    Tiger removed himself from Ryder Cup consideration.

    imalive - serious hypothetical. Ryder Cup is down to the last match. US needs a win. Tiger is playing as the last single. What do you do? Hope he sticks it to birdie and win or say "Fuck Tiger, pull it OB and give it to the Euros"

    the latter, for sure :))

    Wow...that's fucked up. I have plenty of sports hate, but don't think I'd ever root against a guy when he's playing for the US.
    I could give two shits about what country a golfer is from.


    I'm not saying you should root for a guy because he's from the US. But you say you would root against the US in the Ryder Cup if Tiger was involved....that's crazy to me.

    Haha, I like that he went for that 57 and gave it a ride. Shame he missed the par putt though.

    that's not exactly what I said.....I would not necessarily root against the U.S.....but if tiger was involved in the deciding match, I would root for the motherfucker to choke like a dog....hopefully to lose 9 and 8 or something similar. :D

    I think you can tell a lot from how people handle adversity. When tiger was winning, he was all smiles with those professionally enhanced white teeth of his. even while winning, he could be a dick to his "fans" and often displayed terrible manners on the course. as a dude who learned golf at, what, 4 years old, he certainly knows slamming and kicking clubs is not part of the game. I don't watch a ton of golf, but I don't know if I've ever seen another pro kick his clubs. also, even when winning, he struck me as a phony motherfucker ala arod or big papi.

    after the faithful thanksgiving night, he took his phoniness to another level. at his confessional presser, he said he had strayed from his "core values." I about puked in my mouth. Core values? Please. The only god he worships is himself. and his promise of better course behavior? Haven't seen it.

    fuck tiger.

    so it's his demeanor and personality basically?

    no, because Barry was an unapologetic asshole. He knew he was one and he didn't hide behind some phony persona. the worldwide media slurps the hell out of asshole tiger but made sure everyone knew what an asshole bonds was (and much of that was bullshit....like his dugout fight with jeff kent where kent was getting on a teammate and barry told him to STFU).

    plus, his on field behavior was better than tiger's. he earned very few ejections in his 21 year career....about the only fight I ever remember him being in was when an opposing first baseman called him a "motherfucker."

    so, no juggler, I'm not admitting anything.

    They are all babies. Nothing is ever a professional golfers fault. Mud ball, camera, caddie, conditions, course, etc.

    Bubba cries and swears, Sergio cries constantly, Rory breaks clubs, half of them smoke on the course. They all act like babies. Tiger has the camera on him constantly. I just wish they would call themselves pussies out loud when they leave a 6 foot putt short, like I do.

    i dunno man. you seem pretty selective in your reasoning. bonds watching his home runs leave the park literally every time before even starting his extra slow gallop to first base is pretty much an asshole move to me. and he did that his entire career, no matter the score. i went to school with a kid whose dad was the expos pitching coach in the 90's (when pedro was there) and he would tell us how much of a dick bonds was behind the scenes too.

    and you know what? if tiger was/is an asshole but put on a good face in public---i say good for him. it helped increase golf's popularity enormously....meanwhile bonds' curmudgeon self roamed the field at a time when baseball really could have benefited from their best player not being someone everyone disliked.

    i'd bet dollars to donuts if bonds wasn't on your favorite team, you'd probably hate him too!

    No. I've only taken up golf in the last couple years since I moved out west. I went to the elementary school across the street and went to the bc open when I was little a couple times. Long before it was flooded and redone.

    Ah shit. Yeah, I completely forget about the flood. Yeah, my old man took me to the bc open every year growing up. Good stuff. Played the course once when I was okay. Don't remember what I shot.

    well, duh....that goes without saying ;)

    of course it's a personality thing with tiger....even I will admit he used to be a good golfer.

    also, what about the rumor that he's tighter than the bark on a tree?

    I'm a tiger fan..but gotta admit the press conference after the "faithful thanksgiving night" was one of the creepiest and pussiest things I have seen any person or pro athlete do. "I am addicted to sex.. I need help..need to find my budist roots" lol what a joke.. His pr staff is usually pretty solid but that was just a mistake.

    thanks for bumping this, norm.

    I also wanted to add I immensely enjoyed Rory talking about tiger in the past tense on Fallon. tiger wanted to rip him apart with his steroid muscles!

    and you know what? if tiger was/is an asshole but put on a good face in public---i say good for him. it helped increase golf's popularity enormously.

    Phil has done it his whole career...especially in the past 10-15 years. He's apparently a real bear off the course.

    Tiger got rid of Foley. Funny it comes the day after Mahan wins. I can't begin to say if it was a good or bad move, but he didn't look at all comfortable with the driver, or putter for that matter.

    Too bad Butch Harmon is too busy coaching Chumlee.

    Great move from tiger..I expect butch to make a heavy push and I think he'll go back..The power fade never seemed right under foley..and I don't buy that tigers swing of old caused all these injuries.. He needs butch.. Butch don't need him but would love to put his name next to tigers comeback.. They are both egomaniacs.

    Butch ain't happening. Can't see either of them going back down that road.

    Edit: And officially

    “No I would not and he’s not going to call and ask,” Harmon said. “I don’t think he needs a swing coach. If I were advising Tiger I’d tell him, ‘You’re the greatest player that ever lived, just go to the range and hit shots.’”
