Tiger means money. He was THE cash cow for the PGA. The ONLY cash cow for the PGA. It’s salacious, it’s stupid, so it will be covered — because PEOPLE WATCH it.

If the bulk of people didn’t care, didn’t watch, it wouldn’t be there. I concur. I care about Tiger like I care about the Olympics. Not.

He’s sorry he got caught, that’s all he’s sorry for.

He’s a sorry excuse for a human being. Yes, he’s good at golf. Yes he was pushed from the time he was a baby by his father to do one thing — play golf.

Perhaps his father was a bad influence on him, we know his father cheated on his mother.

Perhaps he never had a real childhood and this was his way of making up for it.

Whatever. None of those are excuses for the way he treated his wife and children.

Yesterday, I had occasion to take a cab. As soon as I got in, the driver started regaling me about how Tiger shouldn’t have to apologize. “He made only one mistake,” and, in the cabbie’s view, love means forgive a mistake. In fact, this cabbie said, “If you can’t forgive your spouse, you never really loved in the first place.”

Sheesh.

Anyway, I’m sick of these pop starts and mega-athletes. They are on such power trips. And the idiotic so-called newscasters go along with telling such stories over and over again. The time the media spend on this crap means that other stories — REAL NEWS are not being covered.

Fred hit the bulls eye………..NEWSGASM’S. When I set down in the evening wanting to see/hear the news, I don’t want to see geraldo and his ugly ass face talking about what he thinks should be in the Tiger Woods groveling tell all.. Screw you geraldo!! I was dissapointed that the Marines didn’t shoot your ass when they threw you out of Iraq for drawing in the sand with a camera running.
The news media should stay out of the mans life except when he plays golf and that’s that. It’s over, let it die, and go back to reporting stuff that really means something to the people. The ones he should have apologized to was his sponsors and the kids that was looking up to him
in admiration. How much has michael jordan(the prick) contributed to the youth of America? Not much, if you want to count wearing/buying hanes underware. I say let it go.

I don’t give a god damn about Tiger or his mommy. I care about our country and what this self admitted Muslim president and his scum sucking cronies are doing to America. Open your eyes people, these socialist pigs are hell bent on trashing the greatest country in the world. THATS THE PROBLEM WITH AMERICANS TODAY,THEY PUT MORE PRIORITY ON THEIR SPORTS HEROES. HOPEFULLY BEFORE THE SHIT HITS THE FAN THOSE PRIORITIES WILL CHANGE.

I didn’t watch, or read, his babbling. I think he DID owe a couple of folks an apology; he didn’t place himself on that pedestal. Any role model has a wee bit of personal responsibility to those that look up to them, and should certainly feel an obligation to make things right with those that do admire and emulate them.

As to the value we place on those that can play a game well, or lie skillfully (actors), it is indeed sickening. The folks that actually are good role models are few and far between.

One thing about Tiger folks and that he greatly admires the US Military. His father was a retired Army Special Forces Colonel. You didn’t hear much about his speech he gave during Obama’s inauguration. Reason was he praised the military, not Obama. It was said the Obama folks weren’t too pleased.

That said: What he did was wrong but he doesn’t owe me or anyone else an apology. The only person who’s owed an apology is his wife and family.

Spot on as usual Fred. There are more important things in life than wondering what these celebs are doing in their spare time. I didn’t really dedicate much time to this topic myself. The only thing I gleaned from his speech was that he must have had a conservative write his mea culpa talking about personal responsibility, ownership of his problems, and no one deserves entitlements. Other than that – I heard the same thing you did!

Well said TF! Not trying to put more work on you (but you gave me the idea) check and see how many Police Officer's have given their lives in the line of duty since Tiger crashed his SUV and today. I PROMISE YOU FEW, (IF ANY) HAVE RECEIVED AS MUCH MEDIA ATTENTION AS TW WILL GET FROM YESTERDAY WHEN THE PRESS CONFERENCE WAS ANNOUNCED THRU MIDNIGHT TONIGHT! And certainly, NONE of them (or for that matter, ALL of them COMBINED) come even close to the coverage of this story since it began... PISSES ME OFF!!! ADMIN NOTE: Since this event began with Tiger Woods there have been 44 Police or Corrections Officers KILLED in the line of duty... Other than the 4 officers killed at one time in Lakewood, WA., none of the rest got ANY national attention.

Tiger needs to get back to playing golf and kick the field’s ass by ten strokes. The MSM will then shut up.
