Marucci's Re-naming As Walker Cup Captain Met With Mixed Apathy

Such exciting news I can hardly contain myself. But, Buddy Marucci does bring several key attributes to the job: a willingness to pretend that he likes people like Walter Driver and Fred Ridley, a huge chip on his shoulder and of course, the deep-seeded belief that there is no more important job in the world.

Frankly, I'm much more concerned about him continuing on as Merion's Green Committee chair. He could inflict a lot more damage that way than with some negative influence on the committee's Captain picks.
