Tiger Woods promotes his own video game : and sometimes comes across as an average guy. An amusing look at a day in Tiger's life.

Google is your friend. This weekend is in desperate risk of being lost to Tiger 2007. And we have relatives visiting.

That would be just awsome to do something like that. And then to be intimidating in a video game is just amazing.

Love him or hate him that Simmons feller has one kick-ass job.

This is definitely one of Simmons' better columns of late. Too bad he didn't pitch the idea of "Black Caddyshack". I think Tiger would've liked it.

Sickleguy- Tiger pumps his "game" the way Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise and the rest of the millionaire crowd strut their new film, cologne or line of duds. Didn't Tiger just open a programn for learning and sports development? What has Georgie done for the underprivaleged? Oh, yeah, "No Kid Left Behind"...

Yeah, the guy whom just bumped a guy for education, mispelled "program". Sorry to all...

I thought the article was funny. Imagine MJ and Charles Oakley coaching the Ryder Cup team. Oakley intimidating Sergio, funny me thinks! And thanks yerfatma. That proves Tiger is a greedy non-giving SOB!

Love him or hate him Used to love him, now I kind of hate him. There's nothing worse than a talented person who gets complacent before they've reached their true potential. But then, LA tends to do that to people.

Sickleguy - I just don't get it...Why is the fact that Tiger is exceptional at what he does, very successful, and wealthy, make him a target? Please do a little research before the knee-jerk reactions start. I'm not even a big fan of Tiger's and I still found your comment to be just a little embarrasing.

I'm with sickleguy, Tiger is all about Tiger. Not that other athletes are the same, he just takes it to a new level. Now he's skipping the tour Championship. Loved how wolfdad tried to make a point that Tiger is alright because he's like Tom Cruise! I think that just proves sickleguy's point

Forget Tiger.Doesn't he have enough money from golf and Nike? What I want to see is an article describing Tiger doing something to help the less fortunate.
