I have to admit I have just LOVED my iPhone since I received it last Christmas. In my opinion there is nothing that comes close to it today. Apple just knows HOW to create beautifully effectives interfaces.
Up until recently I have not done too much with the App Store but since *discovering" it I have found a world of coolness - of course, not *everything* is cool but there sure are some gems (just ask my wife about "muddled"!)
One of these is Sports Tap (dubbed the ultimate mobile sports portal). It is an amazingly simple app that allows you to quickly "tap ...

When you talk about the Pro Tour, the big question in the back of the room is always what Tiger will emerge when he returns from his ACL repair. Will it be the guy who's dominated the tour for years or maybe someone different?
Tiger will certainly know how to play his game. If he's committed - which he always has been - he'll come back as strong or stronger than he ever was. Maybe it won't last for a lot of years - let's not forget all the speculation about how many surgeries to the same knee can someone have before ...
This really has nothing to do with golf but just loved the article. And seeing that today is Halloween and there are a horde of trick or treaters on the street below my office I thought I would post it.
It has received 368 "Diggs" so someone is digging it too.
Check it out - it is pretty dead-on for the crappiest Halloween candy.
Here is the intro to the article:
"Every Halloween the youngsters' thoughts turn to candy. And minor acts of vandalism. But mostly candy.
But there was always a downside to trick or treating, and not just the juvenile diabetes that kicked in a few ...
These guys look like the last foursome I played with! See what golf can do to you.
Getting pretty chilly here in the Northeast (Massachusetts) and it is sort of a weird feeling when Halloween comes because my days are VERY limited on the golf course this year (and they have predicted a very long winter - yessh)
Actually just received another Alpha Hybrid and have not even had a chance to hit it yet ;-(
Anyways, enjoy this all Hallows Eve and (please) leave some candy for the kids!
I just came across this ad the other day. Obviously it is a few years old. It seemed so bizarre it kinda caught my attention. I mean parachutes on golf balls? It actually sounds stupid and cool at the same time.
Of course, there are all sorts of golf ball training aids that restrict the flight of balls today from plastic to foam to those crappy little whiffle golf balls. I shouldn't talk, I use them too - but they sure don't last that long.
I tried to do some research on Google on these "Parachute Golf Balls" and really came up with not much so if you find anything ...
This is a small rant about 'fist pumping' on the golf course, specifically during pro tournaments. The Ryder Cup didn't trigger this. We see it more and more every week during whatever PGA tournament happens to be on. I'll predict in advance that those of you over 50 will be in complete agreement with me on this and those of you under 40 will think I'm loony. I'm not sure where the 40-50 crowd will be.
I just can't get used to the fist pumping thing. That was never a part in any of the golf that I saw or participated in when I grew up. ...
I know, the season isn't over yet. We still have the rest of 'silly season', the Ryder Cup and of course the finals of the FedEx Cup. Excuse me as I take a moment to yawn. The majors are over and the top pros have had since January to show us their game for the year. Not much changes from here in, except dividing up the last handouts. There's drama for the guys who are trying to avoid going back to Q School, but that's another story.
I actually like the Ryder Cup, but where's the pre game hype. I think they're playing next week, but to ...
We could be in for something different for this years British Open at Royal Birkdale which begins tomorrow. The weather forecast calls for light rain and winds from 10-20 mph for the next couple of days. In recent years, Open weather has been uncharacteristically sunny and mild. If you've been to a UK links course, then you know how much wind and rain can change them. Royal Birkdale under sunny and calm conditions and Royal Birkdale under rain and stiff wind are two entirely different venues. For players that aren't used to it, it can play as much with your head as with your golf ball. Players in the field who grew up playing in these conditions will have a ...
Tiger Woods had his ACL repaired this past Tuesday in Park City, Utah. It is now known that he originally tore it in 2007 while jogging after the British Open. So what's in store for him and how long will it take?I had my own ACL repaired in 1994 and have some experience with skiers ACL surgeries when I was involved in ski area risk management. ACL repair is common for skiers and that's why some of the best doctors in the world for this surgery are in Vail, Colorado and Park City, Utah. From what I know, here's what Tiger will go through. Immediately after surgery, Tiger's left leg ...
