Tiger wins - we all win TOUR

dagofa2 · February 10, 2007

Are most Pros happy riding on Tigers tail? Im tired of the back to back bogey and double bogey stretch by the leaders on Sunday! Tiger is making them all lots and lots of money and Im sure they wouldnt want to make "the money maker" mad!

Phil, Vijay, BigE... where do you go when Tiger is around?

I like to pour some sugar on my Cheerios for breakfast. How about we talk about that?

Wouldnt it be nice to live like that?

Have one man work that hard and everyone get paid for their hard work.

Are you saying if the others didn't show Tiger would still get paid.. I doubt it. You think they (other players) enjoy getting beat, I dont buy that for a second.

I don't think anyone likes to lose, but I think we have too many guys who don't expect to win. They are just glad to be playing on the Tour. They know they can finish 20th and still take home a $50k paycheck.

So in that line of thought, some are happy to ride the coat tails. I don't think the guys in the top 10 or 20 in the world rankings feel like that neccessrily. I don't think the Europeans feel like that. I think they want to succeed over here. I think the foriegn players want to win over here and put some pressure on Tiger. Just take Ernie's 3 year goal for example. Maybe some of the US's younger players will learn from that.

Can I have frosted cheerios?

Exactly, great sentiment.

Can I have frosted cheerios?

Absolutely. But what's the magic word?

I'm sorry for my light-hearted approach on this subject, but honestly, please. As world class competitors, are we to expect that anyone on tour doesn't have the burning desire to win? Are we to believe that they are satisfied with second best? Point blank, bottom line, quite honestly, truth be told, with all due respect, they didn't rise to where they are on tour by being complacent. With all due respect, it's an asinine hypothesis to begin with, at best.

Steak and eggs!

What is BigEs plan? He did beat tiger by 1 last weedend.

I would like to see big names win, even if TW is not there. How long has it been. (first tourney of year? VS)

Ernie wants to regain the No. 1 ranking within 3 years. Although from what I have heard that is almost mathematically impossible if Tiger wins anything at all because of his massive points lead. He has played twice and has a win and a top 5. Hard to lose points that way.

Oh, and sorry I forgot my manners. May I have frosted cheerios....please? ;)
