Several years ago, before the advent of the blogs on these pages, I had some good fun writing about Phil Mickelson’s first major win.

Today, I’ll do my best to send along observations as close to real time as possible, typos be damned.

Fist thought: Whoever came up with that corny ‘Circle of Life at Augusta” theme should be fired. Geez, I was waiting for Palmer, Player, and Nicklaus to burst into the chorus of “Hakuna Matata.”

Makes me want to see a childless orphan win the thing. Do we have any of those in the field?
