ParticipantIf food prices went up, maybe I would waste less and eat less, which are both good ideas anyway.

Participant[quote=NicMM]I will go to watch the game this coming Saturday. First time for me to get close to the pros.[/quote]
If you’ve never seen it live, you are going to love it, very different from other sporting events in a number of ways. You get absurdly close as compared to most sporting events. It’s real quiet at times and you can hear them talk to each other, cuss, interact, the stuff TV edits. Unlike most sports, your seat dosn’t matter and constantly changes. You get a lot of exercise. You have to pick a strategy (follow one group, camp out at a hole, greens, tees or fairways). The drawback is that you actually miss 90% of the event cause you can only be in one place at one time. When I was a kid I always joined “Arnies Army” and I always wore a batting helmet after I got hit by an errant ball by Tom Watson from another hole. What a dork I was.
Bake, I’ve never refused to give advice, even when it’s not requested, but what were you referring to. BTW don’t give up on Rickie just cause he blew a lead as a rookie, rookies do that stuff. I think a golfer doesn’t overcome the presure until they win a few and get a little older. When Tiger was at the top of his game before all of his troubles, anyone grouped with him would fold under the pressure, except maybe Padraig. He’s so light hearted I think nothing bothers him, but the rest start playing not to lose.

ParticipantI shouldn’t be allowed to watch sports. I was already in somewhat of a fragile state going into the game. Then Jimmer Fredette and his magic mormom underwear ruined any hope that I would get through the day without crying, I might as well pop in my DVD of “The Blind Side,” get some cookie dough and just cry myself to sleep.
I realize women are burdened with hormonal cycles that they feel are unfair, but for the most part, they don’t actually hurt when a sports team loses. I don’t mean feel bad, or feel let down, I mean hurt, like your dog just died kinda hurt. And this happens to me more than monthly, probably twice a week. I was already burdened with the NFL, the NBA, Golf, College football, with side orders of basebal, hockey, and a few other sports that come in phases. Olympic years are especially hard. I’ve fended off soccer and college basketball for years, but SDSU got me sucked in, and I’ll probably never be the same and I didn’t have the emotional space available for another sport to break my heart repeatedly. For the love of pete, I’ve been a Cleveland Browns fan for almost 30 years, have I not suffered enough?
My apologies for getting everyone all excited, I told myself I wouldn’t drink the pain away. But it’s not going away on it’s own, so without further adieu, cheers!

ParticipantAfter SDSU’s brutal loss tonight my fear is that any sports related predictions I make tonight could result in a jinx.
But my pick is Rickie Yutaka Fowler. He finished ranked about #30 in the world at the end of his rookie season last year. He was the youngest player to be named rookie of the year since Tiger in 1996.
You can call me a homer because he was raised in Murrieta but as a high school freshman he set the course record at SCGA, a course that kicks my ass.
He was also the captain’s pick for the Ryder Cup team. Yes, he looks like the typical 951 kid. Yes, he looks like he should be on a dirtbike and not a golf course. But watch him and you will get the same feeling you had when you saw Tiger when he was new to the scene. Ice water in his veins, cocky yet polite and appears to not care that he doesn’t seem to fit the mold, seemingly happy to be breaking the mold. He’s one of a few young guns that appear poised to take over the helm.
My favorite televised golf memory was tiger winning at Torrey pines on one leg, watched every minute. To not pick Tiger or Lefty in this one is a bit silly, but since there is no money at stake, I’ll pick Rickie. He tied for 5th on this course in his first pro start and in 2008 as an amatuer he made the cut when Torrey was the site of the U.S. open, he was the youngest player in the field that year.
