A story involving sports, even my wife will read.


So, here's a statement; Tiger Woods is a great golfer. True enough, isn't it? Here's another; Tiger Woods makes a lot of money in endorsements. Also true. Another; Tiger Woods is a complete ass. Can't deny it, can you?

I for one, have never subscribed to the notion that he was above reproach, and that he was a great role model for our kids. Just watching him, time after time, pouting after a missed shot, or whining about noise when his drive went awry, is MORE than enough evidence to support the notion that he is actually the worst type of role model that we could set up for our kids. Imagine if your child repeatedly threw his bat down and complained about distraction every time he/she struck out, or threw a hissy-fit every time he/she missed getting a goal in soccer. You would take them aside, rather quickly I hope, and set the record straight about sportsmanship.
"Be gracious in defeat..."
a quote from a rather wise individual, (I just can't remember who". Not Tiger, we love him for it. Indeed, we give him accolades for his competitiveness, his drive to succeed. What are we, crazy?

Let me set the record straight about his being an african-american, suceeding in a "white-dominated" sport. Who cares? The times of playing the race card are now over. Welcome to 2009. Look in the NFL and the NBA, and tell me which race dominates. Simply put, race is irrelevant.

I had to put that in to illustrate that being an ass is multi-cultural. There is a veritable rainbow of asses. It takes a whole village to raise an ass...I can cliche all day about this.

So aside from being a whiny, impetuous loser, what else makes Tiger an ass. Well, how about 8 mistresses and counting...enough?

The guy has to travel all over to play golf in exotic places, poor guy. He gets lonely on the road, poor guy. He has all kinds of women available and throwing themselves at him, POOR GUY. He has a gorgeous (by any standards) wife, who by all accounts is a fun, caring and wonderful person, poor guy?

The answer is, not a poor guy. The answer is he's one lucky SOB, who almost anyone would love to change places with for one day. Just one day...ahh the things I could accomplish. The answer is, every time another girl steps forward saying,
"Tiger and I..."
his "assness" grows.

He doesn't owe anything to America, as I have already shown, he is a terrible role-model. He doesn't owe anything to african-america, there's plenty of representation for them. The only ones he owes anything to are his family, and he needs to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness for being such a huge, gigantic, (you guessed it) ASS!
