    Like I said earlier, The Bobby Orr of hockey. Better on one leg than anybody else on two.

    No, Oz. He didn't mean Retief Goosen.

    He meant this.

    And this.

    And this.

    Yeah. I call myself on it. And I feel stupid.

    This will be the fourth MASSIVE operation to that knee.

    And he will be lucky to tee it up for next year's Masters.

    The 1972 Dolphins were last seeing shipping Dom to Nicklaus' compound.

    And Jack refused it.

    If they did, they're awfully short-sighted.

    I think I would have folded, but each man has to play his cards the way he sees fit.

    As I wrote at the time, he consciously avoided the knee swiveling uppercut for a much more safe motion.

    This is DEFINITELY a playing-as-Tiger-Woods career-threatening surgery.

    You're right... I thought it was a different poster.

    I'm sorry.

    I made a comment, but never said he was pretending. I'd say "playing it up a bit more on bad shots" would be a more fitting description of my thoughts. The injury obviously was bad, but from what I saw I wouldn't change my view. He was definitely grimacing more when he was launching drives into the gallery. Doesn't mean I think he was faking.

    Are we missing something here? Let's say it is, for the sake of argument, a "MASSIVE" surgery. Well, hasn't he already proven he can win a major on one leg? Unless they saw that mofo off, he's not done winning majors. Not by a long shot.

    Let's also say, conservatively, he sits the next three majors out.

    That's still going to leave him, what, 24 majors before he turns 40?

    If everyone who believed he was hurt starts quoting themselves, it's going to be a hell of a long thread.

    But congratulations, Nostradamus. Here's a nice pat on the back. Got tonight's lottery numbers?
