I should have bet Tiger instead of the Running Dog and Artie Schiller.

I knew humans were more dependable. Especially Tiger Woods, my favorite professional athlete ever. Hes insane.

No way Scuds. Federer is a great talent but to be honest I havent liked anybody better in tennis than Andre Agassi. I am in awe of Federer but dont think of him as my favorite player. I like watching Federer as I do Nadal.
Those 2 together in another final at the US Open and I may cream my pants (over the tennis, not the guys playing).

Tiger is my favorite athlete, has been for some time.

My favorite athlete changes daily.It is the Halo starter that can go 7 or 8 innings(while holding a lead,)and keep those crappy middle relievers off the mound for as long as possible.Yesterday it was Santana,and today it was Saunders(guy is getting better n' better.)..LOL..FAVORITE ATHLETE...I think this is where we differ, Gander.I would be totally bored watching Tiger win today.It was not enough of a competition to interest me.I like to watch a good competitive game.I guess right now,my favorite athletes would be the Halo n' A's ballplayers.They put on a very tight competive show almost each time they play.The Oakland/Seattle game got a little interesting in the last 2 innings.

That's a good one. I think Tiger is more safe in a field of 100, than Artie in a field of 5. LOL

Tiger more safe than a Dog? Yup.

And Scuds, you probably like watching Nadal play Federer. Tennis doesnt get any better than those two going at it. I like competition as well, but we get a rare chance to see a guy like Tiger about once in a lifetime. There are a few Phils and Ernies and Vijays, but only one Tiger.

This is just like our Fathers or Grandfathers got to see (or read about) when Hogan kicked butt in "53, a spectacle to watch. Love him or hate him ( I am a T fan big time) you are seeing something people will write about 100 years from now...........not that we'll be around to prove it..................kinda like Seabiscuit or Man 'O War, etc.

He's more special than anyone can really imagine. I have said it before...when you are at that level and your peers are in awe of you...

Same thing with Federer in tennis. When Pete Sampras said Roger Federer was the best talent hes ever seen (5 years ago after Sampras beat Federer in Australia), you have to take listen.
