Hello My faithful readers, I have been invited to participate in a "Blogger Idol". Over the next few weeks I will post my entry from the pre-determined category on my blog, and then link you to the blog where you will vote for me if you so choose. Or you may vote on any other post linked from that page that you like. Basically this is post one (a satire on a current event) check it out and if you like it follow any link I have posted and vote :)...
Growing up in a family that lives and dies by the saying "no news is good news", I have learned to keep my distance from "the paper" or any news program other than the Colbert Report. It is not that I am trying to hide from reality, I just choose to create my own, you should try it. I have enough crap to deal with on a daily basis between my worldwide blog and remembering to brush my teeth that I don't have time for airplane bombings and celebrity overdose's. Maybe if the news was a little more "chipper" I would subscribe more regularly, actually I probably wouldn't, but it is nice to think that I might. As I scoured the Internet for an uplifting story to re-report on only one such story caught my attention. Of course I am referring to the recent ever exciting Tiger Woods Saga.
For years Tiger has worked to popularize golf by combining the color of his skin and the caliber of his talent, but in late 2009 he took drastic measures to widen his crowd. He devised a plan so massive that no one saw it coming, except me. I have known for years that Tiger was going to ghetto-fy this historic gentleman's game I just didn't know how. I have finally finished my research and talked to my last source, so I am now ready to report my findings. Let me just say that although you may not approve of the course (No pun intended) that Tiger has taken, you will at least have to respect his careful planning.
For years Tiger has fooled us into believing that he was the Steve Urkel of golf, pants held high above his waist and shirt tucked in, the only part of the costume that lacked were the suspenders. He sacrificed the use of products he loved in order to endorse things he would never normally come near such as Accenture, Buick, Tag Heuer, and Nike. Lets not forget how he had a Barbie decoy wife for years to get us to buy into his whole "good boy" persona. For years he has faked his true being in order to lure us all in, and as soon as he was sure we swallowed the pill, he changed the game. In one last magnificent charade he had every bleached out trailer jockey he's piped over the years call in to CNN and "spill the beans"... Most of the world believed that this all happened by accident, but I am here to tell you this was his plan to Happy Gilmorize golf once and for all... Allow me to briefly explain my theory.
The women. My sources tell me that he paid all 15-20 (I lost count) of these women $10,000.00, a $250 gift card to Waffle House, and the first season of "Glee" for them to call in and tattle on him. This had a few benefits for him that no one else picked up on. First, this is the only way his money hungry wife would leave him and take the baby, and as everyone knows the first step in being a black sports legend is that you have to be referred to as a "baby daddy". The next benefit is that he knew this was the only way his lame sponsors would ever drop him. He was stuck in these contracts pretty much until he retired, but he found the perfect way to make them want to drop him. While at the same time he will be a little more appealing to the brands that he actually wants to endorse (mentioned later). Another important benefit is to briefly take all eyes off of your sport and put them on yourself, he did this like all the pro's before him, Kobe, O.J., Vick, Johnson, Iverson, Williams, just to name a few. So far Tiger has played his part perfectly.
Now you may ask what happens to Tiger in the future? Now normally this information would be highly secretive and classified but I feel like this is the perfect arena for me to share my insider information.
First off Tiger is not on a break right now, not at all. He is in the studio with Timbaland recording his first album, this is what any real star has to do in order to really "pop off". Don't worry though, he is not going to be singing about the divorce, his first CD is going to focus more on the hardships he had growing up at the country club and all that shit. He is already writing out contracts with all of his new sponsors, Playboy, Hennessy, FUBU, Escalade, and Popeye's just to name a few. He has retired all the trailer trash and has now been linked to everyone from Rihana to Tyra to Oprah, don't hate, he's not married any more so he doesn't have to narrow down to just one lady. He is now in his 3rd week of filming his new reality show called, "I Wood, Wood You?" its sort of like Elimidate, but he is the only contestant. You guys know you can't be a real powerhouse these days unless you have your own reality show... He is still going to be the front-man for all of the new golfing games in 2010, but rather than being made by EA Sports the makers of all of the Grand Theft Auto games have taken over production...
Since Tiger is really the only reason that people watch golf he pretty much has them "by the balls". They allowed him to implement 20 new rules for the next year. I got a leaked list of the first 10.
1. The new Lil Wayne CD plays on every tee box on the front 9 holes.
2. The new JayZ CD plays on the back nine, they are only allowed to switch when he says.
3. He gets to use a cart, because he is Tiger Woods.
4. He can wear his FUBU sweat pants and T-shirts.
5. Each green has cheerleaders.
6. They play the tournaments he is in on BET.
7. Caddy's are now also called "wingmen".
8. He gets a shot of Hennessy for each birdie.
9. 2 shots for an Eagle.
10. They let Katt Williams be one of the announcers.
