Fuzzy Zoeller suing Wikipedia contributor for negative entry

Hey golf bloggers, time to go back and clean up any defamatory comments you've made about professional golfers before the men in black suits come to get you.

I understand how "facts" posted on an online encyclopedia can be considered vandalism, but what do we expect from a free encyclopedia than anyone can edit?

Long story short, Fuzzy Zoeller is trying to track down and bring suit against someone who posted negative entries about the golfer. Just by bringing it up, he's made even more people aware of the problem.

I won't tell you what the "vandal" wrote because I don't want Fuzzy coming after me, but it's in the story linked below.

Maybe it was Tiger getting back at him for the incensitive racial comments he made a few years back that went something like, "You pat him on the back and say congratulations and enjoy it and tell him not to serve fried chicken next year. Got it? Or collard greens or whatever the hell they serve."

See, if it wasn't for that lawsuit I wouldn't have just brought that ugly incident up... Oh well.

All I said was that I hoped Wie could win something... a game of tic tac toe even.
