Yup. Hoping we get doused with some rain today. Don't know if you're already in town, but the pollen has been God-awful.

Phil's my guy.

Ben Curtis #2.

Is Duvall playing? If so...I'm a David Duvall fan.

Payne Stewart. Oh, wait. Never mind.

Who names their kid Tiger? I guess if Michael Jackson can name his kids Blanket and Prince Michael any thing is possible.

Yes. First time in years. I used to like Duvall, now I can't stand him. He acted like a whiny little ***** after losing to Tiger several years ago.

I always like DiMarco, but he's not in.

Didn't name his kid Tiger; his first name is Eldrick. Tiger is the nickname of a Vietnamese soldier who was a friend of Earl Woods, and Earl passed the nickname on to his son.

Hey Rebs, are you going this weekend? I might have to watch to see if I can see you. I am sure you would stand out with your anti-Obama signs.

His real name is Eldrick. I don't blame him. I'd go by Tiger as well.

I haven't decided if I'm going or not, but when, in that pea-sized brain of yours, makes you think I'd walk onto the National with a political poster, of any kind? Do you try at being stupid? Or does it come natural?

It was a joke. Did you not see the emoticon?

I would like to hear how the crowd treats him. I always felt like he got away with murder with ettiquette. I can remember a few years back he scuffed his putter across a green after he missed a putt. Put a 4 ft mark on the green. That week I saw 2 different scuff marks at two courses I play. Everything that guy did was copied.

They're treating him very well. As I said before, once he hit the fairways, all that other **** goes out the window. People come here to watch Tiger play, not be a faithful husband. Oddly enough, Tiger is acting very benevolent to the patrons. He's even stopping to sign autographs on the path from the driving green to the club house. He used to just keep walking. I think he understands the onus is on him to get his status back to where it once was.

I think he will succeed, and I certainly hope he does.
I hope Elin will stay with him, and I would guess the longer she stays around the better.
My feelings may be biased by the fact that I knew him (not well) when he was a little kid hanging out at the military golf course, and I know how hard he worked and how tough his dad trained him to be.
This is a hard adjustment for the SEAL/green beret mindset to make, and Tiger definitely has that mindset. I do hope that he gets it done.

I wonder how the Augusta Chairman's comments yesterday are going over with the fans.

You out there, or just hearing reports?
