Random thought: I don’t understand all the hoopla about Tiger Woods winning the Master’s. I’m not a golf guy, anyway, but the dude went downhill when he was doing some terrible things with his life and his family. This isn’t really even about Woods himself. I don’t root against him. But there are other dudes fighting for that Master’s championship who presumably haven’t made those same terrible choices. Why aren’t the masses rooting for that guy? It’s not like Tiger beat cancer or got attacked by a fan. He’s a great golfer, one of the best of all time, but I personally don’t care if he ever wins another tournament.
