SportsFilter: The Tuesday Huddle:

A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

Or how about Zach Johnson? Sure, he just won the Open. But he probably should have retired before the tournament began, don't you think? He's the same age as Tiger Woods: 39. His last major came in 2007 at the Masters, more than a year before Woods won his last major at the 2008 US Open. Woods won five tournaments as recently as 2013. Johnson had only won five tournaments over the previous five years.

I guess you should enjoy your Claret Jug, Johnson. But know that you don't deserve it. You should have quit the sport a week ago. That's indisputable sports media logic.

Yeah. Because when he retires he'll have more time for things like...playing golf.
