Somebody's back....

And @dash is loving it.

It's funny, I just finished watching 'The Armstrong Lie' on Netflix, I can't wait until 'The Tiger Lie' is released.

Like Lance he's a crappy human being... but the best at his sport of all time.

You have to admit Tiger in the mix on Sunday at Augusta would be intriguing, no?

Oh for sure it would be - Looking forward to a couple of balls finding Rae's Creek on Sunday afternoon followed with a few f-bombs from Eldrick.

I’ve had to stop listening to sports radio lately because every second segment is about Tiger fucking Woods. Guy plays two competitive weekends of golf in 5 years and suddenly all the guys who were actually around winning shit are worthless lol.

If he finishes in the top ten at Augusta I’ll change my SH name to SensLover11 for the playoffs.

I don't think it's that the others are worthless shits. Sergio's win last year had huge buzz. Spieith and Rory push the dial. But nobody moves it like Tiger. I'll paraphrase a sports radio show I heard over the weekend that put it perfectly - "When Ricky or Jordan is in the hunt, it's a big golf story. When Tiger is in the hunt, it's a sports' story."

Those other guys are all great. Sergio has been my personal favorite for a long, long time. But Tiger is probably the best to ever play. So it's fun to watch a great golfer, but it's a whole other thing to watch a legend.

To that point, 10 posts in an hour on the golf thread is some kind of record. That doesn't happen when we talk about Adam Hadwin.

You know, I was thinking about this over the weekend, he's basically Donald Trump with a much better golf swing.

That's not fair. Tiger can put together a sentence and doesn't spend nearly as much time on the golf course as Donald Trump.

I’m kinda surprised this thread wasn’t named “Another round for Adam!”

Another good final round on Sunday (68) to finish T-12 for Adam.

me : "Hello ... can you hear me Oprah? ... i dont ask for much ...."

Sergio at 40:1 is good value right now.

 

[dash]

He wasn't listed, but Louis Oosthuizen at 60/1 is worth a few quid.

 

[puckhead]

If he finishes in the top ten at Augusta I’ll change my SH name to SensLover11 for the playoffs.

just to clarify.... the entire playoffs, the Leafs' playoffs, or the Sens' playoffs?

Lmao. That's a pretty good burn.
