Tiger Woods certainly no Arnold Palmer at most boring Masters in memory Links1

Tiger Woods has shown time and time again he is no charger. He may be the most dominant player of all time, but he doesn’t set hearts aflutter like Arnold Palmer used to do during one of his famous charges. Give Woods the lead and he’s a pit bull. Put him a few strokes back and he turns into Shelley Winters. Woods had tons of opportunities to make a serious run for the lead ... [link]

Published 4/14/2008 at Big League Stew
... After two weeks of blogging baseball from ma's basement home, I finally got out to my first real, live game on Sunday. It was White Sox versus Tigers and although the forecast called for miserable April weather, it wasn't anything three layers and consistent Southside sunshine couldn't handle.

Look no one roots for Tiger more than I but let's get over the fact that he didn't win or come from behind or scare anyone into dropping seven shots.
