Were it me in Mr Woods situation, I'd do what I had to do to save my family and tell the rest of the world to KMA. But then, I suppose that is why I am not a pro-golfer too. . . :smile:

Pro-golfer or not, I can't see you being weak enough to have ever ended up in his situation.

I just hate how the media makes puppets out of everyone over anything. . . :rant:

That would pretty much be my position as well.

That's a kind way of saying it.

My position, too.
Ignorance and fanaticism are ravenous. They require constant feeding.

I think, IF he manages to save his marriage....that would speak volumes of his sincerity....

I was not too impressed with the way he READ, his speech....but, I'm glad he finally is moving forward and facing the media, the slim that they are.

I personally dont care if Tiger Woods cheated on his wife.  I don't watch golf to see Tiger kiss his wife on Sundays after winning a tournament.  I watch to see him kiss the trophy. Tiger will rebound from this and continue to be the greatest golfer who ever lived!

And you know, that is the way it should be. Unfortunately society tends to put athletes onto a "god like" pedestal and then get all whacked out when they find out that they are human!  :rolleyes:

And when they start whining about "role models", I say why in the hell are we allowing our children to consider them role models? Is it fair to our children to let them aspire to achieve something the overwhelming majority of them will fail miserably at?

Hell I'd love to be a pro hockey player, but I realized early on I had to be realistic if I ever wanted to live in a house made of something more than pallets and cardboard as an adult.

Its great to support and encourage our children, but be realistic and support and encourage them to pursue a path that is going to arm them for reality and success, and stop trying to live vicariously through our children.

It's Tiger's fault, it's tiger's fault. Every one says.  Well maybe his wife is just a bitch, she so cold when she spreads her legs the refrigeration light comes on.  Maybe she married him for his money.  Now she can get rid of him and live like a millionaire, living of his back and golfing skills.  She sure didn't bring any money into the marriage.

  What really give me a pain is he got where he is. with skill.  These politians who have gone the same, has our lives and living in their hands.  He is a golfer and he is not roll model.

  Who gives a damn if he screwed around.  If the dumbasses would happen to get him out of golf, I really don't think it's going to hurt to bad.  He's a BILLIONAIRE.  THE tROLL.

Just when you thought it was gone and done, it's BAAAAACK!  :icon_twisted:

Tiger had to withdraw due to neck pain, which he claims is NOT from the car crash. . .

Sooooooooo - - - Is he oinkin' from the boinkin'?  :biggrin:

A lion wouldn't cheat, but a Tiger wood!  :biggrin:

the bottom line is, TIGER blew it!  He made his own choices and they turned out to be very bad ones....so now it may very well cost him a storybook career, a marriage and his kids....even if his wife was a bitch, he handled it in a way that may have cost him millions and millions of dollars, and his reputation is now tarnished.  It was his reuptation that was making him millions in endorsements...

he has no one to blame but himself....I think it is ashame because I really love to watch him play, and admired him.

Henry, maybe he shouldn't be married.  Maybe his wife is just a money hungry, cold hearted bitch.  Would you stay married under those conditions.

if that was the case then he should have gotten a divorce...that is no big deal, man up!...but, the way he handled this, it not only made him look bad, but it may very well cost him most of his endoresments and possibly his golf career.

The bottom line is that he's an extraordinary golfer. He may not be husband of the year, but no one should give a fat rat's arse about that other than his wife.

tell that to Nike, and Gatorade and Gillette...THOSE guys DO give a fat rats arse!!.....and this is a FACT, because they are the ones not too happy with him right now....and THEY are the guys who are making his Bank accounts nice and fat...

I like Tiger, and I hope he makes it back to the extraordinary golfer that we know and love.
