Something Else to Showcase
by Ryan Ballengee | Managing Editor - DC Sports Day | Wednesday, March 19, 2008
Tiger Woods won his fifth Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill on Sunday with a 24 footer that curled about 8 feet into the cup on the 72nd hole of the tournament. The win marked Woods' fifth straight PGA Tour victory, 7th consecutive global win, and furthers talk about the potential to win 12 events in a row. In other words, all of the buzz surrounding Tiger's current round of dominance continued and was heightened. If you want to read about what Woods accomplished, there are about 20 columns being written today by columnists around the country and world that will go into more depth. I'd like to talk about something different that was showcased on Sunday. That is the reality of slow play on the PGA Tour.
A Letter Of Thanks To #4
by Bob Lazzari | Staff Columnist - NY Sports Day | Friday, March 14, 2008
Yep, that inevitable moment finally came last week; you told the world you were walking away from professional football. I guess many of us knew your retirement day would eventually arrive, but the reality of you not suiting up next season has yet to sink in. Without you, Brett, the game of football becomes just a little bit different--and NOT in a better way. All I can do now is send along my gratitude for 17 wonderful years, Mr. Favre; hear me out for just a bit. Thanks for becoming synonymous with that ONE franchise over the years, Brett; oh yeah, you threw five passes in a Falcons uniform when you were a struggling rookie, but once you arrived in Green Bay, you immersed yourself in the Packer tradition, won a Super Bowl, and went NOWHERE else. Your devotion to one team happily reminds me of another athlete named Brett--George of the Royals--another guy who truly understood the meaning of the term "loyalty." «FULL STORY»
Seriously, This is Ridiculous
by Ryan Ballengee | Managing Editor - DC Sports Day | Tuesday, February 26, 2008
Just after Stewart Cink defeated Justin Leonard to advance to the final of the WGC Accenture Match Play, reality set in for the 22nd ranked player in the world. The reality was that he was going to be facing the best player in the universe the next day. Lucky him, he was going to face Tiger Woods for 36 holes to determine the champion of the event. Even as one of the best putters on the PGA Tour, Cink knew he was going to be in for the challenge of his life. Cink had played Woods once prior in a very familiar match play type setting. In another WGC event - the Bridgestone Invitational - Cink took Woods through four extra holes before Tiger ultimately prevailed. I am sure that memories of that encounter came through the mind of Cink as he tried to sleep on Saturday night. What I am surer of, though, is that Woods remembered that encounter the second after he shook the hand of Henrik Stenson - his semifinal opponent.
