We Found the Missing Link....



Well, sort of....several years back Rick Reilly (love him or hate him..) wrote a pretty cool piece of fiction about our favorit sport called "Missing Links". Now the story has broken that Missing LInks will be made into a feature film. For those of you who have not read the book, I highly recommend it - you can snag a copy right here.


It's a great story about a group of people who (what else) play golf and hang out at a local muni that's under seige by the neighboring high brow Country Club. It's got laughs, sex (yowza!!!), and even a few moments to tug your emotions. If that's not enough, it's rumored that Steve Carrell of "The Office" fame will take the starring role. I'm more of a fan of Ricky Gervais than Steve Carrell, but I'm sure the flick will be well worth the effort - so be sure to check it out

OK, So I know it's been a while, But Michael F*$#@+@ Jordan ???


Ok, I admit it...it's been a fu*&^$% long time little while since you've heard anything from here at Bushwood. I could go on and on about how busy I have been, how the new tree fort Clubhouse has taken up all of my time, or how I've found other passions....but nobody gives a sh&t about that anyway..so let's move onto something interesting mind boggling.

Somehow, in the short time I have been incarcerated away, Michael Jordan has morphed from a stogie chompin', gambling addicted, philandering, 7 handicap (cough,cough) hacker into a "Golf Mentor", one able to offer motivational advice and golfing tips to none other than the World's Greatest Golfers ! Yep, thats right folks - none other than MJ has "elevated his game" right off the hardball courts onto the links - with seemingly no loss of stature. I have no idea WTF Freddie Couples was thinking, or what MJ actually DID for the team (other than maybe dispense some "Hot Slots" tips), but watching him on TV at the President's Cup totally was a barf inducing event for me. Top that off with some typically insightful commentary about his presence from Kelli Tilghman- Bacon and you have pure Golf Nirvana.

What the hell is next ? And when do we have the inevitable crossover - you know, like Camillo Villegas as a ball boy at the Wimbledon Ladies Finals ? Or Anthony Kim as as the "Official Mixologist" at the Kentucky Derby ?
