Hey, PGA: are you laying down for ratings?

August 2nd, 2010 · 2 Comments · Ground Possum

The PGA has definitely been feeling the pressure of trying to market itself in the wake of Tiger’s mediocrity.  They got the Mickelson “win for fidelity” at the Masters, but since then, there have been few high points, at least ratings-wise.  Graeme McDowell winning the US Open when Tiger, Mick and Els were all there [...]

Miami = Scrub City

July 8th, 2010 · 5 Comments · Ground Possum

So, when the heat dumps Michael Beasley’s 5 mil contract, they will have enough money for one good role player, and then the rest of the team is gonna have to be rookies and minimum contract dudes to even fill a bench.  Sure, the Heat will have three monsters on the floor to start, but [...]

Amateur Hour

July 7th, 2010 · 5 Comments · Ground Possum

Apparently, LeBron is planning an hour “special” on ESPN to announce his free agency plans.  This is Busch League, Bron.  It’s what high schoolers do who announce where they will play college ball.  I’d say that you are better than this, but apparently, you are not.
