Dufner clearly got the exact same incorrect read on the 17th hole both times, and a little extra adrenaline was probably what made the playoff version even worse. As a student of putting, I know that you have to trust your reads...but you also have to adapt, and Dufner failed to adapt. It ended up costing him the match, given that he was as clutch as possible both times on the 18th. I second that hope that he finds himself in a position to win again.

Well deserved win for Bradley. For a tour rookie to make that many spectacular shots after triple-bogeying the 15th like that...brass balls. He's not so highly touted as McIlroy or Ishikawa, but I guarantee he's not a one-and-done. As for Dufner, it's got to sting. It wasn't such a monumental choke, because 15-18 were eating pretty much everybody alive. But there are certainly some shots that he'll replay in his nightmares.

This turned out to be a hell of a tournament, even without the star power. Dufner and Bradley headed to a 3-hole aggregate playoff after a gutsy 2-putt from each on the 18th.

The only minor controversy during Lee's tenure were comments in support of Losman after Edwards had been named the starter. Other than that, not a peep. That writer seems to be talking out of his ass.

It appears as if we're headed for 14 straight majors with 14 different winners. The sport certainly needs its next big thing to come soon.

So would Romney haha.

They should really increase the security at Arkham.

May I suggest Green Bay FudgePackers?

Right, but what I'm asking is, is there any solid evidence that he was taking drugs in the first place? I realize Tiger has entered the "Tyson Zone" where you'd believe anything and everything about him, but how can we be sure he was on PEDs? Has there been a precipitous drop in his distance that can't be explained by the reduction in torque from his ACL injury?

My thoughts on PEDs and golf...aside from adding 15-20 yards of driving distance, how exactly would steroids or human growth hormone help a golfer become a champion? As a golfer myself, there aren't too many occasions during a round where raw strength is your greatest advantage.

I'll take an episode of South Park over a non-Bills preseason game every time.

I think I have what it takes. For example, I'm still winning.

It is sad to watch such a quick downward spiral. Hopefully one of the young promising golfers in the game today will be able to take Tiger's place, though it's doubtful we'll see anything like the dominance we saw early in Tiger's career. For several years, it was Tiger vs. The Field, and that's no exaggeration. Interestingly enough, one of the pseudo-successors to Tiger's throne, Ryo Ishikawa, imploded for a +15 in the opening round. He's still very very young, though.

Is this the death knell for Tiger's career?

Don't you pay attention to this board? Maybin uses twitter, ergo no heart.

Favorite - Gus Johnson. He just makes sports fun. I'll gladly make time to watch a Week 13 matchup between the Bengals and Rams if GJ is calling it. Least Favorite - Kevin Harlan. Just grating.

And then the guy says, "No. My name is Dick Jauron." He then proceeds to take the magazine to his car and masturbate to defensive back ratings.

Just read the wiki article. Mr. Wells may not have known he'd be carrying a real bomb, but he was implicit in planning the bank robbery, so the result isn't what you'd call heartwrenching. I say joke away!

I envy you Alaskans. I'd like to wake up at 9 and just watch the game.

That's a pretty flawed rating system.

Whatever responsiblities belong to Russ Brandon at this point, building the football team is no longer one of them.

One of my favorites. I watched it when I was a child, and then I was surprised at the degree to which I still found it hilarious as an adult. By chance, do you remember a scene where Cranston's character Hal suffers a stress breakdown from being charged with responsibility over the boys for an evening, and he ends up in a confrontation with hundreds of different manifestations of his being, each one attempting to advise him? Too funny!

I like to think the writers intended for us to think that way. In the beginning of the series, when Walt was a Casper Milquetoast, Hank didn't have enough respect for him to ever consider Walt's involvement. Now that W.W carries himself with a sense of identity, the inklings would be more believable. I hope that made sense. And yeah, you can't say enough about Aaron Paul. I'm continuously amazed by his ability to carry a scene without ever opening his mouth. Perhaps I'm just taking Bryan Cranston for granted at this point, but right now it's very debatable over which man is the more capable actor.

Well that's just too bad for Arizona, then.

John, I'm with ya. Is it probable that the Bills will make the playoffs? No. I'd personally put the odds around or under 25%. But it's pretty foolish to pretend like there's no point in even watching the season because the Bills have zero chance. Where's the winning spirit in that??? Most years, you can count on a one team in each conference to surprise everybody and make the playoffs. Last year it was the Chiefs. Why not the Bills this year?
