    I'm sure pain pills were involved. But guessing it had to be mixed with booze.

    I've been a fan of his, for sure. But man, this has just become sad.

    Definitely Black Friday. I heard the news after shopping at Best Buy, and was on my way to visit a sports bar-based titty bar at around 4 PM. Strangest titty bar visit ever for me - I kept looking at the sports TVs and reading the ESPN ticker and laughing, and the boobs were distracting. It was an ADD nightmare. Ooh, tits! Ooh, Tiger! Tits! Tiger!

    Given what he did and the harem that came out of the woodwork afterwards, I thought it was a rather fitting place to learn more of the breaking Tiger news.

    John Daly is winning on the (Champions) Tour and Tiger is getting pulled over for DUIs. Life's twists never cease to amaze.

    I use that line every once in a while. Used it recently.

    But no one ever gets it -- Michael Keaton in Mr. Mom!

    That calculator seems about right. The rough math is a drink (12 oz. 5% beer, 1.5 oz. liquor, 5 oz. wine) is .02 in BAC. The body processes .02 in an hour. So over two hours he burns two drinks leaving him right around .08. Plus one person's .08 is different from another's.

    If he's telling the truth (I doubt it) it's in one way worse than if he had too much to drink. The latter could be a serious lapse in judgment which will be processed through the system in due course. If it's meds, and after eight back surgeries you know he's had a few prescriptions, then he could be on a real spiral. And of course, it could be both.

    I read the story that he was booked at around 7:30 in the morning. Seems awful late in the morning for run-of-the-mill drunk driving ...
