Double Bog-Wie!

I'm a couple of days late on this story, as I've neglected my ESPN updates, but Sirak couldn't be more right on Michelle Wie.

Thoughts: Whiner. Whiney-Girly-Baby. Can't play with the men.
Michelle says her injured left wrist is still not back to full strength and says
it would be unwise to take on the best players in the world while not at 100
percent.

Yeah sure, not at 100%. Or maybe it's unwise because you aren't good!

If you're going to play with the men, quit acting like an amateur. They won't respect you for the constant pull-outs, embarassing scores in the 80's, and did I mention, um, whining?

You don't see Lorena Ochoa, Suzann Peterson, Morgan Pressel, or even Annika Sorenstam walking off the course, do you? No, they are collecting large checks in their LPGA tournaments. If Wie had her head in the game and not soaring in the clouds chasing after the men, she might actually be competitive and take home a few checks of her own. It seems a tad more credible to get your money from your game- or your job- than endorsement deals? But what do I know about being a professional athlete -maybe I'm the one living in the clouds!

I can not stand women that whine about equal rights, think they're so great, and don't have the balls to back it up, no pun intended. Dominate in your own game. When you do, maybe we'll agree you're ready for the big boys.
