It's the Masters!

To hear Jim Nantz talk about it . . . "it's a tradition like no other." The Masters always takes place on the first weekend in April. About 15 minutes ago, four-time Masters winner Arnold Palmer served as honorary starter for the tournament. Here's a good history of the tournament, from the Masters website.

I will be glued to the TV this weekend as the best in the game demonstrate their talents in what I refer to as the "Cathedral of Golf." I would like to see Phil Mickelson win (again - he is the defending champion).

Stay tuned.

And by the way, in case you missed it, Florida beat Ohio State for the championship in NCAA basketball. I've chosen not to report about it, as the sting of Georgetown's loss still hurts. Oh, well, better luck next year.

And after dropping their first two games of the season, the Nationals came back to win in dramatic fashion yesterday, loading the bases in the bottom of the ninth and winning the game with a walk-off single.
