Bamberger is a weasel and so is anyone that supports him...please follow closely. Bamberger is a reporter...not
a participant...either as a "fan" or as an "informer." This is not a trivial point.....reporters are supposed to stand apart from the stories they report (or observe). This goes directly to the heart of their recognized Constitutional right not to reveal a source and their readerships expectation that their information is as objective as possible.
Bamberger would have been functioning as a news source if he wrote an article for Sport's Illustrated questioning the LPGAs rules monitoring abilities and citing Wie's situation as a "possible" example.
Instead he injected himself into the story for reasons, I personally believe, are contemptible. If you had a secret would you tell this person?? Sprot's Illustrated stop being about real sports a long time ago......

Wie is a great kid.
$500,000.00 for helping people...
I'm sure she will try to help more people in the future.
God bless her.

I'm a big MW fan, but lets be fair.

Paula and Annika didn't get as much money as Michelle.
Also Annika is Swedish, so she is no more obligated to help Katrina victims than any other disaster anywhere else.

Also, Paula is a rookie, she's just getting her first big pay cheques. Let her enjoy them. She has plenty of travel expenses etc. When she has more millions over the next few years then hopefully she will give a little back to deserving causes, and not just in America.

Does anyone know if Arnika or Paula (multiples wining this year) give back, and help out Katrina victims?. Michelle with zero win but she has a big heart to donated $500,000.00 and I am proud of her.

Jim, kicked out of the Wie Warrier Club?

NEVER. He's practically a leader.

and I'm also grateful for Shanks award to Michelle.
Now she can add it to her gold medals for leading amatuer finishes.

Shanks's award is even better than a win in the Evian masters, so now even her wins are greater than Creamers. Thanks to Shanks.

Hehehe ... that was a pretty good one, Jim! If the others see that sense of humor of yours, you're liable to be kicked out of the club.
