I'm amazed that this subject hasn't been opened here yet because everybody knows who Tiger is. His public persona is, apparently, different than his private although his private is rapidly becoming public. (Add or drop a letter in that last sentence here or there and it's kinda funny).
What does everybody think about this?
My thinking is, as of today, that his sponsorships might begin to suffer a bit. MSN had a headline that said that his list of mistresses keeps growing. Right or wrong I think he was a dope to go as far down this road as the headlines indicate. Not that he will ever, for the rest of his life, experience a day when he won't have enough cash in his pocket to walk in and buy a Buick. He has been extremely smart about managing his money. But, when the wife gets tired of all the exposure.....what then. I understand that she is already having her lawyer re-write the pre-nup. I can't imagine he'd be stoopid enough to sign on for that, especially now that the landslide has begun. Plus, I read that Elin (I think that's his wife's name) has a deal in the works for him to pay her $5mil to stay in the marriage. So even if he had just one tryst that would be, potentially, the most expensive piece of a$$ on record.
It kinda reminds me of the Michael Vick/dogfight promoter fiasco.
What makes guys in these positions do such incredibly stupid things?
-
The agreement that his wife has is greater than $5 mil, but that's not the point.
The Lovely Mrs. Schro and I have discussed this at length. I'm not condoning adultery at all, but I wouldn't have been surprised in the slightest if Tiger slipped up once while jet setting around the world and his lovely wife was at home. However, to maintain (at least) three relationships with women all over the place shows what an absolute scum bag he is.
I've always admired his golf game, but his actions off the golf course are inexcusable.
As a fan of the game of golf, I always appreciate good play. However from now on, I will root for him to miss the cut whenever possible.
It's like my cheering for baseball. My two favorite baseball teams are the Oakland A's and whoever plays the San Francisco Giants.
Now, my favorite golfers are Darren Clarke (Eurpoean Tour), Stewart Cink (He's a SBG) and whoever is head-to-head with Tiger Woods.

That's exactly how I feel about it. A one-night stand in a moment of weakness is one thing, but there's no excuse for these long-term relationships. I don't understand why these rich celebritites are so stupid; surely they must know that these things are always found out in the end, and they never end well. It can be hard to say no, but they need to make sure they don't put themselves into compromising situations in the first place.
I think part of the problem may be accumulating such wealth at such a young age. He can buy anything he wants at any time and there's really nothing to strive for in that respect. So I suppose it's human nature to want what we can't have, so perhaps the challenge of trying to get away with something you shouldn't is part of the attraction.
-
As we probably all know, when we start thinking with the little head instead of the big head. we tend to get ourselves in a lot of trouble. In Tiger Woods case, a lot of very expensive trouble.

Well one explanation I heard years ago was that the male body has only so much blood, and since an erection requires blood, it has to come from the brain! >:D
His ability to play golf does not, for me at least, translate into any innate sense of morality--but America seems to obsess on the between the sheets lives of public figures, political, sports and entertainment. IMO, what they do in that regard, provided it doesn't affect their professional performance, just isn't important--funny ;D ;D most definitely, but otherwise--it's their life, not mine.
-
I've never been a fan of Tiger's because I've always felt that there was a lot more going on with him than it appeared. I think that he has gotten a free pass on a lot of things because he is so talented.
Even casual golf fans know that his temper erupts on the course often. I also just recently read that the "F-Bombs" fly freely from his lips..... OK if you're hacking with the fellas but not OK if you're playing in a public Tournament with fans everywhere.
I agree with the other guys..... a quick slip is one thing..... but extended relationships with multiple women is just stupid. How did he think that he, one of the most recognizable faces in the WORLD, would possibly get away with this?? Answer: A huge ego, a sense of entitlement, and with these types of very rich and talented guys sometimes the "never enough" theory comes into play.

