Drop the act Kobe. I'm not buying it.

First there was Jordan. He coined the tongue out of the mouth. He was Mr. Cool. A smooth pump of his fist when he nailed a game winning jumper was all he needed. There was no question of whether it was a genuine reaction. Jordan was all natural.

Florida is a Golfer’s haven and has been one of the top spots to hit the greens. Frankly, I think it’s a bore and the humidity doesn’t support my goal of looking hot on the links. My hair goes flat, make-up runs down my face and I suffer from what the locals refer to as Swamp Ass. You can figure it out. I drunkenly golfed many of Orlando’s renowned courses but none caught my affection more than that of Sugarloaf Mountain.

Kenny Perry stood on the right side of the first green at Augusta National Sunday afternoon, leaning on his putter, paying little attention to anything else. Not 15 feet from him, Angel Cabrera stood behind his ball, quickly jerking his putter back and forth. Both players' heads were pointed toward the ground for about 30 seconds until they looked up and caught the other's glance.

Did anyone else notice the way Tiger looked on Sunday as he finished his round ultimately winning at Bay Hill? Everything in his approach from his stare, the kneel down, and the famous uppercut-fist pump were all vintage Tiger. Often, athletes are weary of the surgically-repaired body parts and do not return to normal until a year after even the rehab. Yet, Tiger looked like for the past year he was sailing the Caribbean, fishing for some Mahi-Mahi, and eating money. He is a once in a lifetime athlete to witness and we should all send thank you letters to his surgeon for saving superman.

Well, he did again.  Another amazing piece to the puzzle that is Tiger Woods.  The questions I am asked most often is how does he do it?  Can he do it again?  And lastly, why can't anyone else do it.

Did everyone see the flasher at the Honda Classic?? Wow, now that one ups Tiger any day. Here is a poll: Should golfers be allowed to strip for reasons of protecting their clothes? Should the PGA supp

No, not just big-name PGA Tour golfers like Tiger Woods or Vijay Singh, but large men that announcers feel the need to point out. As Mark Calcavecchia was walking to his next shot at the Mercedes-Benz Championship, the broadcasters could not help commenting on his physique. This was not only one time either folks – it happened each and every time he was shown making a shot. They simply couldn’t resist and had to mention how heavy he is - cracking jokes about exercise and dietary choices. This phenomenon is not only reserved for Mr. Calcavecchia but haunts every golfer that is not built like Tiger Woods or Zach Johnson. John Daly and Craig “The Walrus” Stadler certainly get their share of ribbing as well.

           Golf finally has its villain: Rory be thy name.

          

           A sport that has long prided itself on being a game of gentleman who show the utmost respect for their competition seems to have had that tradition undermined by the exploits of South African golfer Rory Sabbatini.

The Target World Challenge is happening at the Sherwood Country Club this weekend. I had it on while I was doing some work and then it hit me…why are the sports journalists asking these guys the same odd question?

In what is probably the least shocking sports story of 2007, Tiger Woods was named player of the year on Monday for the 9th time in 11 years.

           Woods’ 2007 resume was impeccable.  He began the year by extending his tournament winning streak to a mind-boggling seven-in-a-row, and capped it off by claiming his 13th major and the inaugural Fed Ex Cup.
