Thank you Ryan Ballangee! Comedy! We love you Feherty, you remind us we have to laugh at ourselves first, then turn to you…
…kids at a charity event slam David in the stones with a tennis ball. Ouch!!!!
Now can we please get Johnny Miller on a dunking machine?
Fergie, the AP’s golf beat writer says that Gray and Brown were composed in their discussion about Gray’s intrusive 14th tee questioning. Apparently other caddies were outraged about the breach of etiquette. From the article: “Johnson’s caddie, Bobby Brown, had the wrong tee time for the opening round, leading to a two-stroke penalty. Brown...
After a second embarrassing vehement altercation in six months with PGA TOUR interview subjects, Golf Channel broadcaster Jim Gray – who was called “pushy” and worse by fellow journalists and broadcasters – has been removed by Golf Channel from this week’s coverage of the Northern Trust open at Riviera Country Club. Gray, who was...
Okay, so it wasn’t the “Golden Shower” he discussed with porn stars, but was it “spitto, spittere” or “hactui splatum?” The old Latin I joke came true for a still embattled and controversy embroiled Tiger Woods as many in the golf World are horrified by his breach of golf etiquette, basic manners, and hygiene. With what looks...
Pictures, they say, are worth 1,000 words. I’ll give you a few anyway. This O-lame-pus Comedian wasn’t fit to photograph my cat’s litter box. So I had my new Brian Symonds oversized, mega-soled, 64-degree sand wedge do the product review for me. The sand wedge and my new Nikon – which took as its first photo the snapshot above – work...
Since silly season is upon us, I can turn my attention to Jay’s Golf Awards, known around here as the Jazzys. Last year, we only gave out two awards since the Tiger scandal scud-attacked every other story all December, (not to mention the rest of the year). We gave out the 2009 Turkey of the Year to Woods for being a poor sport and role model, but that was...
Lots of people these days believe the old joke, “Insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting a different result.” On that note – Quick! – someone decide quick whether to reserve a Bellevue bed or straight-jacket for Woods, Agent Mark Steinberg or both because New Tiger looks and sounds just like Old Tiger: new year, same...
Tony Korologos played golf with a prominent amateur who apparently has million-dollar talent but a ten-cent head. According to this story, a thief who stole frozen yogurt from a store actually bragged about it on Facebook. I told you it was a good time to bring back “Think B4 you Facebook something stupid!” Tony and I will be teaming up the day after...
Here we go again. You can’t make this stuff up…well I wouldn’t anyway. Enresto the Iguana, who handles sports prognostication, security, and runner duties around here wanted to get all Medieval on people who were making it impossible to read my Facebook page because they post 48 times a day (really…I have three friends on that pace…)...
The most grisly shuck in golf came to a delicious end today when PGA Tour officials essentially told the odious Turning Stone Casino that they are not good enough to host their own stand-alone tournament during the regular golf season. After failing to draw a major championship to their over-priced, under-designed chump-trap, and after failing to convince the Tour...
This week two different Jezebels that Tiger Woods unwisely let get too close have been passing out their tabloid-esque tabs of black acid to anyone dumb enough to stick out their tongue. Porn star and hooker Devon James and high-end prostitute Loredana Jolie (no relation to Angelina except in general decrepitness) have been trying to sell their stories but with less...
No he’s not a towel-headed terrorist out to jihad his way into Dan Jenkins’s next novel. No he’s not some dude in disguise playing hooky from work. He’s paying homage to…wait for it…Miguel Angel Jimenez! (Can’t spell major without MAJ.) Jay Busbee at Yahoo Sports has the full story. I guess Jimenez, like Monty and Leonard...
No heavy lifting today: instead we’ll catch our breath before the Tour Championship and have a quick laugh and a smile. First, Paula Creamer took that grillion-dollar, mega-watt smile to the USAF and flew a mission over Oakmont Country Club. Steve DiMeglio of USA got the best assignment of the week. From his article: “Reaching speeds of 650 mph — and...
Jim Furyk scared the hack out of Fluff Cowan and Slugger White when he – normally Mr. Reliable – overslept and missed his pro-am tee time and was disqualified from the Barclays. His #3 ranking in the FedEx Flop will drop to somewhere between 7-10. Hank Gola of the New York Daily News reports: From the article: Tour rules official Slugger White gave this...
Jay Busbee has the scoop on a fan calling in and busting Juli inkster for the hideous crime of using a swing donut on a club while waiting for a backup to clear. My favorite similar story is the time Virginia team golfer Buddy Patch took the Medicus into play by accident during his first round at a team event. Then he slurred an apology drunkenly to the team for...
