Masters 2007: Screw you guys, I'm sticking with Sergio Garcia to win

Sure, a lot of people are going to come after me for picking Sergio Garcia to win the 2007 Masters. And I’ll be the first to admit, it’s not looking good for the young Spaniard.

He’s 10 shots over par and his game just fell apart when he needed it the most. And, yeah, I admit the road to his victory will be extremely difficult for a multitude of reasons, one being that he didn’t actually make the cut.

But I’m no surrender monkey. I stick by my guns no matter how depleted of bullets they are. I will not back down, regardless of how foolish I look. I’m like Vice-President Dick Cheney that way (”Saddam was in cahoots with al-Qaeda, you believe me, dontcha Rush?").

At this point, however, if I have to have a second pick after Sergio, I’d have to say Vijay Singh looks mighty dangerous. He’s worn the Green Jacket before and won’t be intimidated. And a Vijay win would totally irritate the spoiled, overfed press section.

Plus, he’ll actually be playing over the weekend. That’s going to be really tough for Garcia to overcome.

Way to stick by your pick. I think Sergio is gaining on them. Whatever he was doing today, he had a better day than those sad sacks at Augusta.

Kind of tough to win when you miss the cut. Should have picked Tiger.

Well, Zach won, but I'm still rooting for Sergio! A major can't be too far away!
