I never actually read anything! What did the fine print say?

I remember Kobe dropping a string of 40-point games while traveling to Colorado on off days for criminal hearings! I'm not a Kobe fan at all but he is the exact opposite in terms of performing while your life is in shambles.

It takes awhile to get back to normal. Once he gets more comfortable and happy with his personal life, he will play better golf. Alot of people lose their game due to physical stuff (david duval). Kobe bryant is a good example when he went through that rape trial, game was horrible for awhile.

from wikipedia: This was right when the trail started for him;

Despite the fact that Bryant was the league's second leading scorer at 27.6 points per game, the Lakers floundered and missed the playoffs for the first time in over a decade. The year signified a drop in Bryant's overall status in the NBA, as he did not make the NBA All-Defensive Team and was also demoted to the All-NBA Third Team. ^{[ 74 ]} During the season, Bryant also engaged in public feuds with Ray Allen and Karl Malone .  His reputation badly damaged from all that had happened over the previous year.

I don't think he'll win another one either, but I'm not confident enough to put $100 on it.  Nor am I confident enough I'd be here in 10 years to collect it ha.

I think Tiger's own dominance made us forget how incredibly difficult it is to win a major.  I put the odds at 60% he doesn't win another major, 85% he doesn't pass jack.  The young guns are just too good now.

I dont think any of us know what Tiger is going to do, we havent had a guy this good go through this.
