    I was so sure they could not top Obama's Noble Prize nomination…

    And they have proved me wrong…



    AP Poll: Woods Voted Top Athlete of the Decade


    Tiger Woods has been voted Athlete of the Decade by members of The Associated Press, his 10 years of incomparable golf outweighing nearly three weeks of a salacious sex scandal.

    Out of touch doesn't begin to describe what passes for the MSM....

      You want to know my take on this?

      I think they had a muted TV “ON “ while debating the choice in the conference room and Tiger’s picture came up a lot.

      “Hey, look at that, this guy is so popular we can’t go wrong on this one…”

        Well, it depends how you interpret "top athlete"...

          I would have picked Phelps or Federer.

            Does it matter? There are more important fish to fry than "top athlete" (which is pleonastic, anyway, as "athlete" really means a top prize-winner) and whether he has played around or not is irrelevant to his prowess when he plays a round on the golf course (pun intended).

              Honestly - I really don't care what Woods did outside of the sport. I just think either Phelps or Federer were more dominant in their respective sports over the last decade.

                Well, there is also that Wood's physician is under investigation for 'juicing' other athletes.
