Tiger's Back Baby and moving all needles!
With his ever growing injury list, how long do you think he will last before another one stops him from competing?
1994: Left knee surgery
2002: Left knee surgery
2007: Left knee surgery
2008: Left knee surgery
2011: Left Achilles problems
2012: Left Achilles problems and lower back
2013: Left elbow strain, stiff back and neck
2014: Back spasms and surgery
Since coming back from the long break, he hasn't had a full healthy season.
Is he becoming too old? or is he having too little sex to keep him healthy?

Yeah right. The game is better off without the best player of the generation if not ever?

TV ratings say otherwise.
Personally I think he might need to throttle back to maintain longevity. Except for Scotty getting to number one and Rory winning after his bust up, the last 12 weeks have been pretty boring on the golfing landscape.

I am not a fan, but he certainly makes things more exciting.

Just my opinion, I'm entitled to it.
I haven't missed watching him play.
Every sport has a time in a generation when a great player leaves or his talent declines, and the sport goes on....

I'll rephrase it, better meh, more entertaining yes.
More guys winning, some lesser ranked and even no name guys popping up.
Kaymer recently is a good example.
When tigers in a tournament it all about tiger, none else gets a look in.
Even if he's hacking it all eyes and comments are on him and the TV coverage.
I like the fact some of the lesser knowns and young guns are getting some more of the spotlight these days.
I never once said tiger wasn't the best I've seen, just think the game will go one without him....

I'll agree with you there, it is always too much about Tiger even if he's not a factor. I can appreciate the no names getting up there but it doesn't get my heart rate up like having an event where Tiger is in contention. No matter how much I think he's a dick, he's still the best.

I often wonder what pro golf would be like if Tiger never came along. I think it can only be good for golf with the 'comeback' this week especially with Adam, Rory and Martin playing great golf lately.
