Usually, I shun conspiracy theories. Unless they involve NBA referring or Patrick Ewing’s draft status. I let WorldGolf.com’s own Willie K. Wolfy hang out with the crowd that lives in secret basement bunkers and favors hand-cranked radios.
But Michelle Wie’s busted wrist while jogging incident is raising all kinds of weird vibes (and no I haven’t been using any of the stuff Andy Reid’s kids apparently favor).
Sure, it’s crazy. Absurd even … But is it possible - possible - that our beloved Winless Wonder battered her wrist on purpose? Either consciously, or even subconsciously, could Wie have taken a fall to avoid facing another one on the golf course?
Or to put it in terms that Wie Wariors can understand - a group in which I’m a proud card carrying member - could Michelle have taken herself out to give everyone else a chance to win?
This baseless theory doesn’t have to be a negative one. Wie could have lunged over a log in the ultimate selfless act of humility, as a way to delay her any-day-now stranglehold over the golf world. This is the kind of thing that often makes me declare that Michelle Wie is more courageous than 25 firefighters with medals and that subway hero from New York put together.
Sure there’s no evidence whatsoever to back up this possibility, but think about it. Even the most earnest Wie Warriors like Jennifer “I see champions” Mario are advancing the notion that this break could be the best thing for Wie.
Maybe, just maybe, Wie realized the only way she could get a break is to break something and … whoa, whoa, who’s falling now?
Personally, I think this idea is crazier than that diaper astro chick and Anna Nicole Smith’s various post-death suitors put together. You cannot help but wonder if athletes like Jeff Kent (broke bones washing his truck) and Brian Griese (tripped over his dog on the stairs and rearranged his face) are curious though. Would any other multimillionaire, corporate spokesperson athlete be given such a pass on details of the incident and whether anything’s actually broken or not (do we even know? Yet?)
Next time: Is Michelle Wie’s publicist really an alien who landed at Chicago’s O’Hare?

And besides, I think she's a bit busy writing her next book, "Tadd Fujikawa, The making of a champion (I'm sure this time)"
I just read the excerpt from Jennifer Mario's book. It says MW hates to run. Whoa. So she is faking the injury!!!

I haven't heard that Bubbles' wrist was broken or even sprained.
She does have it in a rigid cast, though. If she had an ingrown toenail she would probably need a full body cast.
Is Bubbles an actress? Who knows? Come to think of it, she did make a remarkable and speedy recovery from that "heat exhaustion" that was so severe that it required an ambulance and hospitalization.
Her alleged injury is now and forever will be a built-in excuse for any further flops that she may have.
It is also a vehicle her publicists will use to inveigh about her courage and tenacity in case she does have some fairly decent tournaments in the foreseeable future.
Stay tuned as more of Lard's soap opera unfolds.

She fell on da coconut mon.
Kick back with a tall glass of KoolAid Chris and keep floating out the CTs.
bad joke and stanley...well scripted.
Mike...nice investigative commenting.
bad joke...obsticles? how can there be no dirt in a park? Trying too hard?
Alex...Smails sycophant, thanks for teaching me a new word (inveigh) Next you should learn to use it properly...it's all about the protest (dictionary.com)
Tucker...Fitted? Grammar?
Mike...learn when to use a colon.
One Putt is clearly on some tainted Kool Aid...what's he on about? Is da coconut mon a relative of mine?
I'm sorry but it is :(
People who jog at Ala Moana Beach Park jog on the paved bicycle path.
pave /peɪv/ paved, pav·ing.
1. to cover or lay (a road, walk, etc.) with concrete, stones, bricks, tiles, wood, or the like, so as to make a firm, level surface.
ref. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/paved
(pardon the sarcasm)
There is no dirt path.
You see, the key word is BEACH park. It's on the BEACH.
If one isn't jogging on the paved bicycle paths, then they're either jogging on the sand, on the paved roads or parking lots, There are a few grassy fields (within the picycle paths), but they are occupied by picnicers or the homeless. Yes, believe it or not, there is a huge homeless problem in Hawaii.
I guess it's not far fetched to assume that Michelle, the champion that she is, was jogging from homeless tent to homeless tent feeding the poor and providing them with basic needs.
And then tripped over a coconut as One-Putt pointed out. (One-Putt could be right, coconuts are lying around)
But then again, I didn't read that "making of the something" book.
One Putt is clearly on some tainted Kool Aid...what's he on about? Is da coconut mon a relative of mine?"
Sorry Mon it was Island speaks.
When Kool-Aid comes in a Margarita mix Ron, I might taint it with a little tequila. Ok, a lot of tequila.
CHEERS!!
When do your think Bubbles and Carol Bivens will call that joint press conference to announce Lard's decision to graciously accept that 2007 season-long exempt status on the LPGA tour?
You confidently predicted that happening about a week ago, and since you seem to have an inside track as to the maneuverings of the Wie publicists, many of us skeptics figure that you might give us the skinny on that momentous occurence.
You did provide the caveat with your prediction that "you may be wrong"
RonMOn,
If caveat is also a new word for you, its meaning is in all dictionaries, as is the meaning and connotation for the word "inveigh."By the way, inveigh was used quite properly. And when did you start correcting grammar, spelling, and usage on these blogs?
Can you delete the post from "The Williams Sisters".
Impersonating people should not be tolerated on the blog.
How do you know that the Williams Sisters are being impersonated?
If you are advocating censorship, maybe you should confine your posts to Mario's blog. She advocates and practices censorship of conflicting viewpoints. Chris does not.
I think somebody was just pokeing a little fun at your poor comparison between Michelle Wie and actual champions(that is people who have actually won something)
The guy who wrote as a Williams sister is a dickhead in that case.
Since you are the embodiment of the consummate limey, you should be forgiven for your lack of perspicacity
However, you should also be apprised of the rules of discovery and jurisprudence prevalent in the colonies.
In polite company, something you British hooligans are seldom involved in, the man's name is Richard Cranium.
Well done Chris & Co. for increasing her endorsement value.
Her major performances have been magnificant so far.
Anyway, since you started the posting, just to add to it, Michelle has already achieved so much at such a young age. She was the youngest usga winner of an adult event, the youngster to qualify for an lpga event, the youngest to make a major cut, and she holds the best amateur scores at each of the four lpga majors.
Truely remarkable girl, and a great player.
Why did you post together. Couldn't you have at least posted sepearately. Didn't daddy teach his girls to have seperate opinions.
Anyway girls, you dinner is ready, so please come home and eat it.
What's for dinner anyway, hope it's nice.
What's for dinner anyway, hope it's nice.
It's chicken and beans for dinner. If you fancy Chris Baldwin that much, ask him over for lunch. There is plenty of dinner for Chris as well.
I hope Jennifer remembers that each and everytime she cashes in a royalty check.
meaning of your post, bad joke. The woman
is a degenerate.
Just a slight difference of opinion. Thanks for making my way look like genius though Booger.
oops, sorry 'bout that. :)
