Travesty. Clearly, Lance Armstrong is the athelete of the century
because he's actually an athelete.

Golfers aren't atheletes.


You don't know much, evidently.



Are you second-guessing rec.boats' own Mr. Non-Science? :)

Oh, I thought he was our lawnmower expert. He knows about science?

If he knew anything about science, he'd marvel at the multitude of
effects Tiger Woods can put on a ball with any one of the 14 clubs in
his bag.

And, if he knew what it took to develop such skills, he may not be
among the mob of idiots who'd like to string him up. He's like any
pampered athlete. They're denied a normal life and live on clouds of
adulation and worship. False sense of security. It's among the
hazards of professional sports.

I was at least as "athletic" as Woods but my wife wouldn't let me
compete on other courses.
Darn fortunate to get to play the same course, once or twice a week now.


LOL...

It might be too early to say definitively, but there seems to be a trend
* emerging. First Obama Then Woods. Who will get the next prize.


Are you suggesting this because they are both black? Seems to be the
only common thread of the two.


Funny, being open minded as I am, the first thing that struck me was two
folks who got prizes they may not have deserved in comparison to the
competition... Never even thought of the color thing till you mentioned
it..- Hide quoted text -

Why would an open minded person think that Woods is undeserving of the
award? He is by far the best golfer out there, an brings in billions
to the sport.

Kind of puts Loogie in the same boat with Harry, doesn't it. Racists,
both of them.


I wouldn't put Loogy in the same boat as Harry. I'm not that cruel.
But Loogy does come up with some strange associations at times.

John, in the past you have made many many bigoted remarks. Show me one
I've made.
