Strange story. When will the first lawsuit be filed?

Yes Melnyk is horrible. For that matter ABC whole production stinks, aside from Mike Tirico.

I have been to a baseball game in years and don't follow it now, but this would peak my interest if I lived in Chicago.

Most golfers are known for be as dull. Just watch Davis Love or Vijay Singh talk. 'Fairway' Feherty must dred interacting with these tools. But he is one funny guy. His line about the spectators in Dallas is a classic. They come "to admire a vast array of silicone spectator mounds...most mammals in the area are doing exactly the same thing."

I 2nd the Maradona goal. Too bad I didn't see the goal yesterday. Especially in America it's going to be tough to see the replay. Anyone know where I can see it online?

I want to see the voting to see how many 1sts, 2nds, & 3rds Ben Wallace received. He carried the Pistons & was able to overcome having Stackhouse on his team.

Milton has been blowing off steam for years, "even asking the public-address announcer to play an expletive-soaked rap when he came to the plate, then glowering at the press box when the tune was pulled after one at-bat."

Milton, If you want to be the next Albert "Joey" Belle, you need to hit a few homers also.

Yes, I'll clarify. I didn't mean they were anti-foreigners. I just thought it would be a strange situation if the Masters winner couldn't speak English and was a former caddie. You just have to remember that 90% of the foreign golfers come from privleged backgrounds (compared to 99% of American pros), so there is not a huge class difference. Even if you look at the foreign Masters champions most came from at least comfortable family situations (Olazabal, Vijay, Player, Woosnam). Langer would be an exception.

Bitter Punk, Cabrera a dark horse. He is one shot back of Love and had a good Masters last year. He is a world class player, but doesn't get American press because he can't speak English. It would be something though. An Argentinian coming from poverty being associated with those stuffed shirts. The only thing more uncomfortable would be Rosie O'Donnell winning the green jacket.

I like Dimarco to win. It's just a hunch because of his impressive play last year in his first Masters. Aside from the big 4 (Woods, Duval, Mick, Els), everyone seems to be on the Olazabal and Daly bandwagons. This signals to me that these players will be disappointing, even though a disappointing finish for Jose may be tenth place.

His acceptance speech will be memorable. "Rickey says this...Rickey thinks this"

"tiger woods receives millions of dollars for just showing up at an event" To clarify, Tiger Woods does not receive any money for showing up at a PGA Tour event and neither does anyone else. This is done in tournaments sanctioned by other tours. It looks like, to no suprise, msacheson is the only one who supports my original thread.

Tieguy, I wish the link hadn't expired, but a few weeks ago their was a story about Jesper. In it they said Jesper's wife showed up on the driving range of a recent tournament and suprised him in a pink bunny outfit. That's all you need to know about her.

Right on aacheson. Why can't they just print the truth. This guy is scum. Maybe he was nice little boy in grade school. People change. These latcher-ons did not force him to do anything. He thought he could do anything and not face any repurcusions. The scary part is there are 100 D. Russell's in the NFL and no one seems to care or want to do anything about it. They can spin it into those snazzy "united way" commercials where Sam Adams is performing CPR, and hide the fact that there are many scary NFL players. Read "Pro and Cons: The Criminals who play in the NFL" to see who these people really are

Najeh Davenport is arrested for "burglary",
Fatboy Nate Newton beats Davenport by a puff. 2 months and almost 400 pounds of weed. Now that is impressive even for a man of Nate's stature.
