BUICK BABES

After Camilo Villegas birdied the last two holes on Thursday, I thought for sure we see him in Sunday’s final. But no suck luck. How or why he missed the cut is irrelevant. I’d like to think Camilo missed the cut because I may have inadvertently hurt him when I wrapped my paws around his precious body and held on for dear life- we may never know. But he missed the cut and I didn’t think I could go on. Until, I had a flashback of a topless Ian Poulter and a smiling Charles Howell III and his eyes, and my libido was back in action.

First stop for the libido train was a viewing of the promo spot for the Stanford St. Jude Championships. The event will be held in Memphis June 4th-10th. In the Emmy worthy spot, our lawn-kat prowls the streets, dressed in white, and reminds us that “desire knows no bounds” as he gets down into our oh-so-favorite position.

Taking the Tour by storm is PGA Rookie Brandt Snedeker. Snedeker turned Pro in 2004 and has won 2 Nationwide titles. Last year, he checked in 9th on the Nationwide money list. Hottie resides in Nashville and possess every Southern charm you’d expect. Always smiling, humble, sweet, and downright adorable, this precious rookie is kicking ass at the Buick, and unless he injures his groin tonight, I’m sure we’ll see him on Sunday, perhaps finishing in the top three.

STEALING TIGERS BALLS
So many people have called me to ask what happened to Tiger Woods’ golf bag. “I heard someone stole Tigers bag” they all ask. Lets clarify the misunderstanding; Tigers bag was stolen in two Buick commercials. The Buick debuted two 30-second spots featuring Tiger Woods hitting balls on the driving range when a man tries to steal his balls and golf bag. In the first ad, Woods throws a golf ball at the guy, hitting him in the back. For the second spot, Woods “told the director he wanted to chase the guy down,” so the spot shows him actually tackling the man. Woods said, “If someone took my bag, I would do something a little bit more than just throw a golf ball at him.”

WORDS OF WISDOM

On Thursday, the Sports Business Daily went One-on-One with former NFL beast Emmitt Smith. After his stint on Dancing With The Stars, I had immediately added him to my Mensa reject list. After reading this interview, Emmitts status has been permanently changed to Mensa King.

Q: What’s the biggest challenge facing the NFL?
Smith: How to maintain and continue to grow their fan base, and to create product offering for their fan base to keep them interested in the game and in the brand that the NFL is offering.
Q: How can the game be improved for the fan in the stadium and the fan at home? Smith: I think you have to give the fan an opportunity to have much more of a personal experience. And whether that means meeting players in the locker room after games, that’s something that teams may have to look at. How to give the fans an experience they would never get anywhere else.

TOLD YA SO
God help us all…David Beckham and waif Victoria are reportedly going to be starring in their own reality TV show modeled after The Osbournes. A source revealed that Posh and Becks were now seriously considering the offer that has been made by American network Fox. If they do decide to go ahead with the show, then American audiences will get to see why the rest of the world is sick of them.

CAGE ME UP

“Access Hollywood” reported that Nicolas Cage will serve as grand marshal for the NASCAR Nextel Cup Daytona 500 on February 18, but Daytona Int’l Speedway officials “would not confirm the report.”
