So, I don't know how many of you keep up with golfing news, I usually only get interested during the major championships, but this one caught my eye. Apparently, some female anchor from the Golf network said that there is a lot of youth in the PGA, and that that youth should "lynch" Tiger Woods. I know that may not sound derogitory elsewhere, but at least in the U.S., it entails very strong racial connotations. What do you guys think?

BTW, she got suspended for 2 weeks, so it was a basic slap on the wrist.

kkk "lynched" blacks in the south, it is when you throw a rope over a low tree branch and hang someone.

That statement she made didn't seem to make sence, was she trying to say that the younger players should go out to beat him or that he was to blame for something.


Either way her wording was poor and probably got suspended for stupidity than anything.
