NO LONGER THE SAME AS IT EVER WAS

What is up with Phil Mickelson all of a sudden? After years of toiling away in near mediocrity, now he’s lighting up the leaderboards, this week at the FBR Open in Scottsdale, AZ. Has he taken a dip in Lake Agassi?

I don’t care much for golf, but even I know that Mickelson’s chronic underachievement is one of the constants in sports, right along with George Steinbrenner firing people and the NCAA investigating SEC football programs. If Mickelson keeps this up, Jim Rome will have to find another golfer to pick on.
