"Something's wrong with you if you think: 'I am the face of the franchise.' You can't think that -- never. You let people say that for you." -- Angels OF Torii Hunter, who homered twice after being named as the only representative of the Angels to the A.L. All Star teamDaily blurb
Tiger Woods is still obviously off his “A” game. He barely made the cut this week, and failed to shoot under par for any of the four rounds. For the season, he ranks 34th in birdies per round (3.76). Only once in the last five years did he rank less than first in that category, and that year (2008) he ranked second. He’s not even the priciest golfer in GuruGolf anymore; Lee Westwood currently has that spot.
Congrats to pork barrel savings for posting the top best ball score (-45) in GuruGolf this weekend. Worst ball honors were earned by Old Bogies with a +49.
As a national holiday in the U.S., you’d think there would be more afternoon games on today’s baseball slate. But there’s only one game in the early afternoon (Balt at Det), and two others in the late afternoon. Four teams aren’t even scheduled to play today. That just doesn’t seem right.
