Tiger's coming back to the PGA

Haah I know, I was just playing around. It would be great if he came and played at Qual Hollow in May.

He will... esp. if he does well at Augusta. He's too competitive to sit out for long.

BTW, Me and a buddy will be marshals on #5 Friday and Saturday at Quail Hollow... if any of you come out, look us up, but be quiet so I don't have to kick your ass out. :D

Some interesting comments on his return:

Daily Mirror columnist Oliver Holt questioned the top-ranked golfer's reasons for coming back to play at Augusta National.

"How typical of the man to hijack the world's most famous golf tournament," Holt wrote. "How could he turn Augusta into a circus like this? Does his vanity know no limits?"

A sex drama and the Masters...doesn't seem right.

The Daily Telegraph's Mark Reason questioned the 34-year-old Woods for making his return so soon after last month's apology, where he took no questions.

"All that halting guff about maybe returning to golf one day was just a great big fib," Reason wrote. "Tiger, Tiger, pants on fire, nose as long as a telephone wire.

"How will the kids believe in him now? Woods wouldn't know the truth if it came wrapped in a polyurethane cover and had Nike stamped on it. He'd just want to know how much he could spin it."

Yea....he sounded like he would be gone a long time, but he had to already be planning the Masters return.

nobody else has to explain why they are returning to work after personal reasons, neither should he really...I'm just plain tired of hearing about him constantly. Ya, he's the best in the world, but really...he crashed his car, he cheated on his hot wife several times...let them figure it out.

I'm with Hawk.. enough with it already... but I know that's not the end of it...

I don't care for Tiger, didn't before this, don't now, but he is the best golfer in the world right now and he has the right to play, if he's able so.

I don't think he's "hijacking" the Master's... he knows that he'll receive less jeering there than at other venues and the media is so controlled there, it will be a lot easier for him to deal with.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