I also don't condone cheating, but I do have an explanation that a friend gave to me this weekend that seemed to make some sense.
My friend attended Stanford the same time Tiger did and was a water polo player. She said that while he was there he was looked at as the geeky golfer kid. Sure he was an "athlete" but he didn't get any attention from the student body for it. She even talked about how he'd get kicked out of the gym by the women's water polo team. Basically, the girls weren't flocking to him like they were the football and basketball players.
Fast forward a couple years later and now he's a golf superstar and worth tens of millions of dollars. Girls are now throwing themselves at him. I'm sure he gets blatantly hit on in front of his wife. Again, I'm not defending his actions, but put yourself in his shoes. Imagine if you went from occasionally having a girl flirt with you to having several every time you enter a room with the public in it. And on top of flirting, they are straight up slipping you their phone number.
Just something to think about.

Sorry Tyler, not buying it.

I feel safe here in bringing out this particular point, that of comparing what each party brings to the table. This argument infuriates women in general but I think it to be true, never the less.
When Billy Jeff Clinton had his fling with Monica Lewinski my opinion was "the most powerful man in the world" has to pick on some 21 year old intern who works for him. Did he think for one second that she would hesitate to come clean (maybe a bad choice of words here) if telling the truth meant a book deal and who knows how much money for appearances on teevee. Same thing with El Tigre. If he had selected women who had achieved a high level status on their own and were independently wealthy and had nothing to gain from the thing going public he would have had some assurance of remaining discreet. But he picks up a pancake waitress from I-Hop or wherever and a cocktail hostess from a private club. What did he think was gonna happen? The first time they're subjected to scrutiny of course they're gonna spill the beans because they have the potential to make millions off of the fact that they got bedded by the famous Tiger Woods.
-

Heard/learned the same thing. "Men don't have enough blood in their bodies to keep two heads working at the same time. Make sure it's the right head.

This concern whether it's a one night stand or an affair by government leaders and celebrities is really a relatively recent public concern. Franklin D. Roosevelt was a "womanizer" and probably would have really had more if he hadn't been a victim of polio, Eisenhower and his driver had an affair during WWII. Kennedy--probably most of them, Clinton, Carter--though he did it in his heart, and then Elizabeth Taylor, nearly as many lovers and husbands as diamonds, the list is endless.
Earlier, many public figures had long standing relationships outside their wedding beds and no one, particularly the press, thought much of it. There is the famous case of King Edward VII's last mistress, Alice Keppel, who visited his death bed at the King's request. Camilla Bowes, second wife of Prince Charles was her great-granddaughter and there is of course the question of her relationship to Charles during his marriage to Diana! Is this relationship DNA mandated? >:D.
I have always failed to understand why marital fidelity among government leaders and other celebrities became so important in the late 20th century America. It strikes me as leaning toward an unhealthy voyeurism on the part of society as a whole. Europeans, until recently, didn't care at all. Perhaps our Puritan forefathers are reaching forward from the grave, or maybe the news media really just has to fill time in broadcasting and inches in print--and there is a relatively finite matter of real substantial news. Whatever, it has led to hypocrisy by our society as a whole and IMO serves no useful purpose. I found this quote, "Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo" H.G. Wells and I think it may fit many of the most shrill advocates of this Puritan voyeur mentality. Think how many times those who have preached "family values" have later come to grief as their own transgressions are revealed. Activities between consenting adults isn't news--it might even be the way nature intended to keep our gene pool varied.
-
Sorry Tyler, not buying it.
Not buying that it happens? Or not buying that it would be a tough issue to deal with and be faithful at the same time?
-
How about the HIV/AIDS question in this day and age. Condoms, yes I know but how many bareback riders are there out there. One of the benefits of remaining faithful to each other.

