I remembet that Nike PC Ad and had the barf bag out. I heard similiar stories about what a jerk Tiger’s caddie is but two huge ego jerks together make a great “pair”.
‘fabrication of America’s sports heroes’
Sad that America puts athletes up as heroes. Clearly, we are the real frauds.
These morons are making me sympathetic again towards Woods. I couldn’t care less about his personal life and as long as Woods and his wife are not brawling all the time, I think the state of FL should leave them alone. Having a fight now and then is hardly unusual for couples.
It is pretty lame to start piling on Tiger. Of course he is human. I pray for him and his family to work out these issues.
substitute tiger with Obama. talk about manufactured hero!
They just love to build them up and then cut ‘em down when they prove to be human. It is all about ratings, they could give a hang for these humans except for the income they are able to generate using their names.
Whatever Woods is or isn’t, this mush from the SludgeMedia says nothing other than they think they have a gotcha story.
Because Woods had a fight with his wife, he’s suddenly an awful guy?
Tiger strikes me as being similar to the late Ted Williams in his total dedication to his craft. Nobody would seriously want to emulate Ted Williams in anything but his ability to hit a baseball. His personal life was a disaster and he could really nurse a grudge — just ask any sportswriter.
I know nothing of golf, and less about Tiger, but the passion the media has for deifying their black heroes sounds familiar.
The best thing I can conjure up about this Tiger Woods "thing", whatever it is, is that I've seen pictures of his wife and if he does not want her anymore or she does not want him I'm certainly available. She can give me a call.
So, how many of the POS journalist’s have trashed THEIR wives? Hmmm?
And with the police always looking for a charge to put on someone (Hey! It's their job... LOL...), the best advice that you or I or anyone can get is to never ever talk to the police under any circumstances, anywhere at anytime...
Talking to the Police by Professor James Duane
Professor James Duane’s now famous 5th Amendment lecture - popularly known as “Don’t talk to the police!” - has amassed a considerable internet following. The lecture, given as part of Regent Law School’s spring preview weekend.

Woods met Florida's legal requirement by providing police with his driver's license, car registration and proof of insurance, and is not obliged to volunteer medical records, video from home security cameras or anything else investigators might want, prominent Florida lawyer Roy Black said.
"Any lawyer with a brain in their head is not going to allow him to talk to the police because nothing good can come of talking to the police," said Black, who defended William Kennedy Smith, a member of America's Kennedy clan, against a rape charge, and radio host Rush Limbaugh in a drug fraud case.
Woods said in a written statement on Sunday that the accident was his fault and was "obviously embarrassing to my family and me." He called irresponsible the "many false, unfounded and malicious rumors that are currently circulating about my family and me."

The Florida Highway Patrol said it had not made any comments on Woods' medical information, an apparent reference to a published report that investigators were seeking a search warrant for the hospital where the golfer was treated to obtain his medical records.

Looks like Phil Mushnick (haha) is a typical leftard, jealous of a successful self-made man.
I’ve always been a Phil Mickelson fan myself. Maybe because he’s a southpaw, or because he and his family seem fairly grounded. One wonders what Eldrick would have done if wifey was in the same boat as Phil’s wife last year?
Oh, and just because Mr. Woods can’t compete in “his” tournament this week, why can’t he show up to watch over things? If it means so much to him, you’d think he’d have the decency to put in an appearance.
"If we're unable to meet with him, we'll move on with our investigation," Montes said. But she called the delays "very unusual, because it's such a minor accident."
Now, if the police are saying that this kind of delay is very unusual for "such a minor accident" -- then by inference and conclusion, I would say that the "charges" could only be "minor" too.... LOL...
I don’t think Woods himself has ever self promoted to do more than make money.
Being called a “hero” by the media is not something you want done, because as soon as they build you up, they will try to tear you down.
I remember Charles Barkley, who got loud and upset at even the suggestion that he might be a “role model”. He insisted that he was in it for the money, that anyone who thought he was a role model was an idiot, and those trying to make him into a role model were double idiots. It was a respectable snarl, and I thought better of him for it.
Well, Woods is in the same boat, and even more so. To start with, he *is* a superb golfer, and has changed the game forever. Plus, he too has been cautious not to be subverted to the purposes of scoundrels, namely Bill Clinton, who did everything he could to try and glom on to Woods fame like a lamprey.
By making a huge amount of money, which he has been judicious with, I might add, he understood that he is now the target of every ambitious scoundrel, con-artist and potential litigant in the world. We can but hope that he has a bullet proof prenuptial agreement with the Swedish woman he married.
I would not be surprised if “the other woman” figured that she could take him for a sucker, as she has seemingly done so with other celebrities in the past. And, of course, the police would be thrilled to be involved with busting either a big name like Woods or his wife, or both.
Yes, he is a target, and he knows it. So to those who criticize him, especially ink-stained wretch journalists, it is best to consider how well *they* could golf a game, before trying to tear down someone who has remade the game.
