I'm an idiot

I thought that Tiger was a big baby at the Open, and was grimacing along the way in an attempt to gain sympathy.

Apparently, I am an idiot.

For all the to do made about Paul Pierce's knee and Kobe's inability to perform in the clutch, I think the overlap of the NBA finals and the U.S. Open highlight just what we are experiencing in the Tiger Woods era.

So much has been made of the search for the next Michael Jordan. The champion who is unphased in the face of adversity and able to rise above all challenges. Apparently, we've been searching for him in the wrong places.

The next Michael Jordan doesn't lace 'em up and take it to the hardwood. The next Michael Jordan plays golf, and his name is Tiger Woods.
