Lockhart Line 4.8 - Tiger's New Nike Ad Stirs the Pot






The booming baritone of the late Earl Woods awakens from the grave and he has questions for Tiger. Among the questions that the post-humus parent wants answered in the latest TV ad from Nike, Inc., is if Tiger has learned his lesson? No, disrespect to the man asking the question but, the answer is a resounding, No!


With all of the prying from tabloid media outlets, Woods hasn't had time to learn much of anything in the few months since the news of his string of tawdry infidelities began making national headlines. Besides, Woods spent several years being a turd so he's going to need more than a few months to learn anything. Some will say that the TV ad is out too soon for any real reflection to occur by Woods or anyone else close to the situation.

Many others will say that it is downright distasteful for the disgraced Woods to try to bank on his indiscretions with the aid of his deceased father.

I disagree with that notion entirely.

We live in a "green society" and by "green" I'm not talking about clean coal technologies or hybrid cars. I'll borrow a phrase from rapper DJ Quik, who once famously said, "If it don't make dollars, then it don't make sense!" Now that Woods is back playing the game of golf, anyone that gets back on the Woods band wagon will be making more green than they've ever seen!

Cavs Stop Believing—Magic DethroneThe King 103-90 Earn Trip to Finals


The Orlando Magic built on a 16-point to start the fourth quarter of Game Six then unleashed a lethal assault dethroning King James and the Cavaliers 103-90, earning the right to play in the NBA Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers.

"Well I just think this team all year long has shown an incredible amount of heart coming back," said an impassioned Stan Van Gundy as he accepted the Eastern Conference trophy. "When people...you, know Jameer went down everybody thought, we were done. And we were behind in the first two series' everybody thought were done. This team just keeps fighting back. They deserve it."

A chorus of the famed "Na, na, naaa, na, na, he,y hey, hey good-bye" chant could be heard ringing throughout the Amway Center as the final seconds of the fourth quarter ticked off the clock.

The final buzzer sounded, confetti filled the court and the Orlando Magic became the 2009 Eastern Conference champions!

Guess Nike will have to stop running the cute MVP (most valuable puppet) ads since No. 23 will be fishing for the Finals.

Superman Lives!!
