stevestojan Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Some jackass photographer shot a picture JUST as Tiger was leaving his back swing. Tiger said: "The next time a photographer shoots a [expletive] picture, I'm going to break his [expletive] neck.'' How this is a news story, I will never know. Isn't swearing uncontrollably a requirement of golf? The best thing I love i Tiger said that basically "you have no idea how much swearing goes on out there" and did NOT apologize for it. I normally hate the guy or team that dominates year in and year out, but for some reason I've always like Tiger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally hate the guy or team that dominates year in and year out, but for some reason I've always like Tiger. About 10 years ago I was at Doral for the Ryder Open. I was directly behind Jack Nicklaus when his tee shot leaked right and missed the fairway. He looked right at me (hand to God) and said, "S#!t!!!". I turned around to see if it was someone else, but there was no one behind me. He was simply upset with himself. So that's my 'Jack' story. Wow, two days, two name-dropping posts. I'm on a roll.

VABills Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 It's not, and the comerman is an idiot. In the past Steve would have taken the guys camera and tossed it. It's bull sh-- that these idiot camermen can't contain themselves and have to interfere with these players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Swearing on the course is nothing new for Tiger; and anyone snapping pictures in someone's back swing deserves to have their fking neck broken. I normally hate the guy or team that dominates year in and year out, but for some reason I've always like Tiger. He's a very likable guy. Most people in his position would act like their sh-- didn't stink. By all accounts he's a regular guy; busts balls with the other tour players, accomodating to the media and fans, plays hards, gracious winner and hates to lose. And who are you going to root for instead -- Phil? Vijay? That punk-ass Sabatini? Meh. I'd really like to see him make a run at the Grand Slam this year.

I remember watching him at Pebble Beach a couple of years ago. He was on the tee, shanked one into the Pacific. You could read his lips saying " Mother !@#$er, mother !@#$!!" as he was slamming his club head into the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he also gives the impression that, while he has a ton of natural talent, he works his a$$ off to maximize it. I have always liked and respected Tiger.

That's the great thing about golf....I can do the exact same thing as the best player in the world: shank my drive into the water and yell "Mother !@#$er!!" btw...for those who haven't been to Carmel/Pebble Beach/Monterey, do yourself a favor and go for a visit. What an awesome place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said to my wife just after he sunk the 24 footer to win a couple of weeks ago, "We may be watching the greatest athlete of our generation." All due respect to Michael Jordan, I believe Tiger has surpassed him as the greatest sportsman in our lifetime. And please, no remarks that golf isn't a sport and is just a game. Sure, you've got guys like Craig Stadler and John Daly walking around, but look at the shape Tiger is in and tell me his physical attributes do not play a part in his winning. Chinese checkers is a game...golf is a legitimate sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dib Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 so a camera makes a 'click' and Tiger goes apesh*t? kitty. 80,000 screaming fans can't distract a fg kicker but tiger cant put up with a click. If I was the cameraman I would have responded with "Well then why dont you do that right now?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMadCap Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I don't trust people who don't swear. Great movie quote there by the way. The only thing I dislike about Tiger is how he throws his clubs around and acts like a kid when he messes up a shot. To be honest, I do that on occation as well, but most of his "bad" shots would be playable for a player of my caliber... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OOOOOOOOh you've asailed my manhood "never played football". what an inane statement. No I dont play golf, I scuba dive and target shoot. Yes I have played football and coached it as well. Tiger is a prima donna like most pro atheletes. If he is disturbed by the click of a camera he is somewhat less than focused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastaJoe Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Now photographers are going to be competing to see who upsets Tiger enough to get hit with a club, so they can then sue him for millions. If a slight noise is such a distraction, I wonder why they haven't tried putting in earplugs when they swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I scuba dive and target shoot. So you'd be cool with people screaming at you while trying to get a close up look at some cool fish and/or target shooting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
