 Torleif Sorenson says:Not yet... still hunting and interviewing. I'm also trying to save $3,600 for a used Subaru, which will last me for awhile. Many thanks for asking! 7/3/12
 legitimatebeef says:I watched it on TV. Lots of guys win tournaments, practically a different guy every week, but when you watch someone who has done it 70+ times it's different.

Torleif are you gunning for Nathan's job or something? Nate better watch your back. 7/3/12
Torleif Sorenson says:No LB, Nathan's job is plenty safe. :) I'm just standing in for him for a couple of days. 7/3/12
 Matt McGee says:I hate to admit that I'm victim to it, but golf is more fun to watch when You-Know-Who is playing well. 7/3/12
 jbird2011 says:I went to the tournament on Sunday and following around this group was amazing. It was electric and soooooooooo exciting! There are plenty of Tiger haters out there, but if he isn't a contender, and some of my new favorites are also out of it, I'm not watching. 7/3/12
