O'Grady is an Idiot if he Thinks Technology Makes Tiger Woods Great

This has to be a cry for help because this statement is just plain stupid: “When Nicklaus and Palmer played, when [Ben] Hogan played and Sam Snead played, on a scale of zero to 10, they were a nine-plus,” Mac O’Grady said. “Tiger Woods is not even a one-plus.” Then, this dolt has to go out and show his continued ignorance by saying: “The reason why [Woods] can hit it on the green is because he has square grooves,” he said. “He doesn’t have that, he’s dead. He cannot do it – it’s impossible. For him to go after Nicklaus’s records ...

Up here in Minne “snow” ta, we are big watchers of the weather. Sometimes Northerners like us say: “If you don’t like the weather, just wait a few hours and it will change.” We often talk about record snowfalls like the Halloween blizzard (30 inches on October 31st) or record cold temperatures. We constantly argue every winter if International Falls really is the coldest spot in the nation and if Good Morning America reports that we are, aren’t we proud. The hardy souls in the land of 10,000 lakes seem to always be captivated by the local weatherperson, who ...

I was wondering if the Wie Circus could get any worse. Was I ever wrong. Now remember, I predicted that this return was going to be a non-event. In her inglorious return to competitive LPGA tournament play, the phenom, the queen of hype, Miss Sparkly herself Michelle Wie, has again tripped over her huge pile of endorsement cash and fell flat on her face (er..wrist). What a joke she has become. When she quit the latest tournament she said to an LPGA Tour official: “We’re not going to play anymore.” Oh you big baby. Take it like a professional. I thought ...
