Florida, Friday: Greg Norman's claims that he's not yet a spent force in international golf has alarmed members of the PGA tour who fear his grip on reality is dangerously delusional. "He is," said PGA Tour psychiatrist Randy-Chuck Ossieson "what we call in the business 'crazy'." "Infact, he's a fucking fruitloop!" he added, laughing. |

Ah Anna, as sweet as a Mars Bar's smoo. Now, while Inside Sport magazine is normally quite reputable we just can't believe this quote they've attributed to our sweety: "I'm like the most expnsive item on a gourmet menu. People can look, then wonder about the taste and the sensuous delights of such a dish, but when it comes down to it, they simply can't afford such an expensive luxury" Well, maybe we can believe it.Actually, she's wrong. We wouldn't give a fuck what her lobster caviare flambéd with panda semen truffles costs. We'd pay to talk with someone who once smelt her. She'll win one day but who gives a fuck. |
