Tiger seems to have ramped up his public personna just lately.  A while back he made an announcement that he would be making an
announcement.  Then his Manager (??) makes an announcement that said, NO, he's not.  Then he lets his caddie (maybe even his last friend) go with a bit of acrimony.  And now he's coming back to the tour after pronouncing himself fit and ready.  What say you?

say what you want, but he's great for the game.  ratings are through the roof when he's in contention.  personally, as a so-so golf fan, i've watched a bit of each round on the golf channel just to see how he was doing.  before thursday, i didn't even know for sure that i HAD the golf channel.

I still don't think Tiger has the same "mental" edge he had before, and from just looking at him play, his body is not there to allow the consistency it takes to win a tournament over 4 rounds.  He can put 2 maybe 3 rounds of good golf in, but 4 probably not.  He may win again on tour, but his domintation is OVER.  NO WAY does he win 4 more majors.

That's a hard thing to gauge P4E.  He certainly doesn't look anything like the player he was 8-10 yrs ago, but then again he is only human and not a machine so it was inevitable for him to come down off of the mountain just with age and time, let alone his personal problems.  Tiger had an edge in the physcological dept as much as he was a talented player, but with the "great fall from grace" of his image, it will be hard for him to get that back.  I don't want to bet against him, and I feel like he for sure can "catch lightning in a bottle" again for a major or 2, but I think his chance to break Jack's major record is definately extremely harder than it was 3 years ago.

    • I like option number two, PNG and Nederland both win. Nederland i’ll be the district champion, number 1 seed or whatever you want to call it. Yes I know that if two or three teams tie with the same record, they will be called co-champions and everyone gets a trophy. One team however will go in as the first place team in district and will play the fourth place team in the bi-district round. If PNG and Nederland both win, Nederland will be #1.

    • Virginia has same day voter registration. A person can literally walk in to the voting location, register and then vote. So the premise that Virginia might be stopping people with a legitimate right to vote is nonsense. From what I gather in the news report, assuming that the ones I have read are correct, the people that were removed, filled out a drivers license registration and marked that they were not an American citizen. Could the person have made a mistake bychecking the box incorrectly? Although unlikely it is certainly possible. That same person who was removed can go into the same voting location where he would have voted and again, complete a voter registration and then vote.  That went into the Supreme Court’s decision.  If such a person votes by registering on election day, he fills out a provisional ballot. Provisional ballots are not originally counted and or not counted unless needed. For example….  Statewide there are 500 provisional ballots cast. A person wins the election by 4,000 votes. That would be no need to count the provisional ballots as it will not matter. Then let’s say there are 5,000 provisional ballots cast in the election. One candidate then wins the election by only 1,500 votes. In that case, the election could definitely swing on those provisional ballots. The state will then investigate each person to make sure they live at the correct address listed and that they are American citizens. If these things are correct, the vote will then be counted. Safe Harbor is not untillll…… I think December 17th this year so there will be six weeks to verify the provisional ballots if needed. The purging of the names of people who checked a state form saying that they were not an American citizen, will not stop that same person from voting.
