What were they thinking?

Did anyone see the issue of Golfweek magazine with the noose on the cover? Who thought that was a good idea? I realize Kelly Tilghman has been in hot water over her comments about Tiger Woods, but why would you stoke the fire with that image? That image is off limits, period. It is what it is. And you can't put a noose in your front yard for Halloween either ... it's just not courteous or respectful. There are plenty of Halloween decorations/accessories that DON'T offend lots of people; why not just use those? So, in essence, what the magazine did is going to be criticized, deservedly so, just as much as the initial comments they were trying to reference. Anyway, literally as I type this, I looked at the wire and saw this story. Not surprising.
