    LMAO. How did I know that a Tiger praising thread would bring out a "The Cat" meltdown. Classic. I'd hate to be a Mickelson fan right now.

    Are you saying Phil is in good physical shape?

    His belly is huge for a pro athlete as are several pro golfers who would perform better if they were in shape.

    Do you disagree with any of my points? If you do, please tell me instead of making some ridiculous blanket insult where I have no clue what you're talking about. A meltdown would imply I was making unreasonable points... what are those?

    As for Tiger, I have zero problems with the guy. Why would you "hate" to be a Mickelson fan? I'm not sure what you're getting at here. Tiger had a great week and won the tournament. How does that reflect poorly on Mickelson? Does it show that he's not as good as Tiger at his best? Umm, the answer to that is duh. Did I say otherwise?

    yeah really.

    The fact that Mickelson has elevated his game but still can't stay with Tiger is what is so amazing about this. This was it, this was put up or shut up time on the PGA tour and Tiger went out and simply dominated while Phil went and played like a b**** in a major for the 100th time out of 102 or whatever, I don't care about him, he's a fat, pompous ****.

    Long live Tiger Woods.

    Stop being such a Tiger hater. Figjam has been your great white hope for far too long, and now that his little semi-glory time is over you're going to have to deal with the fact that Tiger Woods is the greatest golfer in the history of the sport.

    So you're going to dodge my questions... what a stunning tactic from you... I never would've seen that coming. :rolleyes:

    What's so amazing about this is your complete hypocrisy and obsession with anything related to Mickelson. I asked you to give me a number of what it would take for Mickelson to gain your respect after the third round of last year's PGA. You gave me that number, and it was 3. Well, he got to that this year... and now he still "sucks." What a surprise. :rolleyes:

    And now, all of a sudden, because he's not as good as the greatest golfer to ever play the game, he sucks, "played like a b****", and is an ass? You're so transparent it's not even funny. You "don't care" about Mickelson, yet your first comment in a thread that has nothing to do with him at all is some long-winded diatribe about how much he sucks? That, buddy, is the exact opposite of not caring... that's borderline obsessive.

    All I'm asking for is some simple evidence, instead of blanket insults. (Yes, I do know you'll either dodge the question, ignore it, or utilize humor as a diversion... I'm used to the routine by now.) But, it's worth a try.

    Can you please tell me how I've "hated" on Tiger Woods? Can you please tell me what I've said to imply that I didn't think he was the greatest golfer in the history of the sport?

    Can you please tell me how Phil is "over"? He went six majors without winning in between the 2004 Masters and 2005 PGA, and then won his next two... can you please analyze how that isn't a possibility to happen again?

    You seem to have this mental block that anyone who likes anything to do with Phil Mickelson thinks he's better than Tiger Woods or doesn't respect Tiger Woods' greatness, and that's just not the case. But if you're going to make such outlandish accusations, could you please just show a little evidence? Whether it be quotes from me, analysts, other fans... I'm asking for a little evidence to support what you're saying. That's all.

    Tiger is better than Phil, and a lot of other people.

    I am seriously sitting here giggling to myself.

    You're trying to start a heated debate over the ****ing PGA.


    lololol.

    The point is... Mickelson is not Tiger Woods and never will be, but I'm sick of him being the clear cut #2 golfer in the world. In the world rankings the seperation between him and Tiger in points is the same as the seperation between him and the 135th ranked golfer, he's a very, very distant 2nd.

    Face facts, You're a Figjam Apologist and a Tiger hater. Tiger is the MJ of Golf, he will always come through and get the job done, he puts asses in the seats, he is the best thing to ever happen to the PGA. I wouldn't even watch golf if he wasn't playing. Phil is more like Karl Malone, he's a pompous prick who's had some success but will never be able to hold a candle to the greatness of Tiger and nobody will cry when he gains another 75 pounds and goes from struggling to keep up with Tiger, to struggling to beat Jon Daly to the snack table.

    He's the clear cut #2 major championship golfer in the world. He's won three majors in the last three years and finished top 3 in three more... that track record clearly outshines what Singh, Els and Goosen have done over that time period. Is there something you dispute about that?

    I'm a Tiger hater? In what universe? Can you please show just one example of this? You calling me a Tiger hater is about the equivalent of me randomly calling you a Yao Ming hater.

    As for Phil... let's go with that analogy. Let's say he's the Karl Malone of the PGA. Nope, Malone wasn't as good as Jordan. He can't hold a candle to him. He's also likely the greatest power forward to ever play the game and has a spot reserved for him as a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer. I'm going to share a dirty little secret that I hope doesn't leave this thread... Hakeem probably wasn't as good as MJ either. Does that mean Hakeem sucks, or that every one of Hakeem's fans hates Michael Jordan?

    Get the mental block out of your head. Just because you're not the absolute best doesn't mean you suck. Just because you like Phil Mickelson doesn't mean you dislike Tiger Woods. And just because you say "face facts", it doesn't actually mean anything unless you provide evidence of a couple of those so-called "facts."

    The only reason someone would like Phil Mickelson so much is because they secretly hate Tiger Woods and wish someone else would step up and knock him off his throne. You are obsessed with Mickelson because you secretly crave Tiger's demise. You are just a typical spin doctor so you carefully try to plant little bits about Tiger being a great golfer to try and take away your opponents leg to stand on. Its a very good scheme but you can't pull the wool over my eyes.

    You're psychoanalyzing a person you've never met watching a few golf tournaments, and I'm the spin doctor? Classic!

    I like Phil Mickelson because I think he's an excellent player whose style is fun to watch and is more genuine than most athletes today. It's not because of any bizarre secret hate I hold for Tiger Woods. I think Tiger is a great guy and a great golfer. Can you please show me where I've said or hinted otherwise? (and I mean actual statements, not you throwing out random conspiracy theories)

    You're also dodging the question I've posed to you several times in this thread. If Phil is the Karl Malone to Tiger's Michael Jordan, would saying that Karl Malone "sucked" as a basketball player be an accurate statement in your opinion? You said Phil "sucked" as a golfer, so I'm just continuing the analogy...

    No, he looks relatively fat. Average people don't have man boobs.

    Maybe not in Hollywood, but I'm talking real world here. Phil Mickelson almost looks skinny compared to the people I see on a day to day basis. I don't know what you do or where you're from, but there are millions of people around the world who would kill to be able to look like Mickelson does and be as fit as he is.

    OMG, who would have thought that a thread about golf would produce one of the greatest flame wars in clutchfans history...

    ...oh, and sorry Cuttino, but Phil Mickelson isn't the Karl Malone of golf, he's the Oliver Miller of golf...

    LOL!!! Oliver Miller? What about Prince Fielder?

    Maybe Phil should stay where he's at since it's got him to #2. Remember what happened when dumpy looking David Duval lost a lot of weight. I'll never forget when I saw him in person at the SHO a long time ago and how physically unfit he was.

    Guys at least Mickelson has a major now. Remember back when he would ALWAYS finish 2nd behind Tiger?
