Yuns (that's Pittsburgh for "you all) can dump on Jero all you want but I know one thing for sure: he's got more money than all of us put together. And I'm sure we've all done worse in our scramble for the legal tender. At least in his granny's eyes.

He'd have probably gotten away with it if he wasn't such a publicity hound.

Have your guts for garters? that's a bit brutal. My wife simply says "go ahead, I'll cut them off and hand them to you."
You will also find that people who cheat at golf will cheat anywhere. Beware the foot wedge!
