    C) He's not crying JUST because he won or lost. There's extra emotion in the scene because of his father.

    Absolutely. I think the crying thing is cliche 99.9 percent of the time, but I was totally intrigued by this photo and made sure to catch the reruns to see the whole story (the long embrace with Evil Caddie Williams, and the supermodel wife). This was a very rare peek into Tiger's personality. As one writer wrote, the moment was completely gone a few minutes later in an interview; Tiger didn't even have puffy eyes or anything.

    We'll get plenty more of Tiger in the next 20 years, but we'll never see this again. So it works for me.

    Bob Knight's tears cause cancer. Good thing he never cries.

    When state tournament time rolls around -- especially for girls -- our photog comes to me and asks "who's most likely to lose?"

    He lives for the crying girl dejection shot.
