    What happened to Tiger and Schuey?

    As recently as 5 years ago Tiger Woods was so dominant in PGA Golf that other players admitted that they played to finish second.

    Jerks on TV. Whatsup?

    I watch a lot of TV. Until recently I watched little fictional drama; mostly nonfiction and some British comedy. Now I suddenly discover that lead characters in many popular shows are insufferable jerks. NCIS: The DiNozzo character is a bully and a terrible jerk. If he worked for me it...

    stralls and bikes

    All baseball season I have been watching the new thing called a pitch tracker and comparing where pitches really crossed the plate (or not) to where the umpire calls them. Last night I kept mental notes on pitches that were not swung at in the Rangers/Rays game. One case: First pitch was...
