The Irrelevant Comment
This blog is written mostly tongue in cheek. Some points may be informative. Please provide your feedback.
If you suffer from self-irrelevancy, please seek professional advice.
Hello. Kelly Tilghman of The Golf Channel has been suspended for two weeks by the network for saying that players hoping to challenge Tiger Woods should "lynch him in a back alley". Kelly immediately apologized to the Woods camp, and they stated it's a non-issue. I agree, the comment is irrelevant.
Why? First, broadcasters on-air live for hours have every opportunity to mess up. In my one and only 5 minute radio interview, that was the only thought going through my mind. Don't use profanity. Don't offend. It shows how good these broadcasters are that they don't mess up often.
Second, there was no profanity. And believe it or not, there was no racial slur. If this comment was made about a white golfer, it would've generated no buzz. Tiger is thought of as a golfer, not a black golfer.
Save blogging and outrage for something relevant. This issue is dead. Let it go.
Regards,
Irrelevant
