It's all gambling

I read an interesting article about Phil Mickelson. He had a horrible year in 2003 mostly because he almost lost his wife in childbirth. After going through a terrible year he refocused on the mental aspect of the game. This year he's finished in the top ten 7 out of his 8 starts. With Tiger playing poorly, I thought I'd see the odds on Phil. He was going off at 7-1 on Wednesday. Though I use the account for betting football I decided to throw $10 on Phil for the hell of it. I wish I had bet my entire bankroll.

I won $70 like that. I bet football for the first 15 weeks of the year and only made a $35 profit.
