Weekend Wrap-Up Part 1

How can we avoid this?

Everything and their mother has had an opinion on Tiger Woods driving his SUV into a fire hydrant and into an oak. It really should not be a big deal. Tiger did not harm anyone but himself in this situation or damage anyone's property except the counties hydrant, and perhaps his neighbor's tree.

Why has this not gone away?

Well, besides the American public being complete whores for gossip and always wanting to see the rich and powerful stumble to their levels, because the whole story has more holes in it than Swiss cheese.

Why was Tiger leaving his house at 2:30am? Was he fighting with his wife? Is the rumored affair with the Long Island hostess the reason for that fight? Did Mrs. Woods go after him with a 7 Iron like she was William Wallace in Braveheart?

Although Tiger Woods has no committment at all to going public with this, he has to realize that his so called private life became very public, whether he likes it or not. TMZ, National Enquirer, and others will make sure of that. Although, ESPN has done their best to protect Tiger. (Sickening how the biggest Sports Network, who shows an entire round of Tiger's in highlights, was the LAST to report of this!) I think ESPN sent Tom Rinaldi to be a bodyguard, and not a reporter.

It is not helping matters that Tiger blew off the cops several times (although did not have to by law give the cops a statement), made a statement over his website and not in person, and cancelled his appearance at a golf tourney that helps his own charity. People that have minor injuries and scraps to the face do not do that.

Something smells awfully fishy about all of this, and the way Tiger is trying to control his privacy in this is only fanning the flames. Hopefully, it all comes out, because if it does not, the public like the whores we are, will speculate until speculation becomes the truth.


Did everyone see the end of the UCLA-USC game? I know it was tough if you lived on the East Coast like me, but it might of been the most hysterical thing I have seen in sports all year.

Of course you already seen it!

Does the entire Pac 10 Head Coach Fraternity think they can take shots at Top Dog of the Conference, who is the master of giving out shots and think he was going to lay quiet?

Big mistake.

There is a reason Pete Carroll is not in the NFL, where the talent is mostly equal, and is at USC, where he gets whatever talent he wants. Carroll is The Bully.

So when UCLA head guy Rick Neuheisel takes out giant ads in LA newspapers saying that USC does not own LA anymore, it was not forgotten. When Stanford's Jim Harbaugh went for 2 up 20+ points in the 4th quarter, it was definitely not forgotten. And lastly, when Neuheisal is taking timeouts when Carroll was giving mercy and taking a knee with less than a minute left.

UCLA became live game, and was made an example.

We all know what happened. 45 yard TD bomb, USC sideline acting like they just went back in time and beat Texas in the Rose Bowl, and a riot almost breaks out.

These are heated rivalries. Anything goes, especially when The Bully has been taking shots to the mouth.

Remember The Empire Strikes Back? The Empire took a shot in the mouth (end of Star Wars), and went after who gave them those shots tenfold. In the Pac 10, USC is the Empire.

The boys are the Pac 10 might of awoken a sleeping giant. Carroll might be a jerkoff, but you guys made your bed with all of this, now it is time to sleep in it.


Monday Night Game:

Big game tonight in New Orleans. Offensive fireworks should be going off for 3+ hours straight.

This game reminds me of the 1985 Monday Night Game between the undefeated Bears, and the Miami Dolphins.

An awesome QB (Marino-Brady), going into a hostile envoirment and beating an undefeated team by going nuts aerially with his WR's (Clayton-Duper, Moss-Welker).

New England Patriots 38, New Orleans 27.
