OK, Scoop. Lol.

This poll is ridiculous. The various questions/responses are not mutually exclusive, and yet, you can only choose one of the four options. For example, he could finish in the top 15 in the tournament, per option #3, and at the same time also end up beating 3 or more of the top 10 players in the world, per option #4. So, what would be the proper one to choose since he could actually do both? Heck, he could even not make the cut, and still end up beating 3 or more of the top 10 players in the world. See the problem?

And the poll options don't really make any sense anyway. For example, option #1 is "Will he make the cut?". That is a question with two possible outcomes, so, if you choose this poll option does that mean he is making the cut, or he is not? Clear as mud. When creating a poll, you don't want to make option choices that can have multiple answers, and yet all four poll options are questions. A correct poll selection option would have been "Tiger makes the cut." or "Tiger doesn't make the cut." That way when someone selects that particular option there is no doubt as to what they think is happening.

Calm down Bob. I understand and agree with you, but Net54 polls are never intended to provide useful results. Members here who create these polls are not required to have any special training. In fact some have been created by members whose only experience with polls is at a Gentlemen's Club.

Realistically polls have been increasingly corrupted in recent years to merely influence public opinion before an election. If the poll is honest and accurate, the media is not interested in the result.

However if your poll suggests that a third party candidate with no name recognition is projected to get 68% of the vote, you can sell it in an instant and find future work as a noteworthy pollster. In fact the last honest and accurate poll I remember was in 1983, but I can't remember the subject matter.

Hope you are feeling better Bob C ;);):D

Frank,

I'm fine, but as I pointed out, this poll can't tell you anything. At least in most other polls on here you can pick an option and it actually has a single, determinable meaning. Who knows what it means when you pick one of the options in this poll. But what really made it ludicrous is that there were two different threads purposely started about this poll topic, and both of them are useless. I purposely waited an entire day before posting as I assumed others would quickly chime in about how bad this poll is, and no one said a word. Oh well. LOL :D

Bob, you missed my point. I'm on your side. Please, no reply is necessary even this one.:D

Did the poll have something to do with the pole at a Gentlemen's Club?

FYI- I'm the one...
 
...who thinks he will beat at least 3 of the top 10 players in the world...he's fooled us before...put nothing past him...even on one leg.



And I WILL say 'I TOLD YOU SO!'
