UFC 135 – HANEY vs FOLEY

UFC 135 Haney Foley

Ultimate Flogging Championship – UFC 135 – HANEY VS FOLEY

There’s a new UFC (Ultimate Flogging Championship) coming during Masters week next month.  Following the recent spats in the media between Tiger Woods’ current swing coach Sean Foley and Tiger’s former coach Hank Haney, the two have agreed to a five round championship bout in the octagon in UFC 135 – HANEY VS FOLEY.

The Match Up

While one may pick Foley because he is a few years younger, don’t count out Haney’s experience.

Haney’s strengths are ground and pound, Muay Thai and a bit of Brazilian Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.  Haney will want to get the fight to the ground as soon as possible and take Foley out of his game plan.

Foley will want to keep the match off the ground and play to his strength, boxing in the stand up game.  Foley has a strong jab which could do some damage to Haney.  The question about Foley is whether he can defend the take downs by Haney well enough.

HOG attempting to get exclusive interviews soon

My management team is in the process of tracking down Foley and Haney in attempt to do some exclusive interviews.  Stay tuned.

How Cars Float

Just yesterday this question crossed my mind: How do cars float?  The one thing I was most interested in regarding the production of a golf tournament or PGA Tour event, was figuring out how they made the cars float.  I thought perhaps they had some sort of scaffolding which extended to the bottom, but then I thought that wouldn’t work.

Low and behold I read a tweet from my good buddy Rob at Sandbox.com.  He’s covering the WGC Cadillac this week.  He shot a picture (right) of the crew setting up the floating cars in the lake at the Blue Monster in Doral.

Rob, thanks for answering this question which has tied my two celled brain in knots for years. Since you are psychic Rob, time for you to guess what question I’m wondering now…


New Ben Crane video addresses his slow play problem

Ben Crane’s stock is rising in my book.  I’m a fan now.  I really like Ben’s sense of humor.

Ben has taken a lot of flack for being a low player on the PGA Tour and he’s released a new video to address it.  Enjoy.


PGA Tour wives reality show – zzzzzzzzzzz

PGA Tour Wives

Tour wives - click to enlarge

Don’t we have enough reality shows already?

I’ll admit that when I heard of the reality show idea featuring wives of PGA Tour players, I had to close my mouth hard to prevent the barf from exiting.  What is even more fun, is having to swallow it again.

I’ve meant to post about this dumb idea, but after reading my buddy Jeff Palopoli’s blog Good Walk Spoiled and his opinion piece on the subject, I’d just say “here here” and tell you to go read that.

All due respect to these fine women, I think they’re missing the boat if they want any TV traction at all by leaving out the one wife who could draw men to watch the program.  She would be the new wife of Hunter Mahan, a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader.
