No, but your current avatar of Tigers deformed face is really pathetic I understand why you're upset......

I was going to leave the "pathetic" one up, but I won't because it would just upset the Tiger lovers. I loved Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, etc. They had class and they WERE golfers you could be proud of. They had flaws but their flaws never made them look bad on the golf course or in the media.

Nope. We do that only once every few years for "special" members.

Got you to change it from one of the lame default ones, though.

Not a fan of Tiger the person or his personal choices but he was and potentially still is an amazing golfer.  Since this is a golfing forum, I am here to talk about his golf skills not his poor behavior outside of a golf course.

I don't hold public figures to any higher standards than I hold my neighbors to, they are made out of the same flesh, blood and bone.  I think most people would be shocked if the truth came out about some of the people they idolize.  Tigers dirty laundry went public in a nasty way, some are better at keeping it under wraps...took 15 years to find out the Terminator had an affair with his housekeeper.

Arnie cheated on Winnie like crazy. Gary Player is rumored to be a cheat. Jack, well, he seems okay but you're only batting 1 for 3. Throw in Tom Watson if you want and you're 1 for 4 as the guy stole another guy's wife.

In my experience the people who are quick to shout down another man's morals are typically the ones who have exhibited really poor morals themselves. Get off your high horse, jackass.

You lose the argument when you resort to 3rd grade name calling.

In my opinion, you lost when you failed to respond to everything but the last seven letters. You've said worse about others.

    • Day 316 - More swings, full backswing and full finish.
    • Day 132: did some mirror work while watching TV. Worked on backswing stuff primarily. 
    • 26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity. 
    • Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
