    Post by Mikestloc: actually he makes a 36 handicapper look relaxed..... the only reason i'm busting him is that about 3 years ago Haney told 20 other golf professionals that I (mikestloc) would be the kind of player who could qualify for the US Open and then shoot a pair of 85s in the...

    "Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or villify them...about the only...
