Looks to be a great tourney... with Tiger, Phil and Bubba paired for the first two days.

Ima be out of town today and tomorrow but hopefully I'll get to catch some of it later tonight... should be on late due to the west coast venue.

Have you seen #16? 670 yard par 5... that's crazy even for the open...

I will be watching every moment I get a chance to. I am out in SF about 4 or 5 times a year and have had the great opportunity to play both the Lakes and Ocean courses at Olympic.

The Lakes course is built for Tiger to win, so I wouldn't be surprised if he carries this tourney.

Side note that doesn't mean anything: I am a 2 handicap and I didn't shoot better than an 87 on either course from the men's tees. This tournament will be a great one.

Yeah these pros are mostly all +2 to +10... I might could break 90 if I played great, I'm playing at a 9 handicap now.

Props to Dpantherman for telling me about the USOpen app... Watching the marquee group now on my phone... 4G is so awesome.

And props to you for just now telling me about the USOpen app as well. Downloading it now.

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
