Easter, Cheating, Tiger's luck, Hatchets


Happy Easter!

Of Note:

-Here's a very good article on cheating, no, not the marital kind, the New England Patriots' kind - stealing signals. The author uses an oft quoted Shakespearian phrase: at length, truth will out. He cites the 2001 confirmation of the theft of the pitch which Bobby Thompson hit to win a playoff game way back in 1951 - 'the shot heard around the world.' I admit my bias, that of being a avid Colt fan. Wouldn't hurt my feelings at all if the ill gotten Super Bowl victories were stripped from the New Englanders. (Wonder why WaPo chooses an Easter Sunday morning to publish this piece?)

-Tiger's luck? TW has an off day and gets the round suspended after 11 holes because of rain. Of course he might have done what Vijay did with the rest of his back nine - birdies on 12, 13, 14 and 16. And what's with Tiger's short putting game? He never misses those. Chinks in the armor. Tiger fans expect a turn around today. Oops - just checked - he did not birdie #12, a par 5.

-Congrats to the Hatchets who made it look easy in winning state yesterday. The Irish could have used Luke's younger brother Ty last night against Washington State.
