The case of Michelle Wie is similiar if less vulgar. I heard the guy who does D.C Sportscenter on the radio yesterday mildly ridiculing her when he announced her withdrawal from the John Deere Classic. People who understand golf know that she was never anything special but the machine that seeks to create the next big thing was determined not to let that be an obstacle. They created all this hype, all the while ignoring the legitimate accomplishments of someone like Morgan Pressel, and when she doesn't measure up they pile on as though she were somehow to blame. What a sordid business.

Poor Michelle Wie needs to step away from the spotlight and just live her life for a while. She's on the verge of a Capriati like fall. I heard Wie was doing some pretty nasty stuff during a Pro-Am in Maryland a couple of weeks ago. Such as using her clubs for...um...purposes other than hitting the ball. Shocked everyone.
