Tiger Is Going To Destroy The Master's

Tiger looked great yesterday, he had it all going and intimidated the hell out of Graeme McDowell. Graeme had a couple chances to apply some pressure to Tiger, but hit terrible shots or missed the putt every time. This sets Tiger up for a big time Master’s run, he just won by 5 strokes, that’s the most on tour since Rory took the US Open by 8 strokes.

Now that he’s free to bang as many hookers as he wants and own it his head should be clear. All the dead weight and guys who took the “moral high ground” are gone. Tiger can wallow in shit / hookers and win tournaments!


It's official as of Monday night at 9 pm, Tiger is favored to win The Masters. I think he's going to take it. Rory doesn't know what he's in for. he's not playing some goofy South African ot Phil with some ridiculous joint pain. This is Tiger and he's angry, driven and coming hard.

After Thanksgiving Golf!

So if you haven't noticed I've really gotten away from golf here. We're doing one last hurrah for the year this Friday at Tashua Glen. I've never played there before, but the Knoll was booked up so we're giving it a shot. I'm hitting it up with The Kid, Digital and Pacman. Pacman is bringing a bottle of makers mark and Digital wants to do a beer a hole so it should get wild. Course looks fine in the pictures online, but we'll see what it looks like in November

Irene Hits CT

So I hope no one had any plans to play the Country Club of Fairfield for a little bit because Hurricane Irene has basically shut it down for the rest of the year. From the pictures I've seen there's not way it can be playable again this year. That's what happens when you build a golf course on a freaking beach. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that anyone reading this can't afford to play there anyway.

Sunday At Yankee Stadium

This post has nothing to do with golf but it's a baller story none the less so I'm throwing it up here.

I'm hanging out in CT last weekend. I went there to drop some stuff off at my sisters place. I'm waking up on Sunday morning when I get a call from the ConMan. Our boy got 2nd row tickets for the yankee game from some money manager and I'm getting the nod. It's 11:30 at this point and the game starts at 1. I'm recovering from a monster night and hop in the shower immediately and sprint to the train. I of course have to stop at my apt in NYC to drop off my bag because The Stadium won't let guys with bags in. F'n terrorists!!! So I pund 4 beers on the 80 minute train ride and I'm feeling pretty primed for the game.

I get to the stadium around 1:30 and have to hit some lobby to pick up the tickets. Of course the tickets are under a different name then what I was told. The Armenian is as stupid as they come.. wrong, wrong wrong. I get them from the woman at the desk who barely speaks english. what I'm unaware of at the time is that she scans the ticket as she gives it to me then directs me to go outside and around. Once you leave you can't get back in!!!

I go to the gate I was directed to and they say the ticket has been used. I chill for a minute thinking maybe a buddy printed me the wrong ticket. I call them and nope. So i put my head down and bulldoze the guy at the gate. I tell him he's wrong I just got it, that I'm calling the owner who pays over 6 figures for these tickets. He lets me in.

Game was sick, pics of the seats below. Kim Jones I love you. You may be able to hear me proposing to her while she interviewed CC.





























Marry me Kim Jones!!!

Tashua on July 4th Weekend!

We got a tee time at 12:50 on Saturday the 2nd. Absolutely perfect day for golf. Was sunny, but a little cloudy and in the mid 80's. No pictures. Check out my last post for some

I played with Cheese Steak, Digital and Pac-man. Pac-man and I shared a cart and killed it. we had to scramble a bit the get there on time, even though it was after 12. Stuff happens when you rock hard the night before. Thankfully for the other chumps I bought a 24 pack of balls so they were able to scam mine. The Nike SFT's are underrated and inexpensive. http://www.dickssportinggoods.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4002621&cid=CSE:GoogleProductSearch

We rolled in there with a couple coolers packed. We had to skip the 20 oz cocktail this time because we were all pretty well stocked. Digital and cheese steak brought there own coolers and I packed my bag with brews and freezer packs so I rocked the entire time.

