Priceless: Mickelson offended by 'dumb question' about Masters

Phil Mickelson offered up a priceless response to a 'dumb' question by a MasterCard executive.
Maybe you were taught from an early age that there's no such thing as a stupid question. And, heck, that's probably true for children.
However, as we grow older, we realize there actually is such a thing as a stupid question.
During Wednesday's Pro-Am at Bay Hill, Phil Mickelson relayed a story to Golf Channel's Steve Sands about a particular question he received from no less than MasterCard Vice-President CoBrand Business Development and Strategy, Bob Glowasky. MasterCard sponsors the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
Glowasky -- evidently trying to make conversation with Mickelson as the two walked up the first fairway -- simply asked Lefty if he was looking forward to Augusta.
Much like the MasterCard commercials, Mickelson's reaction and response were... well... priceless!

You guys are probably Woods fans. Talk about throwing up, I want to throw up every time I see him. I was at the Pro-Am on Wednesday and Woods, along with his police escort, was about the only pro that didn't stop and give autographs. He makes me sick and now he's leading. Sometime I think the whole thing is rigged.
