Despite her best efforts, Natalie Gulbis still isn’t quite a household name for some golf fans. At least not with correct pronunciation.
The other night, a few of us were playing some video golf on a friend’s gaming system. We scrolled through the pros to choose our players, and when it was my turn, a friend recommended that I choose “Natalie Goobless.” So he knew who she was, I guess he just thought she didn’t have any goobs. We had a good laugh at that.

Incidentally, I chose Cristie Kerr. I thought this friend would have known I would, since before he became known simply as friend and Vito’s baby daddy, he played the role of my boyfriend for years. But then I guess that makes sense.
Speaking of Natalie, I actually watched a terrible television show just to see how she was on it. I wasted my time because The Celebrity Apprentice gave her all of about 30 seconds of screen time in favor of showing Donald Trump’s embarrassing crush on Dennis Rodman for an hour or more. I swear, he’s in love!

Mr. Trump and Mr. Rodman definitely have a “bromance” going on. It is embarrassing. Ms. Gulbis is not on enough and sure didn’t seem happy to be wearing that Super Zappos outfit.
Glad your back!

oh – I don’t know about that – I’m a big fan of her Goobs.

Natalie doesn’t get the attention because they are looking for entertainment/freak show. She doesn’t fit the bill on that.

Natalie Gulbis will win her share of tournaments. What I’d like to see is more young American girls on the tour? It’s being dominated by the Asian countries.
