The excitement builds: Phil vs. Tiger

[Dub]

Its Tiger vs. the PGA, not Tiger vs. Phil.

True that.

At least that is how it was....time will tell if it's how it will be. Phil was a trunk slammer this week....interesting to see if simply had his eye on the prize....I wish him well. It's hard not to like some of the young guns for the Masters, though. Olgivy is strong medicine. Watney or Rory could stand tall, also. It's damp and windy down here....the weather is in constant flux....it was sunny and still yesterday.....off and on forecast throughout the week. The tee times will be a big factor, I believe.

I can beat Sergio any day of the week. After the first hole, I will have his head swimming with my "trash talk"---"Hey, Sergio, IF I beat you, it will be on The Golf Channel, all major networks, ESPN, etc. How will you respond to that?" "Sergio---YOU are NO Seve or Jose Maria, both of whom won Majors. How many Majors have YOU won?"

I have no reason to believe this will be the battle on Sunday afternoon.
Please let me know when this has ever happened.

Why on earth do you like him?

I think Tim Herron is a more charismatic figure. Don't believe me? Watch his Playing Tips from the Pros.

Anyone watch the press conference of Phil?? Pretty funny stuff. I love how the media keeps asking him questions that only have one answer and Tiger is that answer. For example, one guy asked "who is the best clutch putter of all time?" Phil is like "I know where you are going with this and you probably want me to say Tiger or Jack...but blah blah blah, Padraig and Jim Furyk are clutch...(obviously not exact quote)".....Padaraig and Jim LOL

Many members of the media "ride the band wagon". Instead of trying to analyze a situation for themselves, they write about the stars and when Zach Johnson or Trevor Immelman wins a Masters (as they did), they end up looking foolish that they never gave guys like that a ghost of a chance. Some of them looked like they were lost after Tiger had his operation and could not play until the last few weeks. For these particular writers or broadcasters, it was a case of "No Tiger; no story---let us cover baseball or basketball instead."
