Its true Alan. I told Pflum that I'd stop being involved in political threads. After a while it was either that or just leave RSG. So, yes, I reneged. Sorta like when Greg left RSG and swore that he'd never come back, but did. BK

Go on: let's see 'em! > > The court of public opinion is not based upon facts. Uh....uncle al, the kiddie's pal, consider this. 1. Tiger used the word, "infidelity." What does he mean by that? 2. There are testimonies from 6+ women. How many does it take to prove infidelity? 3. If he's not an adulterer, do tell us why Elin is angry and why TW is quitting golf. -Greg

Everything you just said > above was rained down more than a few times and you were obviously > gloating because you didn't like him in the first place. Because you keep bring it up over and over and won't move on... You get the same answers because you keep raising the same questions/ points. And you'll keep getting the same consistent answers as long as you do. Actually I did like him in the first place... rooted hard for him in 97 Masters. Same in 2000 at Pebble Beach. At some point though I kind of lost respect for him as a person (avout the time I realized he was probably just a rich punk)... I'm not gloating that Tiger is in this mess... I was poking it at anyone that thought he walked on water. > There's > always something sad about people who want successful people to fail > in some way or another. I didn't want him to fail. I've said a couple times already, I wish he hadn't done it. that is beyond my sphere of influence.