A friend of mine said something similar to this. I think there is some validity to it, but again -- a slip-up in a moment of weakness is one thing, but a three year affair is quite another. You'd think that when the moment of passion had passed that common sense would prevail. He's one of the wealthiest and most recognizable men in the world; things like this can only end badly. And it's not like he didn't have a perfectly hot wife to go home to. I mean, I can sort of understand why FDR went looking elsewhere. Tiger, not so much. >:D

It's hard to understand human sexual appetites--I mean Princess Di if nothing else was one fine example of female sexuality in my book--those legs, oh my--but I have to stop or the Mods will zap me. Then that old horse Camilla--she's got to have some really good stuff to get around her looks--maybe Charlie likes it dark all the time--and w/ her wrinkles it's a good option. >:D

When you say "put yourself in his shoes", it's almost as if it's excusable (yes, I know you said you don't condone cheating...sorry, that's just how I read it). I'm sorry, Tiger made a commitment to his wife, and his spit on it with at least three different women.
He's pond scum.
-
All I can say guys is that Tiger hit a tree last week and women fell out of it. >:D `Dr!v #**p
-
From my perspective he didn't invent something new, did he?
-
From what the news is reporting. At first looked like he was playin a Par 3. Now looks like he's been playing at least "nine hos...opps.. holes"
Dosen't say much for what he thought of his marriage vows and even less about the bimbos who were doing him while KNOWING he was married.
-
I have to think that the girls he was doin' knew exactly what was going on, No chance of ever getting him in the boat, but I bet everyone of them has an attorney now and sees $$$ in front of them for their 'exclusive' stories. And more will come out of the Wood (pardon the pun) work, even some that just wish they had really been in on the action.
If Tiger plays golf again in the next year, I'd be surprised, probably time to lay low for a while, but it won't matter, this one will be on every ones minds for longer than he stays in hiding. Too bad, he just couldn't keep "The Little General" in his pants where it belonged. A great golfer, not much of a real man.
He should have hit this one head-on right out of the gate, instead of hiding. Kinda like Letterman did.
Now what the heck am I going to do with all these Tiger Woods Cards? I know, I'll sit them over here with the other fallen heroes, Clemens, McGwire, Bonds, etc, etc.
-
The one thing that sticks out about this to me is that now Tiger and baby seals have something in common...... they've both been clubbed by Scandinavians...... :*))
-
Tiger took vows for better or for worse .... If he were still single, then "Way to go, stud". But he is married. He dumped on a very beautiful lady. He's lucky she didn't physically end his golf career.

An unidentified woman has been transported from Tiger Woods' Florida home to the hospital by ambulance, WESH-TV reports.
The station says Orange County firefigjters responded to a medical call at the golfer's home eat 2:36 a.m. today.
WESH says video shows a middle-aged woman being taken from an ambulance on a stretcher at the hospital's emerenchy engtrance.
WESH says that a radio log shows that the patient initally refused to be transported by was later listed as an advanced life support patient.
Click here for the report.
Update at 7:14 am. ET: The Orlando Sentinel reports that Orange County Fire Rescue spokeswoman Genevieve Latham confirmed that firefighters responded to a call at the Woods address.
Latham said it was a "medical call" and that the patient "refused to be transported to the hospital," the newspaper reports.
Latham said there was no indication that rescue crews took anyone to the hospital, despite some news reports, the paper says.
Update 7:18 a.m. ET: The newspaper says a report by WFTV shows that a Cadillac Escalade, similar to the vehicle Woods had crashed outside his home last week, appeared at Health Central Hospital in Ocoee shortly after the 911 call to his' home.
The Sentinel says the tag number on the vehicle is similar to the one on Woods' car, as reported in the Florida Highway Patrol's crash report last week.
Update at 7:24 a.m. ET: WFTV quotes witnesses as saying that an "attractive blonde woman who looked similar to Tiger's wife Elin" was driving the vehicle. It says the license plate on the Escalade was only one character difference from the car involved in the crash.

A real prima donna who screwed it all up. But his 1997 MAsters win and 2000 Open were phenomenal.
-
The sound of Tiger Woods crashing will soon be heard. His life is unraveling before our eyes.
Watch the sponsors start pulling out..............

