Fedex Cup Fete

The top 30 men, from Tiger down, go at it this weekend for the Tour Championship and the Fedex Cup. Who will this final showdown? Hard to bet against Tiger and he stands just a shot back of Sean O'Hair after the first round. Still, with this caliber of player, everyone's still in the game, even Geoff Ogilvy (an Aussie fav) at +5. Phil Mickelson got off to a fast start but a misfire dropped him back to +3. Lefty's always my personal favorite to watch; I love his "walk on the wild side" attitude, even when it doesn't really make sense, and I'd love to see him make a surge tomorrow. Really, you can't go wrong watching this group - everybody's that good.

It's too early for a Superbowl party; still some scrambling taking place in baseball - so how about a Fedex cup fete? Found some fantastic golf tabletop and barware - and I just had to build a story around it. And hey, for those of us who play, golf on television IS exciting!
