Congratulations Angel!
We don't follow any particular sport, but when there is an event the whole world is watching my wife and I like to join in. Personally, I just get a feeling of camaraderie and participation with a huge number of my fellow humans as we all watch the Olympics or World Cup or whatever. Actually, I guess it just makes us followers with the rest of the sheep. Either way, I'm sure Geico, Nike, and Budweiser appreciate the phenomenon.
So we turned on the Masters and caught the final round and Angel Cabrera's winning putt. Good for him. As I watched the interviews of the competitors as they got eliminated one by one, I couldn't help but notice a certain... pattern to their physique. Tiger Woods aside, there did not seem to be many participants who exemplified the sport of golf as an actual source of calorie-burning exercise. My wife put it succinctly when she said, "I've seen bowlers who were more ripped than these guys." Considering the final result, maybe Tiger should split a case of Natty Boh with Angel as they smoke cigars in front of the TV.
