Word to the Wise, FedEx Cup Should Bag Lavish Prize
Filed under: FedEx Cup
The FedEx Cup will be decided this weekend. My money's on Dale Earnhardt Jr. What's that? Junior didn't make the 36-hole cut in the Sprint Cup? Pardon my ignorance. It's hard to keep all those cups straight this time of year. Even a cup expert like Tiger Woods would have a hard time. FedEx is the one that has tried to buy our affection with a grand prize worthy of blaring Publisher's Clearinghouse trumpets: $10 million! If the FedEx Cup really wants to win hearts and minds, it needs to do something crazy. Give away the money. Give it charity, give it to a lucky fan plucked out of the gallery, rent a helicopter and dump 10 million $1 bills over an Atlanta housing project. Anything would be better than presenting it to a golfer who already owns a Lear jet. It's easy for me to be noble and give away somebody else's money. I should just run for Congress, only I'm not playing the Class Envy card.
