November 11 Podcast - Need Names to Grade

[iacas]

In this week's Podcast, I'd like to have a discussion about the years some people have had. It will take up a lot of time (there's not much else to discuss), and so I want a list of names for people you'd like to see "graded."

As in "Jason Gore: A, Vijay Singh: C-" and so on. We'll follow up each of our grades with a sentence or two about why... but for now, just list people you'd like to see graded. Ideally, of course, they'd be people whose name made the news a bit this year. Don't give me "Wayne Grady" or something.

This may become a weekly feature (when the season starts up again, that is) in a shorter version if it goes well.

If you have any other topics, too, list them here. We also need a listener question... ask us what we think about some controversial topic, some "year-in-review" point, etc. List your name and where you're from if you do that, please.

BTW, for those who are new: http://thesandtrap.com/archives/podcasts/ .

Fixed. I mis-spelled "podcasts" as "podcats". Mmmm, podcats...

PM sent re: the text file.

Annika Sorenstam gets an A- because she never completed the "Soren-slam".

Phil Mickelson gets an A- because even though he won another major he still didn't move up in the standings.

David Duval gets a C+ for trying this year although his game never really improved.

Bart Bryant gets an A for fending off Tiger Woods and winning wire-to-wire last week as well as several others in the past few months (like...who IS Bart Bryant?)

Although Tiger Woods gets a certain A for being given top honors again this year.

I'm not looking for your grades. Just the names... we'll grade 'em on the Podcast.

So: Annika Phil Duval Bryant Woods

Maybe you could give grades for how you think the new Nationwide Tour grads will do on the Tour next year?
Kip Henley & Blonde Bimbo - they need grades, they played on a couple tours this year :)
