    Your arguing this in a golf thread? What else could I have been talking about in this type of thread, some kind of Olympic sprinter comparison. I think its obvious what I meant to most, I will clarify the difference between superstar athlete and guy who runs and jumps around the track.

    He WAS the most dominant athlete in his sport for a period of time.... But not the best overall athlete in the world. Knowing who holds that honor is impossible to give out of course

    Tiger Woods & Stevie Wonder are having a drink together in a bar.

    Tiger turns to Stevie and says, "How's the singing career going?"

    Stevie replies, "Not too bad. How's the golf?"

    Woods replies, "Not too bad, I've had some problems with my swing, but I think I've got that right, now."

    Stevie says, "I always find that when my swing goes wrong, I need to stop playing for a while and not think about it.

    Then, the next time I play, it seems to be all right."

    Incredulous, Tiger says, "You play GOLF?"

    Stevie says, "Yes, I've been playing for years."

    Tiger says, "But - you're blind! How can you play golf if you can't see?"

    Stevie Wonder replies, "Well, I get my caddy to stand in the middle of the fairway and call to me.

    I listen for the sound of his voice, and play the ball towards him.

    Then, when I get to where the ball lands, the caddy moves to the green or farther down the fairway, and again I play the ball towards his voice."

    But, "How do you putt?" asks Tiger.

    "Well", says Stevie, "I get my caddy to lean down in front of the hole and call to me with his head on the ground and I just play the ball toward his voice."

    Tiger asks, "What's your handicap?"

    Stevie says, "Well, actually - I'm a scratch golfer."

    Woods, incredulous, says to Stevie, "We've got to play a round sometime."

    Stevie replies, "Well, people don't take me seriously, so I only play for money, and never play for less than $10,000 a hole. Is that a problem?"

    Woods thinks about it and says, "I can afford that; OK, $10,000 a hole is fine with me. When would you like to play?"

    Stevie Wonder says, "Pick a night."

    An excerpt of Bubba's interview on Letterman last night. I was laughing for a good couple of minutes at his answer to Dave's question about describing his style of play.

    Check back later
