Bits and Pieces

-Yani Tseng is not Golf Magazine's Player of the Year.  And, yes, she was being considered along with Rory McIlroy and Keegan Bradley (and others, I presume).  The Waggle Room has more including some fan comments that tear into the magazine for it's backroom, bass ackwards decision.  Does mention that the magazine's readers got it right in a Facebook poll: 95.7% of votes cast for Tseng.  Maybe Rory will step up and declare publically that that is an outrage.  (Don't hold your breath.)

-LaRussa done, goes out a winner.  Pretty nice way to step down with that improbable World Series win.  Congrats to the man for a pretty darn good career.  Expect he'll play more golf now that he has more time...

-Stephanie Wei on Michael Jordan's stepping down as assistant to Fred Couples at the President's Cup:

Oh noes! — former NBA superstar, freeloader, lover of money games and playing mind games with Sean O’Hair Michael Jordan had to resign from team mascot assistant captain of the U.S. Presidents Cup. Because of that pesky NBA lockout, MJ, a majority owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, might have to vote or attend important meetings.

She's funny...

-Another good day for golf.  Get to it.
