Greetings Golfers,

Ten years ago on Super Bowl Sunday, it was -20 degrees in Minnesota. Today, 5 days after Super Bowl Sunday, it might hit 50 degrees in Minnesota.

You better be thinking March golf in Minnesota.

Speaking of the Super Bowl … how crazy was that! And how unbelievable have the recent major championships been in the world of sports?

About a month ago, the NCAA Football Championship game was as amazing as this year’s Super Bowl. Clemson winning with one second to go in the game … really?

And just a few months ago, the Chicago Cubs won maybe the most exciting World Series of all time. I say maybe, because the Twins-Braves Series in 1991 was as good as it gets … and, I actually remember the 1960 World Series when Pittsburg beat the Yankees on a walk-off home run in game 7.

The next big sports thrill is March Madness … last year’s championship game was mind-boggling also … remember Villanova winning on a last second shot?

Don’t forget about golf … how good was the Ryder Cup?

The next big golf event is the Masters. I love all of the Majors … but the Masters is my favorite. Can it live up to all of the other incredible sports championships of the past year? Wouldn’t surprise me at all.

Cheers,
