Don't Know Jack

Stay tuned? I doubt we have one reader interested. (I doubt we have one reader.) The answer: Soccer. In Chicago. You think I make this shit up? What other explanation is necessary? I suspect this will not make the PTI radar screen. (BTW, when else could it be?)

What's the point about Pat Tillman? It has been generally known for months that he was killed by friendly fire. What is new? The details? There are certainly not pretty, but did anyone expect they were? The guy was a hero in the exact same way that each of the members of the armed services is: they put themselves at risk to pay the ultimate price to make us safer. God rest his soul and all the souls of the brave servicemen and women who have died in the service of our country and its ideals.

It does put sports in perspective. Listening Spree?

Q-school is absolutely heart wrenching, but so is any open tryout for pro sports. Yes, KG is a jerk. Every pro golfer knows his score on any given hole. It is his BUSINESS to know. Blame the caddy. The caddy screwed up right until the time you signed the card. I contrast this with the extra club in Ian Woosnan's (?) bag a few years ago. THAT was the caddy's fault.

Does Tim O'Neal's wife understand that it is her JOB to help relieve the pressure from her husband, not increase it. It is definitely their next 12 months, not just his. But she makes it more likely that he will fail next time around.
