What We Didn't Get From Tiger Woods
CBS Sports

To me, and many others, your'e a hero, a role model on the course, and a legend. Tiger Woods, you are the single reason I ever wore a Nike golf shirt, the number one reason I ever wore red on Sunday and a big part of the reason that I ever picked up a club. You made us laugh with your post round interviews, you made us smile with your 30-feet birdie putts and wild fist pumps. You also made us cry during the victory hugs with your Dad, and the countless moments that you shared with the fans.

There is one thing missing from you that all of us need. We need you to come back just one last year, one last month, one last major, one last week! For us it feels like you just died, one week you're winning the next you're out with an injury never to be seen again.

Other people get so much more from their heroes, Peyton went on a farewell tour and won a SuperBowl. Kobe departed by making huge entrances at every arena and one classic 'Kobe doing Kobe' game. The thing is, to us, Kobe and Peyton are nothing in comparison to you Tiger, you're who we want to be like.

We didn't get that final ride, we didn't get that last time you came to our home state course, we didn't get that last round dramatic victory on the 18th green. I know that is a lot to ask for, your health is out of your control and I know you want to be out there playing but if there is ANY way possible come back!

The thing is, we just miss you. We love you Tiger! We want to see you one more time, hit it 300 yards and know you can do better. We want to see you put on that red shirt and make us all smile! Come back for us. Come back, to say goodbye.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
