STICKS FOR CLUBS FOR CHARITY

Razor at last year's tournament.

A few notes from the Dallas Stars Dr Pepper Golf Classic at Craig Ranch today.

• Captain Brenden Morrow stayed true to this season’s marketing slogan “Actions Speak Louder” when he used only 17 words during his pre-tourney speech.

• With Marty Turco winning the Closest to the Pin, Mark Fistric capturing the Long Drive and Mike Ribeiro winning a team signed hockey stick the prize handouts essentially resembled a Stars ponzi scheme.

• I had two Dicks in my group, and we had a blast.

• I’m rating this year’s First Tee giveaway “Best Ever”. Crown is yummy.

• Whoever placed the pins on those par 3s that featured a chance to win a car for a Hole in One is a douche. What, they wouldn’t let you put them in the sand?

• David Feherty is one funny son-bee.

• The weather was glorious.

• Someone stole my putter before the round. You know who you are, and when I find you I’m gonna get all medieval on you. (Loved that putter)

• My trip up 75 to the golf course was detoured cause a guy was threatening to jump off the overpass of George Bush Freeway.

• Fabian Brunnstrom won the “Sergei Zubov Most Foreign to the Game of Golf Award” by requesting a set of left handed clubs and then, upon reaching his starting hole, realizing he is actually a righty.

• My group shot 13 under and lost in something called a score-card retrogression. I believe that’s also how the Stars keep losing in OT.

• One request for next year – instead of two Dicks for the foursome how about two mics for the post tournament program?
