john said...: Happy hour here.

I think it was a Doonesbury cartoon a while back that featured the town of Wiltsborough Pennsylvania, populated entirely by the conquests (and progeny) of the famous Mr. Chamberlain. He once scored a hundred times in one evening, so I am told.

Tiger's such a piker.; 4/30/10, 8:14 PM

SteveR said...: I think he'll be up and down for awhile but soon enough he'll be the favorite every time he plays. The history of sports is filled with great achievements by otherwise loathsome characters. He just needs to adjust from that being a private concern to a public one.; 4/30/10, 9:05 PM
Peter V. Bella said...: Who cares about him? What does he have to do with baseball anyway?

BTW, is he one of the people who made enough or too much money? Is it fair?; 4/30/10, 9:20 PM

Lem Vibe Bandit said...: "You have to let it go," Woods said. "It's like baseball -- you go 0-for-4 two days in a row"..

Its nothing like baseball.. in baseball you got your teammates to pick you up.. in golf its just you.; 4/30/10, 9:27 PM
Lem Vibe Bandit said...: I am glad to see this thread! Time to put baseball-glove-leather-fish-face-getting-a-dental-cleaning to sleep.

You are not the only one... its been giving me the creeps.; 4/30/10, 9:32 PM
Irene said...: Hi Lem! The more I looked at it, the more Mr. Limpet started to look like a long-lost relative.

Do you think this fishman looks like Tiger??; 4/30/10, 9:35 PM
reader_iam said...: Meanwhile, Bret Michaels is expected to emerge from the woods, Sandra Bullock's relocation to New Orleans is well under way and Lindsay Lohan's judgment continues to be questionable.; 4/30/10, 9:43 PM

He's really screwed, because now he can't really get screwed.; 4/30/10, 9:48 PM

His game was like a fish out of water.; 4/30/10, 9:49 PM

If you have relatives that look like that, it's time to get a new family.; 4/30/10, 9:54 PM

@readeriam That catshark and Sammy Davis Jr. both have one wonky eye.; 4/30/10, 9:56 PM

Its the Tiger/Shark/Pirate look; 4/30/10, 10:05 PM
reader_iam said...: Well, as to the catshark thing, the first image that jumped to my mind was that animated guy (different characters, same visages) driven crazy by the Pink Panther way, way, way back in the earlier incarnations of that cartoon.; 4/30/10, 10:05 PM
Lem Vibe Bandit said...: that animated guy (different characters, same visages) driven crazy by the Pink Panther..

this one; 4/30/10, 10:09 PM
reader_iam said...: Omigod. We bought a Pink Panther set on DVD as soon as it was available, now years and years ago.

Therefore, I had no reason to know--until I was inspired just now to check--that the first episode, which contains the exact snapshot of the referred-to image that jumped to mind, is now available on YouTube.; 4/30/10, 10:14 PM
reader_iam said...: Sorry, Lem. We were cross-posting in the sense that I was off checking if particular videos are currently available online when you posted your link, and then I posted before looking back. I appreciate your getting the visual reference.; 4/30/10, 10:38 PM

Opus One Media said...: ahhh an interchangeable expression..good for home, life, personal ethics and golf.; 5/1/10, 3:49 AM
AllenS said...: Maybe he missed the cut on purpose. That way he would look more normal, an average golfer, an average man. If this is a pattern, then he's done, but if he makes some kind of a comeback, well then, the golf announcers will be putting their pink lips on his black ass, like they did before the famous car accident/golf club upside the head.; 5/1/10, 5:57 AM
Rialby said...: Tiger never misses the cut.; 5/1/10, 11:45 AM
ricpic said...: In golf you get to tee the ball up and then it sits there waiting to be hit. In baseball you have to hit a ball thrown low and away or high and tight traveling 90 MPH. And they call golf a sport. Hah.; 5/1/10, 1:23 PM
