Show Stopper: Tiger Woods Wins 14th Major, Slows Wall Street, Rules Internet

Realizing that this is probably my 10th posting about Tiger, I decided to write it anyway. How can you not be impressed with this man. Gimping around on one healthy leg, he managed to birdie the 18th hole twice to force Rocco Mediate to beat him on an extra hole. Unfortunately for Rocco, the clock struck midnight and his time to shine was over.

Not to take anything away from Rocco - because he played unbelievable and didn't even think of blinking against the world's number one - but wasn't Tiger's performance simply stunning? I can understand the frustration that some viewers may have with the Johnny Millers and Chris Bermans bringing up Tiger's knee injury every 3 seconds, but for Eldrick to visibly limp around the golf course and still manage to win his 14th major is mind boggling. He really is that good.

Seems as though millions of others across the world thought the same. Here's an interesting little story about how Tiger slows down trading on Wall Street.

Forget about the 25,000 people in San Diego who played hooky from work and followed the action down at Torrey Pines on Monday, how about the schlubs like myself who streamed most of the action, setting a record along the way.
