Default Anyone Tired of Tiger Yet?

Is anyone tired of seeing Tiger Woods crying yet? When he won the British Open on Sunday, all we saw were pictures and video of him breaking down whilst giving his speech. Am I the only one thinking that this crap is played out? The guy died, like two months ago!

I understand that he took some time off, and that his first time back would be news. But wasn’t his first tournament back on Father’s Day weekend? I’m thinking that someone wanting to purge the emotional demons of his father dying would pick something less public that Father’s Day for God’s sake!

Methinks Tiger (and the networks) knew what he was doing, trying to drum up ratings.

(rest of rant: blog post)

Everyone now thinks I’m just an insensitive lout. But, I really am just railing out against the hero worship in sports, and how the lives of celebrities mean more to us than the lives of the people around us (see the pilot bit in blog post).

I don't golf not that I haven't tried it and I didn't even suck but man what a long game. I would rather be in the gym. Maybe when I'm an old guy I might develop a passion for golf but until then. Don't care.

Good luck!

I cannot wait until golf and baseball disappear from ESPN so I can watch my football.
