Its SUPERBOWL week!!!!!!

I am a football guy, and the Super Bowl does NOT match up to what this week means. This is the best sports week in the year……..by a looooooonnnnnnngggg shot.

This week has taken on a new light, of course. For those of you that follow me a bit, you will know that I have stayed away from the whole “Tiger stuff” sans covering his press conference, and I will continue that.

I will certainly comment on his play, that you can be sure, but I am so sick of the rest of it I can scream.

So this year is probably the most intriguing Masters since 1997 and it is a result of the same man ha ha. I am so excited to see how everything plays out.

I have picked Robert Allenby in my prediction column, but we all know what I chose him. My other choices are Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson, and Lee Westwood. No matter who wins I will be in the same place I have been for the last 4 years or so.

Right in front of my TV, my buddies Tony, Matt, Brandon, wife Julie, and anyone else that wants to join. We will have our feet up on a cooler full of Corona with enough lime to flavor the entire water supply for the state of Washington.

See, this tradition started a while back…………the “Tiger chip in Masters” to be honest. I was living in Vegas and was headed to my new buddy Tony’s place to watch the tournament. Tony had just been bit by the golf bug, full on, and it was our first time watching a golf tournament together.

I picked up a 12 pack and headed his way. He, Jeanne, and I sat there the entire day and watched in amazement as Tiger battled Chris Dimarco. It was the start of a “tradition unlike any other” and it has stuck.

I have flown to Seattle while I was living in Vegas for this tradition. We have been at his place, my place, other friend’s places. It is all the same though. We sit, uninterrupted through the whole thing, sipping Corona and chatting up both their, and our games.

So this is my Super Bowl. Not because of the sport or because of the commercials, but because of the tradition, both on screen and off.

This is going to be a great week………….enjoy.
