You can throw out all the facts you want about who you have been around, worked around and who I have not but it does not diminish one thing.

This game, your way of living, my little brothers way of living, my cousin's way of living, is about the people who made it possible before them and treating the game with RESPECT.

Game = People, places and things.

I do believe Tiger will get it right and shame on me for calling him out

By the way man, again, Curtis Stange compared to Tiger Woods?

Last point from me cause I am leaving in a few short hours for several days and will not be online - just cause you have the background in the game you do Kev does not solidify your opinion one way or the other. I honestly believe you have blinders on when it comes to Tiger Woods. Your background is the game, you make your living in it. I don't, but I look back on how I was brought up in it and the roots and seeds that were planted in my mind. Roots and seeds that centered around actions, behaviors and respect to the game.

There is a difference.
You're not understanding the point I'm trying to make.

I'm not saying my opinion is right, because it is just an opinion. That being said, with my background in this sport, the people I have been associated with, the things I have been privy to, I do tend to think my opinion carrys a little more weight than someone that hasn't been in those situations. It's no different than Byk, Serling, Drugs, CMOrioles, Chucks, etc..and their opinions on horse racing and the industry as a whole. Yes, it is still their opinions, but I'm willing to admit their opinions carry much more weight than mine, as I'm not privy to the situations they are. I'm not surrounded by it 24 hours a day, as they are.

And yes, comparing Curtis to Tiger is very apt, considering they way I am comparing them has zero to do with their talent as a golfer.
