Tiger Woods, who had been known to have the painkillers Vicodin and Xanax in his system when he was arrested on a charge of driving under the influence in Jupiter on Memorial Day, also had Dilaudid, Ambien and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) -- the active principle of cannabis -- in his system that night, according to an ESPN.com report.

Morphine turns me into the exorcist demon. My head spins around and I spew all the way across the room. Lol

Diversion? He’s Tiger Woods. Why would he care about his DMV record.

I got a touch of nausea and that’s it.

And I bet you were pleased to have it administered...I don’t think it’s given any longer in ER’s for severe migraine sufferers...It used to knock those out in a couple of hours and the victim was allowed to go home.

That’d be funny if he were taking all them at the same time.

What was the “Half Life” residual of each?

Don't be asking a rational question, it so interferes with the ongoing hate for Woods, as if they were affected by his behavior more than his wife and children. People that invest so much of their lives in sports stars and celebrities deserve what they get when the object of devotion fails to live up to the image.

Yeah, isn’t Tiger worth over $100 mil? Why doesn’t he just have a 24 hour driver and car? People with a lot less dough than him have that.

He has always lacked the class of the old timers.

Hubris.... A lot like Armstrong.

I remember a few of the flame wars with the Armstrong acolytes here. They got quiet in a hurry when the media couldn't cover for him any more. I don't think Woods ever had more than a few defenders around here.

Depends on the test or machine but the Opi and Bzo wouldn’t read after 3 or 4 days. The weed, 28 to 45 days.

Tiger was probably using all substances that day. It’s what junkies do.

Smoking weed. On top of Vicodin and Xanax.

...not to mention sleeping medication (Ambien®) and synthetic heroin (hydromorphone, brand name Dilaudid®)...

a charge of driving under the influence in Jupiter

With all that in his system you'd have thought he'd be in Pluto.

Dilaudid is the brand name for hydromorphone witch is 2X as powerful as regular morphine.

That is the stuff they gave me while I was in the hospital when I had my first knee replaced. Every time I hit the button to administer the stuff I would throw up. Also, it made me really uneasy and nervous.

How in the world did he get it and also how could he take it without knowing he was really impaired, especially while using all that other crud?

What’s really funny is all the people who are surprised that someone on a heavy 5 drug cocktail would act irrationally.

The docs don’t have to prescribe all this crap.

I got Toridol (sp?) for kidney stones.

Tramidol. Yes, it didn't do much for me either.

I only got dilauded in the emergency room. That was great stuff, but I can see how people could get hooked very quickly.

I raced from ‘75 to ‘93. Armstrong broke all the unwritten “rules” that made the powers that be look away. If he’d been less greedy he could have remained one of the 4-5 tour winners for history.
