Commenting on Doug Carey’s recent blog advising Michelle Wie how to plot her future on (LPGA? PGA?) tour, a reader named Bill wrote, “The PGA Tour is for the best of the best, not for the best white men. Remember it was not that longer ago when they were going to sever (sic) Collard Greens at the Masters! …”

Can someone tell me what the heck’s wrong with collard greens!? Does a FOOD have some offensive connotation? Man, I LOVE collard greens! Down home cookin’ like collards and BBQ (be it Texas style or Southern smoked pork) is one of the things about America I miss the most living here in Europe. In fact, I’d reckon that, despite our obvious disagreements, the Rebel Blogger and I might be able to to peacefully coexist if it was over a table of pulled pork, greens, biscuits, black-eyed peas and rice and sweet tea. Mercy.
