Odyssey brews up putter cover with bottle opener for Waste Management Phoenix Open
Chris CondonForget the Super Bowl. It's officially Waste Management Phoenix Open week here in our neck of the sports woods, and that means more fun, sun, and Coors Light consumption than you can shake ASU co-ed booty at. The festivities are just getting underway, but from the looks of things, Odyssey has already been pre-gaming with their new, beer key-outfitted putter cover that pays tribute to the tournament's long, proud history of debauchery.

Designed to look like a beer tap, the celebratory mallet cover, in addition to the aforementioned bottle opener, features a variety of custom badging—including “pour it in” and “please putt responsibly”—rendered in the infamous tourney's green-and-yellow color scheme. There's even a matching blade cover, for the rare party boy traditionalists in the crowd. Needless to say, long birdie bombs on 16 have never looked (or tasted) so good…

Montrealers stuck in 75-car pile-up turn highway into hockey rink to pass the time
Ladies and gentleman, we found it—the most Canadian video of all time. While stuck in a 75-car traffic jam just east of Montreal this weekend, several Quebec locals responded by hopping out of their trucks and turning the frozen highway into a makeshift rink. The only thing that's missing is Rush blaring over the radio and some guy swigging maple syrup straight from the bottle.

On a weekend where hockey, much to the chagrin of Minnesotans everywhere, went hi-tech, embedding GPS tracking on players and pucks for the 2019 All-Star Game, this is a refreshing return to what hockey is truly about: Generational passion…and frostbite. No tracking lasers or Bryson-approved real-time stat HUDs, and certainly not whatever the hell this was…

The only real question we have, is why the quartet passing the puck around didn't invited the lone guy in the back with his own to s..

OK, fine, Novak Djokovic is the GOAT
I, chief Rafa Nadal fanboy in the US of A, am writing this at 10 a.m. on Sunday, fresh off the pain of watching my favorite athlete in the universe suffer a thorough Australian Open beatdown at the hands of Novak Djokovic. Despite the newness of the defeat, Djoker had the courtesy to put Rafa die-hards like myself out of our misery quickly. It was clear after three games that he was going to win—he looked like the loose, borderline cocky gumby-like prodigy of our nightmares—and by the time he clinched his first break in the second set, all hope was gone. Rafa fought, because that's what he does, but there was no amount of sheer will that could have overcome the talent deficit on display. Which means, unlike the aggravating Wimbledon semifinal loss last year, it's not that hard for me to put this into context.
Here's the context: Rafa was probably playing the best hardcourt tennis of his career these last two weeks, due in large part to a revamped serve that ate up the be..
