Angel Cabrera: Unvegan Hero

Victory!

All the buzz for this year’s Masters Golf Tournament revolves around some dude named Tiger.  I don’t see the big deal about him and it’s not like he’s done anything interesting recently anyway.  Luckily for sports fans, though, there is a much better man on tour.  He is none other than Angel Cabrera, the big winner of last year’s Masters.

I’m not terribly impressed by the fact that he won the Masters last year.  What’s much cooler to me is his plan for dinner tonight before the tournament.  Apparently it is a Masters tradition for the previous winner to whip up a dinner the night before the next tournament.  And since Cabrera is from Argentina, he has planned a meaty feast.  According to the menu on waggleroom.com, his meal is going to include such meaty delights as chorizo, blood sausage, filet mignon, flank steak and beef short ribs.

It’s almost enough to make me give up real sports and take up golf.

So for making golf into a desirable sport full of meat and getting all of his fellow players to eat that meat, Angel Cabrera, you are a true Unvegan Hero.
