Seriously, you can't think that that's all that this is. That I'm rooting for Tiger Woods instead of Charles Howell III just because he wins more, so I can cheer more.
That's like accusing a Christian of being a "front-runner" when he expresses his love for the Christ Jesus.
I'm "rooting" for the fact that we're witnessing GOLF HISTORY right in front of us, which of course is boring and meaningless unless you are a fan of golf, but if you are, then there is no way NOT to root for Tiger, because it is one of those once-a-century kind of things which you just need to be overjoyed to be able to witness.
Until 1996, professional golf was a bunch of really talented white guys in bad pants. Then the freak of nature came on the scene, and it's an amazing freak to watch.
You gotta be happy just to be here to appreciate it.
