Babe Ruth is far and away the greatest American athlete of all time.

To this day he is one of the greatest left handed pitchers in Red Sox history - he was the greatest hitter who ever lived, and would have undoubtedly been a Hall of Famer if he'd have stuck to pitching. As a hitter, he revolutionized baseball by hitting 60 home runs in a season - about 5 times as many as was the norm for sluggers of that day.

After Babe, you've got to go with Tiger, Michael Jordan, Bill Russell, and John Elway.

Hey Chop, off topic but have you heard from our favorite Elvis coin peddling guy about us getting paid? Excuse after excuse here, and finally reamed him and haven't heard back since.

He paid me $250 of the $400 and I called it good.
Got tired of dealing with it. Not going spend hours and hours trying to collect the other $150.
I will email him on your behalf if you want.

Wow, better than nothing. No, you don't need to worry about it. Not the money that pisses me off anyway, is is my faith in people getting let down. Does suck knowing I would have paid his ass the 3 grand the next day though.

PO lost the bet after the 1st round of the playoffs.
I paid MR CLEO his money the very next day after my round 2 loss 2 weeks later. I did not get the money from PO until about 3 or 4 days ago.

And the sad thing is he did not even tell me thanks for letting him off the hook small.

Thats something that a poster who pretends to be a bigshot had such a tough time coming up with such a small amount of money.

Tiger Woods w/ baby #2 on the way!

WHO THE FUCK CARES?


Don't get me wrong, good for him. But aside from the shawn kemps of the world, I hardly recall hearing about when athletes have children.

I didn't know anything about Jordan's son or Ewing's son or Clemens' son until they started playing in college themselves (mabye high school).

Is tiger that much of a greater athlete than Jordan or Bonds or Marino? If so, do we really need to know anything about his family aside from how good looking his wife may be?

Master Tiger Woods Thread - All Things Tiger Merged here.

Didn't seem to bad today. I am waiting for thee 1st "Oh the courage it took to hit that shot" or the other good one "Nobody could have ever made a shot like that.

Tiiger is the greatest golfer in my lifetime. He doesn't need these moron talking heads to overhype every shot he's about to take a a tough shot so when it turns out to be a good shot they can get on thier knees and blow him.

Just like the way they did it with Farve. But Tiger is much much much nore deserving of the praise just not over the top head bobbing shit that they spew.

Wrongside,

I agree with you completely. I get so sick of the BS that ESPN puts out and constant licking of ass holes by Berman and the rest of the douce bags on that network.

Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing a terrorist attack that hits ESPN HQ.

"Tiger was able to successfully get out of bed today." NO SHIT

I agree.
But lets face it, if there ever was an athlete that deserved the "I'm not worthy" routine fans do at sports events...it would be him.

I tried to get next to him at the Masters one year just to give him a compliment. You could not even get close. I would have better luck approaching President Obama. And as far as Golf Fans go, the phrase "Get In The Hole" is usually reserved for someone who is on the green and after the putter has struck the ball and put it in motion. We don't need to hear it from some drunk on the Par 5 15th when Tiger is hitting a 3 Wood on his second shot. Just My Thoughts. Thanks For Listening.

Just tell Us what is going on is all I say. How long of a shot is it, what size club is he using, what type of shot is he thinking of playing. You know just the normal shit. Tiger will do the rest all by himself. I bet if he taped the rounds and heard the anouncers spewing all the stupid shit he would admitt that it stupid.

You almost wish Tiger's shot flies outta bounds for once just so it'll crack that kid right over the eyebrow.

and as for the blowfest, Tiger would still birdie that 15th.:laugh:

You know, atleast his post game internviews are far better on the Golf Channel as opposed to the coverage on CBS. The questions and the dialogue are more technical and he seems more relaxed to speak about his day's round instead of "his time off and how much he wiped his ass."

Stupid! In the postgame press conference, this one reporter asks so emotionally, "Tiger...(sigh)....did you relish the cheers today? Did you feel the love of the crowd today?"

Man, it was a fuckin ACL surgury not a fuckin amputation.

as woods was walking to the first tee eating a banana , we got kelly tilghman telling us " there's tiger , getting a little fuel for todays round "

we needs a talking head to tell us he's eating something too ?

come on... they were analyzing how he was walking .

i get he's the man , but it gets to be a little much.

but here's the bottom line , these announcers know they need to blow him 24 hours a day or god forbid , he'll cut them off from his oh so revealing interviews.

Tiger brought to golf a fan base to the game not seen since the loyal following of Jack"The Golden Bear" Nicklaus is his heyday. The excitement and energy he delivers each week is good for the game and the fans, even though the media and commentators only focus on him it seems and leaves the rest of the field to fend for themselves, with the exception of maybe Phil Michelson. However, if you watch Tiger closely, when he misses a shot, he will pout like a child who just broke his favorite toy. I have seen him stick out his bottom lip in disgust and even heard him utter the GD word on national TV. I know he is a perfectionist and he is his best critic, but I think sometimes he thinks EVERY putt should go in and when it doesn't, he gets angry and dejected. Tiger, come on man, you can hit a five iron 225 yds and land it on a dime. I can lose a sleeve of balls on one hole. If you could learn to forgive yourself, you would be even greater than you already are. Hit Em Straight and I will see you in Augusta.
