Augusta is special

Top ten reasons to love the Masters
Below are some of reasons everyone should watch the Masters.
10. The flowers-Wow is all that can be said. The same is true of the grass. Any of us who play in the yard are jealous.
9. Tiger Woods- No matter where he plays Tiger draws attention. No where is that more true than in Augusta even in 38th place like this year.
8. Tradition. There are so many things but one symbolizes the event. That is the ceremonial tee off of legends of the game. This year Arnie and Jack hit the first balls. Greats like Byron Nelson and Sam Snead have done it in the past. One can only imagine who might do it in the future. Awesome.
7. The crowds. You have to love what are affectionately known as the Masters roars. Probably the greatest display of fan behavior ever.
6. The underdog. Jack in 1986, Freddy this year, it just seems someone emerges each year as a crowd favorite. Usually it is someone who has faded into the history books until they make that trip down Magnolia Lane.
4. The green jacket. Probably the most recognizeable symbol of victory in any sport. Even the Stanley cup or Lombardi trophy do not match it.
3. History. A book on the history of the game could be written without leaving the historic grounds of Augusta National.
2. Jim Nantz and friends. Nothing in the world of sports broadcasting comes close to the job these guys do each April.
