      Own a Piece Of Your Favorite Athlete

      (Newser) - The good news: fantasy sports will soon be obsolete.  The bad news: the replacement is far more insidious.  Companies are currently designing stock markets in athletes that would allow fans (not to mention dispassionate investors) to buy and sell shares in individual stars and up-and-comers in the sporting world.  It's like gambling, but somehow more respectable.

      (Newser) - Few humans are likely to threaten Tiger Woods this week at The Masters in Augusta, concludes The Times's John Hopkins, with a muted hope that Phil Mickelson (last year's winner) may make things interesting.  However, Hopkins edges closest to the disappointing truth when he notes that the person most likely to beat Tiger is Tiger, "baulky driver in his hand."
