Tiger Woods Hits a Tree (How Ironic)

By now most people have heard of Tiger Woods’ late night excursion at 2:30am, resulting in a car accident with not only a fire hydrant, but a tree as well. Lucky for Woods, this all took place outside his house. His wife, who also managed to be awake as this ungodly hour frantically ran out of the house and smash his window with, of course, a golf club.

Officials say there was no alcohol involved, so what the heck actually happened? My only guess could be that he and his wife got into an argument, he fled the house, and forgot that the hydrant was hanging out on the sidewalk.

Instead of just make up a lie, like he wanted to go Black Friday shopping, or that he was going on a beer run, Woods decided to draw even more attention to himself by telling everyone that it was all his fault and he’s only human. Oh Tiger, I completely agree, so please don’t disappoint us.

Golf & Rugby Added to 2010 Olympics

For the first time since 1904, golf will return as a Summer Olympic sport for the 2010 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Golf, along with rugby, was voted on by Olympic officials to join the Summer Olympic sports. This will bring over 120 more athletes into the competition.

Golf won the vote 63-27, while rugby won by 81-8. The last time new sports were added to the Olympics was Tae Kwon Do and the Triathlon, which were added in 2000.

There is a lot of controversy surrounding these decisions, because many people feel that golf is a sport played by rich people, and some places do not allow women to play golf.

I think it will be extremely interesting to see the success of these two sports in the Olympics games.  I can’t say that I agree rugby and golf are Olympic-worthy, but I am very curious to see how Tiger Woods will do.
