    THIS BEER'S
    FOR YOU
    VIJAY

    Singh Beer

    BEER OF CHAMPIONS

     

    Although few notice

    there is ONE other

    very Black golfer

    on the PGA Tour

    more noticeable

    with Tiger gone

    What Vijay Singh has  proven two of the last three weekends with IMPRESSIVE PGA Tour  Victories is that Golf can be just as exciting to follow and watch in Tiger Woods' absence even more when there is another Champion Black Golfer on the Course.

    Vijay Singh may be  Fijian rather than African AMERICAN. So what.  Is there any doubt his  ancestors are straight out of AFRICA the same as African AMERICANS or  that here in America he is "received" as AFRICAN American. What clearly  separates Vijay from Tiger is that Vijay does not go around denying his Blackness as Woods does by deed and omission.

    Let's turn to this past  Weekend

    The Barclays Tournament

    1st Round of the FedEx  Cup

    Tiger NO where to be seen

    WHAT A FINISH !!!

    If it had been Tiger the  media would be shouting it at the top of their White Lungs proclaiming  Tiger ever GREATER than God ( again ) for the heroic impossible finish  coming back again and again throughout the Last Round tying the Almost  Great Sergio Garcia and Up And Coming Kevin Sutherland and FORCING a  Play-off on the 18th hole.

    Then Vijay sinking a Birdie from 27 feet after Sergio first sank a Birdie from 27 feet on  the first sudden-DEATH hole poised to claim his Play-off Victory  confidence RADIATING from his face NO way Vijay would duplicate his  almost impossible Feat BUT VIJAY DID ! Imagine if it had been Tiger the  action would have halted while the Fans hoisted Tiger on their  shoulders and paraded all over the golf course PROCLAIMING him the  Messiah of Golf ( again ).

    Here in the Real World

    it was on to the second

    SUDDEN Death Hole

    only Vijay & Sergio

    Sutherland GONE

    Now on the 17th Hole  Garcia CRACKED from the PRESSURE as would have been expected if it were  him and Tiger. Sergio hit an errant Drive next to a tree over an animal  burrow while Vijay Drove his Ball long and straight. Garcia struggled  to the Green. Then Vijay took his Club in hand and expertly flawlessly  Birdied yet another hole to WIN the Barclays !!

    Praise the Lord ALL

    hail the new BLACK

    Champion of Golf

    Vijay Singh is now #2 in  earnings for 2008 just slightly behind Tiger who he will surpass very  soon since Tiger's season is Over. The only question now will Vijay  keep up this level of play (he can be somewhat inconsistent at times)  and claim the FedEx Cup, a cool $10 Million for winning it and be named  PGA Golfer of the Year for the second time.

    WHAT'S WITH THE BEER ??

    It's Vijay's brand. It  is Thailand's best Singha - Singh drinks Singha - Vijay is their  premier spokesperson and endorsement leader. He wears their name on his  shirt during Tour events. It is now the Official Brew of Choice in the  Box as a result of Vijay's success with it. Who knows maybe they will  sign a sponsorship deal with the Box after reading this. We're easy. A  case a week of COLD Singha and we'll give them an exclusive in the Box.
       
      As for Vijay THREE cheers

    Calling Vijay Singh "black" is either ignorant or racist. I'm not sure which.
