Seriously though, I don't understand why someone in charge doesn't at least give this guy a warning.  I can't imagine anyone appreciates it, and I find it to be highly annoying when watching the television coverage.

I just heard that and the boomshakalaka

Ha, I never heard the Tiger Woods one.

I didn't hear the Mashed Potatoes guy though.

I agree with you all. I just don't get it, why would you want to scream out "get in da hole" or "you da man"???

It's become some sort of game now where they try to time their shouts just after the ball is struck. I find it  very uncool. Last year at the colonial some jerk-wagon standing next to be did that. again----very uncool.

It was a fad in early 90s too. When other people were shouting "you da man", there was a guy at Doral who'd yell, "you're the person" during Sundays round. Yeah, that really happened.

Do I get a cool badge to put in my signature for winning the bracket challenge?

[bplewis24]

I vote you earn special recognition in the monthly awards thread.

[JayMc]

I addressed it myself

[bplewis24]

Very nice!  Great penmanship.

I think it's funny no one in our group picked Mahan to win...

Jay Mc, better yet you get a ---------"You Da Man" shout out and the badge

You think that's because of his Ryder Cup history?  He really put it together this week.

As much as I hate to say it out loud, I think you're right, he was on fire this week, but his Ryder cup past will be with him a while. BUT this is america, where if he keeps winning, equals money, which shrinks any memory of past history.

I think he credits his new putter. I did have him go all the way to the semis against Tiger but losing. He still has a lot of short game yips, IMO. I don't remember how many chips or pitches he's misjudged that left him a long putt for par at the WGC. His putting made the difference this week.
