A Swedish golfer who once employed Tiger Woods' wife -- Elin Nordegren -- and even introduced her to Tiger, just blasted him after a round today, saying he hopes Elin uses a driver next time instead of a 3-iron. Jesper Parnevik employed both Elin and her twin sister as nannies in 2000, introducing Elin to Tiger the following year. Parnevik told a reporter he feels "especially sad since me and my wife were at fault for hooking her up with him."
Parnevik says Tiger may have taken his Nike credo too far and that next time, "Maybe not just do it."
Manny Pacquiao's trainer is being sued for something that's only legal in the ring -- assault, battery and infliction of emotional distress.
According to a lawsuit just filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Freddie Roach became enraged at Wildcard Gym Boxing Club in L.A., after coming face-to-face with Alex Vidal -- a boxing writer who penned a story titled, "Sick Roach Misses Conception's Last Workout."
Roach -- who suffers from Parkinson's disease -- allegedly challenged Vidal, claiming "he was not sick and that he only went to a clinic." Vidal says he apologized and said he was merely quoting a statement from boxer Bernabe Conception's manager.
Roach was unmoved, allegedly went on a tirade, pushing him "roughly" in the left shoulder, and yelled, "The next time you write about it, I will kill you."
Seems pretty tame in the boxing world, but Vidal is suing for all sorts of unspecified damages.

Jesse "The Body" Ventura came thiiiiiiiiis close to beating the living crap out of comedian Jim Norton on a live radio show early this morning -- over a political conversation that went worse than the Gulf of Tonkin.
It all went down on the Opie and Anthonyradio show, when Ventura -- a former wrestling champ turned politician -- arrived for an in-studio interview. Ventura was explaining why he doesn't trust the U.S. government -- when Norton, a regular on the radio show, began arguing with him.
After an intense back-and-forth, Ventura decided to leave and as he patted Norton on the shoulder on the way out -- Norton said, "Thanks for touching me with your f*cking stupid riff-raff Rocky Horror hairdo."
Ventura turned and stared Norton down -- until Norton proclaimed, "You're bigger than me and stronger than me ... so what?! You want to beat me up? Go ahead."
Ventura, who served in an elite Navy unit during the Vietnam years, kept his composure and eventually walked away.
A judge just decided 2'8" Verne Troyer is NOT a threat to his ex-girlfriend's safety.
The judge denied Yvette Monet's attempt today to make her temporary restraining order against Verne permanent -- thanks to attorney Ed McPherson -- which means there's no longer a restraining order in place against the actor.
It didn't take long before someone used the Tiger Woods crash to cash in -- betcha didn't think it would be an AIRLINE COMPANY!?!?!?
Spirit Airlines -- a discount carrier based out of Florida -- is running an ad on their website featuring an animated tiger (the animal) crashing an SUV into a fire hydrant -- sound familiar?
After the animation, a graphic pops up promoting their "Eye of the Tiger Sale" -- with fares starting at $9.
Sure, sounds like a good deal -- if you like your airline using a CRASH to promote itself!
Tiger Woods was driving crazy before hitting the fire hydrant.
A diagram in the official police report shows Tiger was driving so erratically, he drove over bushes and into some hedges before hitting the hydrant and ultimately the tree.
According to the police report, it'll cost $3,000 to repair the hydrant and $200 for the tree and sod.
The report also states that it took 30 minutes for officers to arrive to the scene from the time of the crash.
The report shows that Tiger -- who wasn't wearing his seat belt at the time -- caused $8,000 worth of damage to his Cadillac Escalade -- check out the photos taken by the cops.
