That is the matter...
Funny, no mention of any divorce. And if there was a divorce, then what is the big deal? Almost half of this country is divorced..........But what the hell, while we're piling on Tiger Woods, lets drag his father and mother thru the dirt too...... That'll make you feel really good won't it?
I find it ironic that for the past 10 years or so while Tiger Woods has been in the forefront of sports, his dad, a green beret veteran, has been highly admired for his service to his country throughout his history on Free Republic but now is being maligned by you and another poster named CaliforniaCon.....
So what's next on this Tiger Woods assault? Why don't you just call his mother a "hooch whore" and get it over with..........
Boy, you sound angry (and quick to judge me). I don’t mean to malign his dad. All I know is that the package was mom/dad/son, Tiger. No mention of other siblings that I ever heard of, almost as though they had been tossed aside and hidden away. I never saw them rooting their brother on at tournaments, never interviewed. It was as though they didn’t fit in the image constructed, and therefore, never existed. I don’t know if that’s the case, but the perception was that he was an adored only child who was driven to do one thing well, play golf.
I think family members are to be valued above all others. In my line of work, I see kids who have been left behind while their parents hook up with new honeys. The damage done is devastating and permanent. I’m not accusing his father of doing this, but I have to wonder what was modeled for Tiger in this regard — ditch your existing family for the next best thing? Who knows? Neither of us do.