The sad reality is, some other company will pick him up as soon as Nike, Gatorade, Buick, etc. etc. drop him.
Pond scum.
-
A couple of hours ago I heard that Gatorade has pulled the plug on Tiger.........
-
I've hesitated weighing in on this because I have no interest in sports whatsoever. BUT, morals are morals. He's a man-ho. Plain and simple.
He's a grown man making his own decisions. Now he's got to live with them. Nobody to blame but himself.
And yes I agree, his life is unraveling before our very eyes. Oh well, suck it up dude. YOU did it!
-

But he's sure to get a mattress sponsor, it's a natural! >:D He'll get that before Vick gets a dog food ad sponsor, but then Vick is playing football, and Tiger will play golf and a lot of people will pay and watch both of them. That's just the way it is.

I'm curious as to why nobody seems to be saying, "It's a private matter" or "It doesn't affect his ability to do his job," which are the usual lines of defense when a celebrity is involved in a sex scandal. Why are people more upset about Tiger Woods than they are about countless others who have done the same thing?

Razor, I can't speak for everyone, but I think the fact that the vast majority of his income is tied to his persona/image is the reason. His estimated annual take is $100 million, of which only $10 million is based on his athletic perfomance. Also, he (and his late father) espoused virtue, doing the right thing, serving a "higher cause". Tiger spit on them all.
Pond scum.

You know I don't approve of extra marital affairs. Affairs, yes. Just not the extra marital types.
[rant] On that note I have to state that...It REALLY is none of our (the public) business what this man does in the confines of his home or his relationship(s). Why this is getting so much attention is beyond me. Why the death of Michael Jackson is STILL in the news in also beyond my comprehension but, I digress.
It is no secret that many a man and woman before El Tigre, in much more powerful public positions, have committed a plethora of grave transgressions. Why then, does this one mans private affair(s) garner so much vile. After all, should we (members of the public) expect the same harassment and public scrutiny should our own faults be exposed for all to criticize? Should we expect the same public out cry and television coverage?
He never claimed to be a saint. He never claimed to be a role model. That is merely an unsolicited revered position thrust upon him by certain members of the public. His endorsements, I'm certain, are not based on who he is faithful or unfaithful to but rather his outstanding excellence in his chosen profession and his ability to increase sales. Do you really think that less GATORADE will be sold because of Tiger's marital misdeeds? I think not. Do you really think the public will suddenly stop purchasing Mach 3's? I think not.
Should he come clean publicly? Should he just kneel down and acknowledge his sin before us all? Why should we feel that he owes us anything? He owes us NOTHING!
I'm in no way trying defend Tiger. Make that clear. What I am trying to do is to brings us all back down to earth. Are we not ALL members of humanity? Shouldn't we ALL forgive our brothers and sisters for their trespasses as we would expect our own trespasses to be forgiven?
All I can do is pray for my brother in humanity, that he and his wife may find their way clear of this public humiliation and if nothing else, remain civil friends.[/rant]

Todd, I respectfully disagree on the theme of your statement. Does he "owe" anyone in the general public anything? Bottom line, no. However, like I've said previously, he's made a mint on an image....an image that is now worth 5hit. He has been completely two-faced in his corporate endeavors. He has preached a holier than thou attitude, and his late father Earl had previously talked of Tiger being assigned a "higher calling". Tiger spit on them all.
I'll respect him as a golfer, but cheer against him whenever I get a chance.

I totally agree with SCHRO here........ His fortune was built mainly on his "clean" reputation..... so it becomes fair game when that reputation is shown to be fake.
Personally.... I think he may never golf again....... the fans will brutalize him if he returns.
-
I don't agree that he won't play again, it might be a while, but he will play again. He is the best at what he does, and there are too many goals out there for him to reach. He has done more for the game of golf than any other person ever has. We all looked up to him as the squeaky clean athlete that was above all the 'dirt' but just remember, he isn't the first, nor will he be the last.
There is a pretty good article (blog) in todays USA TODAY (Thursday, 10/Dec/09) that addresses some of those issues, well worth reading. The link is here:
http://blogs.usatoday.com/gameon/2009/12/thursday-eyeopener-1.html

