Tiger's Masters win & comeback showcased his unique ability to unite the country | GOLF | THE HERD

What is it about Tiger that moves us? Okay, time's up. We shouldn't be moved like this. There are many reasons not to like him. He became very popular and very rich. People are upset that he threatened a beloved legend, Jack, who we don't like. ask lebron about the michael jordan thing, he never treated his fans warmly or particularly well and did some really bad things to his family and yet most of america sat on their couch crying yesterday, Only two athletes in my life have had this power, Michael Jordan. and Tiger Woods and have certain things in common Michael Jordan's first three titles.

I was amazed by him. I never really felt connected. I almost adored him. I looked at him and then his father was murdered. He went and played baseball. He fought a lot. He came back and now Jordan. It was more like a family in the decade when Tiger Woods dominated

. He mesmerized and amazed me. I punched him, but then he broke down physically and emotionally and yesterday, for the first time in my life, I backed up against other

ers. I'm not proud to admit this. I expected Francisco Molinari to be hit by a golf cart for most of the afternoon.

We shouldn't love Tiger so much. 90 percent of us don't play golf. Several books written do not complement his choices, but yesterday was the greatest

comeback

in the history of American sports, in my opinion, Tiger had no business being there even in a six year period after his dominance, he tore a ligament anterior cruciate, had a neck injury, sprained mcl, ruptured achilles tendon, three back surgeries, one back fusion. Hell, that sounds like an autopsy admitted two years ago, he wasn't sure if he would ever play golf again. His back hurt so much, he said I can't even coach the president's cup, riding in a golf cart, bouncing up and down, it hurts.

Too much, I got some criticism yesterday colin, you said a few years ago that he is a former golfer, of course he is. Tiger admitted that he wasn't sure about playing golf again. What we saw yesterday is why we love mj. Mj was amazed. he inspired the first race and then suffered things that no person should have to deal with. He was honored to be great is really important, but being humble is the difference between Michael Jordan and Tiger. Tiger's victory not only said a lot about Tiger, it actually said a lot about us we love you even more if you deal with the crap we do if you deal with the family problems we do if your life is imperfect and since you're on top of the throne you you come out you cry it's sad you fought emotionally and physically yesterday the

gave up so many things our favorite golfer won we have a redemption story that's what Hollywood writes every day we love those it reset the conversation about the goat I personally love that that's good for my business and the

in red Sunday is the best thing that has happened on a Sunday since the sopranos and let me add this and I am not blaming anyone for what I am about to say, no, I am not taking sides here, but this

country

is more More divided than ever, uncomfortably, and I'm 50 years old.

I have lived many lives, but never let anyone marginalize sports in your family. Sports shape us, heal us, strengthen us, connect us. It does what the government so often promises but fails to deliver. He turns the poor into riches and is cured. Yesterday sports did something else and I don't really remember it. I came in this morning and thought about this. I don't remember the last time. This time in America we were all fighting for the same thing, humiliated, physically physically fallen to the bottom, what a story spoke as much about us as it did about the tiger and let's never forget that sports do so many wonderful things yesterday, it finally connected us, thank you tiger.
