Congrats to Graeme McDowell for winning the U.S. Open, on a very tough Pebble Beach course. I enjoy seeing the pros struggle. Sundays round was good for about 4 bowls of Bullseye Flake.

I'm with you Mick.

It does my heart good to see someone who deserves a victory achieve one.

I varied my smokes throughout the day.
Were you as bad as I was and watch 7 & 17 on the the computer and live coverage on the toob?

Hey Guys,

I was watching an Auzzie Rules Football match a few days ago, and got to wondering what your favorite "real" sports were. Those sports that don't have a big following in the states.
Here are links to Wikipedia that explain those I love to watch when I get the chance.

They are in my order of favorite to least.

But, I love them all.
#1) Footy
#2) Hurling (Irish Traditional game)
#3 "It takes leather balls to play Rugby"

The only "real" sport that I can watch on TV is motocross racing, proven years ago and ranked as the most physically demanding sport on the planet. All the other sports have continuous breaks, time outs, built in. The 45 minute motos are brutal, and there are no mental breaks anywhere, lose concentration, and you get paralyzed or lose your life.
But now we have Ironman Triathlons, and that has to be worse.

I'm too old and the wrong shape for Motocross, (round is a shape).

I used to do some off road motorcycle riding in my youth.

Now it's just this fat boy riding, my Fat Boy.

It has a better ride than my car.

:)
