http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/sports-golf/20130522/Sergio-Tiger/ Tiger just can't seem to get rid of his 'black' card yet again it's being assumed that the man eats fried chicken :smt037
Niggas probably happy Sergio made that remark. Tiger tries to hide his blackness as much as possible. Sergio legitimized him now.
Here we go with this BS again, Tiger has NEVER tried to hide his Blackness, he has ALWAYS said that he embraces all of this ethnic backgrounds. A thoughtless, racist, asinine comment from a majorless, choke prone, insanely jealous player does not "legitimize" anything. Looks like Darius Rucker is also fighting similar ignorance and stupidity... http://search.yahoo.com/search?cs=bz&p=Darius Rucker racist tweet&fr=fp-tts-900&fr2=ps Cool new song from him [YOUTUBE]hvKyBcCDOB4[/YOUTUBE]
Another slip of the tongue like Fuzzy Zellar.....what this says is what they really think about him is right under the surface.....they can't help themselves.......the damn jealously and bitterness over his poise and success is just too much......How in the hell is this fried-chicken eating ______ able to continue dominate the sport.....
Fried chicken. It was and still is enjoyed by everyone regardless of race. Like pizza and Chinese food, it is an art form appreciated for just about any pallete. Tiger Woods is no exception. He probably eats fried chicken with a side of collard greens and white rice. Collard greens are eaten by white people, too. Right along with watermelon. It's only food for fuck's sake. Not a racial stamp of classification.
It's sad, no pathetic, that people think racially loaded comments like this are a deathknell for black folks. It shows a lack of creativity if you ask me. Is that the best material you got cuzzy? "Fried chicken"? [YOUTUBE]phe2_kP9dvI[/YOUTUBE]
All I know is for the past 15+ years, Tiger has made every single person on the PGA tour a lot richer. Sergio needs to go sit his ZERO major winning ass down somewhere.
Just because someone has a lot of money, it doesn't make it any of your business how or where they choose to spend it.
Not just that, some people donate anonymously, as not to take away from the sincerity of their donations. They used to say this about MJ, until he had to reveal just how much he had donated anonymously to shut up his naysayers.
Darius Rucker exposed the racist to the world. Imho, even when he was with Hootie & The Blowfish, he encountered some racist audience members who chanted, "Hootie-hoo, hootie-hoo." His sound was more country than pop- rock-blues. No, more like folk. He is where he wants to be. The racist forgot about Charlie Pride, Ray Charles(yes, he did country)and Trini Triggs(he was discovered by Garth Brooks). There was one other who was famous for playing the harmonica. He was inducted into The Country Hall Of Fame a few years ago.
Seriously, even a cursory web search would show that Tiger does A LOT for minority charities and charities in general.. A lot of Black and Minority students benefit from his scholarship programs..http://web.tigerwoodsfoundation.org/programs/scholarships/index TWLC hosts 40 military youth at Summer Academy. About the Foundation What We Do At the Tiger Woods Foundation, we believe in college access for underserved youth. TWLC-DC Career Orientation Program The TWLC-DC Capitol Hill campus will run various programs during daytime hours during the academic year, including serving all ninth-grade Chavez students with a class dedicated to integrated technology research and presentation. In addition, local elementary and middle schools will be selected to participate in custom hands-on science activities and local educators will be invited to attend integrated science and technology workshops, as well as special topic presentations. Here is a partial list of some charities that receive support from his foundation, a lot of minority, or minority community supporting organizations here. Boys & Girls Club of Las Vegas Concerts Competitions and Musical Development Community Counseling Service Home for Boys Center for Independent Living Child Haven Children's Hospital Los Angeles Children of the Night Communities in Schools Greater Las Vegas Inner City Games Las Vegas Assistance League Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce Foundation - Leadership Las Vegas Youth Program Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Nevada Nevada Commission for National & Community Service Starlight Children's Foundation Before founding his multiple learning centers Tiger would do many clinics to raise money for charities, always with multiple outreaches to Black and minority organizations. Tiger certainly has his flaws, we all do to some degree, but trying to "hide" who he is is not one of them. Further proof, one of the first things he said after winning the '97 Masters.. "I wasn't the pioneer, Charlie Sifford, Lee Elder, Ted Rhodes, those are the guys who paved the way. All night I was thinking about them, what they've done for me and the game of golf. Coming up 18, I said a little of prayer of thanks to those guys. Those guys are the ones who did it.'' Go to 7:55, clearly embracing, not hiding. [youtube]iFlash7tAOM[/youtube]
Niiiice. I think people have this idea that it's incumbent upon black/brown people with money to jump up and down when they contribute charitably to communities. Real people move in silence......
Tiger had opened a school for kids to go to learn anything they wanted to learn, including golf. This was featured on 60 Minutes. This was when he was winning at The Masters. Before the cheating scandal.
Everyone that "claims" him for their own agenda always forget he is half Thai, yes half Asian....u wouldn't think tho....
My ex bf used to say this about WP, in general. In his Navy days, guys would be nice to his face or when sober, but get a few beers in them....
One of Garcia's sponsors has also weighed in on the matter. "Sergio Garcia's recent comment was offensive and in no way aligns with TaylorMade-adidas Golf's values and corporate culture," the statement read. "We have spoken with Sergio directly and he clearly has regret for his statement and we believe he is sincere. We discussed with Sergio that his comments are clearly out of bounds and we are continuing to review the matter." Bottom line is Adidas wants to be able to continue to market to the huge black demographic that buys Adidas products. Sergio ain't sorry...the folks that sign his checks are!
