I was just using you ...golfdean,<BR/><BR/>No slight intended. I was just using you as an example of someone whose golf viewing is changed by Tigermania.

They all hit great shots, not as many or as often as Tiger I agree. But they should be shown, or maybe we just let Tiger play alone. Go out first and the others play for second, that way Tiger won’t have to wait for someone else to putt. And we might get to see some other players while Tiger walks to each next tee. Listen I don’t like Tiger Woods, I think he’s phony. But that’s my opinion, and I have a right to it. Tiger Woods can win 100 more tournaments than Arnie, but he will never be the man arnie is. The media is a fault as usual; funny they ruin almost everything, sports, politics’, even the news. Why I don’t like tiger 1st he’s not fun, I like fun people, the whole tour is not as fun as it once was, it’s Tiger and the press. 2nd he’s so good that a lot of the players feel they can’t win, great, why should I or you watch? 3rd he is the reason they have messed up a lot of nice golf courses, they say they were tiger proofing them, bull____, they were taking a lot of good players out of the mix by making it to long for them. Long is to Tigers advantage, they add some 300yds to a course and it’s like adding an extra par four for the shorter hitters. DAH.who are they trying to kid, they are fooling the people that only watch when Tigers in the mix. They don’t understand that it’s shaped for Tiger to win. How about Jan. 31, 1999 the fans move a boulder out of his way during the Phoenix Open, if that had been J.P.Hayes, or Mark Calcavecchia you don’t thing they would have held up play for them. They estimate that boulder at 1000 lbs, loose impediment YEA RIGHT. They have not moved the rim in basketball, nor have they made it 95 feet to 1st base, its still 100yards in the NFL. Although they do allow cheating in the NFL now (NE PATS). We use to watch guys playing on golf courses similar to what we play on, and we dream of making the tour, well not at 7500 yards and not without a 300+ driver shot. Lets sum it up the players don’t believe they can win, the courses are not the same, if tiger wasn’t your favorite player you may never get to see your favorite player and he’s no fun. Tell me why I should watch a tournament Tigers in and ahead. Hello! I am going to watch the Champions tour, it’s more compettive, those guys are fun, they all feel they can win and try to do so, and no ones setting up the course for any one player, but most of all the coverage is so much better. Try it you’ll like it, I did and I do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
