Tiger, Tiger burning bright

My daughter made me promise to start blogging again. I got caught up in the doldrums of the health care wars and became to gloomy to post. The Tiger Woods frenzy has prodded me out of semi retirement. I turned away from the dreaded MSM gasbags and discovered the restful nattering of Sports Center on ESPN. They all care so deeply about such trivial matters, that it is quite peaceful to hear them go on and on. But even that refuge is now lost to me because of TIGER! There is so much hand wringing about the poor, abused state of golf, which might loose some of their corporate sponsors, because no one particularly cares all that much about a tournament that doesn't include Tiger Woods. Without corporate sponsorship, the networks that cover golf loose money, which then has a terrible effect on the economy. So therefore Tiger has single handedly brought the economy to a screeching halt. Jeez, and I thought it was the miserly banks who won't lend money to the poor slobs on Main Street. And people are shocked, shocked that someone who makes a great deal of money in an extremely stressful profession, who travels a lot has sex with many cheese ball women. The conventional wisdom is that he right to slink away and try to patch things up with his wife and not play golf. Some golfer pointed out that his absence from the game might mean that other people might win a few majors, heh heh. Yes, it would be nice for him to salvage his marriage, but slink away from golf? Listen if David The Diaper Vitter and Larry Wide Stance Craig didn't slink away from the Senate, I see no reason for Tiger to pay a penance to anyone but his wife. And if anyone in the news business has any compassion for his wife, they should shut the f_k up and not cover all these women coming forward with all these torrid claims.
