Hey, aren't you Sergio Garcia?

I always find it amusing to check out the leaderboard of golf's major championship after the first round. At least then you know who is NOT going to win the title. It's hard for a golfer to win wire to wire. And it's usually some also ran that came up with an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime round.
I don't think Sergio Garcia will hold the lead consistently over the next three days, but I think he can win. I don't have a great reason other than, Why not? Here's an idea, take a chance a pick a player without a hot, Swedish supermodel wife. Or someone who didn't marry a former Phoenix Suns dancer.
The out-of-right field golfer didn't do too shabby in the last two majors. Come on, take a chance.

The first of many

We're in a new era, one both feared and embraced by journalists and newspaper people. The age of the internet. Sure, we're just a decade behind the times ... people have been using the internet since the 1990s and it has just gotten bigger.
With the push by newspapers to make a bigger presence on the internet, this is the latest and greatest product of that -- blogs. It has been a long time coming. I was told quite a few months ago that each of the sports writers in the department would have his own blog. Now here we are.
Hopefully this blog will be fun. Even more so, hopefully it will be funny. I'm still new at this, so the blog might change directions a few times before I settle on the true intent.
One thing this place won't be is a breeding ground for the seedy elements that invaded other blogs. If you have any name-calling to do, go somewhere else. If I have to do this, it might as well be fun.
So, enjoy. And feel free to let me know how you feel.
