After the apparent glut of golf-related RAVEs, I needed to re-plant my feet on terra negativo and reveal the darker side of golf:
1. Jerks who yell "get in the hole!" after every shot heading remotely toward the green.
2. Tiger Woods' quivering bottom lip, when something doesn't go his way (e.g. when he doesn't win).
3. TV broadcasters who drone on repetitively in the studio, when there's play under way on the course. I don't give a rat's ass what Chris Berman's favorite hole is at Pebble Beach. Just show the play!
4. Chris Berman as a golf commentator. He has the presence of a wrestling commentator, and should therefore stick to Football (the US kind).
5. People who think Tiger Woods is "everyman", the perfect example of a sportsman, thereby ignoring the way he has abused his wealth and elevated position, and has arrogantly and selfishly mistreated his family.
