Ten Most Outrageous Stories From Outlandish 2010
By Clay Travis - AOL NewsThis column comes the day after Tucker Carlson said Mike Vick should have been executed for his treatment of dogs and the Sugar Bowl CEO admitted he lobbied Ohio State to keep its players eligible to "protect the integrity" of the game. Protect the integrity of the bowl game at the expense of a university and NCAA integrity? Makes perfect sense in the Alice in Wonderland through the looking glass world of college football. Execute someone for a low end felony? Equally absurd rationale. Both of these stories serve as further evidence that 2010 represents the most absurd year in the history of ...
One Hectic Year Later, Tiger Still Trying to Get Back on Track
By Mick Elliott - AOL NewsOne year later, it is not an anniversary to celebrate. Nevertheless, the date's significance is indisputable. At some point in the distant future, depending on how things eventually play out, it might even be considered right there beside the day the music died. Last year, in the early morning hours of Nov. 27, Tiger Woods, the world's most famous golfer, crashed his car into a fire hydrant outside his gated-community home in Orlando, Fla., and all sorts of dirty laundry came spilling out. Initially there was alarm. Television news crawls announced Woods had been involved in a traffic ...

Tiger Woods Becoming Marketable Again
By FanHouse Staff - AOL NewsTiger Woods used to be one of the most highly-sought after pitchmen. That is, until the sex scandal that enveloped his personal, public and private life; after which Woods became persona non-grata to all those who used to line up to sign him to endorsement deals. But with the one-year anniversary of the car crash that started that whole drama approaching, Woods is slowly completing his PR makeover, and marketers are starting to buy it. According to agent Mark Steinberg, Woods has engaged in "several constructive conversations," and that a survey to gauge Woods' public image has yielded very ...
Tiger Woods' Ex Finally Talks: The Biggest Revelations
By Carl Franzen - AOL News(Aug. 25) -- Contrary to earlier reports that suggested she would be silenced by a strict divorce settlement, Tiger Woods' ex-wife Elin Nordegren is roaring back into the public spotlight with a candid interview in the new issue of People magazine. You can head over to People online to read a summary of Elin's disclosures, and/or buy the issue yourself for the full story (plus "exclusive photos"!) when it comes out Friday.

Tiger's Baaack! And Boys Will Be Boys
By Luisita Lopez Torregrosa - Politics DailyAh, what was all that fuss about Tiger Woods? Let's face it, the guy served five months in hell for his sins and now it's time to forgive and forget and play golf. Let the tournament begin! Here's how it went for Tiger Thursday, on his return to the game after months in exile. Teeing off in early afternoon at the opening round of the Masters at the pristine Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, he received an ovation from the crowd. Shouts and applause from the fans and absolute reverence from the media followed him through the afternoon. Oh, he played well, maybe not up to the level of ...

Camel Wrestling a Saliva-Soaked Tradition
By David Moye - AOL News(April 7) -- Tiger Woods may be the big thing at the Masters Tournament this week, but in rural parts of Turkey and Afghanistan, many of the locals are still more interested in camels. That's because folks from Kabul to Istanbul are big followers of the ancient sport of camel wrestling, which is as popular as the Masters or the NCAA Final Four are in America. Of course, animal rights supporters find the ancient sport deplorable. Mustafa Najafizada, AP Camels go hump-to-hump in this March 22 event in Mazar-i-Sharif, Balkh province, north of Kabul, Afghanistan. Mostly a winter sport, camel ...
AT&T Ends Tiger Woods Sponsorship
By not in system - AOL NewsNEW YORK (Dec. 31) - AT&T Inc. said Thursday it would no longer sponsor Tiger Woods, joining Accenture in dropping support for the world's top golfer, who's taking a break from the sport to focus on his marriage after his admitted infidelity. The phone company hasn't used Woods' image extensively in advertising, but its logo appeared on his golf bag.
