ruttinbuc Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 What he did was definately wrong. However i liked how he feels ashamed of himself, claims that he is embarrassed and made a terrible mistake, and is now enrolling his wife and himself in couple's counseling. At least he's taking the right steps and has the right attitude about it. This does not mean i think cheating's ok if you react like this, but i believe it shows that tiger woods is a good man deep down inside who just had a period of weakness where he made some really bad choices. I forgive Tiger and hope that their family can get past it. What IS bugging me though is the way the news just barges into this famiy's personal life! How is the family supposed to get past this if they are CONSTANTLY under fire from the press?! The news needs to back out of there and find something worth reporting! (and i'm pretty sure there is stuff thats more worth the time than embarrassing this sorry man 24/7) I'm sick of the media exploiting this family and others like it and manipulating people's thoughts to agree with the thoughts of the program's managers. We would hope that everything Tiger Woods from here on out shows that he is a good man deep down. The people in the SCANDAL news media are vultures looking to scavenge whatever they can on celebrity problems. The stories are being written, the presses are rolling, the clips are being edited. You would never hear a peep of it if was not a multimillion dollar business in this country. It is all about money and they will wring every dollar they can out of dirty laundry!

Dawg Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 I feel bad for his family and in no way condone what he did but come on, the media needs to get out of his business. If Joe Bob down the road beats his wife and commits adultery, would he end up in the news? Local news, maybe......national news, nope.

TBow Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Maybe it's all just a big mistake blown WAY out of proportion. Might have been that Tiger was just like Alan Harper on Two and a Half Men, where all he was really looking for was a platonic relationship (ouside of his regular life) where he could play Scrabble to challenge him itellectually!!!!..........and if you believe that, then I've got some beachfront property in Arizona for sale! :hammer1: And as for the media being news hounds playing on poor Tiger's troubles. Well, Tiger made his millions (or is it billions?) on his squeaky clean reputation. That in turn translated into million$ (or billion$) in endoresements. And where do you think that moola came from? It comes from you and me and the rest of average Joes trying to make ends meet, in the products we buy, because in part, Tiger Woods uses it, has been seen with it, or else personally puts his stamp of approval on it. And we believe it because his media managers manipulate the media into believing it. Is Tiger Woods a nice guy? Probably! Do famous people deserve the ludicrous stories and lies that the National Inquirer and the like FABRICATE about them? Nope! But once you become famous and rich on the backs and pocket books of Joe Shmucks like most of us, your life almost becomes a public domain and when you screw up (which it appears that he did royally), I can't really see throwing snowballs at the media for reporting the truth. Publicists want the media to report the wonderful things about their clients in hopes of it translating into popularity and ca$h. Then they have to play the spin-doctors when things go amuck and they try to slam the media for reporting that. Lives exposed is the price of becoming rich and famous on the backs of your fans! JMHO I hope he and his family are able to reconciliate if the feelings are genuine. But if the talk of reconciliation and the cries of "Oh I've done a terrible thing! Please forgive me!" are nothing more than a carefully crafted strategy by his publicists, then I will have no sympathy if the media goes for the throat! Anyhow, if he's got a good publicist or publicists (which I think he can afford), they're sure to turn this all around for "poor Tiger". They'll make it come across like he's the victim in all this scandal. What is it that they used to say, "The only bad press is NO press!". If that's true, then I think he made a hole in one this time! TBow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreeStandBowHunter Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I'll tell you what I think. I think she married him for his money in the first place and that she could really care less that he did this because now she can get out from the marriage and get P-A-I-D!!! She will be set for life, do you think she is really worried? As far as Tiger goes, he's a dang good golfer but I never got into him though that much. I always figured everything he did do, he did mostly to make a statement. Tiger was always far from being my "idol" but more of a "statement maker". Lastly the media - well we all know the media sucks when it comes to this stuff. By tomorrow, the National Inquirer will say that he has 10 other kids and five other wives knowing them. I also agree with the person in here that said that they will probaby try to make it seem like he was the victim. I am sure they will do something to boost his name back up - or demolish him completley. Matters none to me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBow Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) O.K. I got 'er all sypher'd out how Tiger can get over this.....dilema he's swung himself into: 1. Hire Jeff Foxworthy as his publicist (He ought'a be able to make light of just about anything) 2. Buy a hound dog (and call him 'Ol Yelled At) and trade the (now demolished) Caddy for a rusted out 4X4 pickup truck. 3. Then get Rascal Flats, or Randy Travis, or Kenny Chesney or Toby Keith to write a song about "She Got the Golf Coarse, He Got the Shaft" (alongside the head). 4. Get rid 'o the multi million dollar bass boat and book a tug boat cruise and scuba diving expedition on the Hudson River (that's just for pennance) 5. Start endorsing Coors Light or Bud Light during the Super Bowl commercials (Man you got'ta love and laugh at those things. They're just funny) 6. Do some public endorsements promoting the NRA and make a substantial gift to the anti-PETA campaign. Now I can't guarantee anything, but if he follows 'ol TBows 6 steps to continued success, he might, and I repeat, just might pop himself out'ta this here quagmired media sandtrap he's hostessed himself into!

