Masters Icons (but not Jack, Arnie or Seve)
If you like cool shoes, next week will be a good week for you. Starting at 8:00am ET on Monday of Masters week, my good friends and HOG Space Fantasy Golf sponsors at FootJoy will be offering 150 pair of limited edition Augusta-inspired FJ Icons.

FJ Icons are awesome. I have so many pairs I lost count. It is like Christmas every time I go golfing, choosing which pair to wear.
There will be 150 of these pairs available with an exclusive Masters green croc print, the same one produced for the players at the tournament.
Giveaways Too
FootJoy will also be giving away a pair of these per day during the Masters, for a total of four. Stop by the FootJoy web site for that, but you’ll have to beat me to get ’em.
Ryo Ishikawa
I’m very impressed and have gained quite a bit of respect for Ryo Ishikawa after hearing that he’ll be donating ALL of his earnings this year on the Japan and PGA Tour’s to Japan for help recovering from the earthquake.
Based on his earnings and also his extra donations for birdies, that donation will likely be over $2 million. Bravo. Where’s the “like” button?

I’ve had a few days to contemplate the results from my appointment with a well known and respected back specialist here in town. I’m a little stunned really.
The Good News
Years and years ago, a sports doctor here diagnosed me with Scoliosis, a curved spine. There are varying degrees of this disease, some which just cause pain occasionally and some which degrade and can be debilitating. I’ve always accepted the fact that I had this disease, and needed to decline any heavy lifting and try to stay in shape. Always thought that if it got worse, I’d need surgery.
As you may be able to see from my spinal x-ray, my spine isn’t curved. That diagnosis was wrong. The good news is that I actually do NOT have Scoliosis.
The Bad News
