Man with the Golden Arm Posted July 14, 2005 Report Posted July 14, 2005 Damn, I was hoping Jack would kick his ass as a swan song. Did you see the new Nike spot with the young Tiger transposed into the throngs of galleries at St. Andrews? Great!! Quote
Dave James Posted July 14, 2005 Report Posted July 14, 2005 (edited) Given Woods' history at St. Andrews, you've got to think he's very comfortable on that track. The last time the Open was held there, he not only ran away and hid from the rest of the field but, while doing so, set the record for the lowest overall score in the history of major's golf at 19 under. Too bad about Nicklaus. At +3 after his first round, and considering that the course seems to be yielding some pretty good scores, he'd really have to go low tomorrow to have any chance at all of playing the weekend. Everyone gets old, but it still must be awfully frustrating for him not be able to do now what came so easily to him in the past. Speaking of Jack, did you know that Tiger has won all three Majors when Nicklaus was playing that tournament for the last time? The 2000 U.S. Open, the 2000 PGA and the 2005 Masters. One other golf note. On the off chance Michelle Wie wins the Men's Publinx championship and gets an invite to Augusta, can you even imagine what kind of a circus that would be? I'll bet old Hootie Johnson is having some sleepless nights just thinking about the possibility. Up over and out. Edited July 14, 2005 by Dave James Quote

Dan Gould Posted July 15, 2005 Report Posted July 15, 2005 jack is too damn old ← But what a way to go out, with a bird on 18. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 15, 2005 Author Report Posted July 15, 2005 tiger looks focused he'll win by 6/8 strokes ss1 Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted July 15, 2005 Report Posted July 15, 2005 tiger looks focused he'll win by 6/8 strokes ss1 ← That would be my prediction as well, but I've got to change it now that SS1 publicly predicts that score! Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 15, 2005 Author Report Posted July 15, 2005 be patient...... the nfl predictions are my specialty Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 15, 2005 Author Report Posted July 15, 2005 i've got tiger and i'm givin' 5 strokes to any other player any suckas??? Quote
1ngram Posted July 16, 2005 Report Posted July 16, 2005 Just watched the end of the third round. Colin Montgomerie seems set to give Tiger a run for his money tomorrow. Did you see his put on the 18th? Wonderful! Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 17, 2005 Author Report Posted July 17, 2005 tiger's gonna put the nike clad shoe on the buick gas pedal and bring it on home only tiger's 10th major ss1 Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 17, 2005 Author Report Posted July 17, 2005 "The Tiger Pump" the most lethal weapon in sports today Quote
Eric Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 (edited) Tiger up by 4 with 5 to play. Jose Maria and Colin are faltering. Tiger wins easy from here on out. I have to decide that it is OK to like Tiger, even though he is going to shatter Jack's record for major titles. I guess it is the same thing Arnie fans had to go through back in the 60s What's not to like about Tiger? He is a champion, just like MJ, Jack and Gretzky Edited July 17, 2005 by Eric Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 17, 2005 Author Report Posted July 17, 2005 wtf i take a shower and see tiger's up by 6 gretaest golfer EVER after it's all said and done in their prime jack v tiger Quote
Dave James Posted July 17, 2005 Report Posted July 17, 2005 When it's all said and done, Tiger will be the man. For now, I'll hold with Nicklaus. Bobby Jones was no slouch either. Man, what I'd give to see either guy (especially Jones) in his prime playing with today's equipment. With the possible exception of Sam Snead, Jones had the sweetest swing I've ever seen. Up over and out. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 18, 2005 Author Report Posted July 18, 2005 (edited) tiger wins his 10th major in his 35 major entered when will he break jack's record? i'd say in 6/7 years ss1 Edited July 18, 2005 by Soulstation1 Quote
BruceW Posted July 18, 2005 Report Posted July 18, 2005 i've got tiger and i'm givin' 5 strokes to any other player any suckas??? ← Soulstation, Man you got bad luck. You should quit betting and making predictions, you always seem to lose. Peace Quote
Soulstation1 Posted July 18, 2005 Author Report Posted July 18, 2005 (edited) did i miss something? did YOU or anyone pick colin montgomerie(sp?)? he's the only guy to be within 5 strokes how much did you lose on the pistons or do you just give people shit after they STEP UP and make a pick? if you think my picks are that bad put some $$$$$ on the opposite of what i pick and see how much money you win ss1 Edited July 18, 2005 by Soulstation1 Quote

Man, what I'd give to see either guy (especially Jones) in his prime playing with today's equipment. ← There's the point! Given the extremes of technology today I'd have to favor Nicklaus back in the day over the whole deal cause it's the "head" that would be the best stick in the bag if Tiger were playing persimons, blades and old balatas. ... that would sure be some fun fantasy match. One of my defining memories as a kid was kneeling right up next to the tee box marker on #16 at the Firestone World Series of Golf in Akron (had to watch quite a few no slouchers before him to get that perfect spot all to myself). Jack came right out of his shoes taking the 600 yard Monster in two. Sweet! Quote
