Hilarious photo of Phil Mickelson on ESPN website - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Booray · 03-07-2005, 07:12 AM

You can't tell me that this was completely unintentional. Someone working for ESPN will probably get a reprimand for this, but I say give him a raise. Hilarious!

Maybe he should have used his wood...

billyball2 · 03-07-2005, 09:07 AM

LOL!!! All of the news services are running with that picture. Phil's face is priceless! After blowing a 5 shot lead, that picture makes it look like he was literally kicked in the nuts. Either that or taking it in the ass from the PGA official in the background...

goddfather40 · 03-07-2005, 09:49 AM

Funniest picture ever. I was shocked when I saw it this morning. How could AP run the story with that pic?

degrawj · 03-07-2005, 10:38 AM

lol yeah, i saw that on yahoo! in the most e-mailed pictures part. i thought it was pretty funny too.

Nimbletoe · 03-07-2005, 02:54 PM

Haha, I thought the photo Char just posted was a photoshop. Nope, that's the real picture they posted. Wow.

0energy0 · 03-07-2005, 03:08 PM

Haha sucks to be Phil, how'd you like to wake up today, and not only remembering how you lost, but see that eveyone is making fun of you as well!

Jeff · 03-07-2005, 08:45 PM

I noticed that on Yahoo. Hilarious, the looks on the faces of both faces is priceless.

crossova · 03-08-2005, 06:45 AM

lol, saw it in the newspaper the other day. kudos to the photographer

bobw · 03-29-2005, 10:28 AM

too funny !!!!!!!

lordpoopshank · 03-29-2005, 02:52 PM

This just proves that golf really is the gentleman's game

absorbentishe · 03-29-2005, 06:56 PM

OMG, I laughed really loud! That was the first time I saw it. I'm still laughing. The facial expressions are priceless!!

kutulu · 03-30-2005, 09:52 AM

This pic was actually the source image for a fark photoshop contest. Great contest.

cameroncrazy822 · 03-30-2005, 05:31 PM

That's just a case of unethical journalism. Come on fellas... all the pics we could get of any given athlete, do we have to stoop to blatant demoralizing sensationialism? I know a picture can speak a thousand words but there has to be numerous other choices that speak as much but much more eleguently. Just my thoughts. It seems like Phil is portrayed as the bumbling runner up who never can be respected on his incredible achievements alone----- only compared to the likes of Tiger or Vijhay, or Ernie, et. al.

streak_56 · 03-31-2005, 08:24 AM

I'm sure Phil is going to feel that for weeks.

bigdaddy19 · 03-31-2005, 12:16 PM

Now that's funny, I don't care who you are

liquidlight · 03-31-2005, 12:21 PM

It's debasing, could be disgusting, and completely out of context, so of course I'm still laughing my ass off! I feel sorry for the poor guy though, that's a tough way to lose.

odu_sonar_AE · 04-05-2005, 11:04 AM

That's a good one. Had no idea Golf could actually be entertaining.

d3cemberist · 04-09-2005, 03:44 PM

I wonder if he saw that..

userasdf1234 · 04-16-2005, 03:27 PM
