Silence following Williams's racial insult shows how little golf has changed

Full story: Golf.com

A few years ago, a trio of Sports Illustrated staffers were invited to tee it up at a fancy golf club in Westchester County, N.Y. When the first two arrived, the club staff was gracious and welcoming, helping to situate these outsiders, both of whom happened to be white guys.

If a person can't make an off-color (no pun intended) comment about another without the media spinning it into a racial riot we have lost all perspective. I grew up in a racially mixed neighborhood and our color or nationality was a common descriptive adjective. Perhaps this writer needs to get out in the real world and find out that racial slurs come from all sides. When was the last time you spent time in a place where you were referred to as Honky or some other insult to whites.
Steve Williams may be a jerk but so is his former boss whom I suspect has referred Williams in less than polite terms that the media failed to report because of Mr. Wood's star status.

Daily Horoscope for May 21

Aries

Someone is being very informative and helpful, especially if you want them to explain something that you don't understand, so listen carefully to what they tell you. This is also a great day for making some travel plans, perhaps by arranging to visit a friend you haven't seen in a while or by discussing where you should take your next holiday.
