Ahhh... the beauty of Augusta National...
Unfortunately the Rain has followed the PGA to Georgia and the dogwoods and azaleas weren't that beautiful today.
With play suspended, Chris DiMarco holds the lead at -4 after 14 holes.

I'm not interested in golf. Why can't we have more comments about Tenderloins on this blog?
Would love to hear more about tenderloins myself. I think that it's a sandwich. Picture?
Also, never did hear back from the guy talking about Steve's split.
Bob T.
Yeah, Steve makes great splits - all that hot fudge, strawberry, banana...yum!
Although I'd love to hear more about tenderloins (my vote is for the ones from the Rich Valley Lions Club up in Miami County), here's a little golf link to remind us of the down side of the Masters..

I'm just sayin' I'm NOT over it...:)
while Steve is off in the kitchen crafting one of his tasty bananna splits, I've decided to craft a limerick in his honor.
there once was a coach named Knight
who wouldn't give in without a fight
then Davis came along
and sang a different song
so now their future is not very bright.
Anna... did you really think I would follow that link? There is no downside to the Masters other than that psycho Martha Burk and her band of merry maids. Please tell me you are not a follower. Bob, Darren, Woody and I might need to have an intervention.
Hmmm...should I follow an educated, calm, forward-thinking person named Martha or a full-grown screaming crackpot who calls himself "Hootie?" Lemme see...
On second thought, I think you may actually have to get me *on* drugs for that intervention, Steve. :)
Seriously, though - is it their tactics or their goals (or both) that you object to? Just wondering which I should speak to.
Tactics... purely tactics.
I had to comment... just get your blood pressure up ;-)
I was going to post earlier, but work got crazy. All I have to say is...
AAARGH! You got me! I didn't fall for a single April Fool's joke this year, and here you had me thinking that you were actually going to argue that ladies can't play golf or something (Babe Didrickson notwithstanding).
In fact, I told Bob about your "merry maids" comment, and his eyes got really big - partially because he didn't peg you to say it, and partly because he knew he would have to deal with me pacing the floor and grumbling incoherently for a few hours, yet again.
I do tend to agree with you about the tactics, though. I don't care about whether it was tasteful.("Tasteful" is another way of saying that they should be "lady-like," to which I primly say, "f*ck that sh*t.")
No, I worry about effectiveness. I think it would have been much more effective to do something weird and funny, to get people's attention. For instance, get some attrative young college gals to start a cheering "protest" outside Augusta, with uniforms and all. The first golf cheerleaders!
How about getting some really talented female golfers to dress up like June Cleaver and serve lemonade outside the facility? The swizzlesticks could be imprinted with the score of their personal best games. Better yet, get some female executives to serve the lemonade, and list on the napkins all the OTHER country clubs where they transact business.
My personal fave - get a little girl to interview Hootie for Weekly Reader or something, and have her ask if she could be a member at Augusta someday. If he says no, the girl could burst into tears. Have her parents standing by too, to call Hootie a monster. That would play REALLY well on SportsCenter...:)
Yikes, I'm bitter and crafty today!!
