THIS WEEK’S RECAP…
Superstar of the Week: Tiger Woods
On Monday, despite some stumbles late, Tiger Woods scored a huge victory at the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines in San Diego. The victory was Woods’ first win of 2013 and Woods’ 75th career victory - placing him only seven wins behind Sam Snead on the all-time wins list. While Woods’ victory by four strokes over the nearest competitor was impressive enough to start the “Is Tiger Woods back?” talk early, the real story for me is that Tiger Woods is playing the game of love again. Not only is he playing, he is playing to win.
Tiger Woods is reportedly dating Olympic skier and smoking hot babe Lindsey Vonn. Woods bonded with Vonn over a love of skiing in November. Neither has officially confirmed the rumors amidst additional rumors that Woods was trying to rekindle a relationship with his ex-wife Elin Nordegren. In any case, Tiger Woods finally realized he could do better than Waffle House waitresses, strippers, or porn stars. Good for him. Also, congrats on the win at Torrey Pines.
Jerk of the Week: Hulk Hogan
Seriously, Hulk. I mean, really. Really? It is fun to joke about Hulk Hogan and his perceived love for his daughter based on Hulk’s marriage to a clone of his daughter. It is funny to joke about it based on how overly protective Hogan is of his daughter on television or how heartbroken he appears when she kisses another man on TV. It is joking all in fun. Then, Hulk Hogan as to tweet creepy pictures like this…

| Next week, Hogan's going tweet a pic of Brooke's chest and say "Motorboatin'" |
Hulk Hogan cannot post pictures with captions like that. It is creepy. It is wrong. It is West Virginia wrong! Considering that Hogan has tweeted congrats to guys for bedding his daughter and pictures lurk online of Hogan applying suntan lotion to Brooke in places the sun is not going to reach, the assumption of Hogan’s morbid and horrific fascination with his daughter only gains more momentum with every inappropriate tweet like this. Come on, Hulk! If Hogan really knew best, he would stop tweeting, stop appearing on TV, and go off into the sunset.
Babe of the Week: Beyoncé
A Melancholy Happy Trails to… 30 Rock
On Thursday night, the final episodes of 30 Rock will air on NBC. For seven seasons and 138 episodes, a small amount of Americans tuned in weekly to enjoy the wackiness found behind the scenes of NBC and the fictitious sketch show TGS. From top to bottom, there was not a weakness in this incredible ensemble cast. Tina Fey’s star reached new heights, as she became one of the poster children for funny women in America while the careers of both Tracy Morgan and Alec Baldwin found fresh legs. Throughout the duration of the show’s run, 30 Rock won multiple awards from critics for acting and writing as 30 Rock tried to raise the bar on sitcom standards. I think it did a great job of doing that and the show’s influence will remain long after 30 Rock ends. While 30 Rock will live on through syndication, Thursday night is the end of one of the great comedies of a generation. Thanks for the memories and the laughs, Liz Lemon and company. You will be missed.
