Kids say the darndest things: Tot heckles Tiger at The Players Championship
May 8, 2010, 9:00 PM EDT
Ahhhh, children: they truly are a divine gift.
Moments after getting an autograph from Phil Mickelson, a young boy took a shot at Tiger Woods as the beleaguered golfer walked by, dropping some serious snark by saying, “Tiger, say so long to No. 1. Kiss it goodbye.”
Snap! Just when Tiger thought it couldn’t get any worse, he has little kids talking smack to him now, and quite effectively, I might add. I can only imagine what went through Tiger’s head when he heard that – other than the disappointing realization that he is ten shots back and may lose his number one ranking to a surging Phil Mickelson by the end of play on Sunday.
So, the kid not only achieved in wickedly burning Tiger, he was dead-on accurate. God bless that little bastard.

You know , I can definitely see 79 % of women , and 54 % of men knocking Tiger for being unfaithful because those are true percentages of infidelity in this country , those who have a structured moral value . A kid dissing Tiger ? So what ! I’m sure it was the parent at hand . The rest of you are just Jealous Bastards and Bitches !!!

“Tiger did contribute to the increased interest
and subsequent popularity in the black community.”
If you think Tiger only contributed to golf’s popularity in the black community, you haven’t been paying attention.

Tiger was wrong in his actions as it relates to his marriage. This snot noses kid will probably never achieve 1% of what Tiger has done and probably willl end up punched out on a regular basis by his peers until he learns some manners.Oh, yeah, I bet his dad is a jerk too.

…Oh! the controversy of the Tiger Woods scandal! This, my fellow people is the crap you get from putting someone on a pedestal simply because he can accurately swing a stick at a ball. So we tell him to smile a lot, dress him up, give him more money and suddenly he’s a “professional.” You buy his clothes, his accessories, his video games, and you talk about how awesome he his all day. Then, one day, he slips up finally…and the world realizes that his nice-guy image has been just that–an “image.” It was all a charade and if you’ve ever played charades you know that after a while it gets old and you wanna quit and go back to being just yourself. Well, in Mr. Woods’ case, the tower of lies comes crashing down and he is revealed for what he is…a douchebag……who can accurately swing a stick at a ball. It would have been one thing if he had taken the Charles Barkley approach (“I am not a role model!”)But that’s the funny thing about the real world: it’s not the movies and the bad guys aren’t always easy to identify. Condolences, world, your golden boy’s halo was fake. Hero worship is never good.
This just in: Shocking studies show that it might also be possible that many politicians are lying! Story at 11.
(but that lil kid sounds like a punk who needs to be reprimanded, I do agree with that.)

What Tiger should have told the little brat (in a more perfect world): ‘Yer right, kid. If only that sweet Momma of yours didn’t keep me up all night, every night.’
