Tiger will do well, he wont win, that will be Couples!!!

that would be great, but didn't Jesper have to retire?


I think they should pair him with Fuzzy or Daly

That's an fascinating question.....

I figure it will be one of 3 basic scenarios.

Being a past multiple time champion at Augusta, I'd highly doubt that they'd pair him with someone who he's had a fued with in the past to attempt to piss him off - just not Augusta's style for a past champion, so I kind of rule that scenario out

I figure if they want to make the environment as friendly as possible for Tiger, they'd pair him with a couple of his good tour buddies, like say Mark O'meara and Bubba Watson

If they (the Master's) was a bit pissed at a real possible contender, who's had a neutral past with Tiger, they might pair him with Tiger since I think it's safe to say that even in the uber controlled world of Augusta National, they'll be a media sh$tstorm around Tiger like the tour has never seen before, and that will likely make it tougher for his playing partners

They could also just pair him with a couple of foriegn players who speak little/no english, who'd have a tougher time understanding what's being said in the gallery and/or they wouldn't have to necessarily interact with Tiger on the course much more than a quick point to him every now and then to determine who's turn it is to play next.

Also Camp, the Freddie pick is solid, and Els certainly can't be ruled out either given his play the last few weeks!

You are on fiah today with the pics and quotes! Damn good work. :cool:

My vote goes for "He won't be having sex with his wife, even if he wins."

Maybe he and Jesse James will go out for a beer...then modify a golf cart so it does wheelies and burnouts at the same time. That would be awesome. I don't think Tiger can weld though. I wonder where BB's grandmother is from?

Agree 100%---I like Els too, seeing him bang in those 4-5 footers is the Ernie of old.

I just want to know what he was thinking with Joslyn James. Yeah, I get it, she's a porn star and she'll do nasty stuff. There are WAY better looking porn stars out there than that. It looks like someone strapped a couple bowling balls with nipples onto her chest. Blech.

This is relevant, right?

why isnt this a bigger story...society is screwed up.....New York Jets also acquired Cromartie last month from San Diego, even though he was dealing with paternity issues. Cromartie has fathered seven children by six women in five states, and the Jets advanced him $500,000 to clear up his legal troubles

Actually I have the opposite view... why IS it such a big story? Who needs to hear the same crap for 6 months? I know I don't. Society is screwed up for wanting to read about this garbage for months on end. While I don't agree with Tiger's or Cromartie's actions, it has nothing to do with their ability to excel in their chosen sport.

Waiot a minute- the Jets are a golf team?
I thought they played tiddlywinks. My whole worldview is all topsy-turvy now. I might just have to stand with my arms akimbo.

Indeed! And why to we hold others to a higher standard than most people hold themselves? I think it is fair to say that a lot of folks in the media doing the mud slinging probably have had illicit affairs themselves. It's only wrong if you get caught, you know (I don't believe that, but that seems to be what many people think). It ain't good values but who are we to judge?

Now someone is going to come along and say we should judge because blah blah blah. But I don't think so. Personally, I think if someone can't keep it in their pants when they are in a committed relationship then perhaps that is a sign things are not meant to be. But that is just my personal take on it. Everyone of us has something we value that society does not whether it is speeding or drugs or whatever immorality you prefer.

Am I equating things? No. But I am suggesting that the whole thing got blown out of proportion. Bill Clinton was not even this much of an issue when he got caught until he lied about it. Sorry if others find it offensive, but I feel that cheating is in human nature and should be looked at as a sign that people made bad decisions, that someone has a deficiency in caring for their partner or in fact actually does not value them as an equal or does not care to. Not only do I not see why the media has made it an issue (though I understand why practically), I do not see why it is an issue period for anyone else except Tiger and his family, they either move on together or they don't and who are we to judge?

One more item: I always find it ironic that everyone says they don't care but they care enough to announce that they don't care. :lol: ;)

I certainly enjoying the ethical discussion, not so much the hype itself. It was fun talking about how it might impact or not impact his golf as well. That is a legit topic, IMO.

I just wanted to use topsy-turvy, akimbo, and tiddlywinks in one post.

It's a big deal because every guy in the United States looks at Tiger's incredibly hot wife and long string of hot women he's done in the last few years with envy. Ignoring the morality of it all, that just wouldn't be possible for us mortals. No way I can walk up to some hot woman, tap her on the shoulder, and say "let's have sex" without getting a drink thrown in my face or my nuts kicked up into my tonsils.
