truth on hold Posted March 7, 2015 Author Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) not that this deserves it's own thread, but just another reason to dislike Brady Tom Brady to Join Fellow 4-Time Champ Rory McIlroy at Augusta National http://www.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/extra_points/2015/03/four_score_4x_champs_tom_brady_rory_mcilroy_to_pla.html Edited March 7, 2015 by JTSP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Amazing how quickly the body falls apart at 40 when you take PEDs in your 20s and 30s. Bingo. Tiger, Armstrong, Rodriguez. Funny how one stops winning after one gets caught. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Getting it together? @PGATOUR Tiger Woods birdied his last three to post an opening-round 66. He's 3 back. His round: http://bit.ly/1Nzu3pP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I hope so. I am a big fan of his, and I know a lot of his downfall is of his own doing....allegedly, but I want to see him reach the milestones that he could/should have had by now.

The Poojer Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 they say rumors aren't true until they are officially denied....looks like his agent vehemently denied it twice....

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Can't stand him. Hope, in the end, it's Spieth who breaks Nicklaus' records...not that scumbag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truth on hold Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) Golf needs Tiger. He singlehandedly made it popular.I personally think he's done. I've said this before but probably not really meant it. Now I think he's just another guy in the field, deep in the field. He no longer has any kind of length advantage, and his marvelous short game has lost its touch. Sure I watched intensely when he was at the height of his powers.... Probably the most impressive performances and dominance over a long period I've ever witness in sports. But I'm finding the sport doesn't need him right now either. A fair weather viewer like me is being drawn back into it by Jordan's spieth performance. Can't wait to see how he does in the British, 3rd leg of grand slam. Hes an interesting and refreshing character in that he's not one of these stupidly long hitters like mcilroy. Johnson, and watson. Yet he's got an intensity and precision that makes him very watchable. Add those other guys into the mix and a few others and it makes for great theatre again.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Spieth is a great young golfer who has a complete game, but he's BORING! Tiger isn't and wasn't exciting.

26CornerBlitz Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Golf is in serious decline. tiger was the guy that saved it for a while. Without him, no lay People really care about it. Jordan Spieth? These guys don't have the mystique that Tiger had when he went pro. Check out this article: http://www.cnbc.com/id/101860445 Ding! Golf is a dying sport with courses closing everyday.

eball Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 At next year's Masters Tiger will be 40. It's unlikely he suddenly finds himself and returns to form with all of these 20-somethings out there playing lights out. This tournament was his chance -- none of the big names played. Davis Love III won it for crying out loud! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Day, Spieth, McIlroy, Rose, Kuchar, DJ, Bubba, Fowler. Brooks Koepka (#12) was the highest ranked FedExCup player in the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brooks Koepka (#12) was the highest ranked FedExCup player in the field. Snedeker, Schwartzel, Haas, Webb Simpson, and Kaymer are all darn good players who were in the field.
