Tiger Woods (1 Viewer)

[Apple Jack]

love the bobby jones instructional vids. the guy's golf swing was poetry in motion.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

Woods is getting worse, not better. Maybe that's part of the process, but it seems counterintuitive at best.

 

[T J]

Tiger is just being selfish now - taking spots in PGA events that should go to players who have a chance at making a cut.

Yeah, I'm guessing this line of argument starts getting a lot of play pretty soon.Jack = Career GOAT, Tiger = Peak GOAT

I think this is pretty obvious. Tigers best decade was the best ever. Jack will likely end up accomplishing more and was better for a longer period of time.

It's two different arguments when you ask who is the greatest golfer ever. I say Tiger because I view the guys who were the absolute best ever for X number of years (depending on sport and position) as being better than the guys who were just under them but did it longer.

Like JIm Brown over Emmitt Smith.

Agree.I think Jack Nicklaus is the all time greatest golfer in terms of success

Tiger Woods is the all time greatest skill wise.

They're 1 and 1a. This entire argument is like Lebron or Jordan....just stupid.

I don't see those as similar at all. Jack and Tiger are clearly top 2. LeBron is definitely not, at least not yet.

Michael's the greatest competitor, winner, etc... but LeBron's skill set by far exceeds Jordan's and it's not close. Skill-wise, ya, LeBron is head and shoulders the best player ever. Dude damn near averaged a triple double carrying his team to the finals with basically a team of role players. I think haters look past that far too easily.

Jordan was surrounded by role players. He just made them better.

 

[Sinn Fein]

Tiger is staking his claim for GOAT, he is making everyone around him look better.

Shooting is a basketball skill, is it not?

Those role players went 55-27 without him in 93-94.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Those role players went 55-27 without him in 93-94.

That is one of the best arguments on the side of LeBron being better. LeBron goes to the Cavs and they go from winning 25 games a year to the finals, and the Heat go from making the finals four years in a row to missing the playoffs. Meanwhile, Jordan "retired" to play baseball and the Bulls still won 55 games without him. Imagine how many games and rings an in-his-prime James would win with that kind of supporting cast and coach.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Those role players went 55-27 without him in 93-94.

And were a crap call in the dying seconds of Game 7 of the Eastern Conf Finals from reaching the finals.

Bobby Jones says "Hi".

I take it you saw him play in person?

 

[Ghost Rider]

Huh? I think you are talking about Game 5 of the 2nd round, which didn't bother me since the Bulls got away with repeatedly hacking Charles Smith in Game 5 the previous year in the closing seconds, enabling the Bulls to 3-peat.

LeBron had Bosh and Wade. And still lost in the Finals twice.

There is a better argument for Duncan > LeBron than LeBron > Jordan. Let's stop being delusional people.

 

[Ghost Rider]

The same Chris Bosh who has never been on a team that won a playoff series without LeBron James?

The same Dwayne Wade who hasn't been on team that won a playoff series without LeBron James since 2006?

 

[tom22406]

Oh great this is another basketball thread now .

Can you guys break down the Warriors chances of repeating next?

 

[Joe T]

Will Tiger make the 2016 Ryder Cup team?

 

[Sinn Fein]

Will Tiger make the 2016 Ryder Cup team?

I hope not.

 

[Jack White]

Will Tiger make the 2016 Ryder Cup team?

Much like winning majors, Ryder Cup appearances are in Tigger's rear view.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

How's he faring?

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

How's he faring?

Probably his best day in quite awhile IMO.

 

[Sinn Fein]

Oosthouzin probably wins this going away, now that he has shed Woods and Fowler

 

[Joe T]

Lol

 

[chet]

Just noticed Tiger beat the 15yo kid by 5 strokes.

 

[BassNBrew]

Spieth already starting to dismantle Wood's records.

 

[NREC34]

Did he wear red today?

 

[BassNBrew]

This thread won't sniff 2 pages. Trolls must be more subtle. You don't tug on Superman's cape.

Trolls? Get real... This isn't troll worthy.

Then bet me $1,000 that he won't win another major. Surely a guy who is "done" cannot pull off such a feat.A mutually agreed upon party can hold the funds via PayPal. LMK.

Come on guy...step up...I offered 4 more majors

Too long of a wait to get paid off, even if he wins 4 of the next 6.

I'll go 100 he doesn't win one of the next two he enters?

Where did a lot of the posts from this thread go? You can't find the original post for a lot of the posts quoted in this thread.

 

[TheIronSheik]

Now that Tiger got that out of the way, I don't see anything stopping him from taking down Jack's record. Tiger is back!!!

He does seem to have the rest of the field overconfident now. They are ripe for a comeuppance.

Pretty obvious the guys that were wrong, went back and started deleting their posts trying to save face. Most of them also will never show their face in this thread again.

 

[Cold Dead Hands]

I will go on record right now that I still think he at least ties Jack's record. I said it, I believe it, I am not ashamed.

I wonder where Vegas has that line at?

Man if Tiger can somehow bridge golf brides from Dufner's to Dustin Johnson's, he'll have hit the poon jackpot.

Only if his glutes are firing.

He probably fired all over Amanda's glutes.

 

[Quint]

that French Bulldog is ADORABLE

 

[JaxBill]

Who does he think he is? Dustin Johnson?

 

[Golden Gopher]

My first thought was "That should do wonders for the U.S. Ryder Cup team next year." Then I realized that that this has no bearing on that, as there is about a 1% chance Tiger is on that team.

 

[Golden Gopher]

Of course, Dufner might not be, either.

At best a push and she was wrecked by Dufner already. He'll be lucky to keep his tour card in a couple of years.
