Bad Annika. Shame on you! Go to your room.
...So anyway, Dick Cheney walks in with his lawyer buddy and says "Hi
Jack!"..... TSA jumps him, cuffs him, then the CIA jumps in and beats him
senseless, dragging him away to hand him over to the FBI, just as 5-iron
shows up with an amazing solution to the dilemma. In lieu of shooting the
lawyer, they opt for a game of rock-scissors-paper. W signs off on it, but,
due to his best of five, the one-tie/all-tie rule, no decision is ever
reached, and everyone lives happily ever after.... well, except for the
store owner, whose records were seized, then accidentally lost, by NASA.
Later, he backed into a mounted set of buckhorns. Last we heard, he finds
work as an undercover, not-so-baso-profundo, but this cannot be confirmed.

He seems to have cooled the potty mouth a bit as of late and the
announcers even pointed out he just seems to accept the bad along with
the good and move on. Actually, that's a very bad thing for all the
rest of those guys out on tour. Granted he didn't havve too many
opportunities to go-way-off in his last 3 starts... :)
Also, another Tiger slam could be in the making...

Three swing rebuilds in 10 years with 12 majors and 51 total wins, I
would expect that there might be a swing rebuild this off-season to keep
up with the 2 majors a year streak. Only 3 and 1/2 years to go to beat
Jack's record.

What you've got to do is cut the hamstring on the back of his
leg...right at the bottom.
He'll never play golf again...because his weight displacement goes
back...all his weight is on his right foot...and he'll push everything
off to the right.
He'll never come through on anything.
He'll quit the game.

Why would you post something like this? Tiger is playing well (and
smart) as I indicated after his masterful performance at Hoylake, He's
supposed to win? Isn't he?
I have no problem with him surpassing the record in majors. I have no
problem with him setting the record in tour wins. I have problem when
he starts in with profane outbursts and abuse of golf courses. It's not
really complcated at all.

I believe that number would be zero. Or at least it was until

Of course, this raises the question why Bush would want to

That is specifically what the FISA law and the 'emergency' procedures in
it are for. Listen in and then get the warrant within the timeframes

Negotiate with the Taliban? Chris Bellomy is the only person I know who

Before you take off on me about the president, realize that I have
plenty of problems with him. The mess that is our border with Mexico.
Spending like a Democrat. Forgetting that conservatives are his base.
Big diference between being on national TV and having a private
conversation intercepted - recorded so poorly that it is inaudible.
Tiger knows that there are open mics all around at every tournament he
plays.
I have seen him repeatedly damage golf courses during tournaments, two
instances at majors. I guess that kind of behavior is OK with you.
Have I been ragging on Tiger lately? No, so what's your problem,

It isn't Tiger's actions that are in debate, it is your perception of
them.
To you, if Tiger says the f-word or the s-word it's the worst thing
that ever happened.
Now if George Bush says it, it's OK. Personally, I don't worry too
much about what either of them say, preferring instead to judge them by
their actions.
Tiger wins golf tournaments and gives a lot to charity. Bush lies and
gets people killed for nothing in a war we can't win. One will be
remembered as the best ever. The other, the worst.

Whatever. He's played well the last two majors. He's mostly kept a lid
on his temper.
As I have previously said. You claim to like me. I don't treat people I
like in such a way.
Cite my latest post where I was bitching about something that Tiger
didn't actually do.
Enjoy yourself.
Ken

You keep asking that. I guess what you're saying is that since TIGER
IS THE GREATEST GOLFER OF ALL-TIME he is supposed to win. I agree.
Tiger loses his share (about 70%) of tournaments. But I can't think of
another golfer in my lifetime that was almost guaranteed to win if he
was on top of his game. Maybe Johnny Miller in the desert. Even the
great Nicklaus was beaten at his best. When Tiger is at his best, he
sets scoring records and demolishes the field.

Yeah, Puffy, you and I go back to the good old days when AOL had a nice
golf forum and chat room. You could talk to real tour pros in real
time. LPGA player Lori Garbacz was a host there and she and I got
along pretty good. I remember guys like Brad Faxon, Larry Rinker,
Michael Bradley, Jerry Kelly, & Curt Byrum would often come and go.
Probably a lot of other tour pros who didn't identify themselves.
That's also how I met Dana Upshaw, the great golf club builder and
Melanie Houser, the famous golf writer. Sometimes people in the know
would talk to me and give me great golf scoops like the "Conquest
Contests" some of the boys on Tour would have, or the tale about Greg
Norman and his pool girl. I also heard about Vijay's cheating incident
by someone who was involved in that. Back then, there weren't too many
choices if you wanted to talk golf.
One time Butch Harmon showed up and knowing his love for Ben Hogan I
asked him if Tiger was as good as Hogan. "Tiger has a LONG way to go to
be as good as Ben Hogan," Butch said. "But he'll get there." This was
before his first Masters victory. In fact, I saw Butch at Augusta in
1997, the week Tiger won. I introduced myself and asked him how Tiger
was hitting it. "As good as I've ever seen him," he said. I knew
right then they could go look for a 42" long green jacket. A few hours
later I met John Redman, who was coaching Paul Azinger. I asked him the
same question about Zinger and he said, "This might be Paul's week." I
said, "Don't think so."
Yeah, those were the good old days. Pissin people off and then later
making them like you. Back in my prime I could flip em on and off like
a light switch. Met a lot of friends online and even got to play golf
with some of them.
Which brings me back to Ken.
As Paul Harvey says, "And now you know the REST of the story."

That reminds me. Kevin (ktmdog) emailed me last week and wanted to know
if I still had Tiger second behind Jack. I told him that I had been
reading "The Grand Slam" and that I may have to reevaluate my opinion
and put Bobby Jones in second. :-)
