And I Thought Tiger Was A Douche...

I'm not a golf fan at all--in fact, I hate it and think it's the most useless, nature-wasting sport imaginable with the possible exception of grouse hunting. All those green, beautiful hills and trees that only exist for a bunch of old, rich assholes to trudge around wearing ugly clothes and swinging clubs? The only think I ever liked about golf was "Caddyshack."

But sometimes, the human angle is very intriguing. Some of the worst egos in the world are in golf. Pretty amazing, considering the hideous clothes and lack of personality.

18-year-old golfer Michelle Wie decided to skip the Women's British Open and play on the PGA tour this week, despite not making the cut. And now the other girls are sharpening their claws.

My favorite quote was from Swedish golfer Helen Alfredsson, who said "I feel kid of sad for her...she was so good a few years ago when she came in second a few times." Wow, what a cleverly-disguised backhanded compliment, Helen. We'd never have noticed it.

After all the backbiting and stomping of sour grapes, another fellow girl golfer, Paula Creamer, says "I don't know why you'd want to pass up the chance to play at the (Women's British) Open." I can see her point--I mean, Michelle chooses to play with the guys instead of a bunch of back-biting bitches??

Crazy!
