I like the Masters, it’s an entertaining golf tournament, and along with Opening Day in baseball, signifies to me that winter is over.

But it’s just a golf tournament. Not a religious experience as people like Jim Nantz would have you believe. I get more and more creeped out every time I hear him say, “A tradition unlike any other” in an almost-aroused voice during a CBS promo.

It’s just a golf tournament – at a course that did not allow an African American member until 1990 and still does not allow women.

Say it with me.

It’s just a golf tournament.
