Could there be another scandal brewing for Tiger? One of his doctors has been arrested and is inked to performance enhancing drugs and BALCO.

I can see needing a certain type of performance enhancer if you're banging 15 different women...


I'm sure, like Manny Ramirez, Tiger was just trying to get pregnant. laugh.gif

OMG, I feel so old. Are guys really abandoning watches just because they have cell phones? Not only is it unthinkable for me to stop wearing a watch, I'm so out of touch that I didn't even notice this trend of cells-replacing-watches. When I was growing up (you know, back when we told time by sundial), I was told that there are three tokens of a gentleman: wallet, watch, and key chain. Gents didn't have as many accessories and accoutrements as the fairer sex, so we had to distinguish ourselves by those three items. What are the three tokens of a gentleman (or should I say "dude") nowadays? cell, manpurse, and IPod??

Sorry, I know this is totally off-topic, but it seemed the Tiger discussion had run its course. My watch is a Tag Heuer ... is that Tigerish enough?

i had my first tag when i was 18 and wore it for more than 10 years til i bought a more expensive watch. i've never really heard of cellphones/ipods replacing a watch.

Sorry for derailing the thread with the watch stuff...I just notice fewere men wearing them but maybe that's just in my circle.

Getting back on topic, reports are saying that Elin is 100% going for divorce.

Elin should be divorcin his ass!! Its clear he likes all kinds of different poontang and he's not going to change. However, sounds now like she's trying to get half by filing for divorce in California instead of where they live in Florida. Ok so they own a house in Cali...big whoop. This is where I now have an issue and would side with Tiger. You wanna leave? Fine. But don't try and take half his shit. She did NOTHING to contribute to what he has made and brought NOTHING to the marriage so what makes her think she is entitled to half? And please not the "she's become accustomed to a certain lifestyle" BS. The original prenup was what....$20 million. She better take her $20 million and keep it movin. She'll be the primary caregiver for the children so its not like she's ever going to want for anything. This is actually one of the positive things about us not being able to get married. At least I don't have to worry about this crap in a divorce.

P.S....did yall see the cast for the porno "Tiger's Wood"?? LOL...they don't waste any time.

NY Times columnist Frank Rich says forget TIME's Man of the Year Ben Bernanke. The real person of the year is Tiger Woods. His story exemplifies the public image vs. private reality seen in so many of the stories in the past year... the past decade even. As Rich enumerates: Fannie Mae, balloon boy, Ted Haggard, Enron, Iraq (and its WMDs), McGwire and Bonds, politicians from John Edwards to Larry Craig... all bamboozled us in one way or another. We bought their bill of goods only to find out it was a sham. He ends his column with a warning to Barack Obama

QUOTE
If there’s been a consistent narrative to this year and every other in this decade, it’s that most of us, Bernanke included, have been so easily bamboozled... That's why the obvious person of the year is Tiger Woods. His sham beatific image, questioned by almost no one until it collapsed, is nothing if not the farcical reductio ad absurdum of the decade’s flimflams, from the cancerous (the subprime mortgage) to the inane (balloon boy).

As of Friday, the Tiger saga had appeared on 20 consecutive New York Post covers. For The Post, his calamity has become as big a story as 9/11.
* * *
But after a decade in which two true national catastrophes, a wasteful war and a near-ruinous financial collapse, were both in part byproducts of the ease with which our leaders bamboozled us, we can’t so easily move on.

This can be seen in the increasingly urgent political plight of Barack Obama. Though the American left and right don’t agree on much, they are both now coalescing around the suspicion that Obama’s brilliant presidential campaign was as hollow as Tiger’s public image — a marketing scam designed to camouflage either his covert anti-American radicalism (as the right sees it) or spineless timidity (as the left sees it)...

While I think "anti-american radicalism" is just a deplorably erroneous and spiteful way to classify Obama, spineless and timid, although maybe too harsh, are closer to the way I see him now. I think many Americans feel the same way this columnist puts it...that Obama's campaign was similar to Tiger's wholesome facade.

As Hillary Clinton was so fond of saying "It takes a village."

It's an old African aphorism that applies perfectly to both Barack Obama and Tiger Woods. Obama is trying to work with a village of over 300,000,000 people. He's doing pretty well.

Woods is working with a village of four. He's not doing so well.

Brit Hume to Tiger Woods: Choose Christianity*. rolleyes.gif

"He's said to be a Buddhist," Hume said. "I don't think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith. ... Tiger, turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery."

