The Unbearable Sadness of Blogging: Golf bloggers try anything in the offseason

Tuesday December 26, 2006 | 06:17:29 am 215 words, 1700 views  

The Holidays are a time of family, friends, and getting Uncle Bob to stop leering at all the nieces after he’s had one too many Hamms.

It’s also a time for TravelGolf.com and WorldGolf.com bloggers to try hurling anything against the wall in hopes that something will stick, in a fairly golf-free time of year. Myself included, let’s just be honest - the last week of December is Hail Mary time.

A quick recap of what they’re saying

Tim McDonald: “Ocean Course to host PGA Championship in 2012, too bad you’ll all be dead.”

Chris Baldwin: “Boobies. Heh heh heh. Boobies.”

William K. Wolfrum: “You see, the design of the hole makes it looks like a penis. Is that funny or what? I am NOT out of material!”

Brandon Tucker: “If Tiger Woods had tattoos, then I’d respect him.”

Chris Baldwin: “Donald Trump vs. Rosie O’Donnell? Oh, hell yes I can put a golf spin on that.”

Brandon Tucker: “I smuggled WMDs past airport security. How you like me now?”

Kiel Christianson: “Buy a copy of Jennifer Mario’s Michelle Wie book, get this blog for free.”

Mark Nessmith: “There are drugs at college. Michelle Wie is going to college. I think my point is clear.”

William K. Wolfrum: “Golf bloggers make silly season sillier.”

Even sadder, I've started three blogs and been unable to finish any of them. At least the aforementioned have the time and the inspiration to put fingers to keys and hammer out some worthwhile drivel. My drool is still gummed to my lower lip.

Are you accusing me of a cheap trick!?

Truth be told, I posted that blog because A) I thought it'd be an amusing cheap trick. Ok, so I'm guilty there.

And B) It genuinely fascinates me that a 2005 NCAA survey indicated marijuana use by 25 percent of college golfers - and no one seems to care. Can you imagine if 25 percent of football or basketball players tested showed traces of pot!?

The only cheap trick is, Wolfrum fears me. Why else would he leave me off his "A quick recap of what they're saying" list?

What is Milan Kundera writing about these days? Probably
not a whole lot that is more interesting than the above blog topics.