The course was in great shape. I don't know if you remember me saying something about the conditions earlier in the year. The front 9 wasn't good earlier, but now it's as nice as the back 9. I should have taken more pics. Fail on my part.

Drive was on point. We were playing best ball, Digital and I vs the others. Digital played like crap and the handicaps were off so it was difficult for me to take a hole. After 12 hold Digital and I were down 5. We pressed and went up 2 holes going into the 18th. Cheese Steak hogpressed and somehow they took us down.

The Allentown Disaster

So I'm somewhat recovered from the trip so I'm going to give this a shot. I'll probably have to reread and do some edits tomorrow, but let's get the show on the road.

It started off as any regular Saturday. I ran out of work around 4:30 to my buddies and waited for Digital to pick us up. Surprise! Getting out on NYC on Friday around 5 is an absolute nightmare!!!!
And the nightmare begins. So we get straight downpours this evenin
g and Digital gets stuck on 95 around Stamford for an hour. During this time Little Armenia and I are drinking Coronas and chilling. Digital rolls in around 6 to pick us up stressed as hell from stop and go traffic all the way. We load our stuff up and hit the road. We head out and get stuck in terrible traffic trying to get through the Holland Tunnel. Nothing funny about this, just sat there for an hour. Digital grabbed some street meat while we wer
e sitting there.

We end up getting into Allentown around 1o, unpack out stuff and hit the Sands Casino in Leigh Valley. Casino was good, everyone tied it on and lost a little cash. Craps is a bitch, but I love her. We get escorted out of the casino by security an
d head back to Cheese Steaks jaunted mansion. Digital goes limp hard (picture in Go Limp).

We hit Center Valley Club on Saturday afternoon. http://www.centervalleyclubgolf.com/








Here's some cheesedick we saw on the way to the course in a Mazda Miata rocking to popped collars and hair plugs.












Little Armenia A.K.A. The Armenian Meatstick goes limp on the 14th tee box, but somehow still shoots a 77. Freaking amazing!

















The Meatstick hits out of the water on 15.

We actually had an amazing round. I shot my best score ever by 12 strokes and also had about 12 cocktails on the course. We completely dominated it.

We had later tee times so we were able to play for $40. The course was a little beat up a day of playing, but was still nice. We saved $40 each so it was well worth the wait. This is one of my favorite courses that I play. The front 9 is very different then the back 9 and it's not too challenging. If you can drive decently you can dominate the course. The greens were hilly, but not too fast so we could really take advantage of the place. Best deal is to buy the cooler and fill it there. I think it was $19 or something. The cart lady is a bit old, like 60 or so. I know she needs to earn, but come on.

I would recommend this course to anyone. It's a nice course and they leave you along and let you get after it out there.

That's about all I can remember to be honest. I'll have to think and write more later. Jeez I'm terrible at this

We were supposed to play on Sunday but got too banged up to make our 11 o'clock tee time. What a mess!!!!

PA Trip

We're almost out of here! I'm being scooped up by Digital at 4 and we'll start a drive down to Allentown. I think the Albanian Meatstick is rolling with us as well so we got 3 big dudes jammed into a 2011 A4. Should be nice and tight. Oh and I can't forgte the cooler that will be in the back seat to beat on.

We're playing Center Valley Club on Saturday. The place is probably the nicest course I've ever played. www.centervalleyclubgolf.com


I'll let you know all the antics of the weekend. I think we're getting a party bus for tonight to make sure no one missed their tee time because they're stuck in jail.

OUT!!!

The wheel is still a hole


Played the Wheel early in the year and it showed. Was probably way too cold to play, but we still got out there and gave it a whirl. Played like shit, but it was the first round of the year.

The front 9 are absolutely terrible. I can grow better grass on my roof. The back 9 were pretty legit though. Just play the back 9 until they fix it up.