*For some reason I'm reminded of those Choose Life t-shirts that George Michael wore in the Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go video. Perhaps the Rev. Brit Hume should start wearing Choose Christianity t-shirts.

Meanwhile, according to a forthcoming biography, Warren Beatty has slept with "12,775 women, give or take, a figure that does not include daytime quickies, drive-bys, casual gropings, stolen kisses and so on." Wilt Chamberlain has, of course, claimed to have slept with over 20,000 women. And Tiger's had only 14 mistresses--not even in the same league!

SC...thats cool..one less to worry about cuz I'd still f*ck him, particularly hearing now how blessed he is alleged to be in his manhood and how good he is in bed. Tiger is still cool with me. Definitely interesting about the comparison of less than 20 women that have come forward as compared to the thousands that rock stars and other entertainers are alleged to have messed around with. Whats the big deal?

Gosh terppie, I hope that you understand my posts 'bout Tiger. Just like you like mens w/ booties (which I CERTAINLY WON'T ARGUE W/) I also think that I have to somehow find mens faces attractive (even somewhat) 4 me to think that they're hawt. Tiger just doesn't do it 4 me, altho I know 4 others he's a hawt papi. wink.gif
forthemasses
Oh Tiger is just nasty looking. All of the skanks had sex with him for his money and not his looks. Heck, Elin probably married him for his money too.

The sick thing about this is once a sports figure has an edge or bad side, they become more attrative to the public. It's really disgusting how society holds people of trash in high regard.

If I see that Vanity Fair cover again, I will be sick.

I never liked him.....his squeaky clean image never fooled me. There is some saying about "watch the ones that keep their hands clean".

Yeah there is something about his face that is an issue. I don't know if its the teeth or what. He's got some nice lips and nice complexion but I'm usually focused in on his ass and he does have a nice body. But yeah...I think its his huge teeth that mess it up. He's not ugly (imo) but he's not an uber hottie.

I just hope there is no three-way tape out there with him and another guy in it because you just know that we'll all be blamed for destroying his marriage.

Tiger will finally break his silence on Friday. I'm sure many will be waiting to hear what he has to say. Too bad he can't say "its none of your f*cking business what I do in my private life" cuz I was really liking the fact that this wasn't as hyped as it when it first happened. The man cheated. Lets move on.
Joe in Philly
From what I heard earlier he won't be taking questions, so I wouldn't be surprised if his statement is very general in nature, and his wife is at his side.
mdterp01
Oh I don't think Elin is going to be there. I've got the impression she's not going to be a Mrs. Kobe or Mrs. Spitzer in this situation.

I agree. But the reason this can't happen is because we are a nation of entitled babies, not unlike Tiger himself. A private person does something and people feel they are owed an apology. I think the vast majority of people couldn't care less about Tiger's sex life, provided it doesn't involve children or animals. Unfortunately, the minority is far more vocal in situations like this. It's like when these fringe groups protest a TV show or a movie. Most people don't care about a show or movie being crude or vulgar...thinking of Married with Children or The Passion of the Christ. In fact they care so little that they don't even bother to speak on the issue. These *Helen Lovejoy*-types (Won't somebody think of the children?") feel that everybody has to share their morals and values and everybody else needs to be saved or else they will burn in Hell.

There are too many really stupid people who actually believe because somebody is a spokeperson for a product that they must be sqeaky-clean. The only people who need to apologize in situations like this are guys like John Edwards, Mark Sanford, Eliot Spitzer, et al who used their image to gain powerful positions in our government and used their postions of power to facilitate and hide their misdeeds. Tiger Woods is a f**king golfer! He rarely, if ever, presented himslef as the ultimate "Family Man". Tiger needs to apologize to his wife and family and probably his sponsors and nobody else.

Do I find what Tiger did to be reprehensible? Yes. Will I root against him? Well I did before, so nothing's changed there so it has nothing to do with his harem.

My only problem with this is the timing of the statement. Accenture was the first sponsor to drop Woods. and this weekend is the Accenture Match Play tournament. Seems childish and vindictive to do this on the Friday of that event.

