by Craig Small I received some interesting news this week. Many of you will remember my recent Monster Card Monday post in which I profiled Phil Mickelson’s 2005 APBA Golf card. I put particular focus on the fact that the card featured a 36:12 result in the I column, a…
by Craig Small I wrote up a nice recap of the second round yesterday but somehow it all got deleted. I’m not sure what happened but my money’s on me hitting the wrong button. At any rate, I don’t feel like writing it again but here’s a very brief summary.…
I’m doing something a little different for MCM this week. I’m handing the duties this time to our APBA golf writer, Craig Small. Enjoy! -Tom I had originally planned to go with Tiger Woods’ 2000 card (it really is a monster) but I noticed something interesting about Phil Mickelson’s 2005…

by Craig Small When I was preparing for my APBA Golf Tournament I was having trouble making the last few selections to fill out the field. I started researching lists put together but Golf Digest and the like of the 15 or 20 greatest golfers of all time. I was…
by Craig Small Just a quick note. I played my third game of the Red Sox 2011 season a few minutes ago. The Rangers trounced the Red Sox 16-4. Josh Hamilton came to bat in each of the first three innings and homered each time. After three innings Hamilton was…
by Craig Small Match 9: Tiger Woods vs. Bobby Locke As expected, Woods just obliterated Locke off the tee and after three holes he jumped to 3-up. Locke roared back behind solid putting and after seven holes, shockingly, the match was all-square. From there the match went back and forth…
