Vote: Are you backing or hacking caddie Steve Williams?

Very rarely ... OK never, are we still talking about a caddie two days after a golf tournament ends. But Steve Williams is obviously not just any caddie and his former employer is not just any golfer.

STEVE WILLIAMS:  Caddie getting ripped for victory lap

TIGER WOODS:  Tell us: Will Tiger or Williams have a better PGA?

Williams, fired by Tiger Woods last month, was giddy over Adam Scott winning the Bridgestone Invitational on Sunday and he told CBS' David Feherty that it was the "best win I've ever had."

For that, he immediately got lit up on the internet by athletes and officials who think caddies should be seen and not heard.

Former Ryder Cup captain Paul Azinger tweeted that Williams"breaks the unwritten caddy rule, by talking to the press. Most don't, a few do at times when appropriate."

Even Williams says he was a "bit over the top."

But who among us would not be giddy to achieve success in front of our former boss? Especially just a week or two after being told our services were no longer needed?

As we head into the PGA Championship this week, where Woods and Scott will both compete, do you think Williams' 15 minutes are up or are you rooting him on?
