I'M BACK ... BUT WAS I EVER REALLY GONE?:
John Daly announced that he would be competing in this week's AT&T
Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and that his amateur partner would be
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo. Due to his status as a major
champion, Daly did not need a sponsor's exemption to get into the field.
Dennis
Hopper stayed dry in "Hoosiers" longer than Daly stayed away from golf.
Granted he's not using a sponsor's exemption at Pebble, but he's still
taking up a spot. Unfortunately, Daly's dramatic performance in the
Torrey Pines parking lot was not recognized by the Academy Award
nominating committee as it was deemed less believable than Matt Damon as a South African rugby player.

“Get real John Daly is short of money, he would left if he had the money, plus he told us he did not care what we thought about him anyway.”
