And recently I was talking to one of them who is an avid golfer (he plays quite a few rounds every week [no exaggeration] and gets in a round on every vacation he takes) and I asked him what they (i.e. Scots, and Brits in general) thought of John Daly when he rose to fame and his response was, "...breathe of fresh air."<br /><br />He said that they loved him. He played his game without pretending to be anything he wasn't.<br /><br />Granted, he is not a one man Gallup poll, but I thought that you might be interested.DougRisknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-21074184164009027352011-07-03T12:46:06.138-07:002011-07-03T12:46:06.138-07:00Steve,

If that feminized trash-talking Afro-Briton flop-cheat had won, it might have been spun as the renaissance of boxing, and we would be hearing about it. Vlad was too easy on him, btw. He permitted him to have his moment in the sun (and half the take), apparently out of charity. I don't even think Vlad trained for this one. Instead, he shoulda pulverized the palooka.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-72620739573654436372011-07-03T04:24:39.542-07:002011-07-03T04:24:39.542-07:00'Ya ken' is Scots for 'you know?'

Which would sound to non-Scots ears something like "maybuh <b>ya ken</b> doo 't!" By back-formation, the bolded words above would be "ken ya" (example: "Ha! Ya canna, ken ya?") After all, don't Scots observe the "can you?" "do you?" "is it?" formation? I believe all English-speakers do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-65748395399185794922011-07-02T16:37:18.396-07:002011-07-02T16:37:18.396-07:00OT: Klitschko wins again but there is muted covera...OT: Klitschko wins again but there is muted coverage in USA media.
