Broadcaster Kelly Tilghman has apologized. Tiger Woods has accepted it. But the Rev. Al Sharpton says it isn't good enough.
In events resembling the prelude to the fall of radio host Don Imus, Sharpton appears to be marshaling his forces for a fight with the Golf Channel, which suspended Tilghman on Wednesday for a racially insensitive statement made last week.
Tilghman uttered the remark during coverage of Hawaii's Mercedes-Benz Championship on Friday, while she and and co-host Nick Faldo were bantering about how young golfers might challenge ever-dominant Woods.
Faldo said, "To take Tiger on, well yeah, they should just gang up for a while until ..."
"Lynch him in a back alley," Tilghman interrupted with a chuckle.
Tilghman is a far cry from Imus, the morning show host who was canned after calling the Rutgers University women's basketball team "nappy-headed hos." Unlike the disc jockey, who is known for his off color humor and outspoken remarks, she has no history of stoking racial tension.
I Know the Rules, Don't Post A Story W/out The Link"I'm sorry but I'm sick of Al Sharpton sticking his damn nose where it doesn't belong. If Tiger Woods said no harm no foul, that's the freaking end of it in my book. Just cause she's an idiot, doesn't give him the right to spew his f*ing mouth.
I liked the quote by Kevin Miller from KDKA in Pittsburgh sarcastically said that Sharpton should write a book of words we can or can't say.
