Slim Pickin's

With the Caps' Development Camp now over, there's slim pickin's for fans looking to watch hockey players in competition. If you're jonesing, and just can't bring yourself to watch the HBO doc "Do You Believe in Miracles?" On Demand for that eleventh time, Grant Fuhr is in second place going into today's final round of the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship. NBC's live coverage begins at 3:00.

Other pucks players on the links: Brett Hull (10th place), Mario Lemieux (12th place), Pierre Larouche (15th place), Joe Sakic (24th place), and Mike Eruzione (53d place). Last year's winner, Jack Wagner (better known as the dreamy Frisco Jones or more recently, the corrupt Dr. Peter Burns) is in 8th place.

Fore For Eighteen

You've never heard of Bryan Toth. Long-story-short, he's a 33-year-old amateur golfer in British Columbia and he'll get his shot against the pros this weekend when the Canadian Tour makes a stop at his home course.

Why is Toth's story of (admittedly minimal) interest to Caps fans? Because on Thursday, Matt Pettinger will be caddying for him.

Hopefully a year from now Princess will be too tired to caddy in this tournament, having just finished up his hockey season.
