Who's doing the Masters Pool?

    Two stroke penalty! Potential future rule.

    EDIT - Though more importantly, FUCK YOU DARREN CLARKE. God damn 83. Could only beat Seve by 3!

    Not to be a dick, but Clarke is less than a year removed from the loss of his wife to cancer. A smidge of slack might be in order.

    True, but that hasn't kept him from playing -- didn't he play the Ryder Cup soon after she died?

    Ouch. But hey, if I finish dead last with Tiger, I would dare say few people could pull that off in a Masters pool. :D

    Trying to do running scores, as of now yesterday's leaders, Kobe's Trolls, went from 2-under to 11-over.

    Not looking like anyone will be below-par after today.

    Way to lead my team, Eldrick.

    Could you at least miss the cut? I'd be better off.

    And he made some amends with a 71 today. Thanks, DC. Have a cigar and let Jose Maria fill in.

    Second round results have been tabulated and I believe we have a SportsJournalists.com Golf Pool first. No team was DQ'ed for having too many golfers miss the cut. In fact, of the 41 golfers selected as either starters or alternates, less than one quarter of them missed the cut.

    If only the scores were as good as our picking abilities.

    I hereby withdraw my previous complaint about Mr. Woods. :D

    My best golfer (outside of Tiger) is tied for 27th. That's really something.
