Daily Dose: April 14 - The most discouraging quote of the week...

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

From the Masters was this, from Tiger Woods: "I learned my lesson there with the press," he said. "I'm not going to say anything."

He was referring to his pre-Masters Grand Slam talk about how winning four majors in one calendar year was "easily within reason." (Which it is, by the way).

i'm sad to hear this. I don't know about you, but I want the best athletes to tell me how great they are, and what they're going to do...and even if they fail, I love the anticipation of waiting for it.

I mean - how great was Muhammed Ali? Click here for a great compilation of his speeches of greatness. We love it. We want to hear it. And then we want to see it.

I hope a year from now, Tiger (or any other golfer for that matter) comes out and says winning the Grand Slam is "easily within reason."

Here's another fantastic Ali clip - actually listen to him. It's great stuff.
