Yo Tiger? 'do a Letterman; Raiders fans send AL a message; Wednesday media pulse
Now that Tiger Woods and his PR machine have acknowledged his off-course 'stupping, the "accident" has become secondary and the "transgressions" are beginning to come out in full force. The cocktail hostesses have invaded the TMZ arena; tabloid frenzy has a new face: Eldrick Woods.
Eldrick and his advisers should apply to the David Letterman solution. When Dave told the world that he'd been screwing a bunch of "Late Show" thirty-something gals, his mea-culpa trumped the tabloid getty-up and the story essentially died in a week.
Tiger could have saved a lot of this by utilizing some basic damage control and he bogied. Too bad, unless of course you love this stuff and by golly, you know you do.
**A group of Raiders' fans had some real pocket change and ponied up enough coin to place a billboard on 880. Nice words for Al Davis. Good PR idea, but good luck. Al will be AL and have a nice day.
**Steve Moskowitz is slowly challenging the "cars for kids" annoyance of the year award. Moskowitz has a ton of cash; see that's the problem.
**Mild addiction dept. "Armstrong and Getty" on Talk910 KNEW. Two guys. Funny conversation. Everything from the heart. Not outrageous and NO sound "drops", effects and explosions. What a concept.
**Question to KNBR's Ralph Barbieri: You've been pretty hard, (justifiably) on Al Davis the past few years. Why then, go "Mr. softies" on Don Nelson?
**To those who inquire why I have this anti-KNBR fetish? Have you listened? The only show worth listening to is Barbieri and Tom Tolbert from 3-7PM; everything else? Oy-vey. We'll the Niners and Giants don't count.
**Stephanie Miller show on Green 960 AM is still funny, but Miller's move to NY to join the Gotham media punditry club has eroded the shows creativity. It's good, but not as funny as its been in the past.
**This just in: KRON4's Henry Tannenbaum just traded some Fresno lawn furniture to KTVU's Malou Nubla for a dinner reservation at La Folie.
**OK, OK, Jay Leno at 10 is a disaster, admit it NBC.
**MSNBC's Chris Matthews makes Keith Olbermann look like Dick Cavett. Don't get coffee after a hangover, just listen to Matthews--that should wake you up.
**Then again, Olbermann gets paid $7 million a year and Matthews hovers around the $5 million mark. Momma, screw law school, I'm going to be an annoying cable host.
**So much for the drought stories. News of a weeks worth of storms piling up the Pacific coast giving orgasms to the weather minions and delight to the local news directors. "Flooding in Marin?" Yippee!

Indeed, Tiger clearly didn't get the Letterman memo, which works best when followed quickly.
