Tiger Woods


As you may or may not know, Tiger Woods is absolutely killing it right now. This is a cool quote from David Faherty (golf announcer dude) about Tiger:

"People have accused me of being so far up Tiger's arse that he can barely make a full swing, but I maintain that he is a special person. There's no one else on the planet who can do what he does or even think of doing what he does. I've often thought, instead of showing Tiger's reaction to a shot he's hit, we really should show the reaction of those around him."

But here is the next best thing. "I'm walking down the 18th fairway at Firestone Country Club with Ernie Els and Tiger, who has popped up a three-wood about 40 yards behind Ernie into some wet, nasty, horrible, six-inch rough," Feherty says.

"Tiger's cursing and taking clumps out of Ohio with his three-wood. And, of course, we're not showing this on TV because we want to be able to interview him later. Ernie and I walk past Tiger's ball, and it is truly buried.

"Ernie is tied with Tiger and he's in the middle of the fairway. I'm standing with Ernie and my microphone is open. Ken Venturi [in the CBS booth] sends it to me and I say, 'Tiger's got 184 yards with two big red oaks overhanging the green. He's got absolutely nothing. With a stick of dynamite and a sand wedge I might be able to move this ball 50 yards.

Steve Williams [Woods' caddie] tells me [with a hand signal] that he's using a pitching wedge.'

"Tiger takes his swing. Every muscle in his body is flung at the ball. It looks like he's torn his nutsack. The divot went as far as I could hit the ball. I've got my microphone at my mouth thinking, what the hell was that! The ball sails over the trees, lands behind the hole and
backs up to about six feet from the flag. I open my microphone and Ernie turns and says, 'F*** me!'

"My producer comes on in my earpiece and says, 'Was that Ernie?' I say yes. He says, 'Fair enough.'

"I could have described that shot for 15 minutes and not done as good a job as Ernie did with two words. This is the second best player in the world talking, and you wanna know how good Tiger is? Ask Ernie Els."

Crookers





Just like everybody that I know, I am infatuated with the sound of Crookers. So, I have compiled as many tracks of them as I could to share with all. Enjoy!

If you don't know about Crookers:

"Crookers consists of DJ PHRA and Bot, two gifted gentlemen from Italy who deliver bassy ass remixes of artists like Cazals, Bonde do Role, Dusty Kid, Armand Van Helden, and Chemical Brothers. They add a grungy electro bassline to just about everything they touch, which is one of the reasons I’m feeling their stuff. Crookers basically take a track and turn it into a dance floor killer and that’s all that really needs to be said."

New Nationals Stadium



Drove by this the other day- And, I must say that I am excited for baseball season to start! It's going to be fun to catch some games there this summer. It definitely looks like a vast improvement over RFK. Although, I will root for the Nats... the O's will forever be my team.

Review: Nouveau Riche (3/22)



Admittedly, I will never say a negative thing about Nouveau Riche (except for the few times I've complained because there are too many people there) but in regards to last weekend's Nouveau Riche, there is nothing negative to say. What a great night. Blaqstarr definitely killed it . Everyone I saw there had a great time. The place was nuts.
I can't wait till next month!
