Jason Sobel did a little article on Tiger's reaction and it basically said that yes, Tiger overacted but he does have a right to dispute the article.

I agree, he overreacted but he does have a right to get mad about it.

Jenkins is still pissed about Tiger not ever sitting down with him for a 1 on 1 interview.

Finally, read the full Jenkins article. It really just wasn't funny.

I don't think he meant it to be funny honestly, even though he labels it as satire. He just wanted to take a shot at Tiger for not granting him interview privilege over the years.

Tiger should have let the thing just blow over, but I can't fault him for caring. He's tried to do a lot for his PR the last few years, although much of it unsuccessfully.

Hell, at this point, at least it puts Tiger back in the news.

The fake interview read like it was posted on Clay Travis' website.

I'm not sure. #1, he's 84 years old. #2, he's probably forgotten, #3, he doesn't care, or #4 he's more worried about waking up in the AM.

I havent read this peice, but Jenkins has gotten really biter with his age. Used to be way more fun. Didnt take himself so seriously.

The topic has reached ESPN's First Take with Stephen A., Skip Bayless, & Michael Collins, ESPN's golf analyst. 5+ minutes of good discussion. Pretty much agreed that Jenkins crossed the line.

I dislike Tiger a fair amount, and think he's a pretty mediocre human being.

That said, the article really isn't very funny, and comes off as a little bitter. I just didn't find any wit in it at all. So while I think it's ridiculous for Tiger to get bitchy because someone impugns his questionable character, saying it was unprofessional and below the belt is true.

The link is to a 10 minute session David Feherty did with Dan Patrick. He supports Tiger.
