What's For Dinner Dear?

The train wreck they call John Daly showed up with red marks on his cheeks at a golf tournament today. John Daly told authorities his wife tried to stab him with a steak knife.

A Black Eye

The Columbia Broadcasting Sleaze Network is refusing to air a Maxfli commercial(shown below) of John Daly because he may be drinking beer while driving a golf cart. Oh my! This is the network that has more sleaze than Maxfli has balls.

"It did not meet the standards of the CBS network," spokeswoman LeslieAnn Wade said Tuesday, quoted in The Los Angeles Times. "Any implied or direct reference to excessive consumption of alcohol would not meet network guidelines."

Wade said that the CBS guidelines do not allow alcoholic beverages to appear in ads when an activity involves a level of alertness, the paper reported.

Give us all a break CBS and just shut up!

Lefty Looking For Answers

Phil Mickelson is changing coaches, saying Monday he will start working with Butch Harmon. This is in light of his driver issues that cost him a chance to win the U.S. Open last year at Winged Foot.

Mickelson had worked most of his career with Rick Smith, whom he credited for helping him win 30 times on the PGA Tour and three majors.

Here's some free advice Lefty. Put the driver in the bag sometimes. Or does the driver make you feel like a big "boy"?

No Boo Boo

Does the PGA tour have a new hero? Maybe and his name is Boo Weekley. He won the Verizon Heritage on Monday and has captured the interest of the media and public.

Weekley is not your ordinary golf hero. To say that he is somewhat unusual would be an understatement. A couple of things will highlight this colorful character:

His real name is Thomas Brent Weekley, but he was given the nickname as a child because he liked Yogi Bear's sidekick, Boo-Boo.

He attended Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College where he studied turf grass science.

When Boo first played the PGA Tour in 2002, he wore camouflage pants and tennis shoes during tournaments. He has since toned down to rain pants and golf spikes (he only found traditional shoes that didn't hurt his feet within the past three years).

Oh, and there is a story about an orangutan which is for another post.

"Eggs"citing Finish!

The golfer with the last name Woods and the wooden personality did not win the Masters. Relatively unknown thirty-one year old Zach Johnson pulled away from Woods and the rest of the pack with three birdies in a crucial four-hole stretch along the back nine of Augusta National, closing with a 69 for a two-shot victory and only the second of his career.

Easter Parade

Garcia Full Of Spit

Sergio Garcia confirmed his unusual hole-in-one at the 13th hole Saturday at the CA Championship at Doral. Apparently unhappy with his bogey, he chose to show his disdain by spitting in the cup after he had retrieved his ball. Very classy Sergio.

Can You Say Idiot?

Remember the Mickelson meltdown at the U.S. Open last year? Well, this is what "Lefty" has to say about that.

He told ESPN, "I'd hit driver again. No question. Put me on the 18th hole at Winged Foot, needing par to win, and I'm doing exactly what I tried to do last June: carve a baby slice and chase it down the fairway to set up an iron to the green, two-putt for my first U.S. Open and my third straight major."
