Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009Putz. THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. – Tiger Woods said he let his family down with transgressions he regrets “with all of my heart,” and that he will deal with his personal life behind closed doors.

Tiger Woods Injured In Auto Accident
Friday, November 27th, 2009Apparently he did not have a long, straight drive on this hole. What? I’m just sayin’. Tiger’s condition has been quoted as critical, serious, and stable. Believe it or not, that’s the usual fare from a hospital. Most people are listed in critical at first, then updates vary considering how the patient is progressing. Hot [...]
Obama Outdrives Bush On Golf Course
Monday, October 26th, 2009And by that, I mean he drives the cart more often than the former president. This is no difficult task, since President Obama hit the links in 2009 more than George W. Bush did in two years. Any takers on how many times the nightly news programs will mention this little info nugget? My guess [...]
Golfer Dies After Falling Out Of Cart
Wednesday, August 12th, 2009Good Lord, what a terrible story. I have actually played at this golf course with my Dad. It’s a terrific local club. You may remember the story of last year’s HHGR golf outing, where Badger and Vinnie spun my cart, flipping it over. Luckily Fish and I were okay, but you never know what can [...]
Nice Guys Finish Second
Monday, July 20th, 2009Damn. I spent my weekend off alternating between the Tour de France and the British Open. Both have terrific stories, but the Open – with 59-year old Tom Watson leading most of the tourney – won out in the end. Watson played brilliantly for 71 holes, then missed an 8-foot put to win the championship [...]
Golf: It Takes A Lot Of . . . Clubs
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009Well, I’m back! You didn’t even know I was gone, did you? Well, I spent Sunday and Monday at the Heritage Hills Golf Resort in fabulous sunny York, Pennsylvania – Home of the Most Pushable Amish in the State! Last year’s excursion was, um, interesting, as I remembered very little of it. (Lousy al-key-hol!) This [...]
Since I’m About To Start Today’s Round
Monday, June 8th, 2009I figured I could start the day off right by posting a few of my favorite golf beauties. Who says the LPGA is just a bunch of fat, ugly housefraus? These three ladies will show you the elements of the perfect swing. First, Natalie Gulbis (above) makes us aware of the importance of stretching before [...]
Fore! Score And One Day From Now . .
Saturday, June 6th, 2009Tomorrow begins our annual golf trip to Heritage Hills Golf Resort in York, Pennsylvania. My friends – Badger, Vinnie, and Fish – and I have been going the outing set up by Badger and Deathlok’s brother Sean for years. It consists of two rounds of golf with carts, and overnight stay at the course hotel, [...]
Who Knew Bad Manners Were Dangerous?
Thursday, February 19th, 2009Apparently in Massachusetts, they can almost get you killed. Remember that the next time you break wind and don’t say, “Excuse me.” I think blaming the dog is okay, though. FALMOUTH, Mass. – A man faces assault charges after allegedly striking another man with a golf club in an argument over manners. Police told the [...]
Dude Swings Like A Lady
Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008Or vice-versa. This is golfer “Lana Lawless,” the new Women’s Long-Drive champion. She crushed a drive 254 yards for the win on October 22nd, upsetting perennial favorite Phillis Meti. Oh yeah, “Lana” used to be a dude. Thought you’d like that. MESQUITE, Nev. – It has been a bizarre year in golf, highlighted by a [...]
