just watched his first 2 holes...looked pretty good...makes me wish i was there again :(
You have been? That is outstanding. I have always wanted to go but never pulled the trigger because of the $$.
yeah my folks sent my brother and i last year for my 40th birthday...4 greatest days of my life...i wish i could afford to go every year
That is awesome! The sporting event I have always said is the one I have to go to before I die. I looked into it last year and between the passes (which I have no idea how you got) and accomodations, it was just way to much.
I hear it is unlike anything else, smaller crowds, incredible course, everything...
I think a lot of people do. I know the companies that dropped his ass as a spokesperson did. If they didn't it wouldn't be such a big story. Look at Jeter, as you said. People love the guy and he gets more ass than Eldrick. No one cares because he's not married, he's not faking an image just to score bank.
Many young kids who enter the game of golf look to him as a hero. I don't think parents would want their kids to worship at the alter of a guy who is two faced and banged around on his pregnant wife.
I personally have never like the guy. He's always been a totally fake douche. He's had such a totally shitty attitude on the course. It's despicable. I followed him around at the 2001 Phoenix Open and the guy was an asshole. Swearing, throwing clubs. All this when there were kids were following him around.

yeah my sister made all the arrangements...she found this guy that has a hospitality house down the street from augusta national and he provides the badges as well as a nice place to hang out before and after the tourney
everything you've heard about it is true...every golf fan should experience it once...and i'm glad i did!

Companies sell an image and I don't think banging porn stars is one they want to be aligned with so I get that. I am saying from a fans perspective. I can agree with the whole kid thing but I am not a kid or parent, so I dont really care. Was he wrong, of course, but it is none of my business. I can promise you, he is not the only player on the PGA cheating on his wife.
I hear you with jeter and agree, Tiger should not have been married.
The Tiger Woods Foundation does a whole lot for kids and that can't be discounted either.
He says his behavior on the course will change and that will be a good thing, for him and the game.
Sometimes life takes a little bit of growing up.

That is outstanding. I have heard about similar houses like that. Not a bad idea. I am definitely going to have to make it happen sooner rather than later.
if i were tiger woods i'd tell the media, sponsors, and the people against me to go suck a dick some place.
then i'd retire as soon as possible.
i'd then build my own golf coarse and never talk to the media ever again.
however, when the media flies over my golf corse i'd for sure give them the finger while smoking some badass weed as im driving my golf cart.

I like your thinking, but can he win his 18th major first?

I have admit this guy is good on a golf coarse in 2nd -4 first round. I wonder what the outrage would be if he was having a good time with men?
Oh it looks like he'll make the cut, I went out on a limb.

Tiger's only 2 back... I'm not counting him out.
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
I hope he wins. Only 2 behind after 2 rounds.Watch out he is gonna win. He is the best ever

why are golfers always dressed up all nice and shit?
very well groomed. (i've never seen a pro golfer with facial hair)
to me they are very pretentious. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-qTf2ddN3I

I really hope anyone wins besides Tiger.
I can't stand that guy and I haven't even before the shit came out with his wife.
Why don't you like him, I know you can't like everybody/athlete in every sport. Your definately going to dislike some people. I know people that never liked Gretzky. I could never figure it out. He is the best player the sport has seen, you have to give credit where credit is due, He is simply the best at golf.
Hope he wins today, would be a monster comeback and just nother record to add to already amazing collection, he never won a major when trailing after 54 holes.

its tradition, one of my very good friends feels about golf, the way i feel about music and art. he craves. anyways, years ago, I went to the country club here, several with him, and alot of courses require that dress. the collared shirt is required. Cant say I enjoyed getting dressed up, but thats the deal with golf, same with tennis, its very prim and proper. very wealth based. I think i played a few rounds with my long hair and beard, but ithink i always had a collared shirt at the country clubs.
oddly enough i held the scorecard for an official pga event here in eugene in 1999. pretty surreal. tiger wasnt there though

i wouldnt count tiger out. thats what he thrives on. the same way jordan, or kobe or james thrives on people saying "oh they arent gonna win", tiger lives and excels when that stuff is said about him. i have told this story several times, but since my good friend is so into golf, i remember years ago, 6th grade doing a report on tiger who had just won his first major, the masters in 1997 was it? anyways, i remember tiger back then saying "i am gonna beat nicklaus' 18 majors". We all knew he was good, but how many people actually thought he would do it? the guy is just a few shy of 18. thats unbelieveable. incredible. i think tiger is a jerk frankly. a total idiot. he obviously has major personal problems. but golf wise, he is the best to ever play. even if he was to quit as I originally said, right after this masters, win or lose, he still would be considered the best of all time, or maybe 2nd best of all time since he wouldnt have the 19 majors. for being so young, its mind boggling all he has accomplished. thats sort of what i hinted at months ago. that, when you are considered the best in the world at something, maybe the best of all time, where do you go from there? Jordan, kobe, all these guys need, physically need the challenge of winning new things, of breaking records, and my contention was that nicklaus 18 no longer meant anything to him, or he started to tire and get bored of golf. i stand by that.

thanks
I had an experience once where i parked my Kenworth 18 wheeler tractor trailer on the country club tennis court in Long Beach, California. I was getting bleachers and scaffolding loaded onto my flatbed trailer. The tennis court was full of these tall ass bleachers and ppl tearing them down for transport. The tennis court was completely covered in these 3 inch screws. I was so pissed. I was on the phone callin everybody involved. If I get a flat tire I'm gonna flip. I told the dude in charge nicely how I felt about having me park on all these screws. Next thing you know he had about 3 dudes pickin up screws. I also helped. Never did have a flat on that trip. Thank God.
I really hope anyone wins besides Tiger.

Just because he is the best does not mean you have to like him.
I always cheer for the underdog.
Cheering for the best is kind of easy don't you think.
I don't like Tiger for his temper tantrums on the course.
He acts like a child sometimes.

Just wondering, have you ever played golf before? I don't think he throughs tantrums out there. He gets frustrated, I have never heard him swear, the worst he ends up saying is "God Damm It", and that isn't that bad. I've been there when playing golf, you get frustrated, could only think what the pressure of the Masters does to someone, when he expects nothing but the best.
To me a tantrum, is snapping clubs, throughing them in a pond, thats a a tantrum

just because you don't hear him curse doesn't mean he's not doing it. all golfers curse its just that tiger seems to do it the loudest around people and kids. anyways it's good to see tiger back on the course and lefty winning after all the shit he's been through. i expect tiger to play only the majors and the ryder cup for the rest of his career.
