Presented for your consideration: one of my favorite stories out of Day 1 of the Presidents Cup. It seems Geoff Ogilvy was setting up for a putt that would have halved the third hole when someone's cell phone rang. Bad form, yes, but not a mortal sin. Then, as Ogilvy was setting up once again ...

... the phone rang again. Ogilvy and playing partners, including Tiger Woods, sussed out the perpetrator, and it turned out to be a course marshal! The marshal apparently couldn't figure out how to turn off his cell phone -- seems like a fairly easy thing to figure out, but whatever -- and he went scurrying off into the wilds of San Francisco.

All finished, right? Not so fast. Because when Ogilvy set up to putt a third time, somebody in the crowd hollered what the AP called a "a Caddyshack reference." Since golf course shouters are rarely witty, I'm sure it was "Noonan," but you never know -- he could have thrown us a curve with "Hey everybody! We're all gonna get ... "

Anyway, Ogilvy and Ryo Ishikawa got waxed by Woods and Steve Stricker, so it didn't much matter, but still ... I'm thinking that marshal is as out of work as Barry Bonds right about now.

(By the way, dig that cheeseball with the phone. Man, we were all so silly-looking back in 1998.)
