			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Masters started today, which made Nike think it was the perfect time to release this <strong>bizarre</strong> Tiger Woods commercial. Why is Tiger&#8217;s father speaking to him from the grave? And why is he so damn cryptic? I would think he&#8217;d just say, &#8220;What the fuck&#8217;s wrong with you, son?&#8221; I don&#8217;t really want to stare at Tiger&#8217;s mug for 30 seconds, either.</p>

<p><em>In related news, I really want Tom Watson to win the Masters at 60 years old, just so no one can pretend golf is a sport anymore.</em></p>
<p>The other commercial is not bizarre &#8212; just homoerotic. I feel like anything involving a male cast member of Jersey Shore is bound to have gay undertones, and I guess non-Mets fans will argue that David Wright has the same effect. Fuck you. <img src='http://somewhatmanlynerd.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I present to you a Vitamin Water commercial starring David Wright and The Situation:</p>
