Here's betting Hootie angered the bags. Their next target will be the players. Watch for the pressure application to Nike to gently ask Tiger to withdrawl. Watch for the effort to get Acushnet (Titleist) to ask its tournament pros to boycott. The bags will attack the other advertisers of (ABC?) because they are sponsoring the offending network.

They may try, but you don't get a player to sit out the "Super Bowl" equivalent just to make a political stand like this; Tiger ain't gonna bite, and I can't think of single player that would.

The only hope the nags have is to attack CBS/USA since they are the two networks that carry coverage. And again, there's no way that either of the two will drop it; most of the others would kill each other to grab up whatever piece was dropped.

This is simply hilarious to watch...
