The Players: A Lesson in Karma

Mother's Day is a lovely day for golf...on TV.  I could not get out on the course myself on Sunday as I was cooking brunch for my lovely wife.  Instead, I tuned into television coverage of The Players Championship.  About ten minutes before Paul Goydos teed off, they aired an interview betwixt the defeated once-leader and our favorite 'little fella' of sports broadcasting: Bob Costas.  I could immediately sense a great deal of over-confidence from Goydos.  His interview demeanor belied his beleif that he had this thing wrapped up. 

Anyway, his matter-of-fact smart-ass remarks about the course and his game-plan planted a seed of doom, as we witnessed him 1.) Blow his lead and very-possible win in regulation by choking on a donkey dong on 18. So we go to playoff hole one (17th, very short) and he 2.) Double-Bogies. 

 

Paul Goydos, a real jackass, sealed his own fate by being a primmadonna with Costas before his round.

 

Oh yeah, nice collar-less, lime-green jersey.  Real classy.

 

Have a nice week.

Mike Leach is Weird

Okay, so a friend of mine manages Dirty Martins.  For those unfamiliar, its an old-school burger joint on campus.  Well, Mack Brown came in today and was shooting the breeze with my buddy, Jesse.

Jesse is a Tech alumni, so he asked Mack if he knew Mike Leach, and if so, was he 'weird.'

"He's... different...very eccentric."  

Apparently he also followed the Grateful Dead for a few years and took a liking to LSD.  Maybe he had a wicked flash-back in Fort Worth, because I still can't figure out how in the hell you only put up three points.

Anyway, a little random, yet diary post-worthy.

A Spot of Humor for the Week's End

One of the things I like about Matt Drudge (Drudge Report.com) is that he finds the best photos to match his 'headlines'.

The hypertext below takes us to a bicture of outgoing British PM Tony Blair, who won a '97 landlide election as the leader of the Labour Party.

Please note his jacked up grill.  One of his bottom choppers is all but decayed, and of the top choppers is at a 45 degree angle to his gum line.

I'm not one to judge, but, you would think that in ten years of serving the Crown and running a rich-ass country, one would be able , uh, fix that $#!%.

Texas Fight!
