GOLF HUMOR
Jokes, not quotes, about Tiger Woods' recent social shenanigans.
“Comedy is tragedy that happens to other people.”
Source: Angela Carter \ whatquote.com
--------
A sports \ humorist blogger presents his views on Tiger's marital problems.
"In a very perverse way, while we like Tiger and feel sorry for him, we also like the jokes. Humour works like that - it is no respecter of persons or feelings. Even the sickest jokes find a spot in our psyche that they hit. Take some of the Tiger jokes that have been circulating:"
Tiger Woods is so rich that he owns lots of expensive cars. Now he has a hole in one.
What's the difference between a car and a golf ball? Tiger can drive a ball 400 yards.
Tiger Woods wasn't seriously injured in the crash, but he's still below par.
What were Tiger Woods and his wife doing out at 2.30 in the morning? They went clubbing.
Tiger Woods crashed into a fire hydrant and a tree. He couldn't decide between a wood and an iron.
Perhaps Tiger should be using a driver?
This is the first time Tiger's ever failed to drive 300 yards
Apparently, Tiger admitted this crash was the closest shave he's ever had. So Gillette has dropped his contract.
Apparently, the only person who can beat Tiger Woods with a golf club is his wife.
Might have been worse Tiger, you could have lost your putter!
What course gives Tiger the most trouble? A: Intercourse.
You usually find a tree in the Woods, Tiger's wife found a Woods in a tree.
-------------
Here is yet another joke from a Baltimore radio sports
talk show host on a late evening show on 12/11/2009:
"Tiger is the only golfer I know who plays 18 holes
during a game and 18 holes afterwards."

Where are they now? - Biggest NFL Draft Busts
.
Heath Shuler:
.
Heath Shuler, the highly touted University of Tennessee quarterback, was pretty abysmal after the Redskins took him with the third pick in the 1994 NFL Draft; he only lasted four seasons in the NFL. Luckily for Shuler, he bounced back to start a large real estate business in Knoxville, which he used as a springboard to become a Democratic congressman for North Carolina’s 11th district. He still stinks at football, though; when Shuler led a congressional team against a squad of Capitol Police in a friendly game in 2007, he threw two picks as his team got shut out.

Warren Buffet:
You only find out who is swimming naked when the tide goes out
.
When the Australians walked out, the crowd went nuts, and when we walked out, the crowd went even more nuts. I can't describe how amazing that was. Three thousand people were here rooting for the two strongest swimming nations. I'll never forget that, and I was glad to be part of it.
If I didn't swim my best, I'd think about it at school, at dinner, with my friends. It would drive me crazy.
