Also wonderful street musicians. We visited the Instituto Cultural Cabanas which is a UNESCO Wo

Hmmm. Following on from last week's third-party questioning of Preki comes this bit from a "very well connected fan of Chivas USA." (hat tip to duNord)... He really was a limited coach. He never bridged a link to Guadalajara. He didn't care to add...

Following a suggestion from a long-time reader, I subscribed to Global Golf Post , a new Orlando-based digital magazine edited by Brian Hewitt (formerly of Golf Channel), in hopes that I'd learn something new about golf on this planet.

I'm as happy as the next guy that Michelle Wie has become the 3rd player of the top 8 without a win as an LPGA member I labelled as "most likely to win this season" to fulfill my expectations and, well, win in this season .
