    At the dinner table my daughter said golf is so boring and quiet. Then I talked to her about crowd roars and specifically Masters crowd roars.

    When your watching a player live and you hear the background roar and the player walks away from his shot, composes himself (or dies inside) and CBS, of course, makes you magnificently wait. That's one of my favorite things in sports.

    Which means Pat Narduzzi can’t say anything stupid. This week is just getting better.

    You gotta hand it to Nick Watney.

    Recuperated from that compound fracture of the femur in only three weeks. :)

    That was never going to be possible, as long as the demanded increase in testing happened. You were never measuring along the same metric. I suppose they could have made the metric, "14 days of declining percentage of positive tests" or something like that. But they stuck with "decrease in documented cases." Ain't gonna happen.

    It's like climbing an icy hill where the elevation gets steeper and then hearing someone complain, "You don't qualify. You didn't improve your pace!"

    At my second COVID haircut last week, there were two stylists, and I was the only customer.

    Took a far greater risk walking to the grocery store 20 minutes later.

    His teammate boxed out others in the area so only Russ could grab the virus.

    Which basically means the season is postponed indefinitely. SEC did the same thing.
