No one really expected New Jersey’s budget crisis to shut down the Atlantic City casinos. When push came to slot machine whirl, the safe bet was the politicians would cave and keep the money bandits operating.
But lo and behold, there was no last minute reprieve to keep the only place in the Garden State that Michael Jordan ever willingly visits open. At 8 a.m. this morning, janitors started locking the doors to Atlantic City’s casinos.
Which surely means that it’s nearby golf courses will probably be filled with even more guys looking for action and side bets than usual. Some who may have never swung a club before. At least a golf club.
Meanwhile, there are surely some folks in New Jersey who suddenly think that having a gay governor who may or may not have been corrupt wasn’t so bad after all. Considering Jon Corzine’s performance here.
Of course, Michelle Wie fans are certain that New Jersey’s been shut down so everyone can watch her in the Match Play Championship.

I'm certain !! Isn't everyone?
Don't blame ya.
Bloggers' competition is fierce !
You wouldn't want your buddy, Alex, to get upset at you. The ranks of the Baldie Berserkers are too thin as it is.
She is my pick to win this week. Her golf mojo is just too strong now.
I believe Annika & Lorena are in the same bracket and should meet (if they get that far) in the semi-finals.
Both are long ball drivers but Lorena's putting has been off in the last few tournaments.
Looking for a Annika/Michelle final where experience & putting will trump Wie's longer drives.
