Today marks the opening round of the 2008 Masters in Augusta, Georgia but golf fans everywhere have been unable pry their attention away from Chicago where final preparations are being made at Cog Hill where the 2008 NFL DDC will be held in May.
“Tiger Woods has been picked to win the green jacket again so all I care about is how the rough is growing at Cog Hill,” said George Miller of Monterey, California. “Its thickness will the key factor in determining the outcome of the DDC.”
Course conditions have been the focus of many fans’ attention but NFL DDC members have noticed an increase in paparazzo and hangers-on in recent weeks.
“It used to be I could go to the grocery store without much of a following but now every time I have to pick up a gallon of milk I have hundreds of people clamoring for autographs and dozens of flash bulbs popping in my face,” said Mike Roush. “All I want is to pick up my dry cleaning without having to sign a baby’s forehead.”
The increased attention that surrounds the NFL DDC players leading up to the event is not new and some players have made plans in preparation of this phenomenon. Michael Ostrander has been in seclusion at an undisclosed location in Florida to escape the crowds.
“I had tried to lay low in Greektown this past weekend but I was not safe even there. After trying to relax at the Greektown Casino, I had to leave in a hurry under the protection of four or five security guards for my own safety.” Ostrander said.
