Most people are projecting what they want to see onto them. Mickelson is the "peoples'" player? The guy has a private jet, probably sees his kids about four days a month (when he tells the nanny to bring them by), and lives a lifestyle most folks can't imagine. The only PGA player who really deserves appreciation is Kirk Triplett, because of the enormous work he's done with child adoption advocacy.woundedducktag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-1128642755303219162005-10-06T16:52:00.000-07:002005-10-06T16:52:00.000-07:00phil is a phat david simmsphil is a phat david simmsdrcjdtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347482.post-1128344825121165602005-10-03T06:07:00.000-07:002005-10-03T06:07:00.000-07:00As a South Africa, I am a very proud fan of Ernie ...As a South Africa, I am a very proud fan of Ernie Els.
