  1. watson is alone in the lead, and just hit a perfect drive on 18.
  2. what? he missed his fifth cut in his entire professional career? he MUST not be that good. of course, jack missed 88, but i'm sure a lot of those were when he was getting old. In majors only, Jack missed 33 cuts, most of them (22) in the '90s and '00s....so you are right. Why so defensive? 59 year old Watson playing like he is 30.......putting for eagles!!!! Gotta love it!!! not defensive at all... i just figure that the cuts-made stat is a pretty telling statistic for a pro golfer. AAW was trying to use the fifth missed cut of Tiger's career to talk a little smack. i figured if Tiger's fifth missed cut was cause for a little more "Jack's the greatest smack talk", i'd at least bring up the 88 that Jack missed. I will also bring up the fact that by the 90's Jack was playing almost exclusively in majors, so although he missed many cuts in his later years, there must have been several when he was younger as well.

  4. what's funny is that 9 times out of 10, even when he's way back at the end of the 1st round, even if he's way back going to the weekend, by the end of the tournament he still seems a way to find himself in the top 5.
  5. That is funny. Politically incorrect, but funny. While you are there watch "Hitler finds out Michael Jackson has died". yeah, i thought that was funny, but a little too profane to put a link on here. there are dozens of these parodies on there, and most of them are pretty funny. i also like the aTm football rant.
  6. the American league wins again! they haven't lost in 14 years!
  7. Hitler reacts to Sarah Palin's resignation:
  8. Can you talk about those on a public forum? i think you're thinking of a crampon...
  9. haha. i think i'm 5 or 6 for 38... at least i'm not making it too obvious!
  10. i thought a continent was something you put on your french fries...
  11. if he's only giving 3.5 more years, i don't see it happening. he'll probably average `12-15 wins a year over that period. as he gets older, his slow starts will probably last longer. he'll also be more prone to injury.
  12. i say he ends the year with 320. he's closing in on the downside of his career, but i could see him averaging 20-25 HR over the next five years if he plays that long. i say he'll either end up +/- 20 from 415 HR's
  13. the first player to score 30 points for him in a game will be a phenom
  14. i doubly jinxed him! he's given up three straight singles and lost his scoreless inning streak as well! man, i knew better ;D
  15. and of course i did... he gave up a hit in his very next batter faced
  16. i'm a family friend and yes there are a lot of unanswered questions well, i hope they get all the resolution that i'm sure they're seeking right now. i'm sure finding him, as difficult as it has to be, will go a long way.
  17. Tim Lincecum is no-hitting the Padres through six tonight. he's also extended his scoreless inning streak to a whopping 29 innings and change! man, i hope i didn't jinx him!!!
  18. leaves a lot unanswered, and how did it take so long to find him???
  19. can you imagine trying to tag one? that would be tough!
  20. which raises the question... why is bron bron confiscating tapes to make sure nobody sees it?
  21. again, i'm not trying to hate on him. i just think Dickie is overrating him. he was a great player, but seeing as all of SETX basketball is so weak with the exception of the great and mighty Ozen, he inflated his numbers his whole career against weak, physically inferior competition. he was coveted much more for his size than his skill. sure, he could play, but just because he had some skill while a couple of other big guys from the houston area tripped over their own feet everytime they walked does not make him a phenom. also, lumping him into the same categorie as lebron james ruins your credibility on this one a bit, dickie, as does your obvious (and completely understandable) predjudice when it comes to kendrick. lebron was a phenom. he was drafted 26 spots ahead of kendrick, and was an instant all-star, averaging 21 pts/6 rebs/ 5 assists as a 19-year-old in his first full season. now THAT's a phenom. perkins went for 2.2 pts and 1.4 rebs in only 10 games his rookie season. while i like what perkins does for the celtics, and would love to have him play for my favorite team, he's never been a phenom. his career year last year (in his 6th season as a pro) of 8.5 pts, 8.1 rebounds, and 2.0 blocks a game is far from phenomenal.
  22. because he was enormous. it wasn't because he was an incredible basketball player. he wouldn't have been so much as a blip on that radar had he been 6'6''. i'm not saying he's not talented, and i'm not saying his numbers weren't impressive. what i am saying is that if i was 6-10 and a jr/sr in high school, was probably 5 inches taller and 50 lbs heavier than 9 out of 10 centers that i played against, it would be difficult NOT to average 25 pts and 16 rebounds a game. Again, i'm not trying to disrespect perk at all, he was a great HS player, and he's worked himself into being a serviceable pro, but phenom does not at all come to mind. to me phenom has much more to do with talent than with being a spectacularly large physical specimen.
