Thought this was a great read.

AFC Wimbledon manager Terry Brown: "Saturday's game at Cambridge almost clinched our play off spot, barring a Rory McIlroy style end to the season."

Tiger Woods is never coming back.

Would Bissinger have written the same article if Tiger had shot a par 36 on the front nine, but then ripped up the back nine with a 31, drawing close but not quite to the top spot? Then, it would have been praises how "the light suddenly turned on" and "the old Tiger was back".

If he STILL hasn't won anything by the end of this season, then maybe you can start to shovel dirt onto his career.

Reading Bissinger's Twitter feed makes it impossible to take him seriously. He's just a funny crank firing off hot opinions to get a rise out of people.

I bailed at the part where he is certain Mike Freeman doesn't believe what he wrote about Tiger. How could he be certain of that? It seems like projection from a guy who doesn't believe what he writes.
