It's not

more like a hobby such as pitching pennies, shooting pool, or bean bag toss than a cardio activity

Why Tiger Woods the person impressed me.

I have seen a lot about the now infamous lynching comment by the Golf Channel reporter and feature cover spread with the noose on it. Many people came out and denounced it rightfully so it could be argued. But I think the best reaction was from Tiger himself, he did not call anybody out, he accepted a sincere apology from the person who made it, and he let it go. As in letting it go he showed calm restraint in doing the whole process. He acted like a gentlemen, not saying this or that or making him out to be anything more then what he is.

That takes a lot of guts to do that IMHO, to act above the people who would say they speak for you or say they have all the answers. Tiger Woods showed that he is the best sports man in the world of today. He did not spout off and was overly condemning. He showed class and said that he can not be everything for everybody, thats true honesty and integrity IMHO.

Thats why I have been impressed by Tiger woods through this whole incident. He showed that even when you have a crisis like that, you handle it with it integrity and calm demeanor.

We need more people like him in this world, to be a good role model is to not always be everything for everybody or have all the answers to society's problems.

Why would he have been offended in the first place? He is a Chinaman right?

hes a damned orient?

Earl, a retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel and Vietnam War veteran was of mixed African American (50 percent), Chinese (25 percent) and Native American (25 percent) ancestry. Kultida (nee Punsawad), originally from Thailand, is of mixed Thai (50 percent), Chinese (25 percent), and Dutch (25 percent) ancestry. This makes Woods himself one-quarter Chinese, one quarter Thai, one quarter African American, one-eighth Native American, and one-eighth Dutch.<SUP class=reference id=_ref-Stripes_0>[6]</SUP> He refers to his ethnic make-up as “Cablinasian” (a portmanteau term he coined from Caucasian, Black, American-Indian, and Asian).<SUP class=reference id=_ref-Cablinasian_0>[7]</SUP> Woods is a Buddhist. He has said that his faith was acquired from his mother and that it helps control both his stubbornness and impatience.

I agree, and the other side here, is for the media to let go of it. Just the fact that they don't, tells me the media enjoys antagonistic reporting in all facets of "news".

what she said should not have been taken any differently than if she would have said "take him in an alley and cut off his hands" it was meant as a joke and if you didnt get the joke then you are plain fukin stupid. too much double standard bullshit about who can say what and get away with it these days. im sorry black people, but nobody in todays times owe you a damn thing and the sooner the media and everyone else realizes it, the better. some of my best friends are black but i dont see color, i dont care. what i do see is black leaders blowing bullshit way out of proportion and getting all the races fired up. the guy at golfweek was just a dumbass, no excuse for him
