tiger woods?

[Edwina's Secretary]

I wasn't referring to Ann Coulter when I asked who was insulting. I was referring to myself. Your comment is taking the thread off course. We're talking about a celebrity engaging in conduct for which s/he can be busted and not what someone does for a living. And save your insults for someone else. I'm not impressed.

Rest assured I am not interested in insulting you or impressing you.

But if you are not interested in engaging with me, or this thread getting "off course", perhaps you should not have brought up Ann Coulter?

What is your expression about fingers pointing back at oneself?

I thought the thread to be about Tiger Woods and his misconduct.

[Medusa]

I thought the thread to be about Tiger Woods and his misconduct.

And it is. I mentioned Coulter b/c of your comment about the glee of reporters and posters concerning their misfortune. Woods brought his on himself due to his conduct outside of his marriage; Coulter's was an accident. It doesn't really matter anyhow. Going back and forth about it is tedious.

On the lighter side: My best friend's doctor has sense of humour!

She saw him the other day and at the end of the appointment, he asked her if she had 'been with' Tiger Woods. She said, "As if I would tell you." lol

He said he is asking all his female patients so he can do the necessary tests for STDS.

What a guy!

Tiger will be back. He is too important to the golfing world. Even the other players know that. All of them would take hits if Tiger left.

As to the women he slept with outside his marriage, well, he had pretty bad taste in women in my opinion. At least the ones coming forward right now are bimbos at best.

Who really cares? We forgave OJ, so why not forgive Tiger?

Who is "we"?? Nobody that I know - that's for sure.

Besides - as stated a few posts ago: "I thought this thread to be about Tiger Woods and his misconduct."

[sasvermont]

When I wrote "we" I was suggesting that he got to lead his life - or go on with his life even though "we" all know that he murdered two people.

Gezzz. Lighten up a little.

Are you trying to pick a fight with me? What did I do to you?

You did nothing and I'm not picking a fight. I'll just end it there so no one else sees it as being argumentative.

Hey, what about that Tiger Woods?

[Cinder & Smoke]

OJ - forgiven ??

Didn't we finally just put him in JAIL?

1998 with Mom and Dad


25 Jan 1998: (FILE PHOTO) Tiger Woods with his parents Kultida and Earl Woods at the Johnnie Walker Classic at Blue Canyon Golf Club, Thailand. According to reports December 11, 2009, Woods announced that he would take an indefinite hiatus from golf. (Photo by David Cannon/Getty Images)

Im more inclined to give Woods privacy then I would to semi polititians who openly air their dirty laundry.

South Carolina’s first lady has filed for divorce.

Jenny Sanford announced Friday that she is ending her marriage to Republican Gov. Mark Sanford nearly six months after he admitted to an affair with an Argentine mistress.

Another reason I would give Woods some slack, it seems he is willing to make ammends with his wife.

Letterman screwwed up but owned up to it when called on it, Ild cut him some slack too.

Oranges get cut and given no slack in prison.

[RICHARD]

Yeah, tiger!


This guy slept with a baker's dozen over the years, while he was married-
He does not owe me an apology, explanation or any kind of sob story.


This guy is an immature, sheltered kid that was able to fool some of the people, all of the time. All the people around him, including the writers who covered for him just to get 'the story' are just as much to blame.....

The PGA's cash cow is on vacation now the PGA is going to get put under a mircoscope so maybe now people will lay off of John Daly and his problems.


---------------

It has nothing to do with golf or getting his head cracked with a club-he deserved it.

It's the disrespect he's shown to a bunch of topics.

Marriage, driving, lying, cheating and being smart about things. He has groupies just like every other famous person. I could have given him a bye with the 'one skank rule' - Last time I heard, we were at a baker's dozen headed into a fortnight!?!?!?!?!

All the media, talking heads and the people on the Golf Channel are so far into TW's rear end that they probably will catch/have caught all the funky stuff that may have threatened TW's southern regions at one time.

All the famous knuckleheads who have been caught cheating in the last year are silently thanking TW for his predicament.


It makes going to South America for a little Latin Love not seem so tragic.

Yeah, I may be client #9 or 6, but it's just one gal.....not a whole fricking stadium of women.

-----------------------------------

Everyone is afraid to call it like it is.

TW is way off the scale of being a 'pig', male whore or whatever you want to call him. He's a spoiled child that was given free reign and told that he walked amongst the gods. He probably was never held accountable for any thing he did wrong in his life.

He is a morally bankrupt entity that really never gave his 'transgressing' a second thought. Seriously? People are more concerned about when he's coming back to the tour than they are about what he did.


If you found out your SO had knocked boots with 12-15 other people? First thing I do is run a pot of hot water over my lap.

I just find it outrageous that he acts so carelessly and people are willing to be so blase about forgiveness.

Look, When I was religious, you had to go to confession, ask forgiveness, get a little penance, then? You were good to go.

There's the little shame of talking to the priest and telling on yourself.

TW has done nothing, besides putting out stupid postings on his website, to earn any forgiveness from anyone.

Sit down and do a tape, Not with Okra or any of the stupid media idiots, just answer questions, look vulnerable and then we can get on with life.

Come out and take your medicine, THEN you can start to heal or mend or not
be afraid to turn your back on your wife when she has something heavy in her hand.

--------------
Transgressions?

We keep sugar coating the labels that excuse the people who engage in moronic behavior.

It's not about a married guy that goes out looking for a little R&R outside the marriage.

It's about a guy that sounds like a person without a brain. A moron-better yet? the true definition of an Idiot Savant.

If anything? Give Woods a tip of the hat for being able to juggle all his 'commitments'. He could always find work as a personal assistant?

Hmm, TW is off to save his marriage and the money from his sponsorships.
He'll come back just like all the other scumbags that screwup, hide out, rehab and work their way back into our good graces.

Everyone talks about TW begin 'human' and making mistakes.....

Fifteen times over?

[blue]

Yeah, tiger!

He isnt a republican, a conservative, or a Libertarian, so TW is a free game target for the progressives, the centrists, the moderates, and the far left.

Game On!!!

I mentioned Coulter b/c of your comment about the glee of reporters and posters concerning their misfortune. Woods brought his on himself due to his conduct outside of his marriage; Coulter's was an accident. It doesn't really matter anyhow. Going back and forth about it is tedious.

Coulter brought the "glee" on herself through her conduct in her profession. She makes her living insulting people and belittling others. Politicians who pontificate about morals and support laws that apply to other and not themselves? Fair game. Preachers who preach how others should live, while engaging in the very sins against which they preach? Fair game. Radio personalities who state all drug users should be thrown in jail and then get arrested for using drugs illegally? Fair game.

I remain uncomfortable with the pleasures some people seem to get from stories such as this.

Somewhere in this thread a posters writes of Tiger Woods being "brought to his knees." Ick

There was a thread about David Letterman. He had sex with women who worked with him. At a time he was not married. A man tried to blackmail him. Oh the indignation! Someone suggested because he reported the crime it might mean he is guilty of even more heinous things.

But I believe celebrities should have some privacy in areas of their lives not related to their celebrity.

What Tiger Woods did was a violation of his family and twisted. The women who had sex with him - knowing him to be married and because of his fame - are twisted.

But Tiger Woods is a golfer.

It is up to his family to decide whether to forgive him.

And I think Arnold Palmer is the classiest guy in golf. In the sports world. Maybe in the whole world.
