We stand on the eve of an important
milestone. A day that provokes national reflection. The kind
of moment that makes you proud to be an American. Yes, Joey Chestnut is poised to topple Kobayashi in the hot-dog eating contest today. Of course, even if Mr. Chestnut fails in his valiant effort, the team at We Rite Goode wanted to take the day to ponder other patriotic moments in our nation's ...

love about sports.

Here in the good ole U.S. of A.
we like to create our own, bastard versions, of
sports. Let us add the bike race to the list. Up at the Massachusetts Bicycle Coalition's annual biking festival, held in Concord, Massachusetts, you can now participate in a bike race AND a pie eating contest all in one. Thats right, its a pie race . What the deal is, the race is a 6 1/2 mile race with 3 pie ...
Even avid golf fans probably don't know much
about Bart Bryant, the 45-year-old journeyman who spent much
of the back nine of the final round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational tied atop the leaderboard with Tiger Woods . Bryant, playing a group ahead of Woods, parred the difficult par-4 18th and made his way to the scorer's tent, presumably under the impression that the worst-case scenario ...
Other than being the daughter of The Hulkster,
why is Brooke Hogan famous? She's like Paris Hilton
Light. That aside, it appears as though she has had some, uh, enhancement done. THEN ... NOW ... So who has bigger boobs now, Brooke or her dad? On a ...

BEN HOGAN WAS FAMOUS for sizing up a
U.S. Open setup and determining what score would win
the pressure-packed 72-hole marathon. And then he would go out and shoot it. Hogan won a record four U.S. Opens, and could easily have won five or six. What will it take to win this year at Torrey Pines? Even par, according to the course superintendent. “Somewhere right around even par could very well ...
THE MONSTER IS READY. Oakland Hills, site of
next week’s PGA Championship, is groomed and sufficiently gnarly
as it awaits the arrival of the world’s best golfers. This monster, as Ben Hogan famously called it after his 1951 U.S. Open victory, will be a severe test for the field of the 90th PGA Championship, according to course superintendent Steve Cook. “We’ve made our par 3s longer and ...

For those of you who don't know why
I'm doing this: I usually do a post on
cool blogs to read from time to time with links involved. Instead of doing that I'm going to introduce you to new sites that are written by bloggers of the female persuasion. Why? Because, believe it or not, a lot of times guys don't read these sites just because they are written by the ladies.
Tiger Woods walked to the 18th tee on
Sunday needing birdie to win. So what happened? Of
course he made birdie to win...doesn't he always. Woods had a 25 foot putt on the final hole to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational, he studied it from every angle, and calmly rolled it in. Fellow competitor, Bart Bryant, who challenged Woods all day said, "I heard a big cheer ...
Talks about Tiger Woods and argues, on his

For golf fans, Tommy Bolt is, was and
will always be the name first associated with temper
on the links. The 1958 U.S. Open champion at Southern Hills, Bolt is probably the most famous hothead golf has ever seen, and he embraced the trait. Bolt died on August 30 at the spry age of 92, leaving behind one of the most famous golf exchanges of all time between himself and Arnold Palmer. ...
