I don't appreciate Johnny Miller's biased remarks directed at Rocco Mediate. How dare he call him Tiger Wood's swimming pool guy? The media would not dare to insult any other ethnic group for fear of retribution in the press. Hollywood has made tons of money offending a group of hard working and family oriented individuals. Italians are always portrayed as belonging to the Mafia and as a group of thugs.
My grandparents came to the U. S. in the 1800's and worked hard to support their families. They were proud to be in America and what this country stands for and were willing to serve in the armed forces to protect this country.
Johnny Miller should apologize for this insult to Rocco and should not be a commentator on the golf tour because the next insult might be directed towards an Asian, Mexican, African-American, Muslim, Jewish and who knows who else he is prejudiced against.

Apparently you haven't tuned in to many of the golf tournaments that Miller works. He is an equal opportunity criticizer.

He has been called out numerous times for insulting every ethnic group and demographic you can think of. He spares no one.

Some find his antagonistic point-of-view and candor refreshing. Others find it insulting. Whihever camp you fall in, you can't say he is bland.
