Before you pull the lever on your golf plans, don't forget that Sunday is Valentine's Day. According to the good folks at Wikipedia, "the holiday is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD." It is traditionally "a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting gifts of flowers, confectionery, jewelry, and golf equipment."
Let's face it, unless you're a hopeless romantic like Matt Miller, you could probably use a couple of gift ideas for Valentine's Day. Remember, few thing say "I love you!" better than a new Titanium driver for your beloved. Satin sheets? Who needs 'em when you can give her a new Vokey wedge with satin finish? For the last-minute shopper with a sweet tooth, there's always the improvised "Tiger" Whitman's Sampler, where you put a Nike One golf ball in each of the little compartments and eat all the chocolates yourself.
Men of Las Colinas, I beseech ye, man up! Do not let this garden variety, estrogen-fueled, bling-inducing pseudo-holiday get in the way of your golf plans for next Sunday! Keep your priorities in order, just like the nice German fellow in the attached video.
