Looks like I'm killing Jim too.  I could be doing a lot better, if I'd read the rules::) first.  For about 10 weeks, I didn't realize you could switch players through the rounds.  Duh. 

Good week to use Jim Furyk for the first time :P

Heh.  Yeah, what'd he do, miss 3 foot putts on both the 16th and 17th, to fall into a tie and ultimately lose in sudden death, after Harrington's 70 foot birdie putt?  Damn.

And how 'bout Birdie Kim holing it out of the bunker on the 18th to win the Women's U.S. Open?  That was pretty crazy.  Bummer Michelle Wie tanked on Sunday, as I enjoy watching her.  A lot.  Anika shot (way) over par for the first time in 4 years too...

Oh, sorry, were you guys talking about Fantasy Golf?  Eh.  **Yawn**

Yeah, Furyk choked but it didn't matter too much to my point total overall.  Damn Irishman ruining everything.

I'll actaully be golfing for the first time and probably last time this summer on July 20.  My workplace is having a department bonding session that day.  We do one every quarter.  The summer field trip has been to a golf course for the last few years.  We also go bowling, go curling at the St Paul Curling Club and have been to Twins games.  I'll have to head out to a practice range a few times before I go.

Playing the 15th and -1 for the day, sitting at 4 over for the Tourney, and currently one stroke above the cut...  Yikes!  Gonna be close...

Looks like Lefty's got his groove on though.

Tiger made the cut.  Barely.  By one stroke.  But the PGA higher ups and the TV execs are breathing a big sigh of relief.  Now, the question is how much of the 12 stroke difference can he make up...

Wonder if Fatty Phil will choke again, or manage to stay the course and win his second major.  I guess it would be nice to see him get another, just to get the monkey off his back entirely.

Anybody else watching the PGA Championship?

I'm following it.  Phil's not supposed to be in the running for this thing, so it'd be nice if he stuck it to them.  But Vijay's sitting in third right now.  That's scary.

Phil is your winner.  Do you guys know if this was on TV?  I couldn't find the damn channel.

I didn't see it, but it darn well better have been on.  They apparently could have finished it last night, but didn't because of a conflict with the broadcast schedule.  It was played today specifically so it could be on TV. 

Glad Phil won.  All the chatter will be a little hollow now.  Always nice to see a lefty win :P

Sign up is back in place for this year's golf.  It's kind of cool to play and doesn't require too much thought.  I signed up again and if anyone is interested, we could form a league for ***** and giggles.  If not, no big, I'm in anyway.

Anyone else?
