A Cherry on the Case

Tiger Woods won the athlete of the decade award and his spokesman in an attempt to put a positive spin on his current troubles said Tiger has nailed the Masters and to date no reported minors.

BMO field in Toronto has been deemed too small to play football in despite pleas from Argo officials that they rarely use the end zone anyway.

A doctor linked with Tiger Woods has been charged with being in possession of performance enhancing drugs. Who knew Viagra would be the next problem for Tiger?

After seeing the deal the Toronto Blue Jays got for Doc Holiday you have to wonder if they are taking advice from ex Argos coach Bart Andrus.

A doctor has blamed Don Cherry for causing concussions a claim vehemently denied by the CBC who say you are not supposed to watch Coaches Corner if you have a head injury.

The only people banging their heads on account of Cherry are fashion designers.

A group of people called Ice Edge has offered the NHL $140 million for the Phoenix Coyotes. The deal is conditional on approval from the NHL Board of Governors and a drug test for the Ice Edge CEO.

Bettman says there are many other individuals interested in purchasing the Coyotes although the number goes down when they are properly medicated.

5-A-Hole

Tough week for Tiger Woods as his wife is upset he is having affairs, black women are upset he is having affairs with white women and Adam Lambert says he owes him a kiss.
