He hasn’t been on a course in a fews days, he had just returned from Australia and an event there so add jet lag to the mix.

From that stuff to feminine hygiene products, there is apparently nothing that can't be advertised on TV.

I would hate to be watching TV with kids under 10 and have them ask their usual questions, “what's that for, what does that do” etc.

I see it coming the next time he’s on an American golf course.

Some guys just need to get a Lupron shot, whenever their wife gets pregnant. At least when she reaches the point where she's no longer available for him.

Tiger should consider this (assuming he still has a marriage).

Tiger’s beyond help. He’ll probably try sex rehab to try to turn himself into a victim.

"Barbro Holmberg, mother of Elin Woods, was admitted to Health Central Hospital with stomach pain,"

She apparently drank from the wrong cup. :)

Breaking: Playgirl rep has confirmed to two sources that they have seen nude photographs of Tiger Woods obtained from a mistress. They are “still authenticating” i.e. haggling over the price.

Post the link...

It's on Drudge. Although the website (lifeandstyle.com) is down right now. Go figure.

LOL... I know the pain of denial too. ;>)

I married a great lady that is also beautiful and fun. She’s kept her promises to me, so keeping mine to her was easy.

I love women and I enjoy being around them, but for friendship, not for sex. Heck, my wife was my best friend long before we fell in love... 38 years ago.

If I had wanted, I could have cheated on my wife every day of the week, but I couldn’t do that to her, an frankly, I couldn’t do that to myself.

All, or most men understand what it’s like to be a man, and they understand the strong drives that many of us have. For some of us, a promise, an oath, a vow, a contract, a commitment, our word is our bond... and for us old schoolers, even a handshake really means something to us.

My grandfather-my childhood and lifetime hero, (rest his soul), once told me that there is one thing that nobody can take from you, your integrity. That you have to give away and once gone, you can never get it back.

My grandfather taught respect for the ladies..... he loved them too, but he was an honorable man. Even to this day, I open doors for ladies and I make them all smile, to do anything less would be an insult to my grandfathers memory.

LOL... Having a public chat about some of this stuff has got to drive some gals nuts... to know that we’re out here... but we’re already taken. LOL

Hat tip to the ladies....

Life ain’t fair

Bubba can get caught having affairs—lying about it etc etc and gets $100,00—$200,000 per speech

Tiger gets his ads pulled

I married someone like you 25+ years ago, and only hope that my daughters will find someone has honorable as their father. Hard to do now days, though. Not as many young men around who have been taught these enduring values. (or women either for that matter.)
