Even though it was at least 6 years ago, I saw him on TV at a Dallas Stars game.
What is bogus about his stupid comment, is, his wife is Swedish and he knocked down a game in a city which was a team where the top players are mostly Swedes. Go figure.

Hockey players cant help the fact they theyre not paid much (unless youre talking Ovechkin, etc). Theyre probably the most fit and conditioned athletes in the world, their bodies taking incredible amounts of abuse. So youre basically saying that Tiger gets paid more to do less, while driving around on a golf cart wearing namby-pamby prep clothes, smacking a little white ball around with the crowd in absolute silence (dont wanna interrupt the immense concentration ), driving/promoting Buick, etc? How does that make him "smart" again?

Ill say it again: Tiger is 1/2 the man a NHL hockey player is. Heck, he doesnt even deserve the name "Tiger". That name should belong to a hockey player or a UFC fighter or a boxer, not a 110 lb golfer. I therefore shall call him Fluffy Woods.

I prefer to call him Tigger.

Saying stupid things about hockey is what Tiggers do best!

Watching golf is about as interesting and exciting as watching paint dry. Sounds like "Tigger" is getting too big and rich for those namby pamby pants of his.

Quick test on Tiger's manhood: hit a little white ball around a manicured lawn, or stay in bed with his hotty wife. A real man would rather putter around with the babe.

There is no passion. There is no emotion except when they pump their arm a few times when making a whole in one or getting maybe a birdie.

To be able to sacrifice your body, mind and soul for a sport. To leave it all there. To play with everything you have. That says something. It says something about dedication, passion, teamwork and a sense of emotion with the sport they play.
it is impossible to compare the two sports in that way. golf is a totally different game than hockey obviously.
