Golfweek's annoying obsession
Monday January 31, 2005 | 02:53:33 115 words, 577 views
I generally enjoy reading Golfweek, but I just don’t get the magazine’s new obsession with outgoing LPGA commish Ty Votaw. Forget that the selection firm hasn’t been chosen yet and Votaw isn’t going anywhere until the end of the year. Already we’re getting weekly updates from our friends at Golfweek.
Even worse, the magazine is convinced the LPGA’s next leader should be a woman. In fact, they’re seemingly obsessed with helping to find that woman. If the LPGA is smart - and they usually are - they’ll ignore Golfweek’s input and find the best candidate available - man or woman.

With apologies to Sports Illustrated, today’s Sign of the Apocalypse: According to Yahoo and Google, the names dominating the top search terms for 2004 were Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Jessica Simpson, and Pamela Anderson. Paris Hilton was second on both lists? Are you kidding me? Am I so old already that I’m totally missing the appeal of Paris Hilton?
Second sign of the Apocalypse: Randy Johnson is going to be playing in the Bronx. Good luck with that, Randy. Be sure to start that subscripton to the Post tomorrow. full post »
Like a Rolling Stone

If you’re like me, it’s been years since you picked up a copy of Rolling Stone magazine. But the recent issue listing its 500 best songs of all time was well worth a second look.
As always, online beats the hard copy. Visit the Rolling Stone site and you can sort the list by rank, artist, song title, and year. Excellent stuff. Let the arguments begin. full post »
