| I did not say dirty name. I said b*stard. And too edify the readers - the US Open is the ONLY major to do an 18 hole playoff. The Masters and PGA do sudden death and the British Open does 4 extra holes. |

WCC - No apology necessary, you can't be expected to follow every string or every post, it's impossible. Happily Ward did come through with the "bacon and lettuce and tomato" bit and did it so subtly that at first it didn't click, but when it did I must have been laughing for 5 minutes straight.
Having just been in Amsterdam I am rooting for Holland. I left to come back to the states on the day the Euro Cup began, but before I left I did learn that the proper way to root the Dutch on is by saying "Hup Holland Hup!" There was a follow up line which was too much Dutch for me to make any sense of, but I'm told that it is loosely translated to "Don't let the lion (symbol of Dutch pride) be left out there in only his undershirt." As I said, loosely translated, and I will be sticking with "Hup Holland Hup!"
As for me, at that moment I was a marine biologist!
P.S. If you've read Mario Puzo's "The Godfather" in addition to seeing the movies, you would not make light of the name Rocco. |

Sam, sounds like our paths just missed in Amsterdam, and the orange jersey I picked up for my five-year-old in the airport is enough to make them my favorite in the tourney. Hup Holland Hup!
As for Rocco--who just fell tantalizingly short--I'll always remember him partnered with "Moose," helping Mr. Smails here find his checkbook. |

| Hahaha! Great line on Rocco. I wonder if he is still in the employ of Al Czervik. |

Too bad for Rocco. There's always next year. Or.. maybe not.. he's kinda old already.
Hmmm... last time I saw a mouth like that... it had a hook in it.
(now we're into re-runs boys.) |
