Okay, time to throw this Phil Mickelson-Tiger Woods post-Thanksgiving Las Vegas match right where it belongs — in the Dog House!
In keeping with that, there is a rumor floating out there that a dog will caddy for Mickelson in the match in attempt to boost subscriptions to this ridiculous Pay-Per-View nonsense.
One big new development:
No fans at the match. You read that right, no tickets will be available for purchase by the general public. Seems the organizers will make it a small, exclusively snobby gathering of sponsors and their peeps along with other assorted big-wigs and their posses. So unless you know The Great Stiney, you may not be able to score a ducat.
Also, still no word on the exact timing, still the day after Thanksgiving, no starting time.
Also, still no word on the Pay-Per-View charge for this match between the two guys who combined to go 0-for-six at the recent Ryder Cup matches in France.
Also, there’s word out there that Mickelson’s agent drew into the contract that the rough can be no longer than one-half-inch high.
So the bullspit goes on and on and on.
Don’t worry gang, there’s plenty of good football that day, just ask Justin Thomas

Wow, worse and worse. I’m assuming you’re kidding about the “rough”. A lot of times I would rather hit from a 1/2 inch rough than from a fairway – if there even is such a thing.
Weather permitting, I think we’ll go out and play a round ourselves and grab drinks and dinner afterwards. Seems a much better use of time..

As Triumph The Insult Comedy dog says: “I kid, I kid.” Yes, we are having fun with it but it has now become such a non-item that yes, I think I’ll get in some practice time myself. Phil and this rough business is, in and of itself, such a joke, hard to believe a professional would take that posture, but then again, it’s Phil. He’s a baby and a whiner.
