy weather of the south and east?...Q's to be answered...the Horse thinks that it may be Rory or DJ...but, I know nuttin...just like to watch the event from afar...

And THIS is why you want to win...the honor to host the 'Champion's Dinner', with all of the past champions in attendance...with their very own green jackets on...way cool...what a marvelous collection of golfers...see if you can name 'em all...

I am aghast at the story out of the state of Washington...that a guy comes home and finds an intruder in his house, taking a shower...confronts and shoots the villain...and the home owner gets arrested!...some thing is either wrong with the story, or with their police force...right?...I guess I may have shown my slant...

Break up the Pads!...geez, they laid a number on the highly favored Bums last eve...the much travelled SD pitcher, Clayton Richards, threw a shut out...and we came out with a 4-0 win...the line was a 50 point fav for LaLa...I think we had 4 double plays...matching last seasons entire year...just kidding, ye ol faithful Padres...

The ugly rumor out of Syria...that the ruling party there used gas against their own people...again...allegedly...the world has to be up in arms...right?...is it time to get in their and help those people?...

Have you noticed how many of the major companies are owned by others?...like conglomerates...Krispy Kreme...yup, them...the donuts...own the Keurig coffee empire...and the Peet's Coffee...and, now are buying up Panera Bread...the rich get stronger...something like that...

Barry Manilow...has admitted to being hitched to a feller...?...in this day and age, it can't be called earth shattering...but, he must have felt it was time for him to announce to his peops that he is gay...and this is news?...surprised you ?...

For all the hullabaloo of where QB Tony Romo was going to go...he ends up going into the analyst's booth for CBS...no longer a player...now, a talker...and ruffled many in the biz, by getting a number one gig...over many who have been doing it for years...not his fault...blame the network who hired him...

Polls...here we go again...if you can believe 'em...but they say that the awful Colbert Show is way ahead of Fallon's Show...give me a break...of course, I don't stay up for either of them anymore...Colbert is NOT funny, when I do...biased journalism here...ah yes, the infamous Nielsen Ratings...BTW, they ever contact you?...right, no one I have ever known...hmmm...the Horse Poll has Colbert at a near zero in humor...just a few groans beneath Maher...

The fallout of the LPGA ruling on the huge cheating scandal of Lexi Thompson...where she incorrectly replaced her ball like a foot closer to the hole (joke)...and got a 4 shot penalty...well, the LPGA Commissioner even said that she had too severe of a penalty....duh...there should be a time limit to when you can penalize a player...certainly, not when she (or he) is playing the next round...

Maybe it's time to revise our Congressional Crap...and do away with the 'filibuster' part of the Congressional Floor...so, the dudes and dudettes won't vote for something...or against...and prolong doing so...give us all a break....what a crock in the system...

NBA...just when I thought that PDX had a strangle hold on the 8th spot in the playoffs...their center went down...and the coach has decided to go small ball...and the opponents play high and low...and score at will at the hoop...and the Blazers are losing it, man...and the Nuggets are making a last ditch effort to get the spot...a week of games to go...shoot...

And that's the way it is...in the Horse World...4/5/17...the song for the day?...has to be 'Copacabana' by...well, you know who...