elkoholic Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 The view from here is that maybe people will write letters to Nike and all the other companies giving him multimillion dollar endorsements and they will drop him like the dung he is. Then, maybe those companies can afford to lower the prices on their products so that the average wage earner can afford them. Maybe, they will even move their manufacturing plants back to the United States so that the workers here can get off unemployment. We tend to elevate our court jesters, entertainers and sports figures if you will, to a god like status where they are grossly overpaid for what they produce. With their status comes the sacrifice of a private life and the need to live up to image the public has of them. Tiger did not make a mistake, he made a choice (multiple times?) and there should be a consequence for that choice. That is what makes this story news worthy. The public needs to know when the court jesters misbehave, that way they can decide whether to buy products "endorsed" by the jesters or send their business elsewhere.

TBow Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Here's a twist nobody has caught on to yet: Speculation is, that when his wife confronted him about his "indescretions", she beat him alngside the head with a golf club. Now hypothetically, if the shoe was on the other foot, and the jilted and faithful husband found that his wife was cheating, and he physically abused her, he would in all probability, be chastized by virtually every faction of society and specific interest groups and likely charged and jailed. Ya I know the concenous is that Tiger was a cheat and doesn't appear to be up front with his fans and friends and family about it, but I see a larger picture emerging that double standards apply. If we truly believe in equality, then soft soaping abuse in regards to gender consideration, is hypocritical. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to support the cheating husband here (Tiger). But there are basic fundamental rights and fair play that are being neglected here. It's like saying that the right to bear arms is only applicable at cetrain times and for certain people. Or that the basic right to freedom of speech is only valid if the general masses like the message. It's either all or nothing. Why has the media or interest groups not even made mention of this? IMHO it's just because the fairer sex beat up on the macho symbol and most people are thinking, "Looks good on the cheating so and so!". But I've had this equality message bombarded at me since I was a boy and I'm not liking the message that this case sends. If you are a supporter of equality and a crusader against spousal abuse, then I'm afraid you have to elude to the fact that the jilted wife in this case was not only wrong, but criminally liable. The only reason that she is still walking around without handcuffs, is because the husband kept his mouth shut. Like Walter Cronkite would have said, "And that's the way it is. December 4th, 2009.".

AaronS Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I heard on the radio that Tiger offered his wife $55 million to stay for 2 years and $80 million to stay for 7. Heck for that money, I'll be his wife. :clown: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungry hunter Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 My 2 cents is "It is accepted behavior and practice among the rich, all they do is have kids and divorce, remarry and have more kids". I have always said I would rather be poor and happy then rich then misreable. If he had excellent communication skills with his wife none of this would have happened. Lets get on with other more worthy news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