*-Helen Lovejoy is the Reverand's wife on The Simpsons who is always trying to rally the townspeople against the latest cultural immorality or vulgarity.
mdterp01
That was actually a very good speech given by Tiger. I know many had wanted him to come out directly and address this but with women coming out of the bushes it seems day after day, I guess it ended up being ok timing now that so much of the dirt has come out. What other dirt is left is unknown but the man was humbled and said things about his entitlement and how he allowed fame and money to let him think the rules didn't apply to him were things I never thought I'd hear him say. Actions will be the true measure though so we shall see what happens when he returns to the game.

I agree that many people ridiculously feel that they are "owed" an explanation from a public figure. That's just silly.

But for once, honesty would be so refreshing. And I don't mean the kind of "honesty" that slams other people (poor sportsmanship is already in sad abundance), I mean the kind of honesty people point squarely at themselves.

If he were to say "I'm really only sorry because I got caught" then I would take notice. The rest is all just predictable fluff. Scripts like "what I did was wrong, I'm sorry to my fans, to the sport, to my sponsors, and to my loved ones" have been done so many times already (hell, Agassi did it just a few months ago), most people stopped listening to it years ago.

I was moved by Tiger Woods' words today. The therapeutic regime he's employing is impacting him greatly, and it was amazing hearing him narrate his process of healing. His allusion to Budhism, and its significance in his life ,and its connection to his mother, made me realize a spiritual core in him that I had never seen come to light before, at least not this lucidly. I have no idea how this will end, but this guy deserves our respect for what he's trying to do.
BoSoxRudy
I couldn't care less about Tiger Woods's personal life and whether he slept with more women than Wilt Chamberlain or lived life like a cloistered nun. His family business is no one's business but his own. But let's not forget the true reason Tiger made his statement Friday. He hopes to rehabilitate his public image to recover as much as possible of that endorsement KA-CHING he was raking in pre-scandal. The PGA Tour has no morals clause. As long as you're not a fleeing felon or something like that, you're OK to play. Endorsements are another matter, however. Whether it's real or phony (and with past greats like Nicklaus and Palmer, I think it was much more the former), corporations want a good guy representing their company or product. So Tiger had to take full responsibility and show heartfelt contrition to have any hope of repairing his public relations disintegration. Anything less would have cemented his status in the John Edwards Hall of Fame. Tiger might as well have worn a t-shirt that said, "Will apologize for food."

Tag Heuer is sticking with Tiger. Although they're using him less in countries that are sensitive to his sexual scandal, they are apparently using him more in countries like China--because, according to Tag Heuer CEO Jean Christophe Babin, "In China, by tradition, your success is measured by your number of mistresses." wink.gif

My mind keeps changing the title of this thread to "Tiger Woods: In the Bush".

I think my situational dyslexia is getting worst with age. rolleyes.gif

Wonder if Woods would be marketable in Arabic countries because of the tradition of harems, or to some Mormon sects as a polygamist, or in South Africa where the president has more than one wife...

The possibilities are endless.

Tiger Woods to return for the Masters next month. It will no doubt be the most watched tournament in its storied history. Everyone will want to see how he plays, if Elin will be there, if he'll make the cut, how the fans will react, how the players will receive him. I'll be watching. It'll be the first golf tournament I will pay attention to this year and I'm sure the sponsors will be praying he makes the cut for the weekend. Half the golf audience has left since Tiger's time away. In most instances people will say that no one player is bigger than the sport. Well, in this case...its pretty damn close.

The Masters is the most controlled arena in golf so no big surprise he would choose to return to Augusta.

Should be a good finish to the Masters today. Tiger is in the hunt and will be paired with K.J. Choi (both at -8) in the second last group. Lee Westwood (-12) and Phil Mickelson (-11) will be in the final group. And then there's silver-haired veteran Fred Couples (-7), just one stroke back of Woods/Choi, as well as some younger Americans like Ricky Barnes and Hunter Mahan at -6 and Anthony Kim at -5, and Ian Poulter at -6 and Y.E. Yang at -5. A good mix of contenders.

SNL did a piece on the commentating at the Masters. Great stuff. Whoever that guy was nailed the slow, quiet speaking. I'm not a golf fan, so I don't know much about the tournament. Sure have been watching to see what the hoopla is about though. I think Mr. Tiger has deftly put this behind him with his glib attitude towards the fans.

mdterp01
Tiger played great and showed he still has it and can quickly shake off the darkest part of his life, but Mickelson's win is the better story. His wife and mother struggling with cancer over the past year has made this a really great Master's finish. Not a big fan of Phil, but glad for him that he won.
