Lawrence Taylor Thinks Tiger Should Find Jesper and 'Beat His Ass'

Lawrence Taylor is not exactly the type of guy that pulls punches (I believe, in The Blind Side he even mentions that he created the title's term in football) or acts modestly. Although he did try and be modest during a recent interview following a round of golf with Michael Jordan ... except he said he "kicked his ass" on the course.

That discussion led to questions about Tiger Woods (naturally ... please don't bother NOT talking about it) and LT had a little advice for Tiger when he gets back on the golf course: beat Jesper Parnevik's ass.

"Listen I hope he does get back. The first thing I would do if I get back on the golf course, I would go looking for Jesper Parnevik and I would beat his ass... There is a line that you don't cross over. Not as another player because you don't know do that. (Host: Well he was the one that introduced them.) I don't care! He introduced his nanny to Tiger? We have all had nannies."

This statement, and hypothetical threat, obviously carries a lot more weight with LT saying it than Tiger. Woods is obviously in great shape, and theoretically, he carries weapons (clubs), but unlike LT, he's not completely insane.

Of course, at the risk of offending him and opening myself up to bodily harm, I'll go ahead and lob this out there: I agree with Taylor. Jesper's got a right to be upset but it's not like Elin was his relative or anything.

All that said: I think LT's statement brings up a good point: he's definitely one of the top 5 athletes you don't want to see in a dark alley after you said something that cheesed him off, right? Because after Mike Tyson, I'm not sure there's anyone that scares me more. Better watch your back, Jesper.
