He really let fly with the expletives at the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, using just about all of the words you can't say on TV in one sentence. We all get upset over a bad golf shot, but Tiger should remember the camera is recording his every move (unlike the rest of us duffers), and learn to control the profanity like most of the other pros seem to have done.

I think you have selective memory here. I've heard some pretty choice epithets coming from Mickelson, Sutton, Singh, Faldo, and Price over the past few years. Tiger's transgressions stick in your mind because, well, because he's Tiger Woods and we tend to remember everything that the best golfer in the world does - both good and bad.

I disagree slightly with your comment. Tiger's "transgressions" - in the case of the U.S. Open - stuck in my mind because they were so evident. Yes, I've heard the occasional damn or sh** from Mickelson and a few others, but not loud and very profane outbursts like those of Tiger ("g-d- f-ing s-" comes to mind). Of course, if the networks would get their cameras out of his face every once in a while, and actually cover a few other golfers' performances occasionally, it wouldn't seem so bad.
