Padre Matt Antonelli wishes to trade places for a day with Tiger Woods and ruins his life

Tiger Woods' awesome life, before Matt Antonelli traded places with him and ruined it all.

Tiger Woods' awesome life, before Matt Antonelli traded places with him and ruined it all.

Did anybody read Matt Antonelli's blog post from last week?  He answered some questions for the Sporting News and shared his answers with his blog readers, that's you and me.

Xt


He was asked the one person he'd like to trade places with, living or dead, and he chose Tiger Woods. 

The one person I’d love to trade places with for a day (can be alive or dead; please include a sentence on why that person)
Tiger Woods. He runs the world.

Keep in mind this blog was written on November 28th, the day after Tiger Woods was accused of cheating, had his face clawed at and car attacked by his wife while getting in a car crash that left him unconscious.  Now Tiger is being accused of multiple infidelities, wanted for questioning by the Highway Patrol, missed a Golf Tournament and had his name smeared in every gossip column.

You may be thinking, "Antonelli couldn't have picked a worse day to trade places with Tiger Woods."

But may I suggest that maybe Matt Antonelli's wish came true and he already traded places with Tiger Woods and all of this is his fault.  Think about it, Matt Antonelli took over for Tiger for one day and ruined his life and his career! 

Are we supposed to believe that it's a coincidence that Antonelli makes a wish to "run the world" as Tiger Woods and suddenly Tiger's life goes down the toilet?  Antonelli obviously switched bodies and raised hell as Tiger Woods then switched back to the body of a Padres infielder.  He must be sitting at home smirking right now, thinking that nobody would ever figure out what he had done, feeling so cocky that he'd even blog about it, nobody would figure out his secret... until now!

Think about that!

While we're all wishing...

I wish Matt Antonelli would trade places with Chase Utley.

I thought jbox and Dex ran the world.

"I'm a Padre at heart. Always gonna root for the Padres. Twenty-five years [with this organization], how can't you? Next year I'm gonna be rooting like a son-of-a-gun for these guys and for Blackie ... I'm gonna be rooting for the next general manager here, rooting for the city, the fans, everybody. I think a lot of San Diego." -Kevin Towers

Tiger Woods? Really?

You can be ANYONE, dead or alive, and he chooses Tiger Woods???

Not Julius Caesar? The Dalai Lama? Shakespeare, Christopher Columbus, Alexander the Great, Abraham Lincoln, Neil Armstrong, Winston Churchill, Leonardo DaVinci, or even John Lennon?

Tiger Woods? I question this guy’s decision making.

Question his decision making? really??

The question was from a sports magazine, Not Life magazine. lets Keep it in perspective.

by godfatha on Dec 2, 2009 6:03 AM PST up reply actions  

I, too, was disappointed

when I found out Tiger owned an Escalade with rims.

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? ◔ヮ◔

No problem

We weren’t insulting Matt, we like him, he’s one of our guys. We’re all Padres fans.

Jbox has an uncanny knack for bringing the crazies out of the woodwork.

Good show.

Matt Antonelli Trading Places w/ Tiger.

The Blog was posted the 28th, but the question from the article in Sporting News was asked well before 28th

by godfatha on Dec 2, 2009 6:21 AM PST reply actions  

It had to have been better than the 114 he shot on October 24th.
