    Who wouldn't want to play golf with a celebrity let alone as a celebrity??

    Here's some new avatars I'd like to see.....

    Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter

    Both of these avatars will give you added power off the tee.  But beware, any putted ball will be cleanly fielded and thrown to 1st base.  Not available 'til October, 2010.

     

    Bill Murray

    If bad clothes and even worse golf hats are your thing, this one's for you!

    Pre-programmed with lines from Caddy Shack this avatar will keep you and your playing partners rolling with laughter..."Cinderella boy. Outta nowhere. A former greenskeeper now about to become the Masters champion...."  Shouts "ITS IN THE HOLE" after every shot.

     

    Charles Barkley

    NBA Superstar and TV commentator "Sir Charles" shown here in these rare photos with his mouth closed.

    Comes with a special swing that is perfectly timed to match your meter jumps.  This over-sized avatar occasionally blocks your view of the hole on both the forward and reverse views.

     

    Any others?

    Andyson... I don't think that first one of A-Rod and Jeter will go over well with YankeeJim.  Though, being a Mariner fan myself, I kinda like it.

    And maybe when we're plagued by a jumpy meter we can call it, "I had a Barkley!"

    LOL-Everybody takes shots at the best. You did forget to mention the ARod avatar comes with a driver that goes 400+ and with Jetes you get to have Minka Kelly caddy for you. I'm first in line............

    That A-Rod avatar looks a touch out of shape.  Perhaps he just been gorging since his break-up with Kate.

    Guess his cousin needs to make another run to the Dominican Republic for some more "boli" to inject him with before spring training.

    Heh-That's old Oak-he dealt with it last year and proved himself in October. Tiger should take a page out of both those guys' book.

    LOL man, are you high off your ass or just drunk on the Kool-Aid?  If the prior please share ;)

    A-Rod never dealt with that.  He had the worst PR team in history, even worse than Tiger's.  He lied twice on camera about his use of PED's.  Copping that you kinda used something but you had no clue what you were doing isn't dealing with anything.   Its just lying.

    I will give him props for coming through in the playoffs for the first time in his career though.  He did a good job last year.  Maybe it was just Kate's influence though, haha.

    A-Rod and Tiger have very little in common in terms of performance.  One has been nothing but clutch since the day he was born and the other just finally came through after an entire career of under achieving when the chips were down.  

    Perception will get dicey for A-Rod with the public if he begins to get close to Hank Aaron's number because A-Rod's numbers are significantly tainted.  He better hope people cool off about the PEDs but I doubt it because baseball records are particularly sacred to many.

    On the other hand, Jeter and Tiger have a ton in common.  The one thing that they don't is that one made the mistake of saying "I do" before he banged every nimph in sight and the other has waited until after. ;)

    This is all anybody cares about and he's wearing a ring. He came out, unlike the other 100 or so unnamed in the Mitchell report. Trust me, fickle New York fans could give 2 craps about what he did-it's what have you done for me lately to them. I could care less who did what because it was a cycle that baseball went through and there were a great many partakers of the "juice." The results are nebulous at best and will never be known outside of speculative conversations. Willie Mays coined his juice Kickapoo Joy Juice and drank it before every game-what was in it and why didn't anybody care? It passed. So too will this.

    The best part of all of this is that ARod had a great year and you know good and well he isn't on anything now. 

    Jeter is absolutely untouchable-there isn't anything, anywhere. He is the epitome of how to do it right.

    Wow. LOL.

    Jim, you are truly blinded by your own ideological biases.  

    But I honestly would expect nothing less.  :)
