This is more about political correctness then politics but maybe it is something we can discuss without the political lines being drawn.

Here is the deal in a nutshell, Woods cheated. Or Woods made very fundamental mistake in a job that is first a game built on rules and a game he has played since being a child. Every golfer, I would think, knows this rule. So why does him being caught on TV make a difference? But it does by the rules.

So what do you think? If an official, who should have in this case, caught him doing so he would have been kicked out of the tournament. Yet he was not, do you think it political correctness or advertisement dollars. If he does go on to win will it be forever tarnished?

Or is this something about nothing and rules no longer matter unless caught?
 
He should have been disqualified. No question about it.

At least he's choking today. So far. Can't really write him off yet.

GO ANGEL!!
 
Great finish, neither player lost it, one of them won it.
