its precisely as the announcers said on 16 or 17. this is possibly the greatest golfer in history, and he doesnt have a clue how to put the clubface to the ball and hit it. I think thats a very telling statement.
This could be your best post ever, but then it's not your words and not 5 frickin' paragraphs long. :twisted:
even though you are a fellow eugenean gotta disagree here. Ive always admired people who can sum up things in a small amount of words, im not one of them, nor do i really wish to be. Not to compare myself to Chomsky, but CNN was asked in the 90's why Chomsky was never invited to speak and give his political opinions on the shows. CNN said "we dont have 20 minutes to discuss these issues, we have a few minutes". While golf obviously isnt as important nor as pressing and weighty as say chomsky discussing u.s. foreign policy, the general premise is something I adhere to.
I dont think anyone can sum up whats ailing and bothering and hindering Tiger is a few sentences. Even a few paragraphs. Thats the whole point. Thats why the people who considered him "back to normal" after Bay Hill were childish. Theres been alot going on with him for a long time. You cant sum that up, nor discuss it in a condensed manner, because it isnt condensed. He's got a million things going on with him.
The quote you liked, that the commentator made, is succinct and to the point, and i think its correct. But its just a starting point. The fact that Tiger can't play to his previous standards is a reality, and today he couldnt play at all. We can use hyperbole and wish him to be good again, or back, or winning again, or dominant again, the fact is, he isn't. Plus the commentators stated "wow" and "inexplicable". knowing just the basics of where his head is, the last couple years, i dont find it all that surprising, nor inexplicable. the reasons for his meltdown and inability to win are self evident. Divorce, public humiliation, shame, loss of his father, arrogance, boredom, losing ones way. If those things matter, and can cause one to act in a bizaare manners, then certainly the fact that he can;t play golf like he used to, or at all, is hardly surprising or inexplicable.
Don't you see though? You've made the same point half a dozen times or more in this thread but each time you use 250 words or more. Other posters might be more interested in what you say if you didn't repeat the same thing over and over. I know I rarely read your whole post because they are long winded and boring. Not to mention your examples are poor and really don't parallel golf.

i work on an army base and joined the golf club there last year. decent price. think i pay $79 a month, so $950 a year. costs me $2 every time i want to play 18, discounts on tournaments and other stuff. played only a few times last year, so this year i'm getting my moneys worth. been out twice and shot a 91 and a 92. just cant seem to break 90. so that's my goal this year. constantly shoot high 80s. getting a birdie in a round makes my day, and already had two. golf league starts on the 17th and i can't wait to play more with the chance to win money.
watched a bunch of the masters this weekend. glad to not see tiger in the running tomorrow. seeing him blow up and kick his club yesterday affirmed my hatred for him. just a big old whiner. can't stand him. rarely do you see anyone else pout, scream, toss their clubs when they miss a shot. nice to see lefty coming back with a great round today. that's the guy i want to win.
Looks like Tiger barely has a chance just to get into contention. Go Phil!

Wow! What a great 3rd round. I thought -5 was going to be lead until the last groups hit the back 9, then bam. It's great to hear those Augusta roars. The coverage was on another player when Phil made his eagle. You could hear the eagle screams in the background and you knew Phil had made his putt. So cool.
"I'm not good enough ... I don't have the thing I need to have," Garcia said in Spanish. His comments were translated for the Augusta Chronicle. "In 13 years I've come to the conclusion that I need to play for second or third place."
Garcia was asked if he meant in the Masters, and replied: "In any major."
