I caught the tail end (sorry) of the conference. Bizarre.
So is he going to play in the Masters or not?
If he wanted to "look good" he would NOT, but I doubt his ego will allow him to miss a major
Invited audience? No questions? Call it the Not Me Culpa.
I do not understand him. If he would drop the script and be a person most would forgive him, as we are all human. Look at Daly...the dude is a train wreck and 95% of the golf watching public is pulling for him. Trying to control everything and looking like a robot reading a script is only going to make things worse.
If Tiger would only pull for himself, he wouldn't be in this mess.
Golf clap.
What is an STD spread by Tiger Woods?
Doesn't Buddhism seek the answer to "What is the sound of one hand 'clapping'?"
WOW, did not realize just how well I teed that up for you. Nicely done.
If you can set me up as well with a golf ball, you'd be my hero.
I will meet you at the range tomorrow around noon if you would like...
...so this kind of thing has moved from public parks and bus stations to the world of golf.
Simmons' take: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/100219
Normal rules don't apply to celebrities.
Interesting...Edith: It's illegal to be married to two people at the same time, Dewey!
And, Dan Jenkins drops the motherfucking soup bone: http://www.golfdigest.com/golf-tours-news/2010-02/golf-tiger-jenkins-0218.
For all of the Tiger idolaters out there, it must have been like finding out that ice cream sundaes give you gonorrhea.
I could give a fuck about Tiger Woods one way or another but the Simmons piece and the Jenkins piece both come across as envious and/or wounded jocksniffers blatantly basking in schadenfreude. Fuck, Jenkins even cops to it - Woods snubbed his requests for access and so now he's gloating over the guy's public misfortune. Fucking pathetic.
I get where you are coming from...I really do. But if the people I worked for went out of their way to make sure they made my job as hard as possible I would be thrilled the day they had to not just take a bite of, but eat their whole shit sandwich.
I don't think that denying interview requests is equivalent to being deliberately antagonistic or obfuscatory.But I definitely find gloating over the misfortune of others, no matter the surrounding situation, an ugly impulse.
Do I think that excuses Tiger for being a slimeball? Hell no. But I don't think he should be crucified or judged for not letting America inside his trousers for the last 10 years.
He wanted to present himself in the best light and make himself marketable. Many of us probably don't do anything all that different at our jobs. Do I think that excuses Tiger for being a slimeball? Hell no. But I don't think he should be crucified or judged for not letting America inside his trousers for the last 10 years.
Jenkins a "wounded jocksniffer?" Interesting. Read him.
I think Tiger should start hanging out with guys like Magic Johnson, Charlie Sheen, and Tom Sizemore, that way by contrast, Tiger would seem a little less depraved.
I laughed at that one. I guess Bud Shrake was a jock sniffer too.
Texans. I should have known.
did you sniff and chortle as you said this?
Just a rueful shake of the head. Why, do I strike you as a chortler?
i thought patricians all chortled. i could be wrong.
Most likely, he sniffed and adjusted his monocle.
I think patricians cluck and tut. Anything heartier than a snicker is definitely plebeian.Reminds me, in case my effete snob bonafides were on the wane I would like to give an enthusiastic recommendation to Monocle Magazine. Two parts travel, one part design, one part entrepreneurship, one part fashion, zero part celebrity fuckwittery... If GQ and Vanity Fair bore you fucking senseless take a look at Monocle.
what's a tut? i have heard of tit and tat but not tut. unless you meant the King.
I think that a hale fellow well met is the sort that would chortle.
Doubled it is an interjection of mild reproach. Very useful to the patrician who is more reproachful than average.
... If GQ and Vanity Fair bore you fucking senseless take a look at Monocle.
Huh? It is impossible to be bored by something you spend zero time with. I'd rather poke myself in the eye with a sharp stick than either read or wear a monocle.
Wearing a monocle is a great way to avoid poking yourself in the eye with a sharp stick. At least in that eye.
ah, yes. "tut tut, my good man. white shoes in November?"
You know, seriously, as much as you travel I would think that Monocle would be interesting and useful to you. But I suppose it takes time to catch up on all the back issues of Soldier of Fortune.
PETA tries to jump on the Tiger attention wagon
NEVER. A gentleman may wear white shoes - selectively, please - between Memorial Day and Labor Day.Unless you have retired to Flahrida and wear them with plaid shorts and black socks.
There's a snippet of film of a group of German staff officers after the surrender at Stalingrad that shows one of them wearing a monacle. I've thought of how particularly "welcome" the Soviets may have made his stay in a Siberian work camp.
Where do shockingly loud plaid golf pants fall?
http://sports.espn.go.com/golf/news/story?id=4950137Gatorade drops Tiger after learning his thirst for sex was unquenchable, even with Citrus Cooler.
What's he have left? Just Nike?
What we already knew...
I actually did a Tiger Woods fist pump when I read that in the elevator this morning.
What was the lucky lady's name?
So glad Tiger is returning to the Masters so now we can all finally move on.Oh, and this.
In related news, Sandra Bullock has left her husband after he cheated on her with some porn star that has tattoos over 90% of her body.
I know someone who knows Sandra Bullock...
Tyler Durden told me so.
wwtdd.com quote of the day:"According to Forbes, Bullock is worth 85 million dollars, so all this retard James had to do was have sex with Sandra Bullock forever and he’d get to split 85 million dollars. If anyone has ever been this fucking stupid before, the government has kept it under wraps, so as not to embolden our enemies"
I'm certain this makes me a 12th level ghey, but I don't find Sandra Bullock even a little bit attractive.
The Oscars botox disaster was the first time I ever didn't."A Time to Kill" is underrated from the perspective of both Ashley Judd and Sandra Bullock looking INSANELY hot.
Demolition Man. Seriously.
I have heard that Bullock is even more beautiful in person and very nice, to boot. This James fellow doesn't seem to think very well, at least with the big head.
