Sportsmeat

All around the country this morning, people are thinking: Who the hell would have thought Zach Johnson would win the Masters? Well, apparently Budds did. Budds' inspired pick of Johnson led a blowout of the First Sportsmeat Masters pool. In fact, Johnson could have missed the cut and Budds still would have cruised to the win.

The victory is Budds' second Sportsmeat title, following his impressive victory in the overall fall football poo,l and gives him as many major titles as Greg Norman and John Daly, and one more than Davis Love III, Fred Couples and Jana Novotna.

Here are the final results. Points earned are next to the names of the golfers, and their finish is in parentheses:
