The Billion Dollar Sweat Shop
They argue that money doesn’t matter and that they exist almost solely for the well-being of the athlete. That is why they spend millions of dollars running those commercials telling you about all the great things they do for college athletes.
Another Scandal In Kentucky??
Mind you, the NCAA is the first to tell you that they are all about education, yet Kentucky pays John Calipari millions in spite of the fact that his graduation rates have been abysmal.
The Wrath of David Stern
Gilbert Arenas is going to feel the wrath of David Stern after his most recent incident. This is going to have an ugly end for Arenas.
The Tiger Transformation
In reality, he is simply human. The problem is that we were all led to believe that he was super human, so the Tiger we are seeing today appears sub-human.
A Predictable Statement
Tiger never asked for us to racialize him as a human being. He has been consistent in his disposition, and I don't expect him to suddenly run to black America to save him from this situation.
The Greatest Story Ever Told
For the NCAA, the educational mission of their professional sports league is one of the great scams of the 20th and 21st centuries, no different from the Ponzi schemes of Bernie Madoff. It is a convenient illusion, like Tiger's wife using the golf club to "save him from a car accident."
Profiting On Tiger's Misery??
BetUS.com now has even odds that the divorce is going to happen during the year 2010. Playbackjack.com is betting on whether domestic violence took place after the car accident.
The Taming of Tiger
The truth is that as great of a golfer as Tiger Woods might be, it could be the women of Tiger Woods who cost him a substantial piece of his fortune.
'A Typical Black Athlete'
Sorry, Ms. Foster, white men sleep with white women too, but we don't accuse them of behaving like black athletes. Tiger did not get his cultural norms from the African American community.
Making Fun Out Of Violence
While the Tiger skit made us laugh about the idea of a man being chased by his wife for being unfaithful, it doesn't remind us of the fact that thousands of men are killed or seriously injured by jealous spouses each year.
