Tiger- A DADDY! Wow.

Sunday December 31, 2006 | 12:20:06 pm 272 words, 4678 views  

“And a child was born unto them.” Well, another page in the life of Tiger Woods is opened. Nine months of a pregnant wife, nine months of anticipation and preparation. Of course, the question looming, how will this new development effect his world renown preparation for the majors? Assuming everything goes well, it wouldn’t seem to get in the way for his next assault at Augusta and his third major in a row. Then on to Oakmont where Tiger has the opportunity to score his second Tiger Slam.

Now things get interesting. Let’s say for arguments sake that the baby is born between the US Open, and the Open Championship. Since Tiger is the defending Champion, I don’t see how he could “opt out” as he is doing now by taking a pass at the Mercedes in Hawaii. But, given Tiger’s desire to become a Dad, and no doubt a seriously “involved” one, like his father, I would not be shocked if he did take a pass. But, then again, the weight of history and his place in it seems to dictate that as long as we have a healthy baby, and his desire to keep the Claret Jug, he plays.

Next point: I hope for the child’s sake he has a daughter. I am not sure just what it would be like to be the “son of Tiger Woods,” but the expectations would be huge. Better he gets a beautiful daughter to dote on, and who won’t have walk in the shoes of the master. One thing is certain, this kid will have a smile that will light up the world.

More communist PC race-mixing propaganda.

CBMaxwell,

On another thread, Evil Hater, has posted some drivel that makes his post here mild by comparison.

I think that he might just be stirring the pot trying to get reaction.

Then again, he may have swallowed that Neo-Nazi propaganda hook, line, and sinker.

You'd think that Evil had never seen or even heard of a mixed race child before.

Alex says mixed race because he is PC.

Is it wrong to say:
a. mongrel
b. half-caste
c. mulatto
d. quadroon
e. octoroon
f. sambo

HA HA HAAAAA! I have never seen evil hater before. I am laughing my nuts off! Mixed-Race would be humans and cows, or something like that. All humans are one race. Different ethnicities, maybe, but one solitary race.

Can you imagine the first guy who tries to hook up with Tiger and Elen's daughter? That would be a tough one.

Ron must also believe that a Chihuahua is the same as a German Shepherd.
Would the result of that mixture make a dog breeder proud?

The LPGA must be praying that Tiger Woods and Elin have a baby girl ;-) although she just might want to conquer the PGA Tour like Michelle Wie.

Happy New Year!

I am amazed at how this post could digress into race relations, "mixed race" connotations, proper racial name calling and the like. The point of the BLOG was how will Tiger respond to daddyhood, and how it will effect his run at the next Tiger Slam? Stay on point people!

As for racial "purity" it is clear that the unique blending of Tiger's genetic code of Caucasion, Black, Native American Indian, and Tai has created the world's best gofer with a megawatt smile.

Poor "Evil Hater;" he will have to do with his dog loving him, since finding a racially pure partner is well nigh impossible...and if he did find one, where is the love?

CB, if your grandchildren aren't part black, are you hoping for some that are?

Wow, he's a daddy -- big deal. Anyone can procreate; it's not that difficult. When he's an individual of virtue and wisdom in twenty years, I'll be impressed.

Well, Evil,
Since I am the offspring of West Virginia white blood, it is certainly possible that I have a slave or two as my back blood. So do you.

As for my daughters...oh boy...pure white baby, pure white...but who knows for sure?

Yes, another self-righteous net cop steps in. Actually, I am Booger's brother-
in-law, heading back to the real world in a few more hours. He might be
slightly to the right of Atilla the Hun, but he's got nothing on me. And like he
told me, this blog is crawling with commie trolls. Happy New Year!

I wonder if Shanks would write a blog titled 'If Tiger Woods was My Father' as the follow up to 'If Michelle Wie Was My Daugther'....

Perhaps there's a 'If Elin Was My Mother' somewhere in some other blog sites....

Evil Hater AKA Booger,

Your excuse is as lame as 'the cat ate my homework'...

Don't worry Trevor, Evil Hater will be back for Easter. I'm sure he'll want to
have a look around here if the weather cancels our golf plans.

To Blog Editor,

I don't think you should be "outing" people on the board. Listen, there are a number of people here who sometimes masquerade under alternate screen names. Remember that such practices could alienate respondents.

He wasn't outing anyone, though, in actuality. He THOUGHT he was, however,
which makes him one of the enthusiastic Soviet "new Americans" that are
gonna further ruin this country.

I didn't mean to imply that I don't believe you, Booger. However, he did "out" the fact that both posts were transmitted from the same computer, which is not good practice on the Internet.

Of course, one could say that anyone can make any kind of comment whatsoever under the cover of anonymity, but the truth is that most of us don't reveal our true identities here. Some others do, and that's their choice. And that's as it should be.

I think secretly all the golfers are happy about this, or they should be.
How could you not, when you know Tiger's preparation cannot be the same after he has a kid? This makes all that talk Ernie & Adam Scott do about being the world's
number 1 in a few years more viable.

I agree it would be better for him to have a daughter than a son, poor kid wouldn't be able to pick up a sport without knees knocking.

B.F.D.

Another roadblock on the way to trying to break Jack's records.

Imagine if Tiger had stayed with Butch, if they had put away their egos at the door. Would probably have about 17 majors already. Would have had to stay with Jagoda too. Played great with her by his side....

Now Tiger is playing an even more limited schedule... Wait until the Nanny makes him change diapers... Won't be doing the American Express commercials in the rain anymore... To busy with feedings and diaper changes...

Can't wait until Masters time and The Nanny leaves Tiger home with the kid(s) to go do some entertaining on her yacht in the Carribean...

Oh sadly, what could have been....

Booger,

Even your last defender in the world is not accepting your lame excuse...Why not just admit it and move on?

After all, anyone taking the comments here too seriously are out of touch with the online communism, ahemmm, I meant community...

Do you think Elin would let Tiger hire a hot Swedish nanny?

What if Tiger has a penchant for Swedish nanny?

I have never liked golf until my friend taught me a little about it. I have suddenly found an interest in golf and especially Tiger Woods. I was shocked to hear that he was a father. I'm really happy for him :)
