What in the world are these golfer's doing pimping wine is my question? I mean I'll give 'em some cred on something that has dimples on it . . . maybe even a pair of slacks. But wine??? I take my old lady out for dinner after playing golf and being gone for 5 or 6 hours . . . "Yo girl . . . you gotta snort up some of this Luke Donald or John Daly wine." Sure fire way NOT to get hooked up on the golf course or anywhere.

And Goosen's wine . . . . what kind of personality are you gonna have after drinking that one?

Wine . . . please.

"Opus 1" (Napa Valley) is owned by a Dentist. $300.00 bucks a bottle. Way overated. I told the Winery Manager that they should change the name to "Pompus 1".

I have to admit, I've tried many of the wines (owned in part) by some of the Pro's. They're pretty good actually. I was surprised. The Greg Norman Cab is worth repeating and I've had bottles that I thought were among the best in class.

He'd better sell a bunch of it with that D-I-V-O-R-C-E deal . . .

Is Boone's Farm Wild Island up there on your list?

You ain't heard about that? He's been helping Chris Everett with her backhand. He was supposedly best friends with her hubby . . . probably not no more. They're supposed to get hitched pretty soon.
