'Photoshop Phil Mickelson in disbelief': Fark issued this order in response to Mickelson and his caddy's Ford Championship agony (via Attaboy).
The sheer unrelenting doodoocacaness of the pics did wear me down. Some of those are pretty funny. I never cease to be amazed at how much time and effort some people put into those things.

SportsFilter received some funny hate mail about this link:
You people are fucking morons for depicting Phil Michleson in the way you did. I deleted the feed to MyYahoo. Eat shit and die a long painful death some day.Apparently, Mr. I Hope You Die isn't familiar with Fark.Com.

I'm sure Phil Mickelson would be more angry that you can't spell his name, pal.

So Mr I Hope You Die is familiar enough with the internet to use RSS feeds on Yahoo but thinks Spofi was slamming Phil? I don't think anything on Spofi is nasty to Phil, it is all on Fark. Hmmm.

If you use the new My Yahoo and ask for sports-related content to add to your yahoo, the 14th item in the list of sports recommendations is SportsFilter.

14th? Woo hoo! Seriously though I thought we were Phil fans here. I was massively chuffed when he finally managed to win his first Major.

If you use the new My Yahoo and ask for sports-related content to add to your yahoo, the 14th item in the list of sports recommendations is SportsFilter. That explains the three million new members a day we've been averaging over the past couple months. At least, that's what it's seemed like.

I don't know how good the "new yahoo" is yet. I've been using My Yahoo for almost 5 years now and there were teasers on the login screen that they have been rolling out a new improved version but I was not able to upgrade. They suggested they'd let me know when I would be able to swtich over. Now the teasers are gone and I don't see how I can switch unless their offer ended up in my junk mail folder. But hey, 14th best sports source. waa hey!

Don't know if I'd want to be too much higher up the list.

Wow, some of those are pretty awful.
