Boring?  BORING?  Mike & Mike, Mad Dog Radio, etc etc how could these guys even use the word?  Did these sportscasters even watch the tournament, or did they tune in for the last 3 holes and expec

It's not the weather, though, as you may expect ... But rather, Phil Mickelson is just starting his practice round. ;)

I'd like to make a suggestion to the Augusta people: Quickly write into your tournament by-laws a contingency tradition; if the son of a former winner wins the tournament, his dad gets to prese

I see Kaymer is doing his traditional best to miss the cut. +3 putting on 11. No better than par there as he runs it eight feet by.

We're having a discussion at the office (while watching the live feed) about the bird noises we're hearing. One of the guys thought they sounded fake and a bit too apparent. We took to Google it and read that it might be a recording. An avid bird watcher says the sounds we hear are from birds that are not indigenous to the area.

Has anybody else heard this? I found it funny.

Are those turtles I keep seeing on the edge of the ponds?

Saw a couple on 11 when John Huh was there and now at 15 while John Huh is there.  Perhaps they are following John Huh?

They're staying away from Craig "The Walrus" Stadler, that's for sure.

One of the announcers on the 15/16 feed said that MAJ "ceases to amaze me."

I noticed the bird noises too. It seems ridiculously loud and apparent everywhere on the course.

Probably fake.

Yesterday on "On The Range" they were talking about a story of MAJ walking by players on the practice range with 2 glasses, a bottle of wine and a cigar hanging out of his mouth. Truly, the most interesting man in the world.

I don't know ... there was a situation several years ago where another TV station got "busted" for doing exactly that.  (My favorite stand up comedian, Brian Regan, does a funny bit on the topic but I can't find it online anywhere)

Of all places, I would think Augusta would make sure that they used the correct bird sounds, so I suspect that they are real.  Maybe they just have mics in the trees??

EDIT:  Found it ...

You can now watch Amen Corner, holes 15 and 16, and featured group 1 (McDowell, Fowler, Walker) all online. I've got them all streaming.
