Wild weather thats where the men and boys get sepperated! Mikleson +9 fucking hell!
 
If there's nae wind and nae rain, it's nae golf, eh? :D

I was too busy today to watch the coverage this morning but I think I'll be able to move my laptop into the family room tomorrow to double dip for a few hours. I love watching the so-called best in the world struggle to play the game under really challenging conditions. Hogan, Watson, Nicklaus, Miller, and even Norman all managed to play memorable golf when all hell was breaking around them on the links land. Good stuff.

Norman played a peach but links golf is a different ball game alltoghether.

It is indeed - and a great golfer can make the necessary adjustments. I don't think we'll ever see Mickelson included in that category unless he dramatically changes something - like perhaps a brain transplant.

Lol could we make it a personality one too? I think a brit might win it this year. Were used to the windy wet conditions.
 
It's soothing becasue England always acts like a good little Subbie and LOOSES! It's nice to watch a game where there are no surprises:),

Of course that was that one time.... But we gotta letcha win sometime or it wouldn't be as fun seeing the barmy army crying into their luke warm beer next time we flog them.

God I love cricket. *Mexican Wave*

Na dude, I know you're from God's country, My Grandad was from Aberdeen and I went and spat on the heart in Edinburgh myself for him when I was over there last.

It's just that..... you're all packed in so close together, I forget myself sometimes. LOl.

Edinburgh is mental for a night out!

Thread makes me thing of desert rose. Hope her trip is going well.

I do believe miracles happen in golf. Hogan winning after his accident. Jack winning his last Masters. Crenshaw winning the Masters right after burying his mentor. It would be exciting just to see Rocco on Sunday with a chance to win.

Let's not go there. My French heritage was taken out of my heart and stomped into a bloody pulp by that weasel Van der Velde.
 
Golf... It will be exciting.. Its good to see it so open without tiger as the nailed on favourite! Rocco winning would be nice..

As for cricket.. Bring on Saturday when I am at headingley. Hope the weather holds up though.
