Before I moved here in 2011, I use to go in a Dick's Sporting Goods outside of Baltimore all the time. There was an old white hair guy working in the golf department, he always made sure everybody knew he was 75 and still working and playing golf. I guess he had never been to TV. He would always talk about how great Tiger Woods was, and if I ever mentioned Phil Mickelson, he would call him a gambler, and a bum, and his smile was phony and he signed autographs because Callway made him. He even told me once that Phil went to Callaway to borrow $2 million to pay off gamblers.
This was all before 2009. Then one week the Tiger Woods story hit the news, him getting hit up side the head by his wife and him fleeing the house and wrecking the car. I couldn't wait to go back to Dick's and find that guy and ask him what Tiger Woods was up to that week. Of course, Tiger was only human, many rich guys in his position would of done the same. Some people, they just can't admit they're wrong.
