Free Grass

By Aaron S. Birk and Alexis Seccombe

street talk Here it is again, another weekend of mayhem at Pebble Beach. All this land for the game and none for the dogs. Is it any wonder people think it could be put to some alternative use? We hit the streets and kennels to find out what people think.

Could you take Tiger Woods at miniature golf? Absolutely not! I have a 7-year-old daughter. I''m not sure I could take her.

Who''s your favorite celebrity golfer? Oh, the one that has the most fun--Bill Murray.

Do you think full-contact golf would be fun to watch? I don''t know. I think the XFL will pretty much cover all our violent sporting needs.

What

could the land for golf courses be used for? Some sort of wind-powered energy source. In Japan, if there is land and it''s unproductive, they make you pay through the schnoz.

Could you take Tiger Woods at miniature golf? I''d give him a run for his money, I think, but not for very long.

If you owned a private jet, would you buzz the 18th green? Absolutely! I''d come in low and fast and coordinate with someone at the tournament.

What would you use golf course land for? I''d probably mark all the trees.

Is there a great thing about golf tournaments? Yes, all the schnauzers, shitsus and collies to romance.

Could you take Tiger Woods? I could definitely chase him down and give him a handicap. I''m not all that great at putting, you know.
