It’s been a busy week for me. So busy, in fact, that I haven’t even been able to test out some new clubs I just got. But, it’s not too busy to get the links to you this week.
I’m a Thief
I noticed that majorchampionships.com started doing something similar to this column. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery I guess. Plus, I can steal cool links like this from them! [link]
Lucky Looper
I’m pretty jealous of this kid’s job. I think that being a caddie is a close second to being a professional golfer as my dream job. [link]
Amen!
Golf definitely needs better live commentary. And while I’m at it, I think CNNSI.com has a great golf section. [link]
Phony Phil?
I love this quote, “he pastes on that goofy grin when he is walking the fairways, and the galleries seem to genuinely like him.” [link]
ALS Bracelets
Ever since the LiveStrong bracelets, I’ve been buying every color imaginable. I think these bands are a great way to promote a cause and raise money at the same time. If anyone is buying some of these, let me know. I’ll join in. [link]
All Talk?
Ernie Els is talking about how players are forgeting the first rule of the game, keep it in play. His view is refreshing and I’m anxious to see if he’ll play that way. [link]
Playlist
I decided this week to replace the quote with a playlist. I know I listen to my iPod when hitting golfballs, and these are some songs I’ve enjoyed as of late.
Ryan Adams -- 'To Be Young'
Jason Mraz -- 'Sleeping to Dream'
The White Stripes -- 'Blue Orchid'
Coldplay -- 'Speed of Sound'
Sum 41 -- 'Pieces'
Jack Johnson -- 'Crying Shame'
The Game -- 'Hate it or Love it'
John Legend -- 'I Can Change'
