was watching the GC show with Chamblee and Leonard

 

1. Chamblee says JT is the best iron player in the game : until TW hangs it up he is the best iron player in the game

 

2. They show a picture of JS walking and first thing you see is him pulling his cell phone out of his pocket and answering a text: maybe what he needs to do is turn the phone off and go do some work in the dirt

 

3. Justin Leonard on Phil M: "he knows everything" looks like there is no love lost between him and Phil, maybe a little sour grapes from JL

 

4. GC obsession with BDC is getting sickening,

based on wet I have to say I like this for Rory ... and maybe even Phil and Adam Scott

I'm going to call it and say Rory never wins the Masters.  It's like Phil or Snead with the US Open, or Greg Norman or Johnny Miller or Ernie at the Masters.  Sometimes you just want it too bad and it gets in your head.  Come to think of it, it's been quite awhile since Rory won a major, maybe his window has closed all together.  

 

I'm going with a young gun, someone under 30.  DJ might do it, but he really never seems to contend there.  

[dlygrisse]

Here are my picks in my pool, I have to pick one from each tier based on world rankings.  

 

JT

Koepka

Kokrak

Bubba

Wallace

Phil

 

Tier 2 is the one I am debating, I could pick Reed, Wolff, Scott, Fleetwood, Finau, Hideki

Louis, Ancer Fiztpatrick.  I dunno, Brooks finished strong last tournament.

That passes the looks test.  That’s what real “ pamenter cheese “ looks like.   I don’t know where it came from. But it’s been a Christmas tradition in my wife’s family for over 100 years.  I took over making ours when her mom passed.    But I only make it for Christmas.  

 

How does the Palmetto Cheese stack up?  I am not a puhmentuh cheese aficionado but don't mind that stuff on a ritz cracker.  I can't go to full-on sandwich lengths with it though.

I'm in a similar pool but have to make 8 picks. All set except for the top guy - Bryson, DJ, Rahm or Rory. Can make a case for any of those guys of course. Leaning Bryson after initially being on team Rahm.

 

Rest of the lineup is JT, Finau, Scott, Kuch, Poulter, Conners, Augenstein.

I don’t think picking the 5 favourites is going to prove profitable in a sweep.

my outsider would be Bezouidenhout.. you heard it here first

It’s quite important to use dukes mayonnaise in my opinion.  Pronounced Man-ayze ...lol. 

 

i prefer mine on a club cracker.  But ritz is good too.  Sandwich wise I like to lightly spread some on one side of bread and then add lettuce and mayo to the other side. But. Best of all is to make a grilled cheese sandwich out of the pimento cheese.  Start with it open faced to reallly melt the cheese then toast both sides dark.  Makes a crispy yet gooey centered treat.

When we were at Augusta we took a grilled chicken sandwich and removed the chicken and inserted it into a pimento cheese sandwich (may have gotten the tip on here), anyway we did it and it was great!

100 points gets added to your score for guys who miss the cut 

 

in the format I'm in you kinda have to stack the deck and have your one outside guy be like a matt wolff type ( lots of people in the pool love to pick with the heart with phil and tiger) but with no cap for cost of player or tier you gotta stack the deck 

 

it helps I bought in a few times , only sleeper I picked was Tyrell Hatten  (sorta like when willet won , trending euro under the radar)

Hatton's been playing great the last few months.  Good dark horse pick IMO.

Before they answer any questions, they should just say,

 

“Bryson, what can you say, love what he’s doing, really uses science, does it his way, hits it a mile. Ok, now, what would you like to ask me?”

[bladehunter]

They should ask Hideki about Bryson just for fun.  Maybe get a Japanese reporter to ask him.    The same way they ask everyone else about Hideki.

Maybe I'm an oddball but I just don't have any interest in sports interviews.  The standard questions and standard answers is totally inane.  Here's one that will make you laugh...

I took off work the next two days to watch. Any word on the chances they play tomorrow?

I’d say they will play for sure.  Supposed to be clear by 11 am ish I think.  But rain all night.

I don’t think so.  I heard it mentioned today during the interviews and although they didn’t say never , they said something like “ the idea of ball in hand is looked down on “.    lol.

i'd pay someone to say that ... wouldn't be much to them, but that's money right there ...

DJ’s interview yesterday was a masterclass in disengagement. He and Wolff are sure lucky that they have golfing ability. I couldn’t imagine that either would be up to much if it weren’t for that.

He would probably be a hard working blue collar dude. Nothing wrong with that. 
 

I sure wouldn’t be excited to talk to those media nerds

TW teeing of on 10?!

 

That ain’t the first shot you want to hit in the morning.

At least 11 is easy.

So, is Bryson wielding the 48" driver today, or not?
