‘TIDU List’ – Tiger’s Caddie, Shaq’s Diss & More
Once again, it’s time to check off some items on my “TIDU List” — Things I Don’t Understand:
• How Steve Williams can complain about the timing of his firing.
He earned an estimated $20 million on Tiger Woods‘ bag alone, which would place him around 32nd on the PGA Tour career money list. Yet, Williams had the nerve to whine about being dismissed, saying “I’ve stuck by him through thick and thin” and “I’ve wasted two years of my life, the last two years.”
Please. Elin showed more class, and she was actually aggrieved.
• Why anyone’s surprised that Albert Haynesworth plans to show up.
He’s already in danger of losing $847,000 unless he wins the appeal of last season’s four-game suspension for “conduct detrimental to the club.” There’s no way he’d risk losing more money — while making himself less desirable to interested teams – by failing to report when training camp opens. He’ll probably be on his best behavior.
Not because everyone’s watching, but to drive Mike Shanahan crazy.
