A potpourri of items from across the blogsphere – and a test for everyone!
I know the controversy over that Tiger Woods / Sergio Garcia spat on Saturday continues to swirl, but there’s no doubt in my mind and in others that Tiger did indeed take an improper drop on Sunday after his ball found the water at 14. They say Woods’s playing partner Case Wittenberg agreed with Tiger’s selection of his drop position, but what do you expect a Tour rookie to say – uh, no Tiger, I think you need to make your third shot somewhere adjacent to the white tees because your ball crossed the lateral hazard almost immediately? Of course not. But if you look at the hole design and the shot from above, Tiger did indeed take an improper drop and should have been DQ’d. He may indeed be the best golfer in the world, but he also gets more breaks than anyone else due to his stature and he’s not afraid to take advantage of that. If you’re asking am I questioning his integrity, the answer is yes.
OK, all you linguists out there – here’s a fun grammar test for you to try. It’s harder than I thought! (Hat tip: Ace Of Spades HQ)
I know we’ve first gotta get to the bottom of that IRS scandal enveloping the Obama administration like a fuzzy warm blanket, but to me the biggest impact will be on Obamacare – not just because it shows just how dangerous the government has shown itself to be with the power it wields, but also with the fact that none other than the IRS and its former head of tax-exempt policy and procedure is running the office to enforce it. If they can’t keep one’s tax investigations quiet, imagine what they’ll do with your health records!
I’m not much of a hockey fan, but that amazing Boston Bruins comeback against the Toronto Maple Leafs the other night must have been something to see.
I’m not in agreement with anything David Axelrod says very often, but in this case he’s right – the government is too damned big for anyone to effectively administer, so it’s time someone takes a chainsaw to it and cut it back down to a manageable size.
OK Sox fans, can we all agree that the John Lackey signing was an incredibly bad idea? Sure, the guy is coming off surgery, but he was lousy before and he’s really throwing nothing more than glorified batting practice now. If the Sox had anyone in the minors who was anywhere close to a sure-fire major league pitcher he’d be up by now and Lackey would be gone. What a waste of time and money.
