Tiger Woods Is Entering The Best Phase Of His Career Whether You Believe It Or Not

Tiger Woods. A name invoking many things depending on who you ask. Some would think incredible golfer, some would think ew what a pig, some would think he's past his prime, some would think "doesn't he do 'roids?", and others would think "does he even play still?"

I am here to say with a resounding yes, TIGER IS BACK! Now you might be thinking, yes Liam, he's been back for a while now; along with having a plethora of back issues. Simply in terms of net worth and career earnings (from endorsements and the course), Tiger blows away the competition, including legends of the day such as Bobby Jones, Jack Nicklaus, Trent Jones Jr., and Arnold Palmer.

In case you had any doubts to this claim, Nike, the world's largest athletic apparel maker, still emblazons the classic "TW" logo on everything from shirts to hats to golf balls to golf shoes. This is where a large portion of Tiger's income comes from; he is nearing a PNW (personal net worth of 1 BILLION)! This makes him one of the highest paid athletes in all of history, which is fairly interesting considering that golf at one point was written off as a dying sport.

In the late 90's, golf wasn't that fun to watch, until TW came on to the scene and captivated the global golf audience for many years, then, about four to five years ago amid personal sex scandal and back injuries, almost saw his career on the course slip away. However, TW would not even consider letting this happen. Even though it looked like Tiger was giving up on the game that he helped build, nothing could be further from the truth.

An impressive come back in the recent years, even by Tiger Standards, and an impressive series of recent accolades on the course will forever cement Tiger Woods as the best player in the history of golf and be a household name for decades to come.

Yep, that's right hopefully, as long as I'm still alive, I'll be able to tell my great-grandson, Liam Edward Lindy III, about the forever-glorious Tiger Woods.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
