Not Nice

The nation's sporting press is wrapping up its coverage in Newport today. Most have been thrilled with a week in Rhode Island's prettiest locale, even if it lasted one day too long.

Some writers have held back on the difference in physical stature between Annika Sorenstam and Pat Hurst. Others, however, have not. Consider this passage from a Sports Illustrated.com missive by writer E.M. Swift, which was posted on Saturday night in preview of Sunday's 36-hole marathon....``The 36-hole final doesn't bode well for Hurst, an unmade bed of a woman who doesn't seem to be in training for a marathon, or perhaps even a jog around the block. Her best hope is to play 18 and summon her remaining reserves to do a rain dance.''

Wow. Nice guy.
