With the Lakers taking out the Magic and Kobe getting his non-Shaq title and Phil Jackson passing Red Auerbach for most coaching championships, the arguments have ensued. I think they're mostly idiotic but do bring up some worthwhile issues. Can you definitively convince everyone who knows that sport who is the best? Is Michael Jordan the best basketball player ever? More dominant than Wilt Chamberlain. Better all around than Magic Johnson. These are pretty strong statements. Is Phil or Red the greatest ever coach? Different eras, longer playoffs, easier to stockpile talent, more teams, less competition. Way, way too many ingredients. With the US Open ready to tee off Thursday in New York we get right into Jack Nicklaus versus Tiger Woods. I'll be honest, there is no way you can convince me Tiger is a better golfer than Jack. There is also no way you can convince me Jack is a better golfer than Tiger. Different equipment, courses tailored to hault Wood's dominance and the quality of player each squared off against week after week. It's something we'll discuss on today's program. Let's give away a combo package. $25 gift certificate to Giant Burger in Springfield and Taco Del Mar on Delta Highway North in Eugene, worth $15.

We know Tiger is 4 victories shy of Jack's major title count of 18. My question??? How many times did Nicklaus finish 2nd in the 4 Grand Slam events? Good luck!
