Masters, Bynum, etc.

• The Masters move on to Round 2.....Tiger shot a respectable 70 (-2) yesterday but couldn't make any putts....actually a good sign for his fans to be honest b/c putters can come and go, but he hit the ball well.....Chad Campbell started with a blistering -9 through 15 holes but stumbled to settle on a -7 65...Still a helluva round....Should be a fun Friday
• Andrew Bynum returns with a bang.... 16 points, 7 boards in 21 minutes....it was a spotty line b/c he looked bad at times (comes with rust) but I was generally impressed...and Pau Gasol seemed to excel along side him with 27 and 19...but he wasn't the issue....Lamar Odom? 7 points, 9 boards....he is the key to all of this....keep an eye peeled
• NBA Draft early defections: The Syracuse trio all leaves.... Jonny Flynn is a consensus mid-first rounder so I understand that one...but Eric Devendorf and Paul Harris? Eassyyyy fellas.... Jrue Holiday of UCLA also leaves....his upside is at the PG spot...but he didn't play there all year...and you'll definitely hear the Russell Westbrook comparison but the difference is Westbrook played 17 games at the point while Darren Collison was out.....and was more of a contributor than Holiday was..... and James Johnson of Wake Forest makes it official....
• MLB Roundup: Chris Carpenter dominates....that came out of nowhere but taking a no-no to the 7th and exiting with 1 hit? impressed.... Joey Votto is mashing....A good sign for the Mariners? How bout Jarrod Washburn throwing 8 scoreless innings....That could be huge for them... and I think I may have mentioned by love for the Royals... Kyle Davies (former Brave, now good) threw 7 scoreless....if he's even decent...look out

A mini-rant on the Masters....how does live coverage not start until 4:00 when Tiger tees off at 10:45? That's ludicrous....More later
