Our own Armchair Cornerback (who hasn’t posted in about ten years) is at the Masters right now. I am not. Fuck him.

Officially golf season is upon us. Yeah, I know that the PGA Tour schedule started last month. Big fucking deal. Memo to PGA: When football is on, nobody gives a shit about golf. Go ahead and CC that to hockey and basketball while you’re at it. Come to think of [...]

I’ve never been on to talk about the “good old days.” It wasn’t better back then, walking up hill in the snow and all that. God knows I wish I had titanium drivers and perimeter weighted irons and one-piece balls and views of Kristy McNichol’s shaved snatch at the touch of a button back when [...]

What a great time to be in Arizona. Of course, there is a professional tackle football game being played there tomorrow. And all weekend is the golf tournament they play there, whatever the fuck they call it these days.
This tournament is a Super Bowl weekend tradition, with the rowdiest hole in golf, the par-3 16th. [...]

Maria Sharapova is doing well at the Australian Open.

We have no interest in Women’s tennis at Making it Rain.

So we don’t really have anything to say about her domintion on the court this week.

Because we have no interest in Women’s Tennis here.

Nick Faldo made a joke on a golf broadcast last week that Tiger Woods is so dominant on tour that the other players want to beat him up. Kelly Tilghman responded to that obvious joke by Faldo that they wanted to take him in an alley and lynch him. Another obvious joke. Nobody noticed for [...]

Beer Babe

Holy Phoebe Cates, Batman!

Suddenly I have an urge to take my next golf vacation in Jacksonville. I also have an urge to hear The Cars’ Moving in Stereo.

Wanna feel better about your game?
Charles Barkley has the world’s ugliest fucking golf swing. Ever.

I have to avert my eyes.
You know whose swing I’d rather look at?

The big show is upon us. The inaugural FedEx Cup. The NASCAR rip-off that nobody understands. The one where if you win, you get a big check that you can’t cash for 20 years. The one where you earn a bunch of points all year then lose them then start over. The one where they [...]

Blast From The Past

She had the kind of curves that would make a man leave his wife and the swing that would make him leave the golf course.
Her name was Jeanne Carmen.

She was a pin-up model who soon found herself work as a trick shot artist. She tells it thusly,

Nashville native and Vanderbilt graduate Brandt Snedeker won his first PGA tournament today by two strokes at the Wyndham Championship. Was it an all-star field? No, most of the big names were resting up between the PGA Championship and the Fed Ex playoffs. Was it even televised on a network with a [...]

Tiger Woods is skipping the first tournament of the FedEx Cup. He says he’s too tired from winning the last two tournaments (Firestone and PGA) in a row. There was a caller on a local sports call-in show the other day who was all bent out of shape, because as the “face of the sport” [...]

Woody Who?

Woody Austin, you have always been the lovable journeyman PGA dude. The guy with the really ugly shirts with eerie green and orange beach scenes on them. The guy who beats himself in the head with a putter. The guy sponsored by Tabasco who beats himself in the head with his putter. The guy who [...]
