Tiger looks done

[TheRed]

It's really not...  it's one of the reasons I'm not a Tiger fan, but it's the thing he controls the least... the fact that the media, particularly ESPN is all over him no matter what.  The other networks are guilty of it too... and yesterday CBS couldn't really do it much because he was finished long before the leaders came out, but I've seen it with Tiger a LOT where they show him too much when he's way, way behind to the detriment of showing the guys that are actually leading.

 

Perfect example... Billy Haas hit what is arguably the best shot in the history of the PGA, out of the WATER, during a playoff to win a tournament AND the FedEx Cup and ESPN spent all of about 30 seconds on it the next day, yet they'll talk about Tiger for hours when he's out of contention.

 

I don't think the ESPN thing is Tiger, that's just what that network does. We've had these type of complaints in the football forum too.

Like it or not, they know what we know, people want to yap about the guy, good or bad.

...and that's exactly what I said.  Tiger has no control over this, but it still irks the poo out of me nonetheless.

Sigmund "TheRed" Freud will see right through this veiled response.  He knows what you are really thinking.

I can understand that, generally I do not watch ESPN at all personally. Unless it is unavoidable, like they are the only network airing a game I want to watch.

tiger needs to go pay for some hookers and blow.

I don't either.  I used to watch SportsCenter every morning, but I quit it... pretty worthless.

The Foxsports 1 channel is not a lot better.  They are the only alternative to ESPN.

It's that way with just about every sports network now.

When any jackass with a twitter account can be considered a sports "journalist", this is what you get.
