In the Bleachers by Ben Zaehringer for January 31, 2010

That what happens when you make a deal with the devil.

Has anyone else seen this be-fore?

Well, there is an excess of fuel where he comes from!

I didn’t know that Spanish train’s final destination was the golf course.

A

What BURNS his butt??? A fire that high…

Can you say, Asbirin?

gotta remember that one next time I blow a putt…just blame it on the devil

Part One

The devil went down to Augusta He was lookin’ for a soul to steal He was in a bind ‘Cause he was way behind And he was willin’ to make a deal

When he came upon this young man Who was hittin’ greens and playin’ it hot He was swingin’ an iron and makin’ his putts And the devil said boy I’ll tell you what

I guess you didn’t know it but I’m a Majors’ player too And if you care to take a dare I’ll make a bet with you

Now you swing a pretty good golf club, boy But give the devil his due I’ll bet these clubs of gold against your soul ‘Cause I think I’m better than you

The boy said my name’s Johnny And it might be a sin But I’ll take your bet And you’re gonna regret ‘Cause I’m the best there’s ever been

—

Should of said Tiger, not Johnny

Part Two

Johnny rose and made a vow to play Augusta hard ‘Cause the devil broke loose in Georgia and his demons deal the cards And if Johnny wins he gets the clubs of shiny pearls and gold But if he shanks the devil gets his soul

The devil opened up his bag And he said I’ll start this show And fire flew from his flamin’ tee And his golf ball had a glow

As he pulled his club across his hips it made an evil hiss And a band of demons joined in And the devil said watch this

When the devil finished Johnny said you’re pretty good old son Then Johnny swung his club real high and sank a hole-in-one

The devil bowed his head because he knew that he’d been beat And he laid the golden clubs on the ground at Johnny’s feet

Johnny said, Devil just come on back if you ever wanna try again I done told you once you son of a gun I’m the best there’s ever been

Are Johnny’s clubs grooved? Hope not, they would be considered illegal.

Must be Johnny Miller. Best there was for a couple of years until the yips got him.

Very good Jor-El. :cD

thumbs up Jor-El that’s canuck for ‘good’

“Honey, I HAVE to play a round today…the devil wants a re-match, and I promised I’d take him on any time!”
