A Tradition Unlike Any Other

One of my favorite sports weekends of the year kicked off on Thursday with flowers in full bloom, green jackets, and "Amen Corner." As Jim Nantz will tell you, it's a tradition unlike any other. The Masters tournament moves into high gear today and concludes tomorrow. Augusta National golf course opened in 1933, but there was probably no better place to be then on the backside in 1986 - 25 years ago. It was on that afternoon that the Golden Bear rallied and overtook Seve Ballesteros to become the oldest Masters champion at the age of 46.

The video is not very good, but I still love to listen to the commentary and the fact that the highlights are to one of the best songs of the 80's, that doesn't hurt either.
