I just watched PTI on ESPN and Bob Ryan of the Boston Globe made a comment that I suspect will generate some controversy. He said that if Watson won the Open it would be the absolute worst thing possible to happen to golf. Why? Because if one of golf's biggest events is won by a 60-year old man it could no longer be defended as a 'sport'. ....that if an old man can beat men in their prime, it's something other than a sport.

Ridiculous, I say.

[GRRRRR]

pish tosh...golf is the great equalizer...when you hit good shots consistently, regardless of age you win.

FLOORED, I tell you...that Tiger didn’t make the cut!!

That knee surgery must have really messed up his head, swing etc.

Boob Ryan is an idiot and needs to be called out on this. I wonder if he said the same thing about Norman after being the 3rd round leader. I’m willing to bet not, especially since Greg’s still close to Bubba and of course wouldn’t warrant a pot shot.....

Now of course since Tom’s a big fan of the troops, has made several trips to Iraq and leans conservative, Bob thinks it’s OK to bash him. See it’s real simple. If Tom Watson is carrying his 6th Claret Jug come Sunday evening, it is one of the greatest acheivements in sport over the last 1/2 century.

Don’t read into anything negative against Norman. Sharkie is one of my all time favorites. I was just illustrating a point and I assume Ryan didn’t write the same thing last year.
