Golf Sports Blog > David Feherty Defends Tiger Woods -- Golf FanHouse

[FanHouse] And the on-course pouting can get to be a bit much. Of course, anybody who has played golf knows that it's an exercise in patience and sooner or later, there's a good chance you're going to snap.

[Farther Off the Wall] Defending David Feherty - Farther Off the Wall: "There is free speech and then there is abuse of free speech and when you start predicting the hypothetical murder by the U.S. military of two democratically elected officials of this country, it's not exactly rocket science to tell which this is," said host Keith Olbermann. "Even Feherty should be able to figure it out."

[Political Animal] The Washington Monthly: I hope the same conservatives who were outraged by the DHS will push back against the sentiment expressed in Feherty's piece as being precisely the sort of thing that so insulted them formerly--not because I found the DHS report outrageous but because I would like to see some small proof that at least some these folks are not completely deaf to how this sort of rhetoric sounds to those not on their side of the issues, and learn to moderate their remarks and/or police those who can't.

[Waggle Room] You Should Have Known Tiger Woods Was Going to Lose on Sunday: It appears pretty clear from video evidence and the scorecard that Woods is still trying to become comfortable. He has tweaked his swing in a way that he hopes will allow him to take advantage of finally having a healthy knee - one that has been operated on three times.

[Politics Daily] The Regrettable Politics of Golf -- Politics Daily: In the era of Woods and Barack Obama (who met up at the White House a few weeks back), one wonders how long will it be before golf is no longer seen as leaning Republican? Though it will always be a suburban sport, attracting a well-to-do crowd with leisure time on its hands, one hopes that the sport can start to shed its baggage and return to being about the sometimes agonizing quest of putting a ball into a cup.

[POLITICO Top Stories] CBS golf analyst: Soldiers would shoot Reid, Pelosi - Glenn Thrush ...: "From my own experience visiting the troops in the Middle East, I can tell you this, though: despite how the conflict has been portrayed by our glorious media, if you gave any U.S. soldier a gun with two bullets in it, and he found himself in an elevator with Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Osama bin Laden, there’s a good chance that Nancy Pelosi would get shot twice, and Harry Reid and bin Laden would be strangled to death."

[The Hill's Blog Briefing Room] The Hill's Blog Briefing Room » CBS announcer: Any U.S. soldier ...: Actually it would be more like, Shoot Bin Laden(he's at least got the guts to admit he hates the troops) the bash the other two in the head with the rifle butt. Speaking as one of the troops (I've spent 3 years on active duty with the army and air national guards since 9/11)It was really interesting to watch the DNC vote to give us money and equipment to go to war and then turn around and tell the American people we were nothing but murders and rapist who "air raided villages and killed civilians".

[cobratourblog] cobratourblog » Face-Off with Feherty: While at the Players Championship in 2007 I watched Tiger arrive at the practice tee and although Bubba Watson was already hitting balls in position number 4, he and his caddie were immediately moved down the line so Tiger could have the spot. It was obvious that the alpha male had arrived.

[Press Tent] Live Blog: Players Championship Round 2 - Press Tent: 6:08PM From about 180 yards in the rough on 18, Tiger hits a low, handsy, three-quarter, no-flipping-way running hook out of the right rough and under a tree to (gulp!) about 7 feet. Birdie try. To borrow a phrase from Feherty, my flabber is thoroughly gasted.

[BBC SPORT | Iain Carter] BBC - BBC Sport: Iain Carter: Aussies worth a listen: Those critics who upbraid Iain Carter for expecting - or hoping - for a little more of Tiger Woods, press wise, might remember that this is Pro golf, televised precisely because it has an entertainment role. Indeed, the players are contractually obliged to talk to the media as part of their hugely rewarded efforts - Woods is one who's appearance money alone dwarfs the earnings of many of his peers.

[Fang's Bites] A Masters-Centric Press Release Post: ESPN networks will televise a minimum of 15.5 hours of live Masters coverage throughout all rounds of the tournament, as well as the Par 3 Contest on ESPN’s pan-regional network in Latin America, and live coverage in the Middle East and northern Africa. ESS will air up to 17.5 hours of live coverage throughout Asia, while Canadian fans will be able to watch the first two rounds of The Masters live on TSN, with same-day re-airs in primetime of the final two rounds.

[Farther Off the Wall] Nothing to sneeze at: More media notes: Pieces include one that Lisa Salters did on Tiger Woods' caddy, Steve Williams, and Jeremy Schaap traveling to South Africa to interview Oscar Pistorius, aka The Blade Runner, who was told by the IOC he couldn't compete in the Beijing Olympics with his prosthetic leg.
