It took 271 days from the tear-lacking, I apologize PR stunt to today for Tiger Woods and his former wife Elin to get divorced.

It's a big story online and is all over the entertainment news. But I ask you, do you really give a f*ck? Does anyone really give a f*ck?

Yea, so Elin's poised to pick up a lofty check...maybe somewhere in the $750 million range, but why do people really care?

Well, I'll tell you.

We love drama. We love when the kings of the world (and sporting world) take a hard, dramatic fall from the top of the mountain. We just can't get enough of it. That's why we follow the entertainment blogs. That's why the Tiger divorce story leads the sporting news. That's why the details of the divorce will continue to trickle out and continue to get our celebrity-obsessed, sports-jockeying public all worked up in a frenzy.

Regardless of the story behind the story. One thing is for certain, Tiger paid a ton of money for a few pieces of ass. As a result, his golf game has suffered and now, so hasn't his bank account.

Hope it was worth it, Tiger.
