By Sean Weber Posted on 06-15-2002 Bobby Jones. Probably no two words contain so much meaning at Baseball Sim Central. Bobby Jones is more than a pitcher with a losing record and an ERA above five and a half on a crappy West Coast team. Bobby Jones is a cultural archetype. He is the underachiever in every group, the guy who just doesn't seem to pull his own weight. Bobby also represents so much of what is wrong with baseball. You'd think that most Americans would identify with a portly nondescript fellow with a low eighties fastball and a wiffleball curve. But Bobby is not a Padre fans' favorite pitcher. He's not our version of Terry Mulholland. Instead, he's the guy who makes baseball games last four hours, the sole reason that baseball offense has exploded in the 1990s, and the reason Canada is cold in the winter. Or so I've been told. I'm sure by now almost everyone is familiar with Bobby's pitching style and results. But if you aren't, here are his statistics from the past two years, both of them with the Padres.

http://www.hippopress.com/film/bob040513.html
Jesus hits the fairway as James Caviezel plays golf great Bobby Jones in the dull biopic Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius.
Ah, our Bobby Jones (Caviezel) is a bonny lad. So much so that when, in 1936 on the way to the Olympics, he stops in Scotland to play at St. Andrews course, the whole town turns out to watch him swing. This first swing on this ancient course brings us back, of course, to a young Bobby growing up in Georgia. A sickly child, Bobby was prevented from playing baseball with the other children and took up golf instead. Sneaking onto the nearby country club course to watch a shipped-in Scot teach the gentlemen how to golf, Bobby eventually learned to hit the hell out of a ball and became something of a prodigy.
But Jones is driven and continues to fight for the titles, even against the fierce competition of other greats such as Walter Hagen (Jeremy Northam).
Like a golfer strolling pleasant grounds while playing his 18 holes, Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius passes through interesting historical times but is, ultimately, a good movie spoiled.

May 31 Bobby Jones wins the British Amateur open July 2 Following his victory in the British Open, golfer Bobby Jones is the guest of honor at a New Yok ticker type parade. July 12 Golfer Bobby Jones wins the U. S. Open September 27 Bobby Jones completes the first Grand Slam in golf history by winning the U. S. Amateur Open at the Merion Golf Club in Pennsylvania. March 22 Play begins at the Augusta National Invitational Tournment, later the Masters. City of Augusta, Georgia December 18 Bobby Jones, 69, dies, Atlanta, Georgia
Perhaps the greatest golfer ever, Robert Tyre ("Bobby") Jones was named for his grandfather, a successful businessman whose general store was the largest north of Atlanta. His father, Colonel Robert P. Jones bought a summer house in Dekalb County and Bobby Jones learned to play golf as a youngster at the East Lake Country Club. He also was interested in baseball.
During his formative years, Jones proved to be an able competitor. When he was nine he won the Atlanta Athletic Association crown, and during a regional amateur competition he was asked (by his opponent's father) to come the 1916 U. S. Amateur Open.
In this, Jones's first major tournament, he was defeated in the quarterfinal round at Merion Cricket Club near Philadelphia. Yet Jones had made an impression on many who attended the match. His second major tournament (1919 U. S. Amateur) was lost during the final round. He competed each year after 1919 until he retired in 1930, winning in 1924-1928 and 1930. Out of 51 individual matches he only lost 8.

... is being (unnecessarily) re-made, according to The Hollywood Reporter via Entertainment Weekly Billy Bob Thornton and screenwriters Glenn Ficarra and John Requa like movies with the word ''Bad'' in the title. The ''Bad Santa'' trio's next project, according to the Hollywood Reporter, is a remake of ''The Bad News Bears'' for Paramount, the studio behind the 1976 film and its two sequels. Thornton, currently on screen in ''The Alamo,'' would follow up his ''Santa'' role as a boozy department store Kris Kringle by stepping into the cleats of Walter Matthau, who starred in ''Bears'' as a beer-chugging, cantankerous coach of a team of Little League misfits. The Bad News Bears does baseball better than any movie I've ever seen. The Bad News Bears Go to Japan does it worse than any move I've ever seen. Off the top of my head, Eight Men Out is my No. 2 baseball movie, with The Natural, Bull Durham and Field of Dreams

By Scott Galupo
Here's one way to look at Bobby Jones' golfing career: It wasn't even a career; it was a summer hobby.
He never made a dime (although he competed in professional tournaments) and quit competing at 28.
(none)
Rowdy Herrington's stately, reverential biopic, "Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius," makes much hay out of Jones' amateur status. It could have been called "For Love of the Game" if that weren't already the name of a terrible Kevin Costner baseball movie.
"Bobby Jones" isn't nearly as bad as that.
If you can't stand watching golf on TV, well, you're probably not interested in Bobby Jones anyway.
Jones, of course, was the Tiger Woods of his era, a child phenom and dominant competitor who, to this day, is the only golfer to have won all four major championships in a single year.
In the 1920s, the U.S. and British amateur tournaments were considered majors, along with the U.S. and British opens. There wasn't a PGA Championship. Nor was there a Masters tournament: Jones hadn't yet founded the Augusta National Golf Club.

Jones says he's under control
Walks don't shake lefty's confidence
April 14, 2004 A mechanic would be useful if it were indeed mechanics that led to Bobby Jones walking seven batters in his last two outings. But it really wasn't that. ADVERTISEMENT A psychologist might be useful to help him deal with the fact that 37 of his last 56 pitches have been balls. But really, Jones's control problems haven't been dramatic. Some pitches, as Jones himself put it, "are missing by centimeters," a reference to both the umpires' strike zone and his location. No, instead he'll opt for self-help in the form of positive reinforcement. He knows he'll get some kind words from teammates and pitching coach Dave Wallace. But the reality of his situation is this: He is likely the 12th man on a 12-man pitching staff right now. Frank Castillo has yet to pitch, so he may be slightly ahead by default. The Sox have two other lefties: veteran Alan Embree, who is very secure in his spot, and youngster Mark Malaska, who so far has been the great find of '04. Manager Terry Francona said after yesterday's rainout that he expects to stay with 12 pitchers for the time being, but it's unclear how long that is. It might depend on when Byung Hyun Kim comes off the disabled list. It might depend on whether the Sox bring up lefty Tim Hamulack from Pawtucket once he becomes eligible Saturday.
