Don't Do It Again, John

I am not a huge golf fan. Don't get me wrong............I'm for sure a fan. Just not a huge one. Having said that, I AM a HUGE fan of John Daly. I'm not for sure what the draw is, but my guess is that it's a couple of things. A) As Americans, we love stories of comebacks and underdogs becoming champions. He for sure fits that bill. B) I think if we are transparent, we all have to admit we see ourselves in John Daly to some degree. How? Well, how about the concept of having struggles?
Hmmmm, can you relate to that? I sure can.

So what happens lately is that John does really good for a round (or even for just a few holes) and I get all excited for him.......and me. Then the inevitable happens, and he implodes. "Tin Cup" type stuff. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. So I'm begging you John, stay within yourself this time! Make the cut, and just play Saturday and Sunday and let the chips fall........literally. :)


Speaking of sports, college football is just around the corner! It's just 22 days until my Tide takes the field for their first game under Coach Saban. It's a new day in Bama Nation!!!!!!! ROLL TIDE ROLL!!! Notice I didn't say anything about professional football. Except for golf, I am pretty much washing my hands of pro sports. Daly, the St. Louis Cardinals, the Spurs, and Tony Dungy are the only aspects of professional sports I care about anymore. Greed took over a long time ago, hence the hiring of thugs for players, referees gambling, steroids, etc. etc. They can have it. Give me college or high school sports ANY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Roll Tide
Go Bisons
Go HA Memphis Lions
Go HA Searcy Wildcats

Those are my 4 teams, good times or bad.

Who do you cheer on?
