Show Recap - Thursday March 11, 2010

Looks like Tiger Woods is finally ready to come out of hiding, and rescue the sport that made him rich, deviant and entitled. The New York Post reports he has hired former George W. Bush aide, Ari Fleischer, to help him formulate his re-entry strategy. And that he may be targeting the Arnold Palmer Invitational March 25 for his return.

Eldrick, as always I'm here to help, not hate. And I'm not looking to take any food off Fleischer's plate. But, I can save you a lot of time and money, Tiger. You don't need to throw down for some big-time PR consultant; here's your strategy: show up...get in front of the media…actually answer some questions this time. Own it. Swing your bats…win…go home…stay there. Don't cheat on your wife. Don't think you're above the law and that the rules that apply to rest of us, don't apply to you because since you've worked so hard…at golf. Don’t be arrogant. And treat people a little better. Oh, and win. You'll be fine.

If he can do that, and doesn't let his pride infect his dome, he can end up in a good spot and not spend his last few days wasting away on bad team, chipping away at his legacy. No names mentioned… Emmitt Smith.

And when asked point blank if he would accept a role as third down back behind Adrian Peterson, L.T. didn't blink: "I don't (have a problem with it) I know I can catch the ball really well out of the backfield, can run routes and that's something I've always looked for as I got older in my career. Being able to fall back on that…" I like that call. No, I love that call! That's a very, very good call.

It's never easy for a future hall of famer to accept he can no longer do what he used to do. And that's... More »
