Tiger's impact, no kidding
Many may doubt the recent decision to appoint Tiger as the athlete with the most impact in the last year. They are wrong.
Impact doesn't have to carry a positive meaning with it. There is no one who has affected the sports world more than the man who wears red shirts on Sundays.
Think about the definition of impact. If a ten thousand pound meteor falls off the Empire State building, it will make create a giant crater on the street below. The same can be said for Tiger's fall from grace.
There is no doubt he was at the height of the sports world prior to Thanksgiving of this year. There is also no doubt he is headed towards the bottom now. The impact of that nine iron swing from wife Elin affected more than his mouth. Each mistress that comes out of the woodwork brings him down a little more.
A sure sign you have fallen into the pit of personal disgrace is when Donald Trump is giving advice to you directly on the Larry King show. Your life has been impacted in a bad way.
No one in the last year has rocked the sports world more than Tiger. I only hope he can begin that climb back up that ladder to once again become the world's greatest athlete. The world will have a whole new opinion if he gets back to Augusta, wins another green jacket and holds his two kids in front of the television cameras.
