Cheyenne Woods–
Inquiring Minds Want To Know
What’s all the hush about? Why is this subject matter so taboo, for me and for you, inquiring minds want to know; I want to know. Hell, I think the whole golfing fraternity wants to know, so, why hands off?
If there’s a price, we’ll gladly pay it, just tell us the cost; Now that Cheyenne Woods has emerged on the scene, it’s obvious that Tiger has a brother, even if he is from another mother; Earl Woods was Cheyenne’s grandfather, as much as he is Sam Alexis’.
When are these golf TV channel analysts and beat reporters going to dare to go there? They have carte blance access to Tiger—outside the ropes and between practices; I don’t think it’s an invasion of his privacy; things like this are ordinary nowadays. They fall under mediocrity; he’s a world-known celebrity, the first billion dollar athlete, he’s what most of us wish we could be; don’t you agree?
Even Cheyenne’s mother—what’s her name? Nobody seems to know! What a shame; maybe after Cheyenne wins fifteen or sixteen majors on the LPGA Tour we will eventually get the scoop. But until then, I guess we’re supposed to just remain naïve and in the dark and go on about our merry way continuing to pretend to be a typical dope.
It’s 2012, the 21st century, what happened to the days when I was my Brother’s keeper? This mystery relationship between Cheyenne’s father and Tiger is one of the best kept, yet, it’s truly a classic sleeper; Tiger, we love you brother; we support you one hundred percent, it’s nice to see you with your swagger back, appearing extremely confident. When you tell us that you’re almost there, in regards to working on your game, we would like to tell you that we’ve heard that story a million times before. Tell us something that we DON’T ALREADY KNOW, like your brother’s name.
Until next month,
