Haha...wow.
I never thought I'd ever mention him once, let alone twice. More reason to shed ESPN.
The commercial... since, even the news shoved it down my throat...
Are you kidding me? It makes that multi-million dollar, rarely shown Jerry Seinfeld/Bill Gates flop look like Raging Bull.
People of America please prove me wrong and recognize this ad for the shameless, ridiculous garbage that it truly is.
Dave Zirin positively unloaded:
"In the context of our enduring global fever-dream, a tacky ad in which Nike and Tiger conspire to exploit the memory of Earl Woods is hardly that big a deal--particularly since if Earl Woods were alive, he would have supported this exercise in grave robbing 100 percent.
he corrosively continues:
"But any joy at the discomfort of grown men with ten figure bank accounts named Hootie and Billy is outpaced by the sheer cultural rock bottom that this ad represents, not to mention what it says about Woods himself."
Yep.
I was already in a great mood, but any writing this hot, blue and righteous only makes the world a little more tolerable.
Cheers.
