Tiger Woods is not shy about going for it all on the golf course. Yet when the British Open tees off this week, he and other golfers likely will be playing it safe when they reach the green.
Jason Whitlock assumed that Martellus Bennett’s “Black Olympics” would cause an uproar among the groups that claim to stand against just this kind of racial exploitation. Instead, "I’m again reminded that we hold white people to a higher standard of behavior than we hold ourselves."

ST. LOUIS | OK, start with some blunt honesty because that’s how Zack Greinke likes it: Greinke should be starting tonight’s All-Star Game. That is no offense to Toronto’s Roy Halladay, who is getting the start. He has been a terrific pitcher for years now, and he had a terrific first half also. Not as good as Greinke’s. But terrific. “You look at the whole body of work,” American League manager Joe Maddon said. And that’s fine … except that’s not how it has been. Last year, Cliff Lee got the start over Halladay because he was pitching better. Two years ago, Dan Haren got the start over Johan Santana because he was pitching better. Three years ago, Kenny Rogers got the start over Halladay and Santana because he was pitching better.
