Watson crumbles, Roy Halladay, etc.

Still not overly busy on the sporting front...but alas..
  • Tom Watson misses a short par putt....and the British Open title....It came down to the short-to-intermediate putting game down the stretch and Senior Watson couldn't handle it...one of the great golf stories I can remember failed to finish the storybook ending the way that Nicklaus did in 1986 at Augusta....Stewart Cink calmly put his foot to the floor and smashed Watson by 6 shots in their 4-hole playoff...but that's not the story...Watson was fantastic for the game and saved the Tiger-less weekend for the TV....but we all wanted him to win it...
  • Roy Halladay just plugging right along... A complete game 6-hitter despite all the trade rumors... oh yeah...and he beat the best team in the AL in Boston.... he's a horse...
  • The A's and Angels played 10-inning 1-0 game that featured a perfect game into the 7th by youngster Brian Anderson, a 9 inning, 3 hit, 0 ER performance by John Lackey, and a game-winning bomb in the 10th by Bobby Abreu...sounds like a game I should've been watching...
  • Chris Wilcox to Detroit....Not really sure about the fit of that one...but the money (2 years, 6 million) isn't bad to take a flier on him here... I'm still a little confused by their frontcourt rotation of Prince, Charlie V, Daye, and Wilcox...but maybe Wilcox can play some center? 
  • I'm going to need someone to sign Ramon Sessions...
  • I know he catches flack from people in the media (a la Stephen A Smith)...but Rasho Nesterovic is a capable NBA center...and there aren't many of those...get that man a job as well...
More later
