JF was one of the few who criticized Woods early on for his attitude, etc. Don't let other media members off the hook now when they claim they "always knew" about TW but separately "admired" his golf. Do we separately "admire" OJ for football, or do we look at him as the whole person he is?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-980010523927297374.post-46298072872397404842011-07-21T19:40:12.449-04:002011-07-21T19:40:12.449-04:00Another great blog, John.

I really enjoy his interviews, but he talks about Eldrick in reverential tones, which gets a bit old after awhile. Any opinion on this? I too enjoyed watching Eldrick's victories, but golf is a lot more enjoyable now, and I frankly don't care if he ever plays again.pulmcrit1noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-980010523927297374.post-39915442132339968062011-07-20T19:37:46.783-04:002011-07-20T19:37:46.783-04:00second the motion. one-on-one with steve w, former...second the motion. one-on-one with steve w, former caddy/sgt-at-arms/blocking back. please.<br />fredAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-980010523927297374.post-50246762797183046102011-07-20T17:38:29.362-04:002011-07-20T17:38:29.362-04:00You dare to play the Rod Gaspar card!?

Dustin, Ricky, GMac, Rory, etc. I think Kyle Stanley is going to be the next great early 20's star to break out...he almost did it at John Deere 10 days ago. Els, Fuyrk, Mickelson, Stricker are becoming the "old guys" we will be rooting for...it makes me feel old. <br /><br />Even if Tiger was still a good player, I do not understand why a company would want them to represent them. The guy is a jerk, it is proven on film. If you can't get along for 2 minutes with Peter Kostis or Bill Macatee...good luck interacting with other people the rest of your life.Gunnarnoreply@blogger.com
