Today in golf..........

[SequSpur]

Mickelson paired against Tiger.

This is what the world wants to see, lets see who brings it.

[ShoogarBear]

Snooze Forum.

[Jimcs50]

It is on!!!

Shoog, this will have higher ratings than most NBA games, I can promise you that.

[JoeChalupa]

Go Tiger!!

[Jimcs50]

I am usually for Tiger, but I think it will really light a fire to this rivalry if Phil holds Tiger at bay and wins. Tiger obviously did not like losing #1 to VJ, and has come out this year better than ever, so another loss to a hot Phil will really make Tiger play and practice even harder.

[JoeChalupa]

I agree. I also think it is a good test for Phil and not allow Tiger to get into his head.

If Tiger goes for it like he has a tendency of doing..it could back fire big time.

Phil has been putting like a mofo.

[SequSpur]

Dear God let this thread die a slow and painful death, much like I feel when I am forced to watch golf on a perfectly good big screen tv............-pseudofan

[JoeChalupa]

Vijay has birdied 4 in a row and is now 2 shots back from Tiger, 4 off the lead.

[E20]

Golf is stupid and boring.

[JoeChalupa]

Tiger and Phil are making it real.

[JoeChalupa]

Tiger's back baby!!!

[Jimcs50]

That 297 yds 3 wood to that par 5 was not human. Tiger is going to repeat his 2000 campaign this year.

[T Park]

Tiger is back with a vegence.

Might try for the Grand Slam this year.


Hope he gets it.

[GoldToe]

I was kind of put off by Phil refusing to comment afterwards but he really wanted to put it to Tiger and the loss was just too much for him I guess.

[Jimcs50]

Phill was upset with himself. I liked the fact that he wants to get right back into a mano a mano last pairing soon. This is great for Golf. It is Jack vs Arnie, Jack vs Watson revisited. The two most exciting players at the top of their games....can not get any better than that.

I think with Vijay at the top of his game and Ernie dramatically winning the Dubai Classic that this could be one of the best years ever in golf.

I hate VJ and so does Tiger, so that rivalry is not near as good. The thing that makes the Tiger-Phil rivalry so good is that half the crowd is rooting for Tiger and half for Phil...that makes it a lot of fun to watch.

The thing for me is, I like both too. I did not like Phil at all til the time he was so gracious to Payne Stewart in the US Open dual. I like Phil now, but still lean towards Tiger a bit.

[T Park]

Phickelson is a cool guy, I got to meet and talk with him for about 2 minutes at a golf tourney in 98 when i was in high school with out golf team and hes a really really cool guy.

I root for him, tiger, Justin Leonard, and Chris Dimarco most of the time.


But thats the great thing about the PGA Tour, lots of great guys that are classy and cool guys.

Vijay is a prick though, he uttered the famous like "I dont do autographs" to a group of kids at the Houston open a couple years back I attended and from then on Ive said fuck him.

The fact that Vijay is a dick makes it more fun to see him lose. I think it's good for the game to see him play well and lose.

[JoeChalupa]

Tiger is hungry for another major and this could be his year.

[Jimcs50]

I think the Masters is a lock.

I wonder if they have the odds up yet on that. If so, I amm going to bet.

It is going to be an interesting Master's. But Tiger hasn't got a lock by
any means. There are so many golfer's with the "tweak" going now days,
who the hell knows. :smokin

Golf is stupid and boring.
Agreed.

Same thing with baseball...just a lazy man's sport that should be called a hobby.

[NameDropper]

Most men who find golf and baseball boring is because they suck at golf and baseball. If you understood the game it wouldn't be boring.

[Duff McCartney]

I understand the game of golf...and I occasionally watch it...but I do find it boring sometimes.

On a side note, I saw that Real Sports thing on Vijay Singh....seems alot of people think the guy is a dick, especially his ex-caddy.

[ALVAREZ6]

I understand both games well.
Baseball is one sport that you cannot suck at as long as you try hard and start playing at the same age you started playing your favorite sports.

Anyone can be good at any sport, it's all mental. From the beginning, you decide which sport you want to play.

I switched my favorite sports from soccer and hockey to basketball and football, and I was good at every one of them...it's just a mental thing.

[JoeChalupa]

I don't even play golf and I enjoy watching it on TV.
Granted, it is usually when Tiger is in the running but I keep on who's who simply because I read the sports section.
Baseball on TV can be boring but when it comes to the championship series I love it.
