I don't know exactly how the points work, bbut i would think that for anyone outside the top 10 to win, Rory would have to finish 29 or 30?

Isn't Vijay like 83 years old?

Yeah I don't know about the Fed Ex Cup thing either. To me it is just a big money grab. Sure it is a nice
title to have but doesn't mean anything like majors or WGC events not to mention some of the bigger
tournaments on tour like The Memorial. I am just hoping for some big names up there near the end
and some good golf. Should be a good sports weekend with some big college games, golf, and NFL on
Sunday.

Think about this as well:

Fred Couples is going to the Hall of Fame in 2013. He's got 12 PGA Tour victories and only one major. However, two of his victories were at the Players Championship. Does this mean that if a player manages a few wins during his career and one major he's automatically HoF material?

What about the WGC events and FedEx Cup Playoffs that weren't around 15 years ago? Bill Haas - last year's FXC winner - has a couple wins on his resume and won a playoff format amidst the best players in the world. If he wins a major, is he automatically a lock for the Hall?

I think all of these newer formats and events have lessened the importance and impact of the Majors.

There are only 10 current PGA players that have more than 10 victories on tour. I would say the new mark to make
the hall is probably 12 to 15 wins believe it or not. The fields the last 10 - 15 years have become so much more
balanced in men's golf. Paddy Harrington only has 5 PGA Tour victories but 3 majors. Do you keep him out of the hall?

Right, but Harrington has other wins outside of the TOUR, just as many other players have.

It all boils down to what Hall voters want to use as the standard. If it is overall wins, then raise the bar. If it is major victories, then the Hall needs to open its doors to a lot more golfers. If it is "fame", then that is a different subject entirely.

Yes it is all very subjective. I only see a handful of guys out there right now that deserve that kind of honor and are
locks. Woods, Mickelson, Els, Singh and maybe Davis Love III

Daly has 5 career wins including 2 majors.

I would love to be at the party he would throw.

I have the Big Kuch this week. I'm still in striking distance to win this thing. Come on Kuch! GET IN THE.... oh wait...wrong guy.

I would love to be at the party he would throw.

He doesn't drink anymore.

And Prince Fielder only eats salads.

I don't know how anyone could bad mouth the FedEx Cup. How can anyone say that watching exciting competitive golf for an entire month of September is somehow a bad thing????

I've watched every day of the playoffs and its been awesome. Enjoyed every minute of it. Love watching Tiger and Rory play together, how can anyone who loves golf not?

In the end, i don't care who actually wins. I just like the month of tournaments with top fields.

Also, i would rather have the weighted system that helps assure that the top players for the year make it to the end. Even if that means guys can skip an event.

If there was no FedEx Cup the season would end after the PGA Championship. As it is now, we have great tournaments with top players for an entire extra month! The tournaments have been great, the golf has been amazing. I don't really give a shit if the system is flawed in someway according to some, the great golf easily outweighs any complaints with the format.

Ok, fair enough. But let me ask you this:

Why has it been great golf?

Have you seen the amazing shots that have been made week in week out? Guys holing out chips left and right. For the most part, all the tournaments have been close right down to the wire. Watching guys jockey to make the cut for the next week has been dramatic. Seeing Rory win 3 out of 4 has been a thing of beauty to watch. And even with all that success just about every time he's paired up with Tiger, Tiger rises to the occassion and outplays him. I really enjoy watching the friendship between Tiger and Rory on the course. Love watching the short game play of Snedeker. Watching Phil scramble. Seeing guys like Garrigus come out of nowhere to challenge the big boys.

Its just been phenomenal golf in my opinion and I have loved every minute of it. Got home from work and watched all 5 hours of coverage yesterday, can't wait to do it again tonight.
