I think I get it now - Nike is laughing and laughing! Everyone is talking about their commercial - exactly what they wanted.
As Oscar Wilde said: “The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.” :cool::D
Now that I've seen it, I don't like it. I'm also surprised at Nike's decision not to drop Tiger from sponsorship.
My husband heard on one of the sports radio shows that the commercial is a fraud. It was not simply one conversation that Earl Woods had with his son - it's made up of clips of things he said over time - to and about others, not Tiger.
I have never owned a pair of Nikes, and do not intend to start now.
I heard that Tiger and Elan are in the process of working out divorce details. I hope all those flings were worth it, because he sure is losing so much. Elan will stay in FL for an unspecified amount of time, but then is supposed to be moving back home to that house she recently bought. Sure makes weekend visitation with the kids for Tiger, somewhat inconvenient!!! Yup - those flings must have been worth it.......:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::mad:
Isn't this story sad? And we have Sandra Bullock in the same situation.
What in God's good name are these dudes thinking? I guess just from the waist down.
While I want to defend all 'manhood'?:eek::rolleyes:Quote:

Grace,
THAT Earl's comments were taken out of context was the biggest 'problem'-along with the fact that poor Earl is dead.
Nike's prez was walking the course with Tiger's mom, he was stuck on her arse like a barnacle. When he was approached about the ad he deferred to the marketing director who was with them. In essence he too no responsibility for the ad-he just passed it off as not his doing.:rolleyes:
I have a pair of Nike shoes I bought 4 years ago and have no problem stepping in dog crap when I go on my walks....:eek:;)
