Re: Retief Goosen: "Tiger Was Faking"

The only issue I had with Rocco wearing red was that I had to do a double take to see who was playing...


As far as questioning someone's honesty and integrity...the man isn't a God (though he golfs like one), Goosen stuck his foot in his mouth sure enough, but it was a lighthearted throwaway comment...the fact that he was beaten by a guy with a ruined knee and a semi broken leg is enough to elicit a little lighthearted commentary if ill advised...all this stuff about losing respect and such for the Goose is way overblown...a little sour grapes, a little envy, really just a little of the dark side of human nature came through the Goose's mouth unchecked and while it was dumb to say in light of his current crucification, like CK said, it's not like alot of us weren't thinking that to some degree...


Even if it had been fake, who cares? Alot less distracting that Rocco yapping and twiching all over the place...I thought I was going to need a Xanax just watching that guy...how a jumpy, nervous kinda guy like that plays good golf is a mystery to me...
