They failed to make the cut and we only missed one day without them. I thoroughly enjoyed watching both of them and will look forward to the Match Play this week as Ryo plays his third week in a row in the States. I think it is Ikeda that will…

I wonder if he changed his 'look' soon after someone pointed out the way he was dressed or if he remained that way all the way to Vancouver? You can bet everyone loosened at least their ties on that long flight?

It was nice to see most of the Winter…

Good luck Hideki! Outside of knee problems, you truly represent the way a baseball player needs to play to show honor to the game. Enjoyed watching you in New York and will enjoy you playing with the Angels. I am sure we will see all the games between the Anglesl…

I wonder how CNN covered this story? They sure showed the earthquake in Haiti as it was and if a dead baby laying in the corner is not graphic, then what is? If these images portray the help that was needed, then it may be justified. I missed this replay…

I can see a rise in consumption tax as being important, but why not raise it to 6% though I realize it would not be so easy to calculate. It seems if it is at 10% that it will be easier to calculate but that raise is dramatic. I asked…

It is obvious that Okada does NOT have his strongest team on the pitch. Bring back the members playing in Europe and you would probably not be seeing the results that the National team has given. That is my two yen worth. It is still early in the season and…

When I first read the headline to this story, I thought the person who was asked to leave the plane, actually left by someone pushing him out of the plane. Semantics as it may seem, I truly envisioned him being pushed out of the plane. I soon realized my mistake!…

I am just glad that most other Asian countries do not dress like Japanese teenagers or older. I think they do not have the money like Japanese teens seem to have.

A bit off topic, but when will the short skirts become longer ... It is cold out there ...…

Ryo Ishikawa has been the boost that the men's tour has needed since Aoki, Ozaki and Nakajima are no longer a factor. Maruyama was quite popular but he chose to play in the States and just came back. I find it kind of ironic that Ishikawa wins the money title…

I had something similar happen to my locker buddy in junior high back in America. He got beat up pretty bad by a 'gang' and luckily did not die. Reading this story reminded me of that time and it IS a sad story to read!
