Hoping for some Masters drama.

There are 94 players taking part in the Masters this weekend and everyone says Tiger Woods is going to pick up his first major tournament on his way to a true grand slam this year. We say yes...that's probably true...but we hope Phil Mickelson -- or anyone else for that matter -- can at least give Tiger a game and make him win it on Sunday.

We love all the majors, but the Masters is our favorite. It means the end of winter (unless you live in Cold Omaha) and the start of a new season.

Just for fun and obviously not for gambling purposes at all, here is how we think the leader board will shake out on Sunday -- these five guys will be there at the end:

1) Tiger Woods
2) Vijay Singh
3) Paddy Harrington
4)Geoff Ogilvy
5) Angel Cabrera

One final note -- we have no idea why, but we know for a fact that Jose Maria Olazabal will be on the leader board sometime during the first day or two. He's always there on Thursday and sometimes makes it into the top 20 come Saturday. He won the event once or twice back in the 1990's and he plays well at Augusta.

Phil Mickelson (we hope) could be in contention this weekend, but for some reason we aren't seeing him have much success. We have been wrong before, but this doesn't seem like Lefty's time.