He will play again, people will watch again, and he will be in ads--might even get some condom action >:D. These were acts of two consenting adults at a time--not on the golf green, clearly that would not only have been really interesting, but not rated for the general public. Wouldn't be surprised at all if this is how he met his wife. >:D He's a professional golfer, not a spiritual or moral advisor.
The only take aways I see are keep your clubs in the car so (1) your wife can't hit you with one, and (2) so you can always go play with friends--golf or otherwise. Personally, if he is the public face of something, it's not the reason I buy or don't buy it. I wouldn't wear a shirt sporting his name before this and not after this either, not because he's got the morals of an alley cat, but because he won't pay me to do it.
This whole business has been overdone, there's got to be other news out there. Never bought People magazine or anything like it either--just not interested in the "other" life of celebrities.
-
Judging by the plethora of gossip magazines and papers and TV shows that have been around before, and will be after, Tiger Woods, it's clear that the "public" has an insatiable appetite for titillating gossip and any kind of celebrity is fair game.. Whether it is right or wrong is moot at this point. IMHO.
-
What's the difference between Santa Claus and tiger woods?............
Santa stopped at three ho's! ;D
-
What grinds me is the fact that this spew of crap is getting headlined like it's the most important thing on the planet and everyone is glued to the idiot box fathoming what's next for Tiger, he got about a baker's dozen worth of loving on the side and is it wrong yep, is it unethical and immoral ? in my book absolutely but enough is enough. How about the stuff that really matters like Navy Beating Army today O0
.....I dont give a Sh$# about Tiger and his personal problems nor do I want to get sucked into his drama, America's Men and Women are fighting for idiots to update every five minutes what hot piece Tiger allegedly has been with, I call Bull$#@!.
-
Does he "owe" anyone in the general public anything?
No, he does not.....the other side of the coin is that the general public doesn't "owe" him anything either. But let's see if these chowderheads pay up anyway.
It's like when the NBA went on strike for back in the midst of the Almighty Chicago Bulls string of championships. I vowed, at the point where I saw Scotty "No-Tippin'" Pippin (so nicknamed for his refusal to tip $2.25 an hour waitresses) on TV talking indignantly about his working conditions actually being bad, to never watch another NBA game. My thought was "you make $20mil a year, if you want better working conditions.....BUY SOME!" So I swore off the NBA (don't ask me why I still watch the Bears?????).
After the strike was over, as well as all the caterwalling by the public about what a bunch of spoiled little b!tches play in the NBA, I told my wife that I was going to turn on the Bulls game. I don't remember who they were playing but I just wanted to see how many empty seats there would be. So I turn on the game and to my surprise it looked like SRO.
So I think it's gonna be a "how soon they forget" situation. People will, at some point, pay to follw El Tigre around on the golf course and they'll buy his golf shoes and gloves and clubs and bags. And at some point fathers will tell their sons that El Tigre is the man, and he'll be back on the Wheaties box.
It's just how we roll.
-
Well I personally don't think that Tiger Woods has done more for golf than anyone..... and in some ways I think he has hurt the actual game. I think he has done more to bring an interest in golf to minorities without a doubt but I think Jack Nicklaus was the guy that put golf on the map.
As far as hurting the game....... I've played golf since I was 16 years old (33 years). Back not too many years ago you never heard golfers screaming on the course. It was truly a gentlemen's game and there was something almost surreal about a round of golf in those days. Tiger has made it very "cool" to scream and carry on while on the course. Yelling at fans & photographers and throwing clubs are also a couple of things that Tiger has made mainstream. I;m not saying these things weren't sometimes seen in the past but they were rare.
If you golf.... even casually, and you want a good read about golf and life, read "Golf in the Kingdom"....... a great read.
-
I'm going to repeat part of what I said in a PM to somebody here...
[Rant on]
I have no idea why our great country is so caught up in hero worship for actors, musicians, and sports "stars." If an ordinary Joe had 16 mistresses, who really cares, aside from his wife/friends/loved ones? But, because it's Tiger Woods, we all hear about it on the news, and gossip rags fall all over themselves trying to get a different angle on the story, juicier than the other rags.
Personally, I don't give 2 hoots WHAT Tiger does with his winkie, or with whom. The man plays golf well...big deal. I don't revere a man or woman because they excel in a sport. Not that I don't think it's admirable, but in the end, they're all just games.
My reverence is reserved for those who do something that benefits us all in this country - the soldiers who fight for our freedom, the police and firemen who put their butts on the line for our safety, and the teachers who mold the minds of tomorrow - everyday Joes who labor in anonimity, so the rest of us can do nice things like hang out on SBG ;D
As for the aforementioned "stars"... Bah.

