Bethpage Black: The Party Starter

Last week, I recommended everyone to check out the great profile piece on Jim Furyk in Golf World magazine.  Hopefully you did, but if not, do so now.  Anyway, the Furyk piece was the cover story.  It talked quite a bit about how Furyk may not look it, but he is quite the dry witted comedian. 

So, naturally, Golf World embellished that in the cover photo that NiceBallz got to their mailbox.

I could not help but think that maybe this was the inspiration for the photo shoot.

I thought of that commercial as well after I wrote the post up hehe…love that Conan bit.

I do have to wonder how much razzing JF has possibly taken…

Everyone says he’s actually funny. But not Craig Ferguson jump around funny. Actually, more like Conan timing humor funny.

OH YEAH ! The Drew Carey Show was one of my favorites – loved Mr Wick – can’t believe I didn’t know his name.

right

Yep, he’s allegedly deadpan funny…which the article captured in absolutely NO WAY whatsoever. Not even an anecdote from oneo f his buddies re: something he said that’s an example of it.
