Take it from me, there is nothing more annoying that wrapping up a long day of blogging when you don't have your best stuff only to be pulled aside by your editors to pee in a little plastic cup.Colin Montgomerie knows what I'm talking about. After his two-over 72 at the Bridgestone Invitational, Monty, always one to be patient and understanding, was pulled aside to relieve himself in the name of HGH.
The 45-year-old Montgomerie acknowledged he didn't really know what the procedure was. Then, as he left the scorer's trailer, he turned to his caddie and said, ``This is a complete waste of time.''This really is comical. The PGA Tour made a big stink about implementing steroids testing and so far they've pulled aside the likes of Davis Love III, Charles Howell III, Tim Clark and now Monty. Has anyone seen Monty? It's not like he's injecting at the turn or anything.
Since Tiger Woods is obviously what keeps the tour rolling, I'd like to start an ongoing bet on how long it takes before he's pulled aside for a test. I think it's fair to say that nobody really believes Woods is juiced, but wouldn't it make a tad more sense to pull aside the guy that is jacked like a football player than a man past his prime that looks like something you'd make in a Build-A-Bear? What are they scared of, muscle profiling?

The PGA is playing the game of follow the leader in giving golfers drug tests. Asking Tiger Woods for a drug test? This will get interesting since none of the golfers on tour will confused to being The Incredible Hulk.

for once I DO agree with a Monty statement........"a total waste of time".......this is GOLF, for pete's sake.....and what if they do find something in Tiger's pee......"uhh, Mr. Woods, would you very much mind doing it again, and again, until it's clean?....sir?......of course you can take it at a date of your choosing!".........seriously, we, and the PGA knows, they will GOTCHA absolutely nobody........total waster of time, and golf's integrity.
