So, the Little Bear has been showing some interest in golf, this spring. Perhaps this has something to do with the several trips that Papa bear has already (spring is just here!) made to the golf course. On Sundays, it is common for the father-son duo to sit in front of the television and watch a white ball being hit by a club.
And then much to Papa bear's surprise the Little bear called him Tiger Woods. Not that Papa bear is a huge fan of Tiger Woods. yes, he is probably ranked the World No 1 but Papa bear always roots for the underdog (Phil Mickelson). So, at dinner the other day when Little bear called him Tiger Woods, he did not quite know how to react.
Fast-forward to a week later. We were driving to the mall and Papa bear was speeding a little bit. I reminded him about the recent hefty speeding ticket we just paid to which Little Bear replied "Appa - if you speed then I will call you Phil Mickelson, not Tiger Woods". I think Papa Bear almost caused an accident because he looked behind where the boy was sitting and burst out laughing. Not really sure how Little Bear made the association of speeding with Phil M. but I suspect that in the days to come, Papa bear will work hard and try to change this misconception surrounding his golf hero.