I vowed, to never watch another NBA game.
Myself as well and I STILL have not watched an NBA game to this day. I had the opportunity to see the Pistons, free of charge on Veterans Day. Being a Vet, it was a great gesture but I turned it down. I think I'll go watch a hockey game. ;D

To anyone I might have offended with my rant, my apologies. It wasn't directed at anyone in particular, I swear. I had just hit the point of "Critical mass" between the whole Tiger thing, Michael Jackson still being in the news so many months after his death, and the continuing debacle surrounding Roman Polanski. I needed to unload, and instead of ranting on my Facebook page (my usual outlet,) I unloaded here on SBG...my apologies for that.

I went to watch the fights and a hockey game broke out! :*))
On the serious side, though, I have heard that Tiger's sponsors are dropping like lepers' noses. Maybe he can pick up a sponsorship from Trojan brand prophylactics. I know he hadda be usin' them jimmie hats while he was out scoring a hole-in-one (or 2 or 15) so he might as well make some dough from the endeavor. Can you imagine him walking down the fairway wearing a Trojan helmet and the name TROJAN MAN on his golf bag instead of Tiger Woods?

When I heard of this, It was kinda funny & ironic! I'll Explain...
1) The rehab place where he is in South Africa is in CAPE TOWN! Now, for those of you who has never been there, let me help you... It is the place where there is the highest concentration BEAUTIFUL & SEXY women in the whole of South Africa!! Whatever your taste may, be, they are there! I've holidayd there this December, I know what I'm talking about. So, why o why did he choose Cape Town for his rehab??!! ??? ??? :/O :/O :/O >:D >:D >:D >:D <Maybe not for rehab but...
2) Is it really possible to "Cure" what he has?? Like, can you cure homosexuality?? Is his cureable?? Honestly... I'm not sure? but good luck to him... :)

Well, Cheetah announced he's returning to competitive golf at the Masters, the first Major of the year.
I was going to watch it anyway (one of my favorite sporting events), but I now have three golfers to cheer against that weekend ... Cheetah, Paul Casey (American hating Ryder Cupper), and Sergio Garcia (whiny little twerp).

It should be interesting to see how the Tiger does in his first outing. I think I'll pay particular attention to his caddy, who has stated that he will not tolerate any abuse, or verbal, or implied actions aimed towards, his man, Tiger. Thats pretty noble on his part, but we'll see what he can really do in protecting his golfer. The Masters is a pretty high brow tournament, so I would be very surprised if the gallery got out of line there, and if the officials would even tolerate that.
As far as "Sergio Garcia (whiny little twerp)" goes, I really don't think you have too much to worry about. He chokes quite easily, and often, and hasn't ever won the big one. I think you can just sit back and smile at another lack-luster Garcia performance.

I've never been a fan of his anyway. I hope he gets his arse whipped.
But probably not....he's a narcissistic robot.

After two days of practice at Augusta, there seems to be a 'kinder, gentler Tiger roaming those fairways and greens.
Smiling, signing autographs, for free even, and tipping his cap to the galleries.
Gotta wonder if, or how long it will last.
Guess we'll see.
Don't know if I would want to bet against him winning another green jacket this weekend.

Seems that in the "gentlemens' game" it's the balls that count, and $1 + etc. are how they count them. >:D
