Tiger's back hurts, BOO HOO!

So today I'm looking at the golf news feeds and all I saw were headlines about Tiger Woods and his damn back, about 294 to be exact. Ya know what? I don't care if his back hurts. If it hurts that much, then Tiger should not play. Since he is playing, let's talk golf, not about how courageous he is for playing. This is friggin golf here. It's not like he's going out to defend our country. Actually, Tiger tried to defend our country two weeks ago at the Ryder Cup and failed miserably.

I'd really prefer to hear about the first round leader Todd Hamilton. Heck, I'd like to hear his daughter make more funny comments like she did after the British Open.

Here's a good quote from Todd Hamilton regarding the Ryder Cup and playing golf "I was paying attention two weeks ago, it looked like the Europeans were having fun. From where I have been, to be playing for this amount of money on really nice courses, that's fun." Good for you Todd, you've got the right attitude.


This is just too gay (not that there's anything wrong with that) for me. I don't care if my back had the most excruciating pain, I would never let Steve Williams give me a massage.

I heard that Ian Poulter, who is not playing this week, gave all of the European golfers tees with the final Ryder Cup score on them. Ian instructed the golfers to drop a few of these tees on every tee box with the hope that American golfers would pick them up. Too funny.

Hey, we wrote something about that here. I don't think it was courageous - he's playing for cash - but I do think people give him shit for no reason, and I think if he played just to shut them up it's stupid. I admire someone who plays through pain though, as he has an obligation to honor his commitments and so on (for the fans, blah blah).
