[dinojen]

Being there are a few sport fanatics on this board.. figured we better get ready for Golf.. Nascar Picks.. and just in case Vick gets picked by a team...:tonguewag: Heard this morning two thirds of the NFL teams already said thanks but no thanks... so we will see.

Nascar is Watkins Glen this weekend... LOVE IT...

Second round of the WGC Golf tourney has started already this morning.. here's the leaderboard..

http://www.thegolfchannel.com/pga-tour/2009-wgc-bridgestone-invitational/scores/

Padrig Harrington is on a roll at 7 under through 2... Tiger is at 2 under through 3 and Lefty is Even and not scheduled to tee off till later.

Will check back.. Hope everyone has a great weekend..:beer:

So nice to see the thread. Was really glad to see Phil playing yesterday, I hope he gets the rust out and has a better round today. Some good golf yesterday, I may have to watch todays round tonight as I have to be out and about.

At work so going to have to watch tonite too... but Tiger is at 3 under through 10 and Lefty tees off about 1 EST.. He's at even so.. that's not too bad.. Padrig is still at 7 under...

Going to be great golf... leading up to next weeks PGA tourney..:thumbsup:

[dinojen]

Wow.. Lefty isn't doing so bad.. he's at 2 under through 8. Tiger is in the clubhouse at 2 under and Padrig is still leading with a round of 7 under today...

Tomorrow should be good...:thumbsup:

[TobyTiger]

Greetings dino!

A great weekend for you also...

...and TIGER!

[MercedesV]

I'm going to sit down and watch the golf now, glad Phil seemed to be playing okay. Padraig is certainly off to a good start. I'm so glad they replay the round in the evening.

Running to the store now so I can get my stuff done before it comes on tv today.... news says there are thunderstorms.. could change the way the course plays if they get some good rain...

See ya back here in a bit:thumbsup:

[dinojen]

Yikes Lefty is going the wrong direction... he's at plus one.. Tiger is 3 under and Padrig is HOT... wow.. 8 under...

Just got back.. think this hotel must be on dish because golf came on early I think.. usually doesn't come on till noon here on the west coast.. oh well...

I have my channel changer set in case something exciting happens that I can switch over if and when the race starts.. Some good golf... :beer:

I am rooting for Jerry Kelly and hope he catches a break..

[dinojen]

Can we say BIRDIE and CO-LEADER...:tonguewag: I hope Padrig and Tiger stay close.. makes it more exciting.. don't think there is anyone else close enough and with enough holes left to play to catch either of them

[dinojen]

Tiger has the lead now by one stroke... look out.. when he gets on these kind of rolls.. you see some awesome golf.. he's in his "Pops Mode":thumbsup:

Horrible hole for Padrig.. he's in the water now... not sure how many strokes he's going to get for that... OUCH... has to do a drop... :scared: OMG.. he just hit his sixth shot.. on a Par 5... ewwwwwwww and he has an ugly ugly putt.. not even a putt.. has to chip it on to the green... too bad...:sad:

Yep I heard... hubby is awake.. and we are ordering Chinese for delivery...lol. He said no prob.. he's working nights tomorrow so he's good to go to watch...told him to tape it for me...

WOW.. how this turned around... 18th hole and it's all Tiger's for the 7th time:wub:

[dinojen]

Another fantastic shot by Tiger:tonguewag: especially on the 18th..

But.. on a side note I feel horrible for Padrig.. he played so well and that one hole just crucified him.. totally rattled him for the rest of the course.

Well, good for hubby!! Mine will be home during the day tomorrow too (though he should be sleeping at race time) and I'll be at work. No point in taping it here though since I won't have time to watch it at night or the interest after I check online to see who wins.


:thumbsup: 18th hole and our Tiger did it again!!! :thumbsup:

Checking for you now... hubby said Noon but not sure which time zone that is... it's Noon EST...just checked the Nascar website.




Hope he plays that good next week for the PGA Championship...:thumbsup: He was awesome today... I did feel bad for Padrig though.. that 16th hole just creamed him...:sad: Took the air right out of his lungs... very sad.. he played so well during the tourney..
